John 12:20-26

20NowG1161 there wereG1510 someG5100 GreeksG1672 amongG1537 those whoG3588 went upG305 toG2443 worshipG4352 atG1722 theG3588 feastG1859. 21TheyG3778 cameG4334 to PhilipG5376, who wasG3588 fromG575 BethsaidaG966 in GalileeG1056, andG2532 requestedG2065 of himG846G3004, “SirG2962, we wantG2309 to seeG3708 JesusG2424.” 22PhilipG5376 relayedG3004 this appeal to AndrewG406, and both of them wentG2064 andG2532 toldG3004 JesusG2424.

23ButG1161 JesusG2424 repliedG611G846G3004, “TheG3588 hourG5610 has comeG2064 forG2443 theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444 to be glorifiedG1392. 24TrulyG281, trulyG281, I tellG3004 youG4771, unlessG1437G3361 a kernelG2848 of wheatG4621 fallsG4098 toG1519 theG3588 groundG1093 and diesG599, itG846 remainsG3306 onlyG3441 a seed. ButG1161 ifG1437 it diesG599, it bearsG5342 muchG4183 fruitG2590. 25WhoeverG3588 lovesG5368 hisG846 lifeG5590 will loseG622 itG846, but whoeverG3588 hatesG3404 hisG846 lifeG5590 inG1722 thisG3778 worldG2889 will keepG5442 itG846 forG1519 eternalG166 lifeG2222. 26IfG1437 anyoneG5100 servesG1247 MeG1473, he must followG190 MeG1473; andG2532 whereG3699 IG1473 amG1510, MyG1699 servantG1249 will beG1510 as wellG2532. IfG1437 anyoneG5100 servesG1247 MeG1473, theG3588 FatherG3962 will honorG5091 himG846.
