John

John 5:25–29

²⁵Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. ²⁶For as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted the Son to have life in Himself. ²⁷And He has given Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

²⁸Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice ²⁹and come out — those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.^e
