Chapter 12

Chapter 12

Joh 12:1  Then six days before Passover Yahushua came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.

Joh 12:2  There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

Joh 12:3  Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Yahushua, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. This was the process of Sanctification before the Passover.

Joh 12:4  Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,

Joh 12:5  Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?

Joh 12:6  This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

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

Joh 12:8  For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.

Joh 12:9  Much people of the Pharisees therefore knew that He was there: and they came not for Yahushua' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

Joh 12:10  But the Chief Priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;

Joh 12:11  Because that by reason of him many of the Pharisees went away, and believed on Yahushua.

Joh 12:12  On the next day much people were in Yerusalem for Passover, when they heard that Yahushua was coming to Yerusalem,

Joh 12:13  Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Yisrael  that cometh in the name of the Lord. This was four days before Passover, the 10 of Nissan, the day the Lamb was to be chosen.

Joh 12:14  And Yahushua, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,

Joh 12:15  Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

Joh 12:16  These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Yahushua was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.

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

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

Joh 12:19  The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.

Joh 12:20  And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:

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

Joh 12:22  Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Yahushua.

Joh 12:23  And Yahushua answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.

Joh 12:24  Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

Joh 12:25  He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

Joh 12:26  If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

Joh 12:27  Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

Joh 12:28  Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.

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

Joh 12:30  Yahushua answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

Joh 12:31  Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

Joh 12:32  And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.

Joh 12:33  This he said, signifying what death he should die.

Joh 12:34  The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Messiyah abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?

Joh 12:35  Then Yahushua said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

Joh 12:36  While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Yahushua, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

Joh 12:37  But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:

Joh 12:38  That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

Joh 12:39  Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,

Joh 12:40  He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

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

Joh 12:42  Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

Joh 12:43  For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of YAHVAH.

Joh 12:44  Yahushua cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.

Joh 12:45  And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.

Joh 12:46  I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

Joh 12:47  And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

Joh 12:48  He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Joh 12:49  For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

Joh 12:50  And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
