John 12:17-26

17 So ¹the people, who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead, continued to testify about Him.

18 ²For this reason also the people went and met Him, ³because they heard that He had performed this sign.

19 So the Pharisees said to one another, "You see that you are not doing any good; look, the world has gone after Him."

20 Now there were some ⁴Greeks among those who were going up to worship at ⁵the feast;

21 these then came to ⁶Philip, who was from ⁷Bethsaida of Galilee, and began to ask him, saying, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."

22 Philip came and told ⁸Andrew; Andrew and Philip came and told Jesus.

23 And Jesus answered them, saying, "⁹The hour has come for the Son of Man to ¹⁰be glorified.

24 "Truly, truly, I say to you, ¹¹unless * a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.

25 "¹²He who loves his life loses it, and he who ¹³hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal.

26 "If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and ¹⁴where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will ¹⁵honor him.
