28 Then Jesus said,[a] “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he,[b] and I do nothing on my own initiative,[c] but I speak just what the Father taught me.[d] 29 And the one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone,[e] because I always do those things that please him.” 30 While he was saying these things, many people[f] believed in him.
