And having said this, she went away, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Teacher is here and calleth for thee.

Jesus saith, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him, Lord, by this time the body is offensive; for he hath been dead four days.

Yet I knew that thou hearest me always; but for the sake of the multitude standing around I said it, that they might believe that thou didst send me.

nor do ye consider that it is expedient for us that one man die for the people, and not the whole nation perish.

and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together in one body the children of God that are scattered abroad.

They sought therefore for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye? that he will not come to the feast?

They made therefore a supper for him there, and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of those who reclined at the table with him.

Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denaries, and given to the poor?

And this he said, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and kept the purse, and bore what was put therein.

"Fear not, daughter of Zion! lo! thy king cometh, sitting on an asss colt."

For this cause also the multitude met him, because they had heard that he had wrought, this sign.

Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour! But for this cause I came to this hour.

Jesus answered and said, This voice hath come not for my sake, but for yours.

The multitude therefore answered him, We have heard out of the Law that the Christ abideth for ever; how then dost thou say that the Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

Jesus answereth, It is he for whom I shall dip the morsel and give it to him. Having therefore dipped the morsel, he taketh and giveth it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

Now no one at the table knew for what intent he said this to him.

For some thought, because Judas kept the purse, that Jesus said to him, Buy what we need for the feast; or that he should give something to the poor.

By this will all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one for another.

Peter saith to him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.

In my Fathers house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. For I go away to prepare a place for you;

and when I have gone away and prepared a place for you, I will come again, and will take you to myself; that where I am, ye also may be.

Believe me, that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; but if not, believe for the very works sake.

and I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever;

I shall not talk much more with you. For the prince of the world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

I am the vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit; for apart from me ye can do nothing.

If any one abideth not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather it, and cast it into the fire, and it is burned.

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever ye will, and it shall be done for you.

He will glorify me, for he will receive of what is mine, and will tell it to you.

Every thing that the Father hath is mine. For this cause I said, that he receiveth of what is mine, and will tell it to you.

In that day ye will ask in my name; and I do not tell you that I will pray the Father for you;

for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God.

for I have given to them the words which thou hast given me; and they received them, and knew surely that I came forth from thee, and believed that thou didst send me.

I pray for them; I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine;

Yet not for these alone do I pray, but also for those who believe in me through their word;

Pilate therefore said to them, Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him, It is not lawful for us to put any one to death.

Pilate therefore said to him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest what is true; for I am a king. For this end have I been born, and for this cause have I come into the world, that I may bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth listeneth to my voice.

When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify! crucify! Pilate saith to them, Take him yourselves, and crucify him; for I find nothing criminal in him.

Jesus answered, Thou wouldst have no power against me, unless it had been given thee from above; for this cause he that delivered me up to thee hath the greater sin.

This inscription therefore was read by many of the Jews; for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.

Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts, to every soldier a part, and also his coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be. That the scripture might be fulfilled: "They parted my garments among them, and for my vesture they cast lots." These things the soldiers did.

The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies might not remain upon the cross on the sabbath, for that sabbath was a great day, besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

For these things came to pass, that the scripture might be fulfilled, "A bone of him shall not be broken."

And after this, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but concealing it for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. They came therefore and took him away.

Then they took the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the manner of the Jews in preparing for burial.

And he said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye will find. And they cast it, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of the fishes.

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith to Peter, It is the Lord. Simon Peter therefore, hearing that it was the Lord, girded on his outer garment, for he had on nothing but his under one, and threw himself into the lake.

And the other disciples came in the boat, (for they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with the fishes.

When therefore they had come to land, they see a fire of coals there, and a fish lying thereon, and bread.

And while in assembly with them, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for what had been promised by the Father, which [said he] ye heard from me;

And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;
