John 12:20-36

20AndG1161 there wereG1510 certainG5100 GreeksG1672 amongG1537 them that came upG305 to worshipG4352 atG1722 the feastG3588G1859: 21The sameG3778 cameG4334 thereforeG3767 to PhilipG5376, which was ofG575 BethsaidaG966 of GalileeG3588G1056, andG2532 desiredG2065 himG846, sayingG3004, SirG2962, we wouldG2309 seeG3708 JesusG3588G2424. 22PhilipG5376 comethG2064 andG2532 tellethG3004 AndrewG3588G406: andG2532 againG3825 AndrewG406 andG2532 PhilipG5376 tellG3004 JesusG3588G2424.

23AndG1161 JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, sayingG3004, The hourG3588G5610 is comeG2064, thatG2443 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 should be glorifiedG1392. 24VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ExceptG1437 a grainG3588G2848 of wheatG3588G4621 fallG4098 intoG1519 the groundG3588G1093 and dieG599, itG846 abidethG3306 aloneG3441: butG1161 ifG1437 it dieG599, it bringeth forthG5342 muchG4183 fruitG2590. 25He that lovethG5368 hisG846 lifeG3588G5590 shall loseG622 itG846; andG2532 he that hatethG3404 hisG846 lifeG3588G5590 inG1722 thisG3778 worldG3588G2889 shall keepG5442 itG846 untoG1519 lifeG2222 eternalG166. 26IfG1437 any manG5100 serveG1247 meG1473, let him followG190 meG1473; andG2532 whereG3699 IG1473 amG1510, thereG1563 shallG1510 alsoG2532 myG1699 servantG3588G1249 beG1510: ifG1437 any manG5100 serveG1247 meG1473, himG846 willG5091 my FatherG3588G3962 honourG5091. 27NowG3568 isG5015 myG1473 soulG3588G5590 troubledG5015; andG2532 whatG5101 shall I sayG3004? FatherG3962, saveG4982 meG1473 fromG1537 thisG3778 hourG3588G5610: butG235 forG1223 thisG3778 causeG1223 came IG2064 untoG1519 thisG3778 hourG3588G5610. 28FatherG3962, glorifyG1392 thyG4771 nameG3588G3686. ThenG3767 came thereG2064 a voiceG5456 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772, saying, I haveG1392 bothG2532 glorifiedG1392 it, andG2532 will glorifyG1392 it againG3825. 29The peopleG3588G3793 thereforeG3767, that stood byG3588G2476, andG2532 heardG191 it, said thatG3004 it thunderedG1027G1096: othersG243 saidG3004, An angelG32 spakeG2980 to himG846. 30JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, ThisG3778 voiceG3588G5456 cameG1096 notG3756 becauseG1223 of meG1473, butG235 forG1223 yourG4771 sakesG1223. 31NowG3568 isG1510 the judgmentG2920 ofG3588G2889 thisG3778 worldG3588G2889: nowG3568 shallG1544 the princeG3588G758 ofG3588G2889 thisG3778 worldG3588G2889 be castG1544 outG1854. 32And IG2504, ifG1437 I be lifted upG5312 fromG1537 the earthG3588G1093, will drawG1670 allG3956 men untoG4314 meG1683. 33ThisG3778 he saidG3004, signifyingG4591 whatG4169 deathG2288 he shouldG3195 dieG599. 34The peopleG3588G3793 answeredG611 himG846, WeG1473 have heardG191 outG1537 of the lawG3588G3551 thatG3754 ChristG3588G5547 abidethG3306 forG1519 everG3588G165: andG2532 howG4459 sayestG3004 thouG4771, The SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 mustG1163 be lifted upG5312? whoG5101 isG1510 thisG3778 SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444? 35ThenG3767 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, YetG2089 a littleG3398 whileG5550 isG1510 the lightG3588G5457 withG3326 youG4771. WalkG4043 whileG2193 ye haveG2192 the lightG3588G5457, lestG2443 darknessG4653 come uponG2638 youG4771: forG2532 he that walkethG4043 inG1722 darknessG3588G4653 knowethG1492 notG3756 whitherG4226 he goethG5217. 36WhileG2193 ye haveG2192 lightG3588G5457, believeG4100 inG1519 the lightG3588G5457, thatG2443 ye may beG1096 the childrenG5207 of lightG5457. These thingsG3778 spakeG2980 JesusG3588G2424, andG2532 departedG565, and did hide himselfG2928 fromG575 themG846.
