31 Now is the judgment of this world; now (A)the ruler of this world will be cast out. 32 And I, (B)if I am [a]lifted up from the earth, will draw (C)all peoples to Myself.” 33 (D)This He said, signifying by what death He would die.

34 The people answered Him, (E)“We have heard from the law that the Christ remains forever; and how can You say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”

35 Then Jesus said to them, “A little while longer (F)the light is with you. (G)Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you; (H)he who walks in darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become (I)sons of light.” These things Jesus spoke, and departed, and (J)was hidden from them.

31 Now is the time for judgment on this world;(A) now the prince of this world(B) will be driven out. 32 And I, when I am lifted up[a] from the earth,(C) will draw all people to myself.”(D) 33 He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.(E)

34 The crowd spoke up, “We have heard from the Law(F) that the Messiah will remain forever,(G) so how can you say, ‘The Son of Man(H) must be lifted up’?(I) Who is this ‘Son of Man’?”

35 Then Jesus told them, “You are going to have the light(J) just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light,(K) before darkness overtakes you.(L) Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going. 36 Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may become children of light.”(M) When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.(N)
