12:1 |
hen Iesus, sixe dayes before the Passouer, came to Bethanie, where Lazarus was, which had bene dead, whom hee raised from the dead. |
|
12:2 |
There they made him a supper, and Martha serued: but Lazarus was one of them that sate at the table with him. |
|
12:3 |
Then tooke Mary a pound of ointment, of Spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Iesus, & wiped his feet with her haire: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. |
|
12:4 |
Then saith one of his disciples, Iudas Iscariot, Simons sonne, which should betray him, |
|
12:5 |
Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and giuen to the poore? |
|
12:6 |
This he said, not that he cared for the poore: but because hee was a thiefe, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein. |
|
12:7 |
Then said Iesus, Let her alone, against the day of my burying hath she kept this. |
|
12:8 |
For the poore alwayes yee haue with you: but me ye haue not alwayes. |
|
12:9 |
Much people of the Iewes therefore knew that he was there: and they came, not for Iesus sake onely, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead. |
|
12:10 |
But the chiefe Priests consulted, that they might put Lazarus also to death, |
|
12:11 |
Because that by reason of him many of the Iewes went away and beleeued on Iesus. |
|
12:12 |
On the next day, much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Iesus was comming to Hierusalem, |
|
12:13 |
Tooke branches of Palme trees, and went foorth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna, blessed is the king of Israel that cometh in the Name of the Lord. |
|
12:14 |
And Iesus, when he had found a yong asse, sate thereon, as it is written, |
|
12:15 |
Feare not, daughter of Sion, behold, thy King commeth, sitting on an asses colt. |
|
12:16 |
These things vnderstood not his disciples at the first: but when Iesus was glorified, then remebred they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things vnto him. |
|
12:17 |
The people therefore that was with him, when he called Lazarus out of his graue, and raised him from the dead, bare record. |
|
12:18 |
For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that hee had done this miracle. |
|
12:19 |
The Pharisees therefore saide among themselues, Perceiue ye how yee preuaile nothing? Behold, the world is gone after him. |
|
12:20 |
And there were certaine Greeks among them, that came vp 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 Iesus. |
|
12:22 |
Philip commeth and telleth Andrew: and againe Andrew and Philip told Iesus. |
|
12:23 |
And Iesus answered them, saying, The houre is come, that the Sonne of man should be glorified. |
|
12:24 |
Uerely, verely, I say vnto you, Except a corne of wheat fall into the ground, and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. |
|
12:25 |
He that loueth his life, shall lose it: and hee that hateth his life in this world, shall keepe it vnto life eternall. |
|
12:26 |
If any man serue me, let him follow me, and where I am, there shall also my seruant be: If any man serue me, him will my father honour. |
|
12:27 |
Now is my soule troubled, and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre, but for this cause came I vnto this houre. |
|
12:28 |
Father, glorifie thy Name. Then came there a voice from heauen, saying, I haue both glorified it, and wil glorifie it againe. |
|
12:29 |
The people therefore that stood by, and heard it, said, that it thundered: others said, An Angel spake to him. |
|
12:30 |
Iesus answered, and said, This voice came not because of mee, but for your sakes. |
|
12:31 |
Now is the iudgement of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. |
|
12:32 |
And I, if I be lifted vp from the earth, will draw all men vnto me. |
|
12:33 |
(This hee said, signifying what death he should die) |
|
12:34 |
The people answered him, We haue heard out of the Law, that Christ abideth for euer: and how sayest thou, The Sonne of man must bee lift vp? Who is this Sonne of man? |
|
12:35 |
Then Iesus said vnto them, Yet a little while is the light with you: walke while ye haue the light, lest darkdesse come vpon you: For he that walketh in darkenesse, knoweth not whither he goeth. |
|
12:36 |
While ye haue light, beleeue in the light, that ye may bee the children of light. These things spake Iesus, and departed, and did hide himselfe from them. |
|
12:37 |
But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they beleeued not on him: |
|
12:38 |
That the saying of Esaias the Prophet might be fulfilled, which hee spake, Lord, who hath beleeued our report? and to whom hath the arme of the Lord beene reuealed? |
|
12:39 |
Therefore they could not beleeue, because that Esaias said againe, |
|
12:40 |
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardned their heart, that they should not see with their eyes, nor vnderstand with their heart, and be conuerted, and I should heale them. |
|
12:41 |
These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him. |
|
12:42 |
Neuerthelesse, among the chiefe rulers also, many beleeued on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confesse him, lest they should be put out of the Synagogue. |
|
12:43 |
For they loued the praise of men, more then the praise of God. |
|
12:44 |
Iesus cried, and said, He that beleeueth on me, beleeueth 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 whosoeuer beleeueth on me, should not abide in darkenesse. |
|
12:47 |
And if any man heare my words, and beleeue not, I iudge him not; For I came not to iudge the world, but to saue the world. |
|
12:48 |
He that reiecteth me, and receiueth not my words, hath one that iudgeth him: ye word that I haue spoken, the same shall iudge him in the last day. |
|
12:49 |
For I haue not spoken of my selfe; but the Father which sent me, he gaue me a commaundement what I should say, and what I should speake. |
|
12:50 |
And I know that his commandement is life euerlasting: whatsoeuer I speake therefore, euen as the Father said vnto me, so I speake. |
