John 12:27-36

27“1Now My soul has become troubled; and what shall I say, ‘2Father, save Me from 3this hour’? But for this purpose I came to this hour. 284Father, glorify Your name.” Then a 5voice came out of heaven: “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.” 29So the crowd of people who stood by and heard it were saying that it had thundered; others were saying, “6An angel has spoken to Him.” 30Jesus answered and said, “7This voice has not come for My sake, but for your sakes. 318Now judgment is upon this world; now 9the ruler of this world will be cast out. 32And I, if I 10am lifted up from the earth, will 11draw all men to Myself.” 33But He was saying this 12to indicate the kind of death by which He was to die. 34The crowd then answered Him, “We have heard out of 13the Law that 1415the Christ is to remain forever; and how can You say, ‘The 16Son of Man must be 17lifted up’? Who is this 18Son of Man?” 35So Jesus said to them, “19For a little while longer 20the Light is among you. 21Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you; he who 22walks in the darkness does not know where he goes. 36While you have the Light, 23believe in the Light, so that you may become 24sons of Light.”

These things Jesus spoke, and He went away and 2526hid Himself from them.
