John 12:34-46

³⁴The multitude answered him: We have heard out of the law, that Christ abideth for ever; and how sayest thou: The Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

³⁵Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while, the light is among you. Walk whilst you have the light, that the darkness overtake you not. And he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he goeth.

³⁶Whilst you have the light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things Jesus spoke; and he went away, and hid himself from them.

³⁷And whereas he had done so many miracles before them, they believed not in him:

³⁸That the saying of Isaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he said: Lord, who hath believed our hearing? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

³⁹Therefore they could not believe, because Isaias said again:

⁴⁰He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

⁴¹These things said Isaias, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.

⁴²However, many of the chief men also believed in him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, that they might not be cast out of the synagogue.

⁴³For they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.

⁴⁴But Jesus cried, and said: He that believeth in me, doth not believe in me, but in him that sent me.

⁴⁵And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.

⁴⁶I am come a light into the world; that whosoever believeth in me, may not remain in darkness.
