Chapter 12
|
1
|
Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany,
where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised
from the dead. |
2
|
There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but
Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him. |
3
|
Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very
costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his
feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the
odour of the ointment. |
4
|
Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's
son, which should betray him, |
5
|
Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence,
and given to the poor? |
6
|
This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because
he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put
therein. |
7
|
Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of
my burying hath she kept this. |
8
|
For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have
not always. |
9
|
Much people of the Jews therefore knew 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 consulted 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 next day much people that were come to the feast,
when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, |
13
|
Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet
him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel
that cometh in the name of the Lord. |
14
|
And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon;
as it is written, |
15
|
Fear not, daughter of Sion: 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 people therefore that was with him when he called
Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead,
bare record. |
18
|
For this cause the people also met him, for that they
heard that he had done this miracle. |
19
|
The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive
ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone
after him. |
20
|
And there were certain Greeks among them that came
up to worship at the feast: |
21
|
The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida
of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see
Jesus. |
22
|
Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew
and Philip tell Jesus. |
23
|
And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come,
that the Son of man should be glorified. |
24
|
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat
fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if
it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
Typology:
Body of Man in Grave |
25
|
He that loveth his life shall lose 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 my Father honour. |
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. Then came there a voice from
heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify
it again. |
29
|
The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it,
said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to
him. |
30
|
Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because
of me, 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 me. |
33
|
This he said, signifying what death he should die. |
34
|
The people answered him, We have heard out of the law
that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The
Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? |
35
|
Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the
light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness
come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth
not whither he goeth. |
36
|
While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye
may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus,
and departed, and did hide himself from them. |
37
|
But though he had done so many miracles before them,
yet they believed not on him: |
38
|
That the saying of Esaias 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
|
Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias
said again, |
40
|
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart;
that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand
with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal
them. |
41
|
These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and
spake of him. |
42
|
Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed
on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess
him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue: |
43
|
For they loved the praise of men more than the praise
of God. |
44
|
Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth
not on me, but on him that sent me. |
45
|
And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. |
46
|
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth
on me should not abide in darkness. |
47
|
And if any man hear my words, and believe 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 words, hath
one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the
same shall judge him in the last day. |
49
|
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which
sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say,
and what I should speak. |
50
|
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting:
whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said
unto me, so I speak. |
