²⁷ Nowe is my soule troubled, and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre: but therfore came I into this houre. ²⁸ Father, glorifie thy name. Then came there a voyce from heauen [saying] I haue both glorified it, and wyll glorifie it agayne. ²⁹ The people therfore that stoode by and hearde it, sayde that it thundred: Other sayde, an Angel spake to hym. ³⁰ Iesus aunswered and sayde: This voyce came, not because of me, but for your sakes. ³¹ Nowe is the iudgement of this worlde: Nowe shall the prince of this worlde be cast out. ³² And I, yf I were lyft vp from the earth, wyll drawe all men vnto me. ³³ (This he sayde, signifiyng what death he shoulde dye.) ³⁴ The people aunswered him: We haue hearde out of the lawe, that Christe bydeth euer: and howe sayest thou, the sonne of man must be lyft vp?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Jesus answered and said,.... To the people that stood by, and were disputing among themselves about what they heard, whether it was thunder, or the voice of an angel:

this voice came not because of me; at least not only and chiefly; it was not so much in answer to his prayer, or in order to comfort him under the apprehensions he had of his sufferings and death, or to assure him of his future glorification, though all this was true:

but for your sakes; to convince them that he was the Messiah, and engage them to believe in him, or to leave them without excuse; since not only miracles were wrought before their eyes, but with their ears they heard God speaking to him, and which is the rule that they themselves prescribe; for according to them, no man is to be hearkened to, though he should do as many signs and wonders as Moses, the son of Amram, unless they hear with their ears, that the Lord speaks to him as he did to Moses c.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Came not because of me - Not to strengthen or confirm me; not that I had any doubts about my course, or any apprehension that God would not approve me and glorify his name.

For your sakes - To give you a striking and indubitable proof that I am the Messiah; that you may remember it when I am departed, and be yourselves comforted, supported, and saved.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 30. This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. — Probably meaning those Greeks who had been brought to him by Philip and Andrew. The Jews had frequent opportunities of seeing his miracles, and of being convinced that he was the Messiah; but these Greeks, who were to be a first fruits of the Gentiles, had never any such opportunity. For their sakes, therefore, to confirm them in the faith, this miraculous voice appears to have come from heaven.
