s, Perceive ye how
ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.
12:20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship
at the feast: 12:21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of
Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see
Jesus.
12:22 Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip
tell Jesus.
12:23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son
of man should be glorified.
12:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into
the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth
much fruit.
12:25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his
life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there
shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father
honour.
12:27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me
from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
12:28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven,
saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
12:29 The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it
thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.
12:30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but
for your sakes.
12:31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this
world be cast out.
12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto
me.
12:33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.
12:34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that
Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be
lifted up? who is this Son of man? 12:35 Then Jesus said unto them,
Yet a little while is the light with you.
Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that
walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
12:36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the
children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did
hide himself from them.
12:37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they
believed not on him: 12:38 That the saying of Esaias the prophet might
be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and
to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? 12:39 Therefore they
could not believe, because that Esaias said again, 12:40 He hath
blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see
with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted,
and I should heal them.
12:41 These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of
him.
12:42 Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him;
but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they
should be put out of the synagogue: 12:43 For they loved the praise of
men more than the praise of God.
12:44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on
me, but on him that sent me.
12:45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.
12:46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me
should not abide in darkness.
12:47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not:
for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that
judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in
the last day.
12:49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me,
he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
12:50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever
I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
13:1 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his
hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father,
having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the
end.
13:2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart
of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him; 13:3 Jesus knowing that
the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come
from God, and went to God; 13:4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside
his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
13:5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the
disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was
girded.
13:6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord,
dost thou wash my feet? 13:7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I
do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
13:8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus
answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
13:9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my
hands and my head.
13:10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash
his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
13:11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not
all clean.
13:12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments,
and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to
you? 13:13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
13:14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also
ought to wash one another’s feet.
13:15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have
done to you.
13:16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than
his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
13:17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
13:18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the
scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted
up his heel against me.
13:19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye
may believe that I am he.
13:20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I
send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent
me.
13:21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and
testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you
shall betray me.
13:22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he
spake.
13:23 Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom
Jesus loved.
13:24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it
should be of whom he spake.
13:25 He then lying on Jesus’ breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?
13:26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I
have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas
Iscariot, the son of Simon.
13:27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto
him, That thou doest, do quickly.
13:28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto
him.
13:29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus
had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the
feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
13:30 He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was
night.
13:31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of
man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
13:32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in
himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
13:33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek
me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now
I say to you.
13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as
I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have
love one to another.
13:36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus
answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou
shalt follow me afterwards.
13:37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will
lay down my life for thy sake.
13:38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake?
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou
hast denied me thrice.
14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also
in me.
14:2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I
would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and
receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
14:4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
14:5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and
how can we know the way? 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the
truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from
henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth
us.
14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet
hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the
Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? 14:10 Believest
thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words
that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that
dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or
else believe me for the very works’ sake.
14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the
works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall
he do; because I go unto my Father.
14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the
Father may be glorified in the Son.
14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another
Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 14:17 Even the Spirit
of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not,
neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and
shall be in you.
14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see
me: because I live, ye shall live also.
14:20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me,
and I in you.
14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that
loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I
will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
14:22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou
wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? 14:23 Jesus
answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words:
and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our
abode with him.
14:24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which
ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.
14:25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will
send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things
to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the
world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither
let it be afraid.
14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again
unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto
the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
14:29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is
come to pass, ye might believe.
14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much wit
