* With these words Jesus went away and hid himself from them . But although he had wrought such signs in their presence , still they did not believe in him . * So the words spoken by Isaiah , the prophet , were fulfilled . Lord , who hath believed our message , And to whom hath the Arm of the Lord been revealed ? * This was why they could not believe , because Isaiah said again . * He hath blinded their eyes and make their hearts hard , Lest they should see with their eyes , perceive with their minds , And should turn , and I should heal them . * Isaiah uttered these words because he saw his glory , and he spoke of him . * Nevertheless , even among the rulers many believed on him , but did not confess in on account of the Pharisees , for fear lest they be put out of the Synagogue . * For they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God . * Now Jesus , speaking in a loud voice , had said . * "He who believes in me believes not in me , but in Him who sent me ; and he who sees me sees him who sent me . * Like light am I come into the world , so that no one who believes in me may remain in darkness . * And if any one hears my words and does not keep them , it is not I who judge him ; for I am not come to judge the world , but to save the world . * He who rejects me , and does not receive my words , has indeed a judge . The message which I have spoken , that shall judge him in the Last Day , * because I have never spoken on my own authority , but the Father himself who sent me gave me commandment what to say and what words to speak . * And I know that his commandment is eternal life . So whatever I speak , I speak as the Father has told me ."
