²⁷ “Now my soul is troubled,^(A) and what shall I say? ‘Father,^(B) save me from this hour’?^(C) No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. ²⁸ Father, glorify your name!”

Then a voice came from heaven,^(D) “I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.” ²⁹ The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him.

³⁰ Jesus said, “This voice was for your benefit,^(E) not mine. ³¹ Now is the time for judgment on this world;^(F) now the prince of this world^(G) will be driven out. ³² And I, when I am lifted up^[a] from the earth,^(H) will draw all people to myself.”^{(I) 33} He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.^(J)

Belief and Unbelief Among the Jews

³⁷ Even after Jesus had performed so many signs^(A) in their presence, they still would not believe in him.

⁴² Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him.^(A) But because of the Pharisees^(B) they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue;^{(C) 43} for they loved human praise^(D) more than praise from God.^(E)

⁴⁴ Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me.^{(F) 45} The one who looks at me is seeing the one who sent me.^{(G) 46} I have come into the world as a light,^(H) so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.

⁴⁷ “If anyone hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.^{(I) 48} There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them^(J) at the last day. ⁴⁹ For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me^(K) to say all that I have spoken. ⁵⁰ I know that his command leads to eternal life.^(L) So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say.”^(M)
