349

Jesus heard that they had put him out, and finding him, He said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”

350

351

There was much grumbling among the crowds concerning Him; some were saying, “He is a good man”; others were saying, “No, on the contrary, He leads the people astray.”

352

369

So Jesus then said to them plainly, “Lazarus is dead,

371

374

A division occurred again among the Jews because of these words.

376

377

387

He *said to them, “Come, and you will see.” So they came and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

388

Others were saying, “These are not the sayings of one demon-possessed. A demon cannot open the eyes of the blind, can he?”

389

The Jews then were astonished, saying, “How has this man become learned, having never been educated?”

390

it was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple in the portico of Solomon.

391

And they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified, behold, He is baptizing and all are coming to Him.”

392

When He had said this, one of the officers standing nearby struck Jesus, saying, “Is that the way You answer the high priest?”

393

So they *said to the blind man again, “What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?” And he said, “He is a prophet.”

394

Then the Pharisees also were asking him again how he received his sight. And he said to them, “He applied clay to my eyes, and I washed, and I see.”

These words He spoke in the treasury, as He taught in the temple; and no one seized Him, because His hour had not yet come.

396

Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”

399

You yourselves are my witnesses that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent ahead of Him.’

400

So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, to decide whose it shall be”; this was to fulfill the Scripture: “They divided My outer garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.”

401

He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who is seeking the glory of the One who sent Him, He is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

402

Therefore some of the Pharisees were saying, “This man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath.” But others were saying, “How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?” And there was a division among them.

403

Now I have told you before it happens, so that when it happens, you may believe.

404

The sea began to be stirred up because a strong wind was blowing.

406

Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken wrongly, testify of the wrong; but if rightly, why do you strike Me?”

407

Jesus *said to her, I who speak to you am He.”

408

His parents answered them and said, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

409

Did not Moses give you the Law, and yet none of you carries out the Law? Why do you seek to kill Me?”

410

They went out of the city, and were coming to Him.

411

So they were willing to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

412

Jesus answered them, “I did one deed, and you all marvel.

413

“These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; an hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figurative language, but will tell you plainly of the Father.

414

Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off;

415

and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

416

The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

418

and questioned them, saying, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?”

419

Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these.”

421

Then Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat down with His disciples.

422

For this reason also the people went and met Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign.

423

and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

424

They were saying this, testing Him, so that they might have grounds for accusing Him. But Jesus stooped down and with His finger wrote on the ground.

425

Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.

426

But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep.

427

The Jews then did not believe it of him, that he had been blind and had received sight, until they called the parents of the very one who had received his sight,

428

Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.

429

This He was saying to test him, for He Himself knew what He was intending to do.

430

So the woman left her waterpot, and went into the city and *said to the men,

431

There came other small boats from Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

432

The crowd answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill You?”

433

The disciples began looking at one another, at a loss to know of which one He was speaking.

434

but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him; he is of age, he will speak for himself.”

436

He, leaning back thus on Jesus’ bosom, *said to Him, “Lord, who is it?”

437

Look, He is speaking publicly, and they are saying nothing to Him. The rulers do not really know that this is the Christ, do they?

438

For this reason Moses has given you circumcision (not because it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man.

439

He then answered, “Whether He is a sinner, I do not know; one thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.”

440

Again He stooped down and wrote on the ground.

441

I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world.”

442

So they were saying to Him, “Who are You?” Jesus said to them, What have I been saying to you from the beginning?

443

they *said to Him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in adultery, in the very act.

444

Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was near.

445

They did not realize that He had been speaking to them about the Father.

446

In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I will request of the Father on your behalf;

447

If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the Law of Moses will not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made an entire man well on the Sabbath?

448

Martha therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went to meet Him, but Mary stayed at the house.

449

All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.

450

So some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, “Is this not the man whom they are seeking to kill?

451

When she had said this, she went away and called Mary her sister, saying secretly, “The Teacher is here and is calling for you.”

453

Therefore His brothers said to Him, “Leave here and go into Judea, so that Your disciples also may see Your works which You are doing.

454

Jesus then *answered, “That is the one for whom I shall dip the morsel and give it to him.” So when He had dipped the morsel, He *took and *gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

455

So they were seeking to seize Him; and no man laid his hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

457

Philip *came and *told Andrew; Andrew and Philip *came and *told Jesus.

458

A stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”

459

Now we know that You know all things, and have no need for anyone to question You; by this we believe that You came from God.”

460

Now no one of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him.

462

His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed Him to be Christ, he was to be put out of the synagogue.

463

This figure of speech Jesus spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He had been saying to them.

464

So Jesus *said to them, My time is not yet here, but your time is always opportune.

465

So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.

466

So a second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, “Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.”

467

Nathanael *said to Him, “How do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”

468

Therefore, when Mary came where Jesus was, she saw Him, and fell at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”

470

Then He *said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour the disciple took her into his own household.

471

But many of the crowd believed in Him; and they were saying, “When the Christ comes, He will not perform more signs than those which this man has, will He?”

472

When He had said this, He spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and applied the clay to his eyes,

473

Then Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, You both know Me and know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

474

and said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So he went away and washed, and came back seeing.

475

Even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You.”

476

However, we know where this man is from; but whenever the Christ may come, no one knows where He is from.”

477

For no one does anything in secret when he himself seeks to be known publicly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world.”

478

but so that the world may know that I love the Father, I do exactly as the Father commanded Me. Get up, let us go from here.

479

One of the slaves of the high priest, being a relative of the one whose ear Peter cut off, *said, “Did I not see you in the garden with Him?”

480

So Simon Peter *gestured to him, and *said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom He is speaking.”

481

Therefore Pilate went out to them and *said, “What accusation do you bring against this Man?”

482

Behold, an hour is coming, and has already come, for you to be scattered, each to his own home, and to leave Me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

483

Pilate answered, “I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered You to me; what have You done?”

484

to fulfill the word of Jesus which He spoke, signifying by what kind of death He was about to die.

486

So the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first man and of the other who was crucified with Him;

487

And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.

488

Therefore the neighbors, and those who previously saw him as a beggar, were saying, “Is not this the one who used to sit and beg?”

489

So they said to him, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?”

490

They reviled him and said, “You are His disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

491

Others were saying, “This is he,” still others were saying, “No, but he is like him.” He kept saying, “I am the one.”

492

Jesus *answered, “Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times.

493

Meanwhile the disciples were urging Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”

494

For this reason his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”

495

But you have a custom that I release someone for you at the Passover; do you wish then that I release for you the King of the Jews?”

497

He answered them, “I told you already and you did not listen; why do you want to hear it again? You do not want to become His disciples too, do you?”

498

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

499

He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that God is true.

500

The crowd then answered Him, “We have heard out of the Law that the Christ is to remain forever; and how can You say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”

501

We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where He is from.”

502

I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labor.”

503

But the chief priests planned to put Lazarus to death also;

505

Mary then took a pound of very costly perfume of pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped His feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

507

Jesus answered and said, This voice has not come for My sake, but for your sakes.

508

Nicodemus, who had first come to Him by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight.

509

The man answered and said to them, “Well, here is an amazing thing, that you do not know where He is from, and yet He opened my eyes.

510

Now Judas also, who was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often met there with His disciples.

511

Jesus *said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”

512

So after receiving the morsel he went out immediately; and it was night.

513

But He was saying this to indicate the kind of death by which He was to die.

514

And you know the way where I am going.”

515

Therefore He came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a royal official whose son was sick at Capernaum.

516

But Judas Iscariot, one of His disciples, who was intending to betray Him, *said,

517

And the soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on His head, and put a purple robe on Him;

518

As a result of this Pilate made efforts to release Him, but the Jews cried out saying, “If you release this Man, you are no friend of Caesar; everyone who makes himself out to be a king opposes Caesar.”

519

So they made Him a supper there, and Martha was serving; but Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with Him.

520

Judas then, having received the Roman cohort and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, *came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

521

Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’

522

and they were saying to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this One is indeed the Savior of the world.”

523

It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

524

Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together.

525

Therefore when the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.”

527

Now he said this, not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief, and as he had the money box, he used to pilfer what was put into it.

528

Therefore when Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.

529

After a little while the world will no longer see Me, but you will see Me; because I live, you will live also.

530

Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip *said to him, “Come and see.”

531

because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and were believing in Jesus.

532

During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him,

533

The next day the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other small boat there, except one, and that Jesus had not entered with His disciples into the boat, but that His disciples had gone away alone.

534

Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were younger, you used to gird yourself and walk wherever you wished; but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands and someone else will gird you, and bring you where you do not wish to go.”

536

Jesus answered them, Did I Myself not choose you, the twelve, and yet one of you is a devil?”

537

So the sisters sent word to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick.”

538

The man who had died came forth, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus *said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”

541

So they took the body of Jesus and bound it in linen wrappings with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.

543

Truly, truly, I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor is one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.

544

Simon Peter *said to Him, “Lord, where are You going?” Jesus answered, Where I go, you cannot follow Me now; but you will follow later.”

545

Simon Peter then, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s slave, and cut off his right ear; and the slave’s name was Malchus.

546

Jesus then said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread out of heaven.

547

So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes, and said, Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

548

For some were supposing, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we have need of for the feast”; or else, that he should give something to the poor.

549

and led Him to Annas first; for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.

550

His disciples *said, “Lo, now You are speaking plainly and are not using a figure of speech.

551

And He was saying to them, You are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world.

552

These things I have spoken to you so that you may be kept from stumbling.

553

Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,

554

If I alone testify about Myself, My testimony is not true.

555

What He has seen and heard, of that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony.

557

He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.

558

I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness.

559

All things that the Father has are Mine; therefore I said that He takes of Mine and will disclose it to you.

560

When He had said these things, He cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth.”

561

For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak.

562

So when He heard that he was sick, He then stayed two days longer in the place where He was.

563

After the morsel, Satan then entered into him. Therefore Jesus *said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”

564

Therefore the Jews were grumbling about Him, because He said, “I am the bread that came down out of heaven.”

565

The woman *said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming (He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us.”

567

So Peter and the other disciple went forth, and they were going to the tomb.

569

Now it was the day of preparation for the Passover; it was about the sixth hour. And he *said to the Jews, “Behold, your King!”

571

So Pilate *said to Him, “You do not speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You, and I have authority to crucify You?”

573

So they were saying to him, “How then were your eyes opened?”

574

Peter *said to Him, “Never shall You wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.”

575

But He was speaking of the temple of His body.

576

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved *said to Peter, “It is the Lord.” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put his outer garment on (for he was stripped for work), and threw himself into the sea.

577

Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It was written, “JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.”

580

So Jesus, knowing all the things that were coming upon Him, went forth and *said to them, Whom do you seek?”

581

When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when did You get here?”

582

Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered with Jesus into the court of the high priest,

583

So the disciples went away again to their own homes.

584

Thomas *said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, how do we know the way?”

585

Jesus answered, “It was neither that this man sinned, nor his parents; but it was so that the works of God might be displayed in him.

586

Therefore Jesus, lifting up His eyes and seeing that a large crowd was coming to Him, *said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, so that these may eat?”

587

So he then handed Him over to them to be crucified.

588

Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and consoling her, when they saw that Mary got up quickly and went out, they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.

589

How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and you do not seek the glory that is from the one and only God?

590

Pilate *said to Him, “What is truth?”And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews and *said to them, “I find no guilt in Him.

591

Mary Magdalene *came, announcing to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and that He had said these things to her.

592

And Jesus said, For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind.”

593

Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met Him.

594

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and *said of him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!”

595

and I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”

596

One of the two who heard John speak and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

597

They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” And he *said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.”

599

But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”

600

Therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees convened a council, and were saying, “What are we doing? For this man is performing many signs.

601

Jesus answered them and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.

602

But the testimony which I have is greater than the testimony of John; for the works which the Father has given Me to accomplish—the very works that I do—testify about Me, that the Father has sent Me.

603

took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him, and began to shout, “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel.”

604

I know that you are Abraham’s descendants; yet you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you.

605

He who comes from above is above all, he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.

606

But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,

608

When he puts forth all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.

609

Already he who reaps is receiving wages and is gathering fruit for life eternal; so that he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

611

So He *came to Simon Peter. He *said to Him, “Lord, do You wash my feet?”

612

For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have Me.”

613

Peter, turning around, *saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them; the one who also had leaned back on His bosom at the supper and said, “Lord, who is the one who betrays You?”

615

The Jews answered and said to Him, “Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?”

616

The high priest then questioned Jesus about His disciples, and about His teaching.

617

While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of Light.”These things Jesus spoke, and He went away and hid Himself from them.

619

He said, “I am a voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”

620

“Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and given to poor people?”

621

Jesus *said to her, “Mary!” She turned and *said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means, Teacher).

623

You are doing the deeds of your father.” They said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father: God.”

624

Simon Peter went up and drew the net to land, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not torn.

625

Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come forth from God and was going back to God,

626

After the two days He went forth from there into Galilee.

627

“These things I have spoken to you while abiding with you.

630

Go up to the feast yourselves; I do not go up to this feast because My time has not yet fully come.”

631

So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?

632

And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples then rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

633

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, ‘He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.’”

635

He was the lamp that was burning and was shining and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.

637

Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.

639

Simon Peter *said to them, “I am going fishing.” They *said to him, “We will also come with you.” They went out and got into the boat; and that night they caught nothing.

642

And again another Scripture says, “They shall look on Him whom they pierced.”

643

but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper, and brought Peter in.

644

nor do you take into account that it is expedient for you that one man die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”

645

So the crowd of people who stood by and heard it were saying that it had thundered; others were saying, “An angel has spoken to Him.”

646

Therefore Jesus said, “Let her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of My burial.

647

And they *said to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She *said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.”

649

They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus *said to them, If you are Abraham’s children, do the deeds of Abraham.

650

But He said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”

651

But these things I have spoken to you, so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you of them. These things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.

653

and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people have drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.”

654

For their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.

655

So Jesus, again being deeply moved within, *came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.

656

The large crowd of the Jews then learned that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He raised from the dead.

657

So Jesus said to Peter, “Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given Me, shall I not drink it?”

658

Nevertheless many even of the rulers believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they were not confessing Him, for fear that they would be put out of the synagogue;

659

Jesus then came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate *said to them, “Behold, the Man!”

660

Martha then said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

661

For as yet they did not understand the Scripture, that He must rise again from the dead.

663

Pilate came out again and *said to them, “Behold, I am bringing Him out to you so that you may know that I find no guilt in Him.”

664

When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled,

666

Therefore many of the Jews who came to Mary, and saw what He had done, believed in Him.

667

and the face-cloth which had been on His head, not lying with the linen wrappings, but rolled up in a place by itself.

668

So they said to Him, “What then do You do for a sign, so that we may see, and believe You? What work do You perform?

669

Therefore Thomas, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, so that we may die with Him.”

670

*got up from supper, and *laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He girded Himself.

673

John *testified about Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.’”

674

But when the day was now breaking, Jesus stood on the beach; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

675

Then after this He *said to the disciples, Let us go to Judea again.”

676

Jesus *said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” None of the disciples ventured to question Him, “Who are You?” knowing that it was the Lord.

677

So they cried out again, saying, “Not this Man, but Barabbas.” Now Barabbas was a robber.

679

Jesus *said to him, “He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you.”

680

and all things that are Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine; and I have been glorified in them.

681

So the Roman cohort and the commander and the officers of the Jews, arrested Jesus and bound Him,

682

Jesus answered them, “I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?”

683

Then He *poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.

684

Jesus answered them, I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father’s name, these testify of Me.

685

I speak the things which I have seen with My Father; therefore you also do the things which you heard from your father.”

686

these then came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and began to ask him, saying, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.”

687

So when the chief priests and the officers saw Him, they cried out saying, “Crucify, crucify!” Pilate *said to them, “Take Him yourselves and crucify Him, for I find no guilt in Him.”

688

John answered and said, “A man can receive nothing unless it has been given him from heaven.

690

They answered Him, “Jesus the Nazarene.” He *said to them, “I am He.” And Judas also, who was betraying Him, was standing with them.

692

For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

693

Therefore they picked up stones to throw at Him, but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple.

694

They were saying, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does He now say, I have come down out of heaven’?”

695

The two were running together; and the other disciple ran ahead faster than Peter and came to the tomb first;

697

So when they got out on the land, they *saw a charcoal fire already laid and fish placed on it, and bread.

698

When she had said this, she turned around and *saw Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus.

699

From that city many of the Samaritans believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, “He told me all the things that I have done.”

700

But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him.

702

Jesus answered and said to him, “What I do you do not realize now, but you will understand hereafter.”

703

And His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?”

704

And He was saying, “For this reason I have said to you, that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted him from the Father.”

705

Whenever a woman is in labor she has pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish because of the joy that a child has been born into the world.

707

Having said these things to them, He stayed in Galilee.

709

Judas (not Iscariot) *said to Him, “Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?”

711

Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have set your hope.

713

And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was first baptizing, and He was staying there.

715

I myself have seen, and have testified that this is the Son of God.”

716

do you say of Him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?

717

But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and began to teach.

718

Jesus said to them, If you were blind, you would have no sin; but since you say, ‘We see,’ your sin remains.

719

So when He said to them, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

720

Jesus answered him, “I have spoken openly to the world; I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and I spoke nothing in secret.

721

but coming to Jesus, when they saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.

722

But now I come to You; and these things I speak in the world so that they may have My joy made full in themselves.

723

Jesus then took the loaves, and having given thanks, He distributed to those who were seated; likewise also of the fish as much as they wanted.

724

Jesus answered, If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God’;

725

The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by that law He ought to die because He made Himself out to be the Son of God.”

726

For these things came to pass to fulfill the Scripture, “Not a bone of Him shall be broken.”

727

So they cried out, “Away with Him, away with Him, crucify Him!” Pilate *said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar.”

729

And when she heard it, she *got up quickly and was coming to Him.

731

The disciples then said to Him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”

732

Even in your law it has been written that the testimony of two men is true.

733

Now they have come to know that everything You have given Me is from You;

734

He has blinded their eyes and He hardened their heart, so that they would not see with their eyes and perceive with their heart, and be converted and I heal them.”

736

The Jews then gathered around Him, and were saying to Him, “How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.”

737

The Jews picked up stones again to stone Him.

738

Jesus *said, “Remove the stone.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, *said to Him, “Lord, by this time there will be a stench, for he has been dead four days.”

739

Therefore Jesus no longer continued to walk publicly among the Jews, but went away from there to the country near the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim; and there He stayed with the disciples.

740

The Jews then said to one another, “Where does this man intend to go that we will not find Him? He is not intending to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks, is He?

741

Early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people were coming to Him; and He sat down and began to teach them.

742

and they began to come up to Him and say, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and to give Him slaps in the face.

745

and she *saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had been lying.

746

But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.

747

So Pilate said to them, “Take Him yourselves, and judge Him according to your law.” The Jews said to him, “We are not permitted to put anyone to death,”

748

for the words which You gave Me I have given to them; and they received them and truly understood that I came forth from You, and they believed that You sent Me.

749

Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father.

750

So Jesus said to the twelve, “You do not want to go away also, do you?”

751

At this point His disciples came, and they were amazed that He had been speaking with a woman, yet no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why do You speak with her?”

752

I know that His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak just as the Father has told Me.”

753

So Jesus said to them, For a little while longer the Light is among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you; he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes.

754

Father, glorify Your name.” Then a voice came out of heaven: “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.”

755

And so Simon Peter also *came, following him, and entered the tomb; and he *saw the linen wrappings lying there,

756

So Jesus *said to them, “Children, you do not have any fish, do you?” They answered Him, “No.”

757

So the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?”

758

And He said to them, Cast the net on the right-hand side of the boat and you will find a catch.” So they cast, and then they were not able to haul it in because of the great number of fish.

759

So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves got into the small boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

760

The disciples *said to Him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just now seeking to stone You, and are You going there again?”

761

He *said to him again a second time, “Simon, son of John, do you love Me?” He *said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He *said to him, Shepherd My sheep.”

762

So the Jews were seeking Him at the feast and were saying, “Where is He?”

763

Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.

764

Jesus *said to him, “If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me!”

765

Jesus answered, “Are you saying this on your own initiative, or did others tell you about Me?”

766

He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.

768

if God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him immediately.

769

Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the Passover to purify themselves.

770

Straightening up, Jesus said to her, “Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?”

771

The Pharisees heard the crowd muttering these things about Him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to seize Him.

773

Now Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it was expedient for one man to die on behalf of the people.

774

Now he did not say this on his own initiative, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation,

776

So they were saying to Him, “Where is Your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither Me nor My Father; if you knew Me, you would know My Father also.”

777

and stooping and looking in, he *saw the linen wrappings lying there; but he did not go in.

778

Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the descendants of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?”

779

So the other disciple who had first come to the tomb then also entered, and he saw and believed.

780

If we let Him go on like this, all men will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

781

The officers answered, “Never has a man spoken the way this man speaks.”

783

Now the slaves and the officers were standing there, having made a charcoal fire, for it was cold and they were warming themselves; and Peter was also with them, standing and warming himself.

784

This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”

785

So she *ran and *came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and *said to them, “They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him.”

786

So Peter seeing him *said to Jesus, “Lord, and what about this man?”

788

Peter *said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You right now? I will lay down my life for You.”

789

Now He meant Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was going to betray Him.

790

Nicodemus (he who came to Him before, being one of them) *said to them,

792

to fulfill the word which He spoke, Of those whom You have given Me I lost not one.”

793

and he entered into the Praetorium again and *said to Jesus, “Where are You from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.

794

So when the Samaritans came to Jesus, they were asking Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

795

They answered Him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never yet been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, ‘You will become free’?”

796

This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die.

798

You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.

799

They answered him, “You were born entirely in sins, and are you teaching us?” So they put him out.

800

Then the slave-girl who kept the door *said to Peter, “You are not also one of this man’s disciples, are you?” He *said, “I am not.”

802

Simon Peter *said to Him, “Lord, then wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my head.”

803

This is the disciple who is testifying to these things and wrote these things, and we know that his testimony is true.

804

Jesus *said to her, Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” Supposing Him to be the gardener, she *said to Him, “Sir, if you have carried Him away, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take Him away.”

805

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

806

Then they said to Him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”

807

Then the Jews began to argue with one another, saying, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”

808

A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth.

809

But as it is, you are seeking to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God; this Abraham did not do.

811

Therefore because of the Jewish day of preparation, since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.

812

What then if you see the Son of Man ascending to where He was before?

813

I knew that You always hear Me; but because of the people standing around I said it, so that they may believe that You sent Me.”

814

As He spoke these things, many came to believe in Him.

816

Some of the people therefore, when they heard these words, were saying, “This certainly is the Prophet.”

817

There is another who testifies of Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.

818

So the disciples were saying to one another, “No one brought Him anything to eat, did he?”

819

They answered him, “You are not also from Galilee, are you? Search, and see that no prophet arises out of Galilee.”

821

But some of them said, “Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have kept this man also from dying?”

822

But the testimony which I receive is not from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved.

824

Jesus answered and said to them, “Do not grumble among yourselves.

825

But I said to you that you have seen Me, and yet do not believe.

826

The officers then came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why did you not bring Him?”

827

This is now the third time that Jesus was manifested to the disciples, after He was raised from the dead.

828

When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was imploring Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.

829

The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son does remain forever.

830

Jesus *came and *took the bread and *gave it to them, and the fish likewise.

831

They answered and said to him, “If this Man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him to you.”

832

Jesus *said to him, Go; your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and started off.

833

Others were saying, “This is the Christ.” Still others were saying, “Surely the Christ is not going to come from Galilee, is He?

834

For this reason they could not believe, for Isaiah said again,

835

For in this case the saying is true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’

837

The Jews said to Him, “Now we know that You have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets also; and You say, ‘If anyone keeps My word, he will never taste of death.’

838

You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.”

839

Those of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these things and said to Him, “We are not blind too, are we?”

840

But I do not seek My glory; there is One who seeks and judges.

842

So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things that He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they themselves also went to the feast.

843

So from that day on they planned together to kill Him.

845

These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.

846

Therefore when Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid;

847

What is this statement that He said, You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come’?”

848

Jesus *said to them, “Bring some of the fish which you have now caught.”

849

But the other disciples came in the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but about one hundred yards away, dragging the net full of fish.

850

Jesus answered, “I told you that I am He; so if you seek Me, let these go their way,”

851

So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. Then they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”

852

This is the bread which came down out of heaven; not as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live forever.”

853

Therefore He again asked them, Whom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus the Nazarene.”

854

Therefore they were seeking again to seize Him, and He eluded their grasp.

855

But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”

856

So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives”; and he himself believed and his whole household.

857

But Jesus, conscious that His disciples grumbled at this, said to them, “Does this cause you to stumble?

858

Many came to Him and were saying, “While John performed no sign, yet everything John said about this man was true.”

859

Surely You are not greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets died too; whom do You make Yourself out to be?”

860

Since the beginning of time it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a person born blind.

861

This is again a second sign that Jesus performed when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

862

and you have not come to know Him, but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know Him and keep His word.

863

The royal official *said to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”

864

No one of the rulers or Pharisees has believed in Him, has he?

865

Our Law does not judge a man unless it first hears from him and knows what he is doing, does it?”

867

Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

868

So a division occurred in the crowd because of Him.

869

As he was now going down, his slaves met him, saying that his son was living.

870

and said, “Where have you laid him?” They *said to Him, “Lord, come and see.”

871

Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him, and He is the one who is talking with you.”

872

But this crowd which does not know the Law is accursed.”

873

He answered, “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?”

874

Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where He was, he was to report it, so that they might seize Him.

875

If this man were not from God, He could do nothing.”

876

But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them the things which Jesus had done.

877

The Pharisees then answered them, “You have not also been led astray, have you?

878

Some of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

879

So they were seeking for Jesus, and were saying to one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think; that He will not come to the feast at all?”
