John:12:37-50
isv@John:12:37 @ Although he had performed numerous signs in their presence, they did not believe in him,
isv@John:12:38 @ so that the word that the prophet Isaiah spoke might be fulfilled when he said: “Lord, who has believed our message,and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
isv@John:12:39 @ For this reason they could not believe, for Isaiah also said,
isv@John:12:40 @ “He has blinded their eyesand hardened their heart, so that they might not perceive with their eyes,and understand with their heart and turn,and I would heal them.”
isv@John:12:41 @ Isaiah said this when he saw his glory and spoke about him.
isv@John:12:42 @ Yet many people, even some of the authorities, believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not admit it for fear that they would be thrown out of the synagogue.
isv@John:12:43 @ For they loved the praise of people more than the praise of God.
isv@John:12:44 @ Then Jesus said loudly,“The one who believes in me does not believe in me but in the one who sent me.
isv@John:12:45 @ The one who sees me sees the one who sent me.
isv@John:12:46 @ I have come into the world as light, so that everyone who believes in me will not remain in the darkness.
isv@John:12:47 @ If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not condemn him, for I did not come to condemn the world but to save it.
isv@John:12:48 @ The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has something to judge him: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
isv@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken on my own authority. Instead, the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment about what to say and how to speak.
isv@John:12:50 @ And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I speak, therefore, I speak just as the Father has told me.”
