John 11:50-52

Worldwide English (New Testament)

⁵⁰ You do not understand. It is better for us if one person dies for the people. Then the whole nation will not be broken down.'

⁵¹ He himself did not understand what he was saying. But he was the high priest that year. God spoke through him to say that Jesus should die for those people.

⁵² Jesus would die, not only for those people, but he would gather together all of God's people who are out in different places.
