31 Now is the time of judgment on this world; now the ruler of this world[a] will be driven out.(A) 32 And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.”(B) 33 He said this indicating the kind of death he would die. 34 So the crowd answered him, “We have heard from the law that the Messiah remains forever.[b] Then how can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?”(C) 35 Jesus said to them, “The light will be among you only a little while. Walk while you have the light, so that darkness may not overcome you. Whoever walks in the dark does not know where he is going.(D) 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you may become children of the light.”(E)

John 12:31-36
New International Version
31 Now is the time for judgment on this world;(A) now the prince of this world(B) will be driven out. 32 And I, when I am lifted up[a] from the earth,(C) will draw all people to myself.”(D) 33 He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.(E)
34 The crowd spoke up, “We have heard from the Law(F) that the Messiah will remain forever,(G) so how can you say, ‘The Son of Man(H) must be lifted up’?(I) Who is this ‘Son of Man’?”
35 Then Jesus told them, “You are going to have the light(J) just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light,(K) before darkness overtakes you.(L) Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going. 36 Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may become children of light.”(M) When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.(N)

- 1:12–17 Present gratitude for the Christian apostleship leads Paul to recall an earlier time when he had been a fierce persecutor of the Christian communities (cf. Acts 26:9–11) until his conversion by intervention of divine mercy through the appearance of Jesus. This and his subsequent apostolic experience testify to the saving purpose of Jesus’ incarnation. The fact of his former ignorance of the truth has not kept the apostle from regarding himself as having been the worst of sinners (1 Tm 1:15). Yet he was chosen to be an apostle, that God might manifest his firm will to save sinful humanity through Jesus Christ (1 Tm 1:16). The recounting of so great a mystery leads to a spontaneous outpouring of adoration (1 Tm 1:17).

11 that conforms to the gospel concerning the glory of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me.(A)
