John 12:27-36 - Jesus Predicts His Death
27 "Now is my soul troubled; what! shall I say, father, save me from this concern? but for this cause am I come, even for this very concern. 28 father, glorify thy name." then there came this voice from heaven, "I have glorified it, and will glorify it again."
29 the people therefore present who heard the noise, said it was thunder: others said, an angel spake to him.
30 Jesus said, this voice came not for my sake, but for yours. 31 now is this world condemn'd: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. 32 as for me, when I shall be lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men unto me. 33 (this he said to signify what death he should die.)
34 Upon which the people said to him, we have learnt from the law, that the Messiah is to live for ever: why do you say then, the son of man must be lift up? who is this son of man?
35 Jesus answer'd them, yet a little while is the light with you: walk while ye have the light, lest darkness surprize you: for he that walketh in darkness, does not know whither he goes. 36 while ye have the light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. after having said these things, Jesus retir'd, and conceal'd himself from them.
21 Jesus therefore repeated what he had said, "I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your incredulity, so that whither I go, ye cannot come."
22 then said the Jews, what, will he kill himself? that he says, "whither I go, you cannot come."
23 and he said to them, ye are from beneath, I am from above: ye are of this world, I am not of this world. 24 therefore I said to you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if you don't believe me to be what I am, ye shall die in your sins.
25 then said they to him, what art thou? and Jesus answered them, I am what I just now told you. 26 I have many things to say against you: but I only say He that sent me is worthy of belief; and what I have heard of Him, that only I publish to the world.
27 but they did not perceive that he meant the father. 28 Jesus said therefore to them, when ye have lift up the son of man, then shall ye know what I am, and that I do nothing of my self, but speak as my father hath instructed me. 29 he that sent me, is with me: the father hath not left me alone, for I always do what is agreeable to him.
30 upon this discourse many believed on him.
