Then Jesus replied, “I assure you: The Son is not able to do anything on His own, but only what He sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does these things in the same way.

So Jesus said to them, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing on My own. But just as the Father taught Me, I say these things.

Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I speak to you I do not speak on My own. The Father who lives in Me does His works.

I judge

You judge by human standards.

I judge no one.

You could not possibly do such a thing: to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. You could not possibly do that! Won’t the Judge of all the earth do what is just?”

before the Lord, for He is coming—
for He is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness
and the peoples with His faithfulness.

His delight will be in the fear of the Lord.
He will not judge
by what He sees with His eyes,
He will not execute justice
by what He hears with His ears,

We know that God’s judgment on those who do such things is based on the truth.

“My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work,”

Jesus told them.

For I have come down from heaven, not to do My will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

I do not seek My glory; the One who seeks it also judges.

I have glorified You on the earth
by completing the work You gave Me to do.

At that, Jesus said to Peter, “Sheathe your sword! Am I not to drink the cup the Father has given Me?”

Then I said, “See, I have come;
it is written about me in the volume of the scroll.

Going a little farther, He fell facedown and prayed, “My Father! If it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will.”

For even the Messiah did not please Himself. On the contrary, as it is written, The insults of those who insult You have fallen on Me.

Samaria’s king will disappear

like foam on the surface of the water.

For I have not spoken on My own, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a command as to what I should say and what I should speak.
