John 12:13-25
-
13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.
-
14 And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
-
15 Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.
-
16 These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.
-
17 The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.
-
18 For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.
-
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.
-
20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:
-
21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
-
22 Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
-
23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
-
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
-
25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
