John 12:44-50
New English Translation

Jesus’ Final Public Words

44 But Jesus shouted out,[a] “The one who believes in me does not believe in me, but in the one who sent me,[b] 45 and the one who sees me sees the one who sent me.[c] 46 I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in darkness. 47 If anyone[d] hears my words and does not obey them,[e] I do not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world.[f] 48 The one who rejects me and does not accept[g] my words has a judge;[h] the word[i] I have spoken will judge him at the last day. 49 For I have not spoken from my own authority,[j] but the Father himself who sent me has commanded me[k] what I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life.[l] Thus the things I say, I say just as the Father has told me.”[m]

44 And Jesus cried out and said, “(A)He who believes in Me, does not believe in Me but in Him who sent Me. 45 (B)And he who sees Me sees the One who sent Me. 46 (C)I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness. 47 And if anyone hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for (D)I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 (E)He who rejects Me and does not receive My words, has one who judges him; (F)the word I spoke is what will judge him on (G)the last day. 49 (H)For I did not speak from Myself, but the Father Himself who sent Me (I)has given Me a commandment—what to say and what to speak. 50 And I know that (J)His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak (K)just as the Father has told Me.”
