⁴⁰ They devour^(A) widows’^(B) houses and say long prayers^(C) just for show. These will receive harsher punishment.”

²² The Father,^(A) in fact, judges no one but has given all judgment to the Son, ²³ so that all people will honor the Son just as they honor the Father.^(B) Anyone who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.^(C)

Life and Judgment

²⁴ “I assure you: Anyone who hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life^(D) and will not come under judgment but has passed from death to life.

²⁵ “I assure you: An hour is coming, and is now here,^(E) when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.^{(F) 26} For just as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted to the Son^(G) to have life in Himself. ²⁷ And He has granted Him the right to pass judgment,^(H) because He is the Son of Man.^{(I) 28} Do not be amazed at this, because a time is coming when all who are in the graves will hear His voice ²⁹ and come out—those who have done good things, to the resurrection of life, but those who have done wicked things, to the resurrection of judgment.

³⁰ “I can do nothing on My own. I judge only as I hear, and My judgment^(J) is righteous,^(K) because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.^(L)
