And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent out of Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they might question him, 'Who art thou?'

And they questioned him, 'What then? Elijah art thou?' and he saith, 'I am not.' -- 'The prophet art thou?' and he answered, 'No.'

They said then to him, 'Who art thou, that we may give an answer to those sending us? what dost thou say concerning thyself?'

and they questioned him and said to him, 'Why, then, dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?'

and the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.

And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, saith to them, 'What seek ye?' and they said to them, 'Rabbi, (which is, being interpreted, Teacher,) where remainest thou?'

He saith to them, 'Come and see;' they came, and saw where he doth remain, and with him they remained that day and the hour was about the tenth.

and wine having failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, 'Wine they have not;'

Jesus saith to them, 'Fill the water-jugs with water;' and they filled them -- unto the brim;

and he saith to them, 'Draw out, now, and bear to the director of the apartment;' and they bare.

and saith to him, 'Every man, at first, the good wine doth set forth; and when they may have drunk freely, then the inferior; thou didst keep the good wine till now.'

after this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples; and there they remained not many days.

when, then, he was raised out of the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this to them, and they believed the Writing, and the word that Jesus said.

but he who is doing the truth doth come to the light, that his works may be manifested, that in God they are having been wrought.'

and John was also baptizing in Aenon, nigh to Salem, because there were many waters there, and they were coming and were being baptized --

and they came unto John, and said to him, 'Rabbi, he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou didst testify, lo, this one is baptizing, and all are coming unto him.'

for his disciples were gone away to the city, that they may buy victuals;

They went forth therefore out of the city, and were coming unto him.

do not say that it is yet four months, and the harvest cometh; lo, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and see the fields, that they are white unto harvest already.

When, then, the Samaritans came unto him, they were asking him to remain with them, and he remained there two days;

when then, he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all things that he did in Jerusalem in the feast -- for they also went to the feast.

he inquired then of them the hour in which he became better, and they said to him -- 'Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him;'

they questioned him, then, 'Who is the man who is saying to thee, Take up thy couch and be walking?'

that all may honour the Son according as they honour the Father; he who is not honouring the Son, doth not honour the Father who sent him.

and they shall come forth; those who did the good things to a rising again of life, and those who practised the evil things to a rising again of judgment.

'But I have the testimony greater than John's, for the works that the Father gave me, that I might finish them, the works themselves that I do, they testify concerning me, that the Father hath sent me.

'Ye search the Writings, because ye think in them to have life age-during, and these are they that are testifying concerning me;

and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;

There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these -- what are they to so many?'

and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.

And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, 'Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;'

they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.

Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.

and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,

having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;

they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.

(and other little boats came from Tiberias, nigh the place where they did eat the bread, the Lord having given thanks),

when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor his disciples, they also themselves did enter into the boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus;

and having found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, 'Rabbi, when hast thou come hither?'

They said therefore unto him, 'What may we do that we may work the works of God?'

They said therefore to him, 'What sign, then, dost thou, that we may see and may believe thee? what dost thou work?

They said, therefore, unto him, 'Sir, always give us this bread.'

and they said, 'Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then saith this one -- Out of the heaven I have come down?'

it is having been written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God; every one therefore who heard from the Father, and learned, cometh to me;

your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died;

the spirit it is that is giving life; the flesh doth not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;

but there are certain of you who do not believe;' for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver him up,

Certain, therefore, of the Jerusalemites said, 'Is not this he whom they are seeking to kill?

and, lo, he doth speak freely, and they say nothing to him; did the rulers at all know truly that this is truly the Christ?

They were seeking, therefore, to seize him, and no one laid the hand on him, because his hour had not yet come,

The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they may take him;

the officers came, therefore, unto the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, 'Wherefore did ye not bring him?'

They answered and said to him, 'Art thou also out of Galilee? search and see, that a prophet out of Galilee hath not risen;'

they say to him, 'Teacher, this woman was taken in the very crime -- committing adultery,

and this they said, trying him, that they might have to accuse him. And Jesus, having stooped down, with the finger he was writing on the ground,

and when they continued asking him, having bent himself back, he said unto them, 'The sinless of you -- let him first cast the stone at her;'

and they having heard, and by the conscience being convicted, were going forth one by one, having begun from the elders -- unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

They said, therefore, to him, 'Where is thy father?' Jesus answered, 'Ye have neither known me nor my Father: if me ye had known, my Father also ye had known.'

They said, therefore, to him, 'Thou -- who art thou?' and Jesus said to them, 'Even what I did speak of to you at the beginning;

They knew not that of the Father he spake to them;

They answered him, 'Seed of Abraham we are; and to no one have we been servants at any time; how dost thou say -- Ye shall become free?'

They answered and said to him, 'Our father is Abraham;' Jesus saith to them, 'If children of Abraham ye were, the works of Abraham ye were doing;

ye do the works of your father.' They said, therefore, to him, 'We of whoredom have not been born; one Father we have -- God;'

they took up, therefore, stones that they may cast at him, but Jesus hid himself, and went forth out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

They said, therefore, to him, 'How were thine eyes opened?'

they said, therefore, to him, 'Where is that one?' he saith, 'I have not known.'

They bring him to the Pharisees who once was blind,

They said to the blind man again, 'Thou -- what dost thou say of him -- that he opened thine eyes?'

and he said -- 'He is a prophet.' The Jews, therefore, did not believe concerning him that he was blind and did receive sight, till that they called the parents of him who received sight,

and they asked them, saying, 'Is your son, of whom ye say that he was born blind? how then now doth he see?'

These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews, for already had the Jews agreed together, that if any one may confess him -- Christ, he may be put out of the synagogue;

They called, therefore, a second time the man who was blind, and they said to him, 'Give glory to God, we have known that this man is a sinner;'

And they said to him again, 'What did he to thee? how did he open thine eyes?'

They reviled him, therefore, and said, 'Thou art his disciple, and we are Moses' disciples;

They answered and said to him, 'In sins thou wast born altogether, and thou dost teach us!' and they cast him forth without.

Jesus heard that they cast him forth without, and having found him, he said to him, 'Dost thou believe in the Son of God?'

And those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, 'Are we also blind?'

and when his own sheep he may put forth, before them he goeth on, and the sheep follow him, because they have known his voice;

and a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him, because they have not known the voice of strangers.'

This similitude spake Jesus to them, and they knew not what the things were that he was speaking to them;

The thief doth not come, except that he may steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.

and other sheep I have that are not of this fold, these also it behoveth me to bring, and my voice they will hear, and there shall become one flock -- one shepherd.

according as I said to you: My sheep my voice do hear, and I know them, and they follow me,

and life age-during I give to them, and they shall not perish -- to the age, and no one shall pluck them out of my hand;

Therefore, again, did the Jews take up stones that they may stone him;

Therefore were they seeking again to seize him, and he went forth out of their hand,

but Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that about the repose of sleep he speaketh.

and many of the Jews had come unto Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother;

'Where have ye laid him?' they say to him, 'Sir, come and see;'

They took away, therefore, the stone where the dead was laid, and Jesus lifted his eyes upwards, and said, 'Father, I thank Thee, that Thou didst hear me;

and I knew that Thou always dost hear me, but, because of the multitude that is standing by, I said it, that they may believe that Thou didst send me.'

From that day, therefore, they took counsel together that they may kill him;

And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the passover, that they might purify themselves;

they were seeking, therefore, Jesus, and said one with another, standing in the temple, 'What doth appear to you -- that he may not come to the feast?'

and both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if any one may know where he is, he may shew it, so that they may seize him.

they made, therefore, to him a supper there, and Martha was ministering, and Lazarus was one of those reclining together (at meat) with him;

A great multitude, therefore, of the Jews knew that he is there, and they came, not because of Jesus only, but that Lazarus also they may see, whom he raised out of the dead;

and the chief priests took counsel, that also Lazarus they may kill,

And these things his disciples did not know at the first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were having been written about him, and these things they did to him.

because of this also did the multitude meet him, because they heard of his having done this sign,
