John Chapter 12 Verse 17The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

Then said Jesus, ‹Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.›

‹For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.›

Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;

Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

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.

And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,

Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

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.

For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.

The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.

And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:

The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

And Jesus answered them, saying, ‹The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.›

‹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.›

‹He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.›

‹If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will› [my] ‹Father honour.›

‹Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.›
