John 12:40-50

New King James Version

⁴⁰“He^(A) has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts,
^(B)Lest they should see with their eyes,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.”

⁴¹^(C)These things Isaiah said ^[a]when he saw His glory and spoke of Him.

Walk in the Light

⁴²Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed in Him, but ^(D)because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; ⁴³^(E)for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

⁴⁴Then Jesus cried out and said, ^(F)“He who believes in Me, ^(G)believes not in Me ^(H)but in Him who sent Me. ⁴⁵And ^(I)he who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. ⁴⁶^(J)I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. ⁴⁷And if anyone hears My words and does not ^[b]believe, ^(K)I do not judge him; for ^(L)I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. ⁴⁸^(M)He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—^(N)the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. ⁴⁹For ^(O)I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, ^(P)what I should say and what I should speak. ⁵⁰And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I ^(Q)speak.”
