16 Jesus answered them, “My teaching isn’t mine but is from the one who sent me.(A) 17 If anyone wants to do his will,(B) he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own. 18 The one who speaks on his own seeks his own glory;(C) but he who seeks the glory(D) of the one who sent him is true,(E) and there is no unrighteousness in him.(F)

Jeremiah 17:1-6
Christian Standard Bible
The Persistent Sin of Judah
17 The sin of Judah is inscribed
with an iron stylus.(A)
With a diamond point
it is engraved on the tablet of their hearts(B)
and on the horns of their[a] altars,
2 while their children remember their altars
and their Asherah poles, by the green trees
on the high hills(C)—
3 my mountains in the countryside.
I will give up your wealth
and all your treasures as plunder(D)
because of the sin of your high places[b]
in all your borders.(E)
4 You will, on your own, relinquish your inheritance
that I gave you.
I will make you serve your enemies
in a land you do not know,(F)
for you have set my anger on fire;(G)
it will burn forever.
Curse and Blessing
5 This is what the Lord says:
Cursed is the person who trusts in mankind.(H)
He makes human flesh his strength,(I)
and his heart turns from the Lord.
6 He will be like a juniper in the Arabah;(J)
he cannot see when good comes
but dwells in the parched places in the wilderness,
in a salt land where no one lives.(K)

Revelation 13:14-17
Christian Standard Bible
14 It deceives those who live on the earth(A) because of the signs that it is permitted to perform in the presence of the beast,(B) telling those who live on the earth to make an image[a] of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. 15 It was permitted to give breath[b] to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast could both speak and cause whoever would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.(C) 16 And it makes everyone—small and great, rich and poor, free and slave—to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead,(D) 17 so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark: the beast’s name or the number of its name.
