John 12:23-28
23And JesusG2424 answeredG611 them, sayingG3004, “1The hourG5610 has comeG2064 for the SonG5207 of ManG444 to 2be glorifiedG1392. 24TrulyG281, trulyG281, I sayG3004 to you, 3unlessG1437G3361 a grainG2848 of wheatG4621 fallsG4098 into the earthG1093 and diesG599, it remainsG3306 aloneG3441; but ifG1437 it diesG599, it bearsG5342 muchG4183 fruitG2590. 254He who lovesG5368 his 5lifeG5590 losesG622 it, and he who 6hatesG3404 his 7lifeG5590 in thisG3778 worldG2889 will keepG5442 it to lifeG2222 eternalG166. 26IfG1437 anyoneG5100 8servesG1247 Me, he must followG190 Me; and 9whereG3699 I amG1510, thereG1563 My servantG1249 will be alsoG2532; ifG1437 anyoneG5100 10servesG1247 Me, the FatherG3962 will 11honorG5091 him.
27“12NowG3568 My soulG5590 has become troubledG5015; and whatG5101 shall I sayG3004, ‘13FatherG3962, saveG4982 Me from 14thisG3778 hourG5610’? But for thisG3778 purpose I cameG2064 to thisG3778 hourG5610. 2815FatherG3962, glorifyG1392 Your nameG3686.” ThenG3767 a 16voiceG5456 cameG2064 out of heavenG3772: “I have bothG2532 glorifiedG1392 it, and will glorifyG1392 it againG3825.”
