17. And so the crowd that had been with him, when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead, offered testimony.
18. Because of this, too, the crowd went out to meet him. For they heard that he had accomplished this sign.
19. Therefore, the Pharisees said among themselves: "Do you see that we are accomplishing nothing? Behold, the entire world has gone after him."
20. Now there were certain Gentiles among those who went up so that they might worship on the feast day.
21. Therefore, these approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and they petitioned him, saying: "Sir, we want to see Jesus."
22. Philip went and told Andrew. Next, Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
23. But Jesus answered them by saying: "The hour arrives when the Son of man shall be glorified.
24. Amen, amen, I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies,
25. it remains alone. But if it dies, it yields much fruit. Whoever loves his life, will lose it. And whoever hates his life in this world, preserves it unto eternal life.
26. If anyone serves me, let him follow me. And where I am, there too my minister shall be. If anyone has served me, my Father will honor him.
27. Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say? Father, save me from this hour? But it is for this reason that I came to this hour.
28. Father, glorify your name!" And then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."
29. Therefore, the crowd, which was standing near and had heard it, said that it was like thunder. Others were saying, "An Angel was speaking with him."
30. Jesus responded and said: "This voice came, not for my sake, but for your sakes.
31. Now is the judgment of the world. Now will the prince of this world be cast out.
32. And when I have been lifted up from the earth, I will draw all things to myself."
33. (Now he said this, signifying what kind of death he would die.)
34. The crowd answered him: "We have heard, from the law, that the Christ remains forever. And so how can you say, 'The Son of man must be lifted up?' Who is this Son of man?"
35. Therefore, Jesus said to them: "For a brief time, the Light is among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that the darkness may not overtake you. But whoever walks in darkness does not know where is he going.
