< John 12 >

1 Then Jesus, six days before the passover came into Bethany, where Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from the dead, was,
Then Iesus, sixe dayes before the Passeouer, came to Bethania, where Lazarus was, who died, whom he had raised from the dead.
2 Then they made a supper for Him there: and Martha was serving; and Lazarus was one of those sitting at the table with Him.
There they made him a supper, and Martha serued: but Lazarus was one of them that sate at the table with him.
3 Then Mary taking a pound of myrrh of spikenard, estimated very valuable, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the myrrh.
Then tooke Mary a pound of oyntment of Spikenarde very costly, and anoynted Iesus feete, and wiped his feete with her heare, and the house was filled with the sauour of the oyntment.
4 Then Judas Iscariot, one of His disciples, the one about to betray Him, says:
Then said one of his disciples, euen Iudas Iscariot Simons sonne, which should betray him:
5 Why was not this myrrh sold for three hundred denaria, and given to the poor?
Why was not this oyntment sold for three hundreth pence, and giuen to the poore?
6 And He spoke this, not because there was a care to him for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the purse, and was carrying those things cast in.
Nowe he said this, not that he cared for the poore, but because hee was a theefe, and had the bagge, and bare that which was giuen.
7 Then Jesus said, Let her alone; she hath reserved this unto the day of my burial;
Then said Iesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying she kept it.
8 for you have the poor always with you; but you have not me always.
For the poore alwayes yee haue with you, but me ye shall not haue alwayes.
9 then a great multitude of the Jews came not only on account of Jesus, but that they might see Lazarus, whom He raised from the dead; because he was there.
Then much people of the Iewes knewe that hee was there: and they came, not for Iesus sake onely, but that they might see Lazarus also, whome he had raysed from the dead.
10 But the chief priest passed an edict that they would also slay Lazarus;
The hie Priestes therefore consulted, that they might put Lazarus to death also,
11 because through him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
Because that for his sake many of the Iewes went away, and beleeued in Iesus.
12 On the following day a great multitude having come to the feast, hearing that Jesus comes into Jerusalem,
On the morowe a great multitude that were come to the feast, when they heard that Iesus should come to Hierusalem,
13 They took the branches of the palm-trees, and went out to meet Him, and continued to cry out, Hosanna: blessed is He that cometh, in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel.
Tooke branches of palme trees, and went foorth to meete him, and cried, Hosanna, Blessed is the King of Israel that commeth in the Name of the Lord.
14 And Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat upon him, as has been written,
And Iesus found a yong asse, and sate thereon, as it is written,
15 Fear not, daughter of Zion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting upon the colt of a donkey.
Feare not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King commeth sitting on an asses colte.
16 But His disciples at first did not understand these things: but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written in reference to Him, and they did them to Him.
But his disciples vnderstoode not these thinges at the first: but when Iesus was glorified, then remembred they, that these thinges were written of him, and that they had done these things vnto him.
17 Then the multitude being with Him witnessed that He called Lazarus out of the sepulcher, and raised him from the dead.
The people therefore that was with him, bare witnesse that hee called Lazarus out of the graue, and raised him from the dead.
18 Therefore the multitude also went to meet Him, because they heard that He had wrought this miracle.
Therefore mette him the people also, because they heard that he had done this miracle.
19 Then the Pharisees said to one another, You see, that you are prevailing as to nothing: behold, the world has gone away after Him.
And the Pharises said among themselues, Perceiue ye howe ye preuaile nothing? Beholde, the worlde goeth after him.
20 And there was certain Greeks of those having come up that they might worship at the feast:
Nowe there were certaine Greekes among them that came vp to worship at the feast.
21 then they came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and requested him, saying, Sir, we wish to see Jesus.
And they came to Philippe, which was of Bethsaida in Galile, and desired him, saying, Syr, we would see that Iesus.
22 Philip comes and tells Andrew: Andrew and Philip go, and speak to Jesus.
Philippe came and tolde Andrew: and againe Andrew and Philippe tolde Iesus.
23 And Jesus responds to them, saying, The hour has come, that the Son of man may be glorified.
And Iesus answered them, saying, The houre is come, that the Sonne of man must bee glorified.
24 Truly, truly, I say unto you, Unless the grain of wheat having fallen into the ground may die, it remains alone; but if it may die, it produces much fruit.
Verely, verely I say vnto you, Except the wheate corne fall into the grounde and die, it bideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth foorth much fruite.
25 The one loving his soul shall lose it; but the one that hateth his soul in this world will preserve it unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
He that loueth his life, shall lose it, and he that hateth his life in this world, shall keepe it vnto life eternall. (aiōnios g166)
26 If any one may minister unto me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall my minister be: if any one may minister unto me, the Father will honor him.
If any man serue me, let him follow me: for where I am, there shall also my seruant be: and if any man serue me, him will my Father honour.
27 Now my soul is troubled; and what do I say? Father, save me from this hour. But on this account I came to this hour.
Now is my soule troubled: and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre: but therefore came I vnto this houre.
28 Father, glorify thy name. Then a voice came from heaven, I have indeed glorified thee, and will glorify thee again.
Father, glorifie thy Name. Then came there a voyce from heauen, saying, I haue both glorified it, and will glorifie it againe.
29 Then the multitudes standing, hearing, said, That it was thunder; others said, An angel has spoken to Him.
Then saide the people that stoode by, and heard, that it was a thunder: other said, An Angel spake to him.
30 Jesus responded and said, This voice was not on account of me, but on account of you.
Iesus answered, and said, This voyce came not because of me, but for your sakes.
31 Now is the judgment of this world: now the prince of this world shall be cast out.
Now is the iudgement of this world: nowe shall the prince of this world be cast out.
32 And if I may be lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men towards me.
And I, if I were lift vp from the earth, will drawe all men vnto me.
33 And He spoke this, signifying by what death He was about to die.
Nowe this sayd he, signifying what death he should die.
34 Then the multitude responded to Him; We have heard from the law that Christ abideth forever; and how do You say, That it behooveth the Son of man to be lifted up? who is this Son of man? (aiōn g165)
The people answered him, We haue heard out of the Law, that that Christ bideth for euer: and howe sayest thou, that that Sonne of man must be lift vp? Who is that Sonne of man? (aiōn g165)
35 Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk about as you have the light, in order that the darkness may not overtake you: and he that walketh about in darkness does not know where he is going.
Then Iesus sayd vnto them, Yet a litle while is the light with you: walke while ye haue that light, lest the darkenes come vpon you: for hee that walketh in the darke, knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 While you have the light, believe in the light, in order that you may be the sons of light. And Jesus spoke these things, and having gone out was hidden from them.
While ye haue that light, beleeue in that light, that ye may be the children of the light. These things spake Iesus, and departed, and hid himselfe from them.
37 And He having done so many miracles in their presence, they were not believing on Him,
And though he had done so many miracles before them, yet beleeued they not on him,
38 in order that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Lord, who hath believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
That the saying of Esaias the Prophete might be fulfilled, that he sayd, Lord, who beleeued our report? and to whome is the arme of the Lord reueiled?
39 Wherefore were they not able to believe, because Isaiah again said,
Therefore could they not beleeue, because that Esaias saith againe,
40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; in order that they may not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and turn, and I shall heal them.
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they shoulde not see with their eyes, nor vnderstand with their heart, and should be conuerted, and I should heale them.
41 Isaiah said these things, because he saw His glory; and spoke concerning Him.
These things sayd Esaias when he sawe his glory, and spake of him.
42 Nevertheless indeed many of the rulers also believed on Him; but they were not confessing Him on account of the Pharisees, in order that they might not be put out of the synagogues:
Neuertheles, euen among the chiefe rulers, many beleeued in him: but because of the Pharises they did not confesse him, least they should be cast out of the Synagogue.
43 for they loved the glory of the people more than the glory of God.
For they loued the prayse of men, more then the prayse of God.
44 But Jesus cried out and said; The one believing on me, believes not on me, but on Him that sent me,
And Iesus cryed, and sayd, He that beleeueth in me, beleeueth not in me, but in him that sent me.
45 and the one seeing me, sees the one that sent me.
And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.
46 I have come a light into the world, in order that every one believing on me may not abide in darkness.
I am come a light into the world, that whosoeuer beleeueth in me, should not abide in darkenes.
47 And if any one may hear my words, and not keep them, I do not judge him: for I came not that I may judge the world, but that I may save the world.
And if any man heare my wordes, and beleeue not, I iudge him not: for I came not to iudge the world, but to saue the world.
48 He that rejects me, and receiving not my words, has one judging him: the word which I have spoken, it will judge him in the last day.
He that refuseth me, and receiueth not my wordes, hath one that iudgeth him: the worde that I haue spoken, it shall iudge him in the last day.
49 Because I have not spoken of Myself; but the Father Himself having sent me, gave me commandment, what I shall speak, and what I shall say.
For I haue not spoken of my selfe: but the Father which sent me, hee gaue me a commandement what I should say, and what I should speake.
50 And I know that His commandment is eternal life. Now whatsoever thing I say, as the Father has spoken unto me, so I say. (aiōnios g166)
And I knowe that his commandement is life euerlasting: the thinges therefore that I speake, I speake them so as the Father sayde vnto me. (aiōnios g166)
