12John 12

CHAP. XII. / 1 Iesus excuseth Mary anointing his feet. 9 The people flocke to see Lazarus. 10 The high Priests consult to kill him. 12 Christ rideth into Ierusalem. 20 Greekes desire to see Iesus. 23

1Then Iesus, sixe dayes before the Passouer, came to Bethanie, where Lazarus was, which had bene dead, whom hee raised from the dead.Select John 12:1

2There they made him a supper, and Martha serued: but Lazarus was one of them þt sate at the table with him.Select John 12:2

3Then tooke Mary a pound of ointment, of Spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Iesus, & wiped his feet with her haire: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.Select John 12:3

4Then saith one of his disciples, Iudas Iscariot, Simons sonne, which should betray him,Select John 12:4

5Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and giuen to the poore?Select John 12:5

6This he said, not that he cared for the poore: but because hee was a thiefe, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.Select John 12:6

7Then said Iesus, Let her alone, against the day of my burying hath she kept this.Select John 12:7

8For the poore alwayes yee haue with you: but me ye haue not alwayes.Select John 12:8

9Much people of the Iewes therefore knew that he was there: and they came, not for Iesus sake onely, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.Select John 12:9

10But the chiefe Priests consulted, þt they might put Lazarus also to death,Select John 12:10

11Because that by reason of him many of the Iewes went away and beleeued on Iesus.Select John 12:11

12On the next day, much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Iesus was comming to Hierusalem,Select John 12:12

13Tooke branches of Palme trees, and went foorth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna, blessed is the king of Israel that cometh in the Name of the Lord.Select John 12:13

14And Iesus, when he had found a yong asse, sate thereon, as it is written,Select John 12:14

15Feare not, daughter of Sion, behold, thy King commeth, sitting on an asses colt.Select John 12:15

16These things vnderstood not his disciples at the first: but when Iesus was glorified, then remēbred they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things vnto him.Select John 12:16

17The people therefore that was with him, when he called Lazarus out of his graue, and raised him from the dead, bare record.Select John 12:17

18For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that hee had done this miracle.Select John 12:18

19The Pharisees therefore saide among themselues, Perceiue ye how yee preuaile nothing? Behold, the world is gone after him.Select John 12:19

20And there were certaine Greeks among them, that came vp to worship at the feast:Select John 12:20

21The same came therefore to Philip which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Iesus.Select John 12:21

22Philip commeth and telleth Andrew: and againe Andrew and Philip told Iesus.Select John 12:22

23And Iesus answered them, saying, The houre is come, that the Sonne of man should be glorified.Select John 12:23

24Uerely, verely, I say vnto you, Except a corne of wheat fall into the ground, and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.Select John 12:24

25He that loueth his life, shall lose it: and hee that hateth his life in this world, shall keepe it vnto life eternall.Select John 12:25

26If any man serue me, let him follow me, and where I am, there shall also my seruant be: If any man serue me, him will my father honour.Select John 12:26

27Now is my soule troubled, and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre, but for this cause came I vnto this houre.Select John 12:27

28Father, glorifie thy Name. Then came there a voice from heauen, saying, I haue both glorified it, and wil glorifie it againe.Select John 12:28

29The people therefore that stood by, and heard it, said, that it thundered: others said, An Angel spake to him.Select John 12:29

30Iesus answered, and said, This voice came not because of mee, but for your sakes.Select John 12:30

31Now is the iudgement of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.Select John 12:31

32And I, if I be lifted vp from the earth, will draw all men vnto me.Select John 12:32

33(This hee said, signifying what death he should die)Select John 12:33

34The people answered him, We haue heard out of the Law, that Christ abideth for euer: and how sayest thou, The Sonne of man must bee lift vp? Who is this Sonne of man?Select John 12:34

35Then Iesus said vnto them, Yet a little while is the light with you: walke while ye haue the light, lest darkdesse come vpon you: For he that walketh in darkenesse, knoweth not whither he goeth.Select John 12:35

36While ye haue light, beleeue in the light, that ye may bee the children of light. These things spake Iesus, and departed, and did hide himselfe from them.Select John 12:36

37But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they beleeued not on him:Select John 12:37

38That the saying of Esaias the Prophet might be fulfilled, which hee spake, Lord, who hath beleeued our report? and to whom hath the arme of the Lord beene reuealed?Select John 12:38

39Therefore they could not beleeue, because that Esaias said againe,Select John 12:39

40He hath blinded their eyes, and hardned their heart, that they should not see with their eyes, nor vnderstand with their heart, and be conuerted, and I should heale them.Select John 12:40

41These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.Select John 12:41

42Neuerthelesse, among the chiefe rulers also, many beleeued on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confesse him, lest they should be put out of the Synagogue.Select John 12:42

43For they loued the praise of men, more then the praise of God.Select John 12:43

44Iesus cried, and said, He that beleeueth on me, beleeueth not on me, but on him that sent me.Select John 12:44

45And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.Select John 12:45

46I am come a light into the world, that whosoeuer beleeueth on me, should not abide in darkenesse.Select John 12:46

47And if any man heare my words, and beleeue not, I iudge him not; For I came not to iudge the world, but to saue the world.Select John 12:47

48He that reiecteth me, and receiueth not my words, hath one that iudgeth him: þe word that I haue spoken, the same shall iudge him in the last day.Select John 12:48

49For I haue not spoken of my selfe; but the Father which sent me, he gaue me a commaundement what I should say, and what I should speake.Select John 12:49

50And I know that his commandement is life euerlasting: whatsoeuer I speake therefore, euen as the Father said vnto me, so I speake.Select John 12:50
