I no longer call you bondmen, because the bondman does not know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I made known to you.

Ye did not choose out me, but I chose out you, and appointed you, so that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit may remain, so that anything whatever ye may ask of the Father in my name, he may give you.

If ye were of the world, the world would love its own, but because ye are not of the world (instead I chose you out of the world), because of this the world hates you.

Remember the word that I said to you, A bondman is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they kept my word, they will keep yours also.

But all these things they will do to you because of my name, because they have not known him who sent me.

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

If I had not done among them the works that no other man has done, they would not have had sin, but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

I have spoken these things to you, so that ye may not be caused to stumble.

And they will do these things, because they have not known the Father nor me.

But I have told you these things, so that when the hour comes, ye may remember that I told you of them. But I did not tell you these things from the beginning because I was with you.

Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I depart, for if I do not depart, the helper will not come to you. But whenever I go, I will send him to you.

About sin because they truly did not believe in me,

However when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. For he will not speak from himself, but as many things as he may hear, he will speak. And he will report to you the things that are coming.

A little while, and ye do not look at me. Again a little while, and ye will see me, because I go to the Father.

Therefore some of his disciples said among themselves, What is this that he says to us, A little while, and ye do not look at me, and, Again a little while, and ye will see me, and, Because I go to the Father?

They said therefore What is this that he says, A little while? We know not what he says.

Therefore Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, Do ye inquire among yourselves about this, because I said, A little while, and ye do not look at me, and, Again a little while, and ye will see me?

In that day ye will ask in my name, and I do not say to you, that I will pray the Father about you,

His disciples say to him, Lo, now thou speak plainly, and speak not one veiled word.

Now we know that thou know all things, and have no need that any man should question thee. By this we believe that thou came forth from God.

Behold, the hour comes, and now has come, that ye will be scattered, each man to his own things, and ye will leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

I pray about them. I do not pray about the world, but about whom thou have given me, because they are for thee.

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

I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil.

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

And I pray not about these only, but also about those who believe in me through their word,

And righteous Father, the world does not know thee, but I know thee, and these know that thou sent me.

so that the word that he spoke might be fulfilled, Of whom thou have given me, I lost, no, not one of them.

Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath. The cup that the Father has given me, shall I, no, not drink it?

Therefore the servant girl (the doorkeeper) says to Peter, Are thou not also of this man's disciples? That man says, I am not.

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. Therefore they said to him, Are thou not also of his disciples? That man therefore denied, and said, I am not.

One of the bondmen of the high priest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, says, Did I not see thee in the garden with him?

They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas to the Praetorium. And it was early, and they did not enter into the Praetorium, so that they would not be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.

They answered and said to him, If this man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered him up to thee.

Pilate therefore said to them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him, It is not permitted for us to kill any man,

Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world my subordinates would have fought so that I would not be delivered to the Jews, but now my kingdom is not from here.

Pilate says to him, What is truth? And having said this, he went out again to the Jews, and says to them, I find not one cause in him.

They all cried out again therefore, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. But Barabbas was a robber.

Therefore Pilate again went forth outside, and says to them, Behold, I bring him out to you, so that ye may know that I find not one cause in him.

Pilate therefore says to him, Thou do not speak to me? Know thou not that I have authority to crucify thee, and I have authority to release thee?

From this Pilate sought to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou release this man, thou are not Caesar's friend. Every man who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar.

Therefore the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Do not write, The king of the Jews, but, That man said I am king of the Jews.

They said therefore among themselves, Let us not divide it, but cast lots for it, whose it will be, so that the scripture might be fulfilled, which says, They parted my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots. There

The Jews therefore, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath, since it was Preparation (for it was the high day of that Sabbath), they besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and they might be remove

But having come to Jesus, when they saw him now having died, they did not break his legs.

For these things happened so that the scripture might be fulfilled, Not a bone of him will be broken.

And Nicodemus also came (he who at the first came to Jesus by night) bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

Therefore she runs and comes to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and says to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulcher, and we know not where they have laid him.

And after stooping down, he sees the linen cloths lying, yet he entered not.

and the face cloth that was on his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but wrapped up in one place separately.

For they had not yet known the scripture that he must rise from the dead.

And those men say to her, Woman, why weep thou? She says to them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.

And having said these things, she turned backward, and sees Jesus standing. And she had not known that it is Jesus.

Jesus says to her, Do not touch me, for I have not yet ascended to my Father. But go to my brothers, and say to them, I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.

But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

Then he says to Thomas, Bring thy finger here, and see my hands, and bring thy hand, and put into my side, and do not become faithless, but believing.

Jesus says to him, Because thou have seen me, thou have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen, and have believed.

And indeed therefore many other signs Jesus did in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book.

Simon Peter says to them, I am going to harvest fish. They say to him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and straightaway entered into the boat. And in that night they caught nothing.

But having now become morning, Jesus stood on the shore. However the disciples had not seen that it was Jesus.

And he said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye will find. Therefore they cast, and they were no longer able to draw it for the magnitude of fishes.

And the other disciples came in the skiff (for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits off), dragging the net of the fishes.

Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty-three. And being so many, the net was not broken.

Truly, truly, I say to thee, When thou were younger, thou girded thyself, and walked where thou would, but when thou become old, thou will stretch forth thy hands, and another will gird thee, and carry thee where thou do not want.

This saying therefore went forth among the brothers, that that disciple does not die. And yet Jesus did not say to him, that he does not die, but, If I want him to remain until I come, what is it to thee?

And there are also many other things, as many as Jesus did, which if they would be written every one, I suppose not even the world itself to make room for the books being written. Truly.

And being assembled together, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, Which, he said, ye heard from me.

Because John indeed immersed in water, but ye will be immersed in Holy Spirit after not many of these days.

And he said to them, It is not for you to know times or seasons, which the Father established in his own authority.

And they were amazed and marveled, saying to each other, Behold, are not all these men who speak Galileans?

For these men are not drunken, as ye suppose, for it is the third hour of the day.

whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.

For David speaks for him: I beheld the Lord always before me, because he is at my right hand, so that I may not be moved.

Because thou will not leave my soul in Hades, nor will thou give thy Holy man to see decay.

Having foreseen this, he spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that his soul was not left behind in Hades, nor did his flesh see decay.

For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand

And they sold properties and possessions, and divided them to all, according as any man had need.

And every soul, whichever it will be, if it will not hear that prophet will be utterly destroyed from the people.

And salvation is not in any other man, for there is no other name under the heaven, that has been given among men, by which we must be saved.

But that it may not spread on further among the people, let us threaten them with threats to speak no longer in this name, to not one man.

And having called them, they commanded them entirely, not to utter nor to teach in the name of Jesus.

For we are not able not to speak what we saw and heard.

And the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and soul. And not even one man said that anything of the things that was possessed by him was his own, but all things were common to them.

For not even any needy was among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses, selling, they brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,

and placed them at the apostles' feet. And it was distributed to each, according as any man had need.

While it remained, did it not remain to thee? And after it was sold, it was in thine authority. Why is it that thou have placed this matter in thy heart? Thou have not lied to men, but to God.

And it came to pass after an interval of three hours, his wife also came in, not knowing that which happened.

But an agent of Lord opened the prison doors by night, and after leading them out, he said,

But the subordinates who came did not find them in the prison. And having returned, they reported,

Then after departing, the captain with the subordinates brought them, not with violence, for they feared the people, lest they would be stoned.

saying, Did we not command by an order for you not to teach in this name? And behold, ye have filled Jerusalem of your doctrine, and intend to bring upon us this man's blood.

And they were persuaded by him. And after summoning the apostles, having beat them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and released them.

And every day, in the temple and from house to house, they ceased not teaching and preaching good news, Jesus, the Christ.

And the twelve, having summoned the multitude of the disciples, they said, It is not right for us, having left the word of God behind, to serve tables.

Therefore, brothers, seek ye out seven men from you being well reported, full of Holy Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint over this need.

And they were not able to withstand the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke.

And they put forward FALSE witnesses who said, This man does not cease speaking blasphemous sayings against the holy place, and the law.

And he gave him no inheritance in it, not even a footstep. And he promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, although there was no child by him.

until another king arose who had not known Joseph.

This man, who cunningly victimized our race, mistreated our fathers to make their infants be placed outside in order not to keep alive.
