Yeshua predicts his death again

Yhn 12:23–36

12:23 Yeshua predicts his death again

23Now Yeshua told them, “The time has come for humanity’s child to be honoured. 24I can assure you that unless a wheat seed drops into the ground and dies, it will stay just as it is, but if it dies, it’s able to produce a harvest. 25[ref]Anyone who loves their life will lose it, but the person hating their life in this world will stay alive forever. 26Anyone who wants to serve me needs to follow after me, so that wherever I am, my servant will also be there. Anyone who serves me will be honoured by the father.

27Now, I’m very troubled. What else could I say other than, ‘Father, let me avoid what’s coming.’ But it was exactly this that I came for. 28Father, may your authority and be honoured.

And a voice from the sky answered, “I’ve already brought honour to it and will do so again.”

29This caused some in the crowd standing there to say that they’d heard thunder while others said that a messenger must have spoken to Yeshua.

30That voice wasn’t for my sake,Yeshua responded, “but for all of you. 31This world is about to be judged and its ruler will be thrown out, 32and when I’m lifted up[fn] from the earth, I will attract everyone towards me. 33By saying this, he was indicating how he was going to die.

34[ref]So the crowd queried him, “We heard from the scriptures that the messiah will stay until the end of the age so why do you say that humanity’s child will be lifted up. And who is this ‘humanity’s child’?”

35Yeshua answered them, “The light will be among you all for just a little bit longer, so get walking while you have the light so that you won’t have to deal with darkness. Anyone walking in the dark doesn’t know where they’re going. 36While you still have the light, believe in the light so that you will become children of light.

Yeshua said these things and then after leaving them, he was hidden from them.
