But as many as received him--to those who believe in his name--he gave to them authority to become children of God,

And the Word became flesh and took up residence among us, and we saw his glory, glory as of the one and only from the Father, full of grace and truth.

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem so that they could ask him, "Who are you?"

He said, "I [am] 'the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, "Make straight the way of the Lord," ' just as Isaiah the prophet said."

and looking at Jesus [as he] was walking by, he said, "Look! The Lamb of God!"

And just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, thus it is necessary [that] the Son of Man be lifted up,

So the Samaritan woman said to him, "How do you, being a Jew, ask from me [water] to drink, [since I] am a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

Now [as] he was going down, his slaves met him, saying that his child was alive.

For just as the Father raises the dead and makes [them] alive, thus also the Son makes alive whomever he wishes.

in order that all [people] will honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

For just as the Father has life in himself, thus also he has granted to the Son to have life in himself.

I am able to do nothing from myself. Just as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my [own] will, but the will of the one who sent me.

Then Jesus took the bread, and [after he] had given thanks, he distributed [it] to those who were reclining--likewise also of the fish, as much as they wanted.

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, just as it is written, 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'

Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, [so] also the one who eats me--that one will live because of me.

This is the bread that came down from heaven, not as the fathers ate and died. The one who eats this bread will live {forever}."

But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not openly, but (as it were) in secret.

the one who believes in me. Just as the scripture said, 'Out of his belly will flow rivers of living water.'"

Then Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will recognize that I am [he], and I do nothing from myself, but just as the Father taught me, I say these [things].

And [as he] went away, he saw a man blind from birth.

But how he now sees we do not know, or who opened his eyes we do not know. Ask him! {He is a mature adult}; he will speak for himself!"

Because of this his parents said, "{He is a mature adult}; ask him.")

just as the Father knows me and I know the Father, and I lay down my life for the sheep.

Even now I know that whatever you ask God, God will grant you."

So Jesus found a young donkey [and] sat on it, just as it is written,

But as many signs [as] he had performed before them, they did not believe in him,

I have come [as] a light into the world, in order that everyone who believes in me will not remain in the darkness.

And I know that his commandment is eternal life. So [the things] that I say, just as the Father said to me, thus I say."

And [as] a dinner was taking place, [when] the devil had already put into the heart of Judas [son] of Simon Iscariot that he should betray him,

For I have given you an example, that just as I have done for you, you also do.

Children, yet a little [time] I am with you. You will seek me and just as I said to the Jews, "Where I am going you cannot come," now I say also to you.

"A new commandment I give to you: that you love one another--just as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

And {whatever} you ask in my name, I will do this, in order that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

If you ask me anything in my name, I will do [it].

And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, in order that he may be with you {forever}--

"I will not leave you [as] orphans; I am coming to you.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you--not as the world gives, I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let [them] be afraid.

But so that the world may know that I love the Father, and just as the Father has commanded me, thus I am doing. Get up, let us go from here!

Remain in me, and I in you. Just as the branch is not able to bear fruit from itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither [can] you, unless you remain in me.

If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and dries up, and they gather them and throw [them] into the fire, and they are burned.

If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you.

"Just as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.

If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and remain in his love.

This is my commandment: that you love one another just as I have loved you.

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and your fruit should remain, in order that whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.

Jesus knew that they were wanting to ask him, and he said to them, "Are you deliberating with one another about this--that I said, 'A little [while], and you will not see me, and again a little [while] and you will see me'?

And on that day you will ask me nothing. Truly, truly I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you.

Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.

On that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf.

Now we know that you know everything and do not {need for} anyone to ask you [questions]. By this we believe that you have come from God."

just as you have given him authority over all flesh, in order that he would give eternal life to them--everyone whom you have given him.

And I am no longer in the world, and they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given to me, so that they may be one, just as we [are].

I have given them your word, and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world just as I am not of the world.

I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you protect them from the evil one.

They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

Just as you sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.

"And I do not ask on behalf of these only, but also on behalf of those who believe in me through their word,

that they all may be one, just as you, Father, [are] in me and I [am] in you, that they also may be in us, in order that the world may believe that you sent me.

And the glory that you have given to me, I have given to them, in order that they may be one, just as we [are] one--

I in them, and you in me, in order that they may be completed in one, so that the world may know that you sent me, and you have loved them just as you have loved me.

Why are you asking me? Ask those who heard what I have said to them! Behold, these [people] know what I said."

So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in [strips of] linen cloth with the fragrant spices, as is the Jews' custom to prepare for burial.

So Jesus said to them again, "Peace to you. As the Father has sent me, I also send you."

Jesus said to them, "Come, eat breakfast!" But none of the disciples dared to ask him, "Who are you?" [because they] knew that it was the Lord.
