| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom he had raised from the dead. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2So they prepared a dinner for Jesus there. Martha was serving, and Lazarus was among those present at the table with him. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Then Mary took three quarters of a pound of expensive aromatic oil from pure nard and anointed the feet of Jesus. She then wiped his feet dry with her hair. (Now the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfumed oil.) |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was going to betray him) said, |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5"Why wasn't this oil sold for three hundred silver coins and the money given to the poor?" |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6(Now Judas said this not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money box, he used to steal what was put into it.) |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7So Jesus said, "Leave her alone. She has kept it for the day of my burial. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8For you will always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me!" |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Now a large crowd of Judeans learned that Jesus was there, and so they came not only because of him but also to see Lazarus whom he had raised from the dead. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10So the chief priests planned to kill Lazarus too, |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11for on account of him many of the Jewish people from Jerusalem were going away and believing in Jesus. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12The next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him. They began to shout, "Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the king of Israel!" |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written, |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15"Do not be afraid, people of Zion; look, your king is coming, seated on a donkey' s colt!" |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16(His disciples did not understand these things when they first happened, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him and that these things had happened to him.) |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17So the crowd who had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead were continuing to testify about it. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18Because they had heard that Jesus had performed this miraculous sign, the crowd went out to meet him. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19Thus the Pharisees said to one another, "You see that you can do nothing. Look, the world has run off after him!" |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20Now some Greeks were among those who had gone up to worship at the feast. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21So these approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and requested, "Sir, we would like to see Jesus." |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22Philip went and told Andrew, and they both went and told Jesus. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23Jesus replied, "The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24I tell you the solemn truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it produces much grain. |
| 25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25The one who loves his life destroys it, and the one who hates his life in this world guards it for eternal life. |
| 26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26If anyone wants to serve me, he must follow me, and where I am, my servant will be too. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him. |
| 27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27"Now my soul is greatly distressed. And what should I say? 'Father, deliver me from this hour'? No, but for this very reason I have come to this hour. |
| 28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28Father, glorify your name." Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again." |
| 29[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 29The crowd that stood there and heard the voice said that it had thundered. Others said that an angel had spoken to him. |
| 30[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 30Jesus said, "This voice has not come for my benefit but for yours. |
| 31[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 31Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be driven out. |
| 32[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 32And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself." |
| 33[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 33(Now he said this to indicate clearly what kind of death he was going to die.) |
| 34[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 34Then the crowd responded, "We have heard from the law that the Christ will remain forever. How can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up'? Who is this Son of Man?" |
| 35[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 35Jesus replied, "The light is with you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, so that the darkness may not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. |
| 36[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 36While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you may become sons of light." When Jesus had said these things, he went away and hid himself from them. |
| 37[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 37Although Jesus had performed so many miraculous signs before them, they still refused to believe in him, |
| 38[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 38so that the word of Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled. He said, "Lord, who has believed our message, and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?" |
| 39[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 39For this reason they could not believe, because again Isaiah said, |
| 40[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 40"He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, so that they would not see with their eyes and understand with their heart, and turn to me, and I would heal them." |
| 41[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 41Isaiah said these things because he saw Christ's glory, and spoke about him. |
| 42[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 42Nevertheless, even among the rulers many believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they would not confess Jesus to be the Christ, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue. |
| 43[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 43For they loved praise from men more than praise from God. |
| 44[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 44But Jesus shouted out, "The one who believes in me does not believe in me, but in the one who sent me, |
| 45[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 45and the one who sees me sees the one who sent me. |
| 46[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 46I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in darkness. |
| 47[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 47If anyone hears my words and does not obey them, I do not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world. |
| 48[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 48The one who rejects me and does not accept my words has a judge; the word I have spoken will judge him at the last day. |
| 49[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 49For I have not spoken from my own authority, but the Father himself who sent me has commanded me what I should say and what I should speak. |
| 50[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 50And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Thus the things I say, I say just as the Father has told me." |
