Johannes 12,30

Jesus

28 Far, herliggjør ditt navn." Da kom en røst fra himmelen: "Jeg har herliggjort det og vil herliggjøre det igjen."

29 Mengden som sto der og hørte det, sa at det hadde tordnet; andre sa: "En engel har talt til ham."

Jesus sa: "Denne røsten kom for deres skyld, ikke for min.

31 Nå er tiden kommet for dom over denne verden; nå skal denne verdens hersker kastes ut.

32 Og når jeg blir løftet opp fra jorden, vil jeg dra alle mennesker til meg."

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
