Sept 14, 2026. Gospel: John 12:31-36. Exaltation of the Holy Cross

Author: Ken Hagen September 14, 2026 Duration: 2:18

31 Now is the judgment of the world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
Nunc judicium est mundi : nunc princeps hujus mundi ejicietur foras.

 32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all things to myself.
Et ego, si exaltatus fuero a terra, omnia traham ad meipsum.

 33 (Now this he said, signifying what death he should die.)
( Hoc autem dicebat, significans qua morte esset moriturus.)

 34 The multitude answered him: We have heard out of the law, that Christ abideth for ever; and how sayest thou: The Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?
Respondit ei turba : Nos audivimus ex lege, quia Christus manet in aeternum : et quomodo tu dicis : Oportet exaltari Filium hominis? quis est iste Filius hominis?

 35 Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while, the light is among you. Walk whilst you have the light, that the darkness overtake you not. And he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he goeth.
Dixit ergo eis Jesus : Adhuc modicum, lumen in vobis est. Ambulate dum lucem habetis, ut non vos tenebrae comprehendant; et qui ambulant in tenebris, nescit quo vadat.

 36 Whilst you have the light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things Jesus spoke; and he went away, and hid himself from them.
Dum lucem habetis, credite in lucem, ut filii lucis sitis. Haec locutus est Jesus, et abiit et abscondit se ab eis.
