If ye loved me, ye would rejoyce, because I go unto the Father: for the Father is greater than I. ²⁹ And now I have told you before it come to pass, that when it shall come to pass, ye might believe me. ³⁰ Hereafter I will not talk many things to you: for the prince of the world cometh, and hath nothing to find in me. ³¹ But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as he commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
