A Grain of Wheat

John 12:23-28

A Grain of Wheat

23
And Iesus answered them, saying, The houre is come, that the Sonne of man must bee glorified.
24
Verely, verely I say vnto you, Except the wheate corne fall into the grounde and die, it bideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth foorth much fruite.
25
He that loueth his life, shall lose it, and he that hateth his life in this world, shall keepe it vnto life eternall.
26
If any man serue me, let him follow me: for where I am, there shall also my seruant be: and if any man serue me, him will my Father honour.
27
Now is my soule troubled: and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre: but therefore came I vnto this houre.
28
Father, glorifie thy Name. Then came there a voyce from heauen, saying, I haue both glorified it, and will glorifie it againe.
