27 They did not understand who he was talking about. He was telling them about the Father. 28 So he said to them, “You will lift up[a] the Son of Man. Then you will know that I Am. You will know that whatever I do is not by my own authority. You will know that I say only what the Father has taught me. 29 The one who sent me is with me. I always do what pleases him. So he has not left me alone.”
