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,

and he said, 'Because of this I have said to you -- No one is able to come unto me, if it may not have been given him from my Father.'

Jesus answered them, 'Did not I choose you -- the twelve? and of you -- one is a devil.

And Jesus was walking after these things in Galilee, for he did not wish to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him,

for not even were his brethren believing in him.

Jesus, therefore, saith to them, 'My time is not yet present, but your time is always ready;

the world is not able to hate you, but me it doth hate, because I testify concerning it that its works are evil.

Ye -- go ye up to this feast; I do not yet go up to this feast, because my time hath not yet been fulfilled;'

And when his brethren went up, then also he himself went up to the feast, not manifestly, but as in secret;

and the Jews were wondering, saying, 'How hath this one known letters -- not having learned?'

Jesus answered them and said, 'My teaching is not mine, but His who sent me;

'He who is speaking from himself his own glory doth seek, but he who is seeking the glory of him who sent him, this one is true, and unrighteousness is not in him;

hath not Moses given you the law? and none of you doth the law; why me do ye seek to kill?'

because of this, Moses hath given you the circumcision -- not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers -- and on a sabbath ye circumcise a man;

if a man doth receive circumcision on a sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye wroth with me that I made a man all whole on a sabbath?

judge not according to appearance, but the righteous judgment judge.'

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

Jesus cried, therefore, in the temple, teaching and saying, 'Ye have both known me, and ye have known whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but He who sent me is true, whom ye have not known;

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

ye will seek me, and ye shall not find; and where I am, ye are not able to come.'

The Jews, therefore, said among themselves, 'Whither is this one about to go that we shall not find him? -- to the dispersion of the Greeks is he about to go? and to teach the Greeks;

what is this word that he said, Ye will seek me, and ye shall not find? and, Where I am, ye are not able to come?'

and this he said of the Spirit, which those believing in him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Did not the Writing say, that out of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem -- the village where David was -- the Christ doth come?'

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

but this multitude, that is not knowing the law, is accursed.'

Nicodemus saith unto them -- he who came by night unto him -- being one of them,

'Doth our law judge the man, if it may not hear from him first, and know what he doth?'

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

Again, therefore, Jesus spake to them, saying, 'I am the light of the world; he who is following me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the light of the life.'

The Pharisees, therefore, said to him, 'Thou of thyself dost testify, thy testimony is not true;'

Jesus answered and said to them, 'And if I testify of myself -- my testimony is true, because I have known whence I came, and whither I go, and ye -- ye have not known whence I come, or whither I go.

'Ye according to the flesh do judge; I do not judge any one,

and even if I do judge my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me;

These sayings spake Jesus in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come;

therefore said Jesus again to them, 'I go away, and ye will seek me, and in your sin ye shall die; whither I go away, ye are not able to come.'

The Jews, therefore, said, 'Will he kill himself, because he saith, Whither I go away, ye are not able to come?'

and he said to them, 'Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world;

I said, therefore, to you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye may not believe that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.'

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

and He who sent me is with me; the Father did not leave me alone, because I, the things pleasing to Him, do always.'

and the servant doth not remain in the house -- to the age, the son doth remain -- to the age;

and now, ye seek to kill me -- a man who hath spoken to you the truth I heard from God; this Abraham did not;

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

wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.

Ye are of a father -- the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar -- also his father.

'And because I say the truth, ye do not believe me.

Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me?

he who is of God, the sayings of God he doth hear; because of this ye do not hear, because of God ye are not.'

The Jews, therefore, answered and said to him, 'Do we not say well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?'

Jesus answered, 'I have not a demon, but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me;

and I do not seek my own glory; there is who is seeking and is judging;

verily, verily, I say to you, If any one may keep my word, death he may not see -- to the age.'

The Jews, therefore, said to him, 'Now we have known that thou hast a demon; Abraham did die, and the prophets, and thou dost say, If any one may keep my word, he shall not taste of death -- to the age!

and ye have not known Him, and I have known Him, and if I say that I have not known Him, I shall be like you -- speaking falsely; but I have known Him, and His word I keep;

The Jews, therefore, said unto him, 'Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?'

it behoveth me to be working the works of Him who sent me while it is day; night doth come, when no one is able to work: --

the neighbours, therefore, and those seeing him before, that he was blind, said, 'Is not this he who is sitting and begging?'

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

Of the Pharisees, therefore, certain said, 'This man is not from God, because the sabbath he doth not keep;' others said, 'How is a man -- a sinful one -- able to do such signs?' and there was a division among them.

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 how he now seeth, we have not known; or who opened his eyes, we have not known; himself is of age, ask him; he himself shall speak concerning himself.'

he answered, therefore, and said, 'If he be a sinner -- I have not known, one thing I have known, that, being blind, now I see.'

He answered them, 'I told you already, and ye did not hear; why again do ye wish to hear? do ye also wish to become his disciples?'

we have known that God hath spoken to Moses, but this one -- we have not known whence he is.'

The man answered and said to them, 'Why, in this is a wonderful thing, that ye have not known whence he is, and he opened my eyes!

and we have known that God doth not hear sinners, but, if any one may be a worshipper of God, and may do His will, him He doth hear;

from the age it was not heard, that any one did open eyes of one who hath been born blind;

if this one were not from God, he were not able to do anything.'

And Jesus said, 'For judgment I to this world did come, that those not seeing may see, and those seeing may become blind.'

Jesus said to them, 'If ye were blind, ye were not having had sin, but now ye say -- We see, therefore doth your sin remain.

'Verily, verily, I say to you, He who is not entering through the door to the fold of the sheep, but is going up from another side, that one is a thief and a robber;

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;

all, as many as came before me, are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear 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 the hireling, and not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, doth behold the wolf coming, and doth leave the sheep, and doth flee; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep;

and the hireling doth flee because he is an hireling, and is not caring for the sheep.

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.

others said, 'These sayings are not those of a demoniac; is a demon able blind men's eyes to open?'

Jesus answered them, 'I told you, and ye do not believe; the works that I do in the name of my Father, these testify concerning me;

but ye do not believe, for ye are not of my sheep,

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;

The Jews answered him, saying, 'For a good work we do not stone thee, but for evil speaking, and because thou, being a man, dost make thyself God.'

Jesus answered them, 'Is it not having been written in your law: I said, ye are gods?

if them he did call gods unto whom the word of God came, (and the Writing is not able to be broken,)

if I do not the works of my Father, do not believe me;

and if I do, even if me ye may not believe, the works believe, that ye may know and may believe that in me is the Father, and I in Him.'

and Jesus having heard, said, 'This ailment is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.'

Jesus answered, 'Are there not twelve hours in the day? if any one may walk in the day, he doth not stumble, because the light of this world he doth see;

and if any one may walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.'

and I rejoice, for your sake, (that ye may believe,) that I was not there; but we may go to him;'

Martha, therefore, said unto Jesus, 'Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;

and every one who is living and believing in me shall not die -- to the age;

and Jesus had not yet come to the village, but was in the place where Martha met him;

Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, having seen him, fell at his feet, saying to him, 'Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;'

and certain of them said, 'Was not this one, who did open the eyes of the blind man, able to cause that also this one might not have died?'

Jesus saith to her, 'Said I not to thee, that if thou mayest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?'

and a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being chief priest of that year, said to them, 'Ye have not known anything,
