19 Behold, I say that these things all shall come upon this nation and
the people of Jerusalem.
20 And Jesus looked about and said, Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou cruel
city of Jerusalem, that slays the prophets in the streets and kills
the holy men whom God has sent to you!
21 Lo, I would oft have gathered you as children to the fold of God;
but you would not.
22 You have rejected God, and now your house is desolate, and you
shall see me not again till you can say,
23 Thrice blessed is the son of man who comes as son of God.
24 Then Jesus went and sat beside the treasury and watched the people
as they paid their tithes.
25 The rich men came and gave of their abundance; and then he saw a
poor but loyal widow come and put a farthing in the treasure box.
26 And then he said to his disciples who were standing by, Behold, for
this poor widow who has put a farthing in the treasury has done more
than they all;
27 For she has given all she had; the rich have given just a little
share of what they have.
28 A company of Grecian Jews were at the feast, and they met Philip,
who could talk with them, and said, Sir, we would see the Lord, this
Jesus, who is called the Christ.
29 And Philip led the way, and brought them to the Christ.
30 And Jesus said, The hour has come; the son of man is ready to be
glorified, and it cannot be otherwise.
31 Except a grain of wheat fall into earth and die it can be nothing
but a grain of wheat; but if it die it lives again, and from its grave
a hundred grains of wheat arise.
32 My soul is troubled now; What shall I say? And then he cast his
eyes to heaven and said,
33 My Father-God, I would not ask to be relieved of all the burdens
I must bear; I only ask for grace and strength to bear the burdens
whatso’er they be,
34 This is the hour for which I came to earth. O Father, glorify thy
name!
35 And then the place was lighted with a light more brilliant than the
noonday sun; the people stood a-back; they were afraid.
36 And then a voice that seemed to come from heaven said,
37 I have both glorified my name and yours, and I will honor them
again.
38 The people heard the voice, and some exclaimed, Behold, a distant
thunder! Others said, An angel spoke to him.
39 But Jesus said, This voice was not for me; it was for you, that you
might know that I am come from God.
40 Now is the judgment of the world at hand; the prince of darkness
shall be manifest and go unto his own.
41 The son of man will now be lifted up from earth, and he will draw
all men unto himself.
42 The people said, The law declares that Christ abides forever more.
How can you say, The son of man will now be lifted up? Who is the son
of man?
43 And Jesus said to them, The light is shining now; walk in the light
while you still have the light.
44 The darkness comes; but he who walks in darkness cannot find the
way.
