John 12:23-28

23But Jesus answered them by saying, “1The hour has come for the Son of Man to 2be glorified. 24Truly, truly I say to you, 3unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 254The one who loves his 5life loses it, and the one who 6hates his 7life in this world will keep it 8to eternal life. 26If anyone 9serves Me, he must follow Me; and 10where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone 11serves Me, the Father will 12honor him.

27“13Now My soul has become troubled; and what am I to say? ‘14Father, save Me from 15this hour’? But for this purpose I came to this hour. 2816Father, glorify Your name.” Then a 17voice came out of heaven: “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.”
