I do not seek my glory; there is one who seeks and judges
Next see “I do not seek my glory; there is one who seeks and judges.”
God seeks in each who has received the Son the glory of Christ; not finding it, he judges those in whom he does not find it.
Greek
Μετὰ ταῦτα ἴδωμεν τί ἐστιν τὸ Ἐγὼ δὲ οὐ ζητῶ τὴν δόξαν μου· ἔστιν ὁ ζητῶν καὶ κρίνων.
Ζητεῖ ὁ θεὸς ἐν ἑκάστῳ τῶν εἰληφότων τὸν υἱὸν τὴν δόξαν τοῦ Χριστοῦ· μὴ εὑρίσκων κρινεῖ ἐκείνους ἐν οἷς οὐχ εὑρίσκει.
