²⁷ and has given Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

²⁹ and come out — those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.

³⁰ I can do nothing by myself. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous, because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of the Father who sent me.
