Jesus turned around and saw them following and said to them, "What do you want?" So they said to him, "Rabbi" (which is translated Teacher), "where are you staying?"

Now at that very moment his disciples came back. They were shocked because he was speaking with a woman. However, no one said, "What do you want?" or "Why are you speaking with her?"

When Jesus saw him lying there and when he realized that the man had been disabled a long time already, he said to him, "Do you want to become well?"

So Jesus said to the twelve, "You don't want to go away too, do you?"

If anyone wants to do God's will, he will know about my teaching, whether it is from God or whether I speak from my own authority.

Hasn't Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps the law! Why do you want to kill me?"

I know that you are Abraham's descendants. But you want to kill me, because my teaching makes no progress among you.

You people are from your father the devil, and you want to do what your father desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.

He answered, "I told you already and you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You people don't want to become his disciples too, do you?"

If anyone wants to serve me, he must follow me, and where I am, my servant will be too. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

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

"Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, so that they can see my glory that you gave me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

But it is your custom that I release one prisoner for you at the Passover. So do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?"

I tell you the solemn truth, when you were young, you tied your clothes around you and went wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and others will tie you up and bring you where you do not want to go."

Jesus replied, "If I want him to live until I come back, what concern is that of yours? You follow me!"

So the saying circulated among the brothers and sisters that this disciple was not going to die. But Jesus did not say to him that he was not going to die, but rather, "If I want him to live until I come back, what concern is that of yours?"
