4 Then Judah Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
Then said Judas Iscariot, one of the disciples, he that was about to betray him:
5 “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?
6 Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
And this he said, not be cause he cared for the poor, but because he was thief, and held the purse, and carried what was put in it.
7 But Yeshua said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
But Jesus said: Let her alone; she hath kept it for the day of my burial.
8 For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
For the poor are always with you, but I am not with you always.
9 A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learnt that he was there; and they came, not for Yeshua’s sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
And great multitudes of the Jews heard that he was there: and they came, not only on account of Jesus, but also that they might see Lazarus, whom he raised from the dead.
10 But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
And the chief priests deliberated about killing even Lazarus:
11 because on account of him many of the Judeans went away and believed in Yeshua.
because many of the Jews, on his account, went and believed in Jesus.
12 On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Yeshua was coming to Jerusalem,
And the next day, a great multitude who had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

14 Yeshua, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
And Jesus found an ass, and sat upon it; as it is written
15 “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
Fear not, daughter of Sion. Behold, thy king cometh to thee; and he rideth upon a colt, the foal of an ass.
16 His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Yeshua was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.

34 The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Messiah remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)

35 Yeshua therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.
Jesus said to them: A short time longer, the light is with you. Walk, while ye have the light, lest the darkness overtake you. He that walketh in the dark, knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Yeshua said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
While the light is with you, confide in the light; that ye may be children of the light. These things said Jesus, and departed, and concealed himself from them.
37 But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
And although he wrought all these signs before them, they believed him not;
38 that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, who said: My Lord; who hath believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
39 For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
For this reason they could not believe, because Isaiah said again:
40 “He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”
They have blinded their eyes, and darkened their hearts; that they might not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted; and I should heal them.
41 Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
These things spake Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
42 Nevertheless, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they didn’t confess it, so that they wouldn’t be put out of the synagogue,
And of the chiefs also, many believed on him; but on account of the Pharisees, they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue;
43 for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
for they loved the praise of men, more than the praise of God.
44 Yeshua cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
And Jesus cried, and said: He that believeth in me, believeth not in me, but in him that sent me.

And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.
46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
I have come into the world, a light, that whoever believeth in me, might not abide in darkness.
47 If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
And whoever shall hear my words, and not observe them, I judge him not; for I did not come to judge the world, but to vivify the world.
48 He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
Whoever rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, there is one to judge him; the word which I speak, will judge him, at the last day.
49 For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
For I have not spoken from myself; but the Father who sent me, he gave me commandment, what I should speak, and what I should say.
