John 12:27-38 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

27. “Now I Myself am troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But for this reason I came to this hour.

28. “Father, esteem Your Name.” Then a voice came from the heaven, “I have both esteemed it and shall esteem it again.”

29. So the crowd who stood by and heard it were saying there had been thunder. Others said, “A messenger has spoken to Him.”

30. יהושע answered and said, “This voice did not come because of Me, but for your sake.

31. “Now is the judgment of this world, now the ruler of this world shall be cast out.

32. “And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, shall draw all men unto Myself.”

33. This He said, signifying by what death He was about to die.

34. The crowd answered Him, “We have heard out of the Torah that the Messiah remains forever. And how do You say, ‘The Son of Aḏam has to be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Aḏam?”

35. יהושע, therefore, said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you. And he who walks in darkness does not know where he is going.

36. “While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you become sons of light.” These words יהושע spoke, and went off and was hidden from them.

37. But though He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him,

38. that the word of Yeshayahu the prophet might be filled, which he spoke, “יהוה, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of יהוה been revealed?”
