| 1 | Jesus therefore, six days before the pasch, came to Bethania, where Lazarus had been dead, whom Jesus raised to life. |
| 2 | And they made him a supper there: and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that were at table with him. |
| 3 | Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of right spikenard, of great price, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. |
| 4 | Then one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, he that was about to betray him, said: |
| 5 | Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, 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 purse, carried the things that were put therein. |
| 7 | Jesus therefore said: Let her alone, that she may keep it against the day of my burial. |
| 8 | For the poor you have always with you; but me you have not always. |
| 9 | A great multitude therefore of the Jews knew that he was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. |
| 10 | But the chief priests thought to kill Lazarus also: |
| 11 | Because many of the Jews, by reason of him, went away, and believed in Jesus. |
| 12 | And on the next day, a great multitude that was to come to the festival day, when they had heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, |
| 13 | Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried: Hosanna, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord, the king of Israel. |
| 14 | And Jesus found a young ass, and sat upon it, as it is written: |
| 15 | Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy king cometh, sitting on an ass's colt. |
| 16 | These things his disciples did not know at the first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things to him. |
| 17 | The multitude therefore gave testimony, which was with him, when he called Lazarus out of the grave, and raised him from the dead. |
| 18 | For which reason also the people came to meet him, because they heard that he had done this miracle. |
| 19 | The Pharisees therefore said among themselves: Do you see that we prevail nothing? behold, the whole world is gone after him. |
| 20 | Now there were certain Gentiles among them, who came up to adore on the festival day. |
| 21 | These therefore came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying: Sir, we would see Jesus. |
| 22 | Philip cometh, and telleth Andrew. Again Andrew and Philip told Jesus. |
| 23 | But Jesus answered them, saying: The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. |
| 24 | Amen, amen I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falling into the ground die, |
| 25 | Itself remaineth alone. But if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, keepeth it unto life eternal. |
| 26 | If any man minister to me, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall my minister be. If any man minister to me, him will my Father honour. |
| 27 | Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this cause I came unto this hour. |
| 28 | Father, glorify thy name. A voice therefore came from heaven: I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. |
| 29 | The multitude therefore that stood and heard, said that it thundered. Others said: An angel spoke to him. |
| 30 | Jesus answered, and said: This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. |
| 31 | Now is the judgment of the world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. |
| 32 | And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all things to myself. |
| 33 | (Now this he said, signifying what death he should die.) |
| 34 | The multitude 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? |
| 35 | Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while, the light is among you. Walk whilst you have the light, that the darkness overtake you not. And he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he goeth. |
| 36 | Whilst you have the light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things Jesus spoke; and he went away, and hid himself from them. |
| 37 | And whereas he had done so many miracles before them, they believed not in him: |
| 38 | That the saying of Isaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he said: Lord, who hath believed our hearing? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? |
| 39 | Therefore they could not believe, because Isaias said again: |
| 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. |
| 41 | These things said Isaias, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him. |
| 42 | However, many of the chief men also believed in him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, that they might not be cast out of the synagogue. |
| 43 | For they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God. |
| 44 | But Jesus cried, and said: He that believeth in me, doth not believe in me, but in him that sent me. |
| 45 | And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me. |
| 46 | I am come a light into the world; that whosoever believeth in me, may not remain in darkness. |
| 47 | And if any man hear my words, and keep them not, I do not judge him: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. |
| 48 | He that despiseth 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. |
| 49 | For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father who sent me, he gave me commandment what I should say, and what I should speak. |
| 50 | And I know that his commandment is life everlasting. The things therefore that I speak, even as the Father said unto me, so do I speak. |
