44 Then Jesus cried aloud: “Whoever believes in me believes not in me but in him who sent me.(A) 45 And whoever sees me sees him who sent me.(B) 46 I have come as light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in the darkness.(C) 47 I do not judge anyone who hears my words and does not keep them, for I came not to judge the world but to save the world.(D) 48 The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; on the last day the word that I have spoken will serve as judge,(E) 49 for I have not spoken on my own, but the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment about what to say and what to speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I speak, therefore, I speak just as the Father has told me.”

Jesus Came to Save the World
44 And Jesus cried out and said, (A)“Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but (B)in him who sent me. 45 And (C)whoever (D)sees me sees him who sent me. 46 (E)I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness. 47 If anyone (F)hears my words and does not keep them, (G)I do not judge him; for (H)I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 48 (I)The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; (J)the word that I have spoken will judge him (K)on the last day. 49 For (L)I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father (M)who sent me has himself given me (N)a commandment—what to say and what to speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has told me.”
