John 12:27-36

Christian Standard Bible

²⁷ “Now my soul is troubled. What should I say—Father, save me^(A) from this hour? But that is why I came to this hour. ²⁸ Father, glorify your name.”^[a](B)

Then a voice^(C) came from heaven: ^(D) “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”^(E)

²⁹ The crowd standing there heard it and said it was thunder. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”

³⁰ Jesus responded, “This voice came, not for me, but for you.^{(F) 31} Now is the judgment of this world.^(G) Now the ruler of this world^(H) will be cast out.^{(I) 32} As for me, if I am lifted up^[b] from the earth I will draw all people to myself.”^{(J) 33} He said this to indicate what kind of death he was about to die.^(K)

³⁴ Then the crowd replied to him, “We have heard from the law that the Messiah will remain forever.^(L) So how can you say, ‘The Son of Man^(M) must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”

³⁵ Jesus answered, “The light will be with you only a little longer.^(N) Walk while you have the light^(O) so that darkness doesn’t overtake you.^(P) The one who walks in darkness doesn’t know where he’s going.^{(Q) 36} While you have the light,^(R) believe in the light so that you may become children of light.” Jesus said this, then went away and hid from them.^(S)
