John 12

1 Jesus excuseth Mary anointing his feet. 9 The people flock to see Lazarus. 10 The high priests consult to kill him. 12 Christ rideth into Jerusalem. 20 Greeks desire to see Jesus. 23 He foretelleth his death. 37 The Jews are generally blinded: 42 yet many chief rulers believe, but do not confess him: 44 therefore Jesus calleth earnestly for confession of faith.

 12:1 ¶ Then 3767 Jesus 2424 six 1803 days 2250 before 4253 the x3588 passover 3957 came 2064 z5627 to 1519 Bethany, 963 where 3699 Lazarus 2976 was 2258 z5713 which y3588 had been dead, 2348 z5761 whom 3739 he raised 1453 z5656 from 1537 the dead. 3498

 12:2 x3767 There 1563 y3767 they made 4160 z5656 him y846 x4160 a supper; 1173 and 2532 Martha 3136 served: 1247 z5707 but 1161 Lazarus 2976 was 2258 z5713 one 1520 of them that sat at the table y4873 z5740 with x4873 him. 846

 12:3 Then 3767 took 2983 z5631 Mary 3137 a pound 3046 of ointment 3464 of spikenard, 3487 4101 very costly, 4186 and anointed 218 z5656 the x3588 feet 4228 of Jesus, 2424 and 2532 wiped 1591 z5656 his 846 feet 4228 with her y846 x848 hair: 2359 and 1161 the x3588 house 3614 was filled 4137 z5681 with 1537 the x3588 odour 3744 of the x3588 ointment. 3464

 12:4 Then 3767 saith 3004 z5719 one 1520 of 1537 his 846 disciples, 3101 Judas 2455 Iscariot, 2469 Simon's 4613 [son], which y3588 should 3195 z5723 betray 3860 z5721 him, 846

 12:5 Why 1302 was y4097 z0 not 3756 this 5124 ointment 3464 sold 4097 z5681 for three hundred 5145 pence, 1220 and 2532 given 1325 z5681 to the poor? 4434

 12:6 1161 This 5124 he said, 2036 z5627 not 3756 that 3754 he 846 cared 3199 z5707 for 4012 the x3588 poor; 4434 but 235 because 3754 he was 2258 z5713 a thief, 2812 and 2532 had 2192 z5707 the x3588 bag, 1101 and 2532 bare 941 z5707 what was put x906 therein. y906 z5746

 12:7 Then 3767 said 2036 z5627 Jesus, 2424 Let y863 z0 her y846 alone: 863 z5628 x846 against 1519 the x3588 day 2250 of my 3450 burying 1780 hath she kept 5083 z5758 this. 846

 12:8 For 1063 the x3588 poor 4434 always 3842 ye have 2192 z5719 with 3326 you; 1438 but 1161 me 1691 ye have 2192 z5719 not 3756 always. 3842

 12:9 Much 4183 people 3793 of 1537 the x3588 Jews 2453 therefore 3767 knew 1097 z5627 that 3754 he was 2076 z5748 there: 1563 and 2532 they came 2064 z5627 not 3756 for y1223 Jesus' y2424 sake x1223 x2424 only, 3440 but 235 that 2443 they might see 1492 z5632 Lazarus 2976 also, 2532 whom 3739 he had raised 1453 z5656 from 1537 the dead. 3498

 12:10 ¶ But 1161 the x3588 chief priests 749 consulted 1011 z5662 that 2443 they might put y615 z0 Lazarus y2976 also y2532 to death; 615 z5725 x2976 x2532

 12:11 Because 3754 that by reason y1223 of x1223 him 846 many 4183 of the x3588 Jews 2453 went away, 5217 z5707 and 2532 believed 4100 z5707 on 1519 Jesus. 2424

 12:12 ¶ On the x3588 next day 1887 much 4183 people 3793 that were come 2064 z5631 to 1519 the x3588 feast, 1859 when they heard 191 z5660 that 3754 Jesus 2424 was coming 2064 z5736 to 1519 Jerusalem, 2414

 12:13 Took 2983 z5627 branches 902 of palm trees, 5404 and 2532 went forth 1831 z5627 to 1519 meet 5222 him, 846 and 2532 cried, 2896 z5707 Hosanna: 5614 Blessed 2127 z5772 [is] the x3588 King 935 of Israel 2474 that cometh 2064 z5740 in 1722 the name 3686 of the Lord. 2962

 12:14 And 1161 Jesus, 2424 when he had found 2147 z5631 a young ass, 3678 sat 2523 z5656 thereon; 1909 846 as 2531 it is 2076 z5748 written, 1125 z5772

 12:15 Fear 5399 z5732 z5737 not, 3361 daughter 2364 of Sion: 4622 behold, 2400 z5628 thy 4675 King 935 cometh, 2064 z5736 sitting 2521 z5740 on 1909 an ass's 3688 colt. 4454

 12:16 1161 These things 5023 understood 1097 z5627 not 3756 his 846 disciples 3101 at the first: 4412 but 235 when 3753 Jesus 2424 was glorified, 1392 z5681 then 5119 remembered x3415 they y3415 z5681 that 3754 these things 5023 were 2258 z5713 written 1125 z5772 of 1909 him, 846 and 2532 [that] they had done 4160 z5656 these things 5023 unto him. 846

 12:17 The x3588 people 3793 therefore 3767 that was 5607 z5752 with 3326 him 846 when 3753 he called 5455 z5656 Lazarus 2976 out of 1537 his grave, 3419 and 2532 raised 1453 z5656 him 846 from 1537 the dead, 3498 bare record. 3140 z5707

 12:18 For this y5124 cause 1223 x5124 the x3588 people 3793 also 2532 met 5221 z5656 him, 846 for x3754 that y3754 they heard 191 z5656 that y846 he x846 had done 4160 z5760 this 5124 miracle. 4592

 12:19 The x3588 Pharisees 5330 therefore 3767 said 2036 z5627 among 4314 themselves, 1438 Perceive x2334 ye y2334 z5719 z5720 how 3754 ye prevail 5623 z5719 x3756 nothing? 3762 y3756 behold, 2396 the x3588 world 2889 is gone 565 z5627 after 3694 him. 846

 12:20 ¶ And 1161 there were 2258 z5713 certain 5100 Greeks 1672 among 1537 them that came up 305 z5723 to 2443 worship 4352 z5661 at 1722 the x3588 feast: 1859

 12:21 The same 3778 came 4334 z5656 therefore 3767 to Philip, 5376 which x3588 was of 575 Bethsaida 966 of Galilee, 1056 and 2532 desired 2065 z5707 him, 846 saying, 3004 z5723 Sir, 2962 we would 2309 z5719 see 1492 z5629 Jesus. 2424

 12:22 Philip 5376 cometh 2064 z5736 and 2532 telleth 3004 z5719 Andrew: 406 and 2532 again 3825 Andrew 406 and 2532 Philip 5376 tell 3004 z5719 Jesus. 2424

 12:23 ¶ And 1161 Jesus 2424 answered 611 z5662 them, 846 saying, 3004 z5723 The x3588 hour 5610 is come, 2064 z5754 that 2443 the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 should be glorified. 1392 z5686

 12:24 Verily, 281 verily, 281 I say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 Except 3362 a corn 2848 of wheat 4621 fall 4098 z5631 into 1519 the x3588 ground 1093 and die, 599 z5632 it 846 abideth 3306 z5719 alone: 3441 but 1161 if 1437 it die, 599 z5632 it bringeth forth 5342 z5719 much 4183 fruit. 2590

 12:25 He that loveth 5368 z5723 his y846 x848 life 5590 shall lose 622 z5692 it; 846 and 2532 he that hateth 3404 z5723 his y846 x848 life 5590 in 1722 this 5129 world 2889 shall keep 5442 z5692 it 846 unto 1519 life 2222 eternal. 166

 12:26 If 1437 any man 5100 serve 1247 z5725 me, 1698 let him follow 190 z5720 me; 1698 and 2532 where 3699 I 1473 am, 1510 z5748 there 1563 shall y2071 z0 also 2532 my 1699 servant 1249 be: 2071 2532 z5704 if 1437 any man 5100 serve 1247 z5725 me, 1698 him 846 will y5091 z0 [my] Father 3962 honour. 5091 z5692

 12:27 Now 3568 is y5015 z0 my 3450 soul 5590 troubled; 5015 z5769 and 2532 what 5101 shall I say? 2036 z5632 Father, 3962 save 4982 z5657 me 3165 from 1537 this 5026 hour: 5610 but 235 for this y5124 cause 1223 x5124 came x2064 I y2064 z5627 unto 1519 this 5026 hour. 5610

 12:28 Father, 3962 glorify 1392 z5657 thy 4675 name. y3686 Then 3767 x3686 came x2064 there y2064 z5627 a voice 5456 from 1537 heaven, 3772 [saying], I have y1392 z0 both 2532 glorified 1392 z5656 [it], and 2532 will glorify 1392 z5692 [it] again. 3825

 12:29 The x3588 people 3793 therefore, 3767 that stood by, 2476 z5761 and 2532 heard 191 z5660 [it], said 3004 z5707 that it thundered: 1096 1027 z5755 others 243 said, 3004 z5707 An angel 32 spake 2980 z5758 to him. 846

 12:30 Jesus 2424 answered 611 z5662 and 2532 said, 2036 z5627 This 3778 voice 5456 came 1096 z5754 not 3756 because x1223 of y1223 me, 1691 but 235 for y1223 z0 your sakes. 5209 1223

 12:31 Now 3568 is 2076 z5748 the judgment 2920 of this 5127 world: 2889 now 3568 shall y1544 z0 the x3588 prince 758 of this 5127 world 2889 be cast 1544 z5701 out. 1854

 12:32 And I, 2504 if 1437 I be lifted up 5312 z5686 from 1537 the x3588 earth, 1093 will draw 1670 z5692 all 3956 [men] unto 4314 me. 1683

 12:33 1161 This 5124 he said, 3004 z5707 signifying 4591 z5723 what 4169 death 2288 he should 3195 z5707 die. 599 z5721

 12:34 The x3588 people 3793 answered 611 z5662 him, 846 We 2249 have heard 191 z5656 out of 1537 the x3588 law 3551 that 3754 Christ 5547 abideth 3306 z5719 for y1519 ever: 165 x1519 and 2532 how 4459 sayest 3004 z5719 thou, 4771 y3754 The x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 must 1163 z5748 be lifted up? 5312 z5683 who 5101 is 2076 z5748 this 3778 Son 5207 of man? 444

 12:35 Then 3767 Jesus 2424 said 2036 z5627 unto them, 846 Yet 2089 a little 3398 while 5550 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 light 5457 with 3326 you. 5216 Walk 4043 z5720 while 2193 ye have 2192 z5719 the x3588 light, 5457 lest 3363 darkness 4653 come upon 2638 z5632 you: 5209 for 2532 he that walketh 4043 z5723 in 1722 darkness 4653 knoweth 1492 z5758 not 3756 whither 4226 he goeth. 5217 z5719

 12:36 While 2193 ye have 2192 z5719 light, 5457 believe 4100 z5720 in 1519 the x3588 light, 5457 that 2443 ye may be 1096 z5638 the children 5207 of light. 5457 These things 5023 spake 2980 z5656 Jesus, 2424 and x2532 departed, 565 z5631 and y2532 did hide x2928 himself y2928 z5648 from 575 them. 846

 12:37 ¶ But 1161 though he 846 had done 4160 z5761 so many 5118 miracles 4592 before 1715 them, 846 yet they believed 4100 z5707 not 3756 on 1519 him: 846

 12:38 That 2443 the x3588 saying 3056 of Esaias 2268 the x3588 prophet 4396 might be fulfilled, 4137 z5686 which 3739 he spake, 2036 z5627 Lord, 2962 who 5101 hath believed 4100 z5656 our 2257 report? 189 and 2532 to whom 5101 hath the x3588 arm 1023 of the Lord 2962 been revealed? 601 z5681

 12:39 Therefore 5124 1223 they could 1410 z5711 not 3756 believe, 4100 z5721 because 3754 that Esaias 2268 said 2036 z5627 again, 3825

 12:40 He hath blinded 5186 z5758 their 846 eyes, 3788 and 2532 hardened 4456 z5758 their 846 heart; 2588 that y3363 z0 x2443 they should y1492 z0 not y3363 x3361 see 1492 z5632 with [their] eyes, 3788 nor 2532 understand 3539 z5661 with [their] heart, 2588 and 2532 be converted, 1994 z5652 and 2532 I should heal 2390 z5667 them. 846

 12:41 These things 5023 said 2036 z5627 Esaias, 2268 when 3753 he saw 1492 z5627 his 846 glory, 1391 and 2532 spake 2980 z5656 of 4012 him. 846

 12:42 ¶ Nevertheless 3676 3305 x2532 among 1537 the x3588 chief rulers 758 also 2532 many 4183 believed 4100 z5656 on 1519 him; 846 but 235 because 1223 of the x3588 Pharisees 5330 they did y3670 z0 not 3756 confess 3670 z5707 [him], lest 3363 they should be 1096 z5638 put out of the synagogue: 656

 12:43 For 1063 they loved 25 z5656 the x3588 praise 1391 of men 444 more 3123 than 2260 the x3588 praise 1391 of God. 2316

 12:44 ¶ 1161 Jesus 2424 cried 2896 z5656 and 2532 said, 2036 z5627 He that believeth 4100 z5723 on 1519 me, 1691 believeth 4100 z5719 not 3756 on 1519 me, 1691 but 235 on 1519 him that sent 3992 z5660 me. 3165

 12:45 And 2532 he that seeth 2334 z5723 me 1691 seeth 2334 z5719 him that sent 3992 z5660 me. 3165

 12:46 I 1473 am come 2064 z5754 a light 5457 into 1519 the x3588 world, 2889 that y3363 z0 x2443 whosoever 3956 believeth 4100 z5723 on 1519 me 1691 should y3306 z0 not y3363 x3361 abide 3306 z5661 in 1722 darkness. 4653

 12:47 And 2532 if y3362 z0 x1437 any man 5100 hear 191 z5661 my 3450 words, 4487 and 2532 believe 4100 z5661 not, y3362 x3361 I 1473 judge 2919 z5692 z5719 him 846 not: 3756 for 1063 I came 2064 z5627 not 3756 to 2443 judge 2919 z5725 the x3588 world, 2889 but 235 to 2443 save 4982 z5661 the x3588 world. 2889

 12:48 He that rejecteth 114 z5723 me, 1691 and 2532 receiveth 2983 z5723 not 3361 my 3450 words, 4487 hath 2192 z5719 one that judgeth 2919 z5723 him: 846 the x3588 word 3056 that 3739 I have spoken, 2980 z5656 the same 1565 shall judge 2919 z5692 him 846 in 1722 the x3588 last 2078 day. 2250

 12:49 For 3754 I 1473 have y2980 z0 not 3756 spoken 2980 z5656 of 1537 myself; 1683 but 235 the Father 3962 which sent 3992 z5660 me, 3165 he 846 gave 1325 z5656 me 3427 a commandment, 1785 what 5101 I should say, 2036 z5632 and 2532 what 5101 I should speak. 2980 z5661

 12:50 And 2532 I know 1492 z5758 that 3754 his 846 commandment 1785 is 2076 z5748 life 2222 everlasting: 166 whatsoever 3739 I 1473 speak 2980 z5719 therefore, 3767 even as 2531 the x3588 Father 3962 said 2046 z5758 unto me, 3427 so 3779 I speak. 2980 z5719
