John 12:28-36 (Matins Gospel)
- 28
- Father, glorify Your name.” Then a voice came from heaven, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
- 29
- Therefore the people who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to Him.”
- 30
- Jesus 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 will be cast out.
- 32
- And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself.”
- 33
- This He said, signifying by what death He would die.
- 34
- The people answered Him, “We have heard from the law that the Christ remains forever; and how can You say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”
- 35
- Then Jesus said to them, “A little while longer the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you; he who walks in darkness does not know where he is going.
- 36
- While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.” These things Jesus spoke, and departed, and was hidden from them.
