John 5:20-30

English Standard Version

²⁰ For ^(A)the Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing. And ^(B)greater works than these will he show him, so that ^(C)you may marvel. ²¹ For as the Father ^(D)raises the dead and ^(E)gives them life, so ^(F)also the Son gives life ^(G)to whom he will. ^22 (H)For the Father judges no one, but ^(I)has given all judgment to the Son, ²³ that all may honor the Son, just as they ^(J)honor the Father. ^(K)Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. ²⁴ Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(L)whoever hears my word and ^(M)believes him who sent me has eternal life. He ^(N)does not come into judgment, but ^(O)has passed from death to life.

²⁵ “Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(P)an hour is coming, and is now here, when ^(Q)the dead will hear ^(R)the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear ^(S)will live. ^26 (T)For as the Father has life in himself, ^(U)so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself. ²⁷ And he ^(V)has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man. ²⁸ Do not marvel at this, for ^(W)an hour is coming when ^(X)all who are in the tombs will hear his voice ²⁹ and come out, ^(Y)those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.
