²⁸ “Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming^(K) when all who are in their graves will hear his voice ²⁹ and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned.^{(L) 30} By myself I can do nothing;^(M) I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just,^(N) for I seek not to please myself but him who sent me.^(O)

⁴² He commanded us to preach to the people^(A) and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead.^(B)

4 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead,^(A) and in view of his appearing^(B) and his kingdom, I give you this charge:^(C)
