| # Chapter 12
#### 1 | Jesus therefore six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus raised from the dead.
#### 2 | So they made him a supper there: and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of them that sat at meat with him.
#### 3 | Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.
#### 4 | But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, that should betray him, saith,
#### 5 | Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred shillings, and given to the poor?
#### 6 | Now this he said, not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and having the bag took away what was put therein.
#### 7 | Jesus therefore said, Suffer her to keep it against the day of my burying.
#### 8 | For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.
#### 9 | The common people therefore of the Jews learned that he was there: and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
#### 10 | But the chief priests took counsel that they might put Lazarus also to death;
#### 11 | because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
#### 12 | On the morrow a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
#### 13 | took the branches of the palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried out, Hosanna: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel.
#### 14 | And Jesus, having found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
#### 15 | Fear not, daughter of Zion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.
#### 16 | These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.
#### 17 | The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, bare witness.
#### 18 | For this cause also the multitude went and met him, for that they heard that he had done this sign.
#### 19 | The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Behold how ye prevail nothing: lo, the world is gone after him.
#### 20 | Now there were certain Greeks among those that went up to worship at the feast:
#### 21 | these therefore came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
#### 22 | Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: Andrew cometh, and Philip, and they tell Jesus.
#### 23 | And Jesus answereth them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
#### 24 | Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat fall into the earth and die, it abideth by itself alone; but if it die, it beareth much fruit.
#### 25 | He that loveth his life loseth it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
#### 26 | If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will the Father honor.
#### 27 | Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this cause came I unto this hour.
#### 28 | Father, glorify thy name. There came therefore a voice out of heaven, [saying], I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
#### 29 | The multitude therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it had thundered: others said, An angel hath spoken to him.
#### 30 | Jesus answered and said, This voice hath not come for my sake, but for your sakes.
#### 31 | Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
#### 32 | And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto myself.
#### 33 | But this he said, signifying by what manner of death he should die.
#### 34 | The multitude therefore answered him, We have heard out of the law that the Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?
#### 35 | Jesus therefore said unto them, Yet a little while is the light among you. Walk while ye have the light, that darkness overtake you not: and he that walketh in the darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
#### 36 | While ye have the light, believe on the light, that ye may become sons of light. These things spake Jesus, and he departed and hid himself from them.
#### 37 | But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they believed not on him:
#### 38 | that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
#### 39 | For this cause they could not believe, for that Isaiah said again,
#### 40 | He hath blinded their eyes, and he hardened their heart; Lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, And should turn, And I should heal them.
#### 41 | These things said Isaiah, because he saw his glory; and he spake of him.
#### 42 | Nevertheless even of the rulers many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess [it], lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
#### 43 | for they loved the glory [that is] of men more than the glory [that is] of God.
#### 44 | And Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
#### 45 | And he that beholdeth me beholdeth him that sent me.
#### 46 | I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me may not abide in the darkness.
#### 47 | And if any man hear my sayings, and keep them not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
#### 48 | He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my sayings, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I spake, the same shall judge him in the last day.
#### 49 | For I spake not from myself; but the Father that sent me, he hath given me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
#### 50 | And I know that his commandment is life eternal: the things therefore which I speak, even as the Father hath said unto me, so I speak.
