And as the lame man who was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon's, amazed. And Peter having seen, he responded to the people, Men, Israelites, why do ye marvel at this man? Or why do ye stare at us, as by our own power or piety we have made him to walk?

For having received from God the Father honor and glory from a voice of such kind brought to him from the Majestic Glory, This is my Son, the beloved in whom I am well pleased. And we heard this voice, which was brought out of heaven, being with him on the holy mountain.
And having responded, Peter said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here. If thou desire, we could make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

For as the Father has life in himself, so also he gave to the Son to have life in himself. And he also gave him authority to execute judgment because he is a son of man. Marvel not at this, because an hour comes in which all those in the sepulchers will hear his voice, and will come forth, those who have done right to a resurrection of life, and those who have practiced wrong to a resurrection of judgment.

The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou testify about thyself. Thy testimony is not valid. Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I might testify about myself, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came from and where I go, but ye do not know where I come from and where I go.

If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe me. But if I am doing them, even though ye do not believe me, believe the works, that ye may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in the him.

And Jesus answered them saying, The hour has come that the Son of man should be glorified. Truly, truly, I say to you, unless the grain of wheat that falls into the ground dies, it remains alone, but if it dies it bears much fruit. He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. read more.
If any man serves me, let him follow me, and where I am, there my helper will also be. And if any man serves me, the Father will value him. Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But because of this I came to this hour. Father, glorify thy name. A voice therefore came out of heaven, saying, I both glorified it, and I will glorify again. The multitude therefore that stood by and heard, said thunder occurred, others said, A heavenly agent has spoken to him. Jesus answered and said, This voice occurred not for my sake, but for your sakes.
