12 On the next day, athe great crowd who had come to the bfeast, when they heard that Jesus was coming into Jerusalem,
13 Took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out, 1Hosanna! aBlessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord, even the bKing of Israel!
14 And Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it, as it is written,
15 a"Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey's colt.''
16 These things His disciples did not understand at first, but when Jesus was aglorified, then they bremembered that these things were written of Him and that they had done these things to Him.
17 The crowd therefore that was with Him when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead testified.
18 For this reason the crowd also went and met Him, because they heard that He had done this sign.
19 The Pharisees then said to one another, You see that you are not doing anything worthwhile; behold, the world has gone after Him.
20 And there were some Greeks among those who went up to aworship at the feast.
21 These then came to aPhilip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we wish to see Jesus.
22 Philip came and told Andrew; Andrew came, and Philip too, and they told Jesus.
23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The ahour has come for the Son of Man to be 1bglorified.
24 Truly, truly, I say to you, aUnless the grain of wheat 1falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone; but if it dies, it bears 2bmuch fruit.
25 aHe who loves his 1bsoul-life loses it; and he who chates his 1bsoul-life in this world shall keep it unto 2eternal life.
26 If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there also My servant will be. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.
27 Now is aMy 1soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, bsave Me out of this chour. But for 2this reason I have come to this hour.
28 Father, 1aglorify Your name. Then a bvoice came out of heaven: I have both 1aglorified it and will 1aglorify it again.
29 The crowd therefore which stood by and heard it said that there had been thunder; others said, aAn angel has spoken to Him.
30 Jesus answered and said, This voice has not 1come for My sake, but for your sake.
31 Now is the 1ajudgment of this 2world; now shall the bruler of this world be cast out.
32 And I, if I be 1alifted up from the earth, will bdraw call men to Myself.
33 But He said this asignifying by what kind of death He was about to die.
34 The crowd therefore answered Him, We have heard out of the law that the aChrist abides forever; and how is it that You say, The Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?
35 Jesus then said to them, The light is astill among you a little while. Walk while you have the light so that darkness may not bovercome you; and he who cwalks in the darkness does not know where he is going.
36 While you have the alight, believe into the light, so that you may become bsons of light. Jesus said these things, and He went away and cwas hidden from them.
