He came as a witness, in order that he might give testimony concerning the Light--so that all might believe through him.

He was not the Light, but he existed that he might give testimony concerning the Light.

The true light, who gives light to every person, was coming into the world.

But all who have received Him, to them--that is, to those who trust in His name--He has given the privilege of becoming children of God;

And so the Word became flesh and took a place among us for a time; and we saw his glory--such glory as is given to an only son by his father--saw it to be true and full of grace.

From his full measure we have all been given grace on grace.

For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

John's answer was: I give baptism with water; but there is one among you of whom you have no knowledge;

I had no knowledge who he was, but he who sent me to give baptism with water said to me, The one on whom you see the Spirit coming down and resting, it is he who gives baptism with the Holy Spirit.

And I have seen and given testimony that this person is the Son of God."

Then he said to them, Now take some, and give it to the master of the feast. So they took it to him.

Then the Jews retorted, “What sign (attesting miracle) can You show us as [proof of] your authority for doing these things?”

When however He had risen from among the dead, His disciples recollected that He had said this; and they believed the Scripture and the teaching which Jesus had given them.

This man came to Jesus by night, and said to him: "Rabbi, we know that you are a Teacher come from God; for no one could give such signs as you are giving, unless God were with him."

Nicodemus said to him, How is it possible for a man to be given birth when he is old? Is he able to go into his mother's body a second time and come to birth again?

In most solemn truth I tell you that we speak what we know, and give testimony of that of which we were eye-witnesses, and yet you all reject our testimony.

For God so loveth the world, that he hath given his only son, for the intent that none that believe in him should perish: But should have everlasting life.

Now John was then giving baptism at Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there; and people came and were given baptism.

John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

You yourselves give witness that I said, I am not the Christ. What I said was, I am sent before the Christ.

He gives witness of what he has seen and of what has come to his ears; and no man takes his witness as true.

for he whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives not the Spirit by measure.

The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.

Now he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the piece of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink" (for his disciples were gone away into the city to buy food.)

Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who did give us the well, and himself out of it did drink, and his sons, and his cattle?'

But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

Jesus said to her, Woman, take my word for this; the time is coming when you will not give worship to the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.

You give worship, but without knowledge of what you are worshipping: we give worship to what we have knowledge of: for salvation comes from the Jews.

But the time is coming, and is even now here, when the true worshippers will give worship to the Father in the true way of the spirit, for these are the worshippers desired by the Father.

God is Spirit: then let his worshippers give him worship in the true way of the spirit.

So the disciples said one to another, Did anyone give him food?

And they said to the woman, Now we have faith, but not because of your story: we ourselves have given ear to his words, and we are certain that he is truly the Saviour of the world.

Afterward Jesus found him in the Temple, and said to him, "See! You are well again. Give up sin, or something worse may happen to you."

Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life [and allows them to live on], even so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes.

For neither doth the Father judge any man, but he hath given all judgment unto the Son;

so that all will give honor (reverence, homage) to the Son just as they give honor to the Father. [In fact] the one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who has sent Him.

For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

“I can do nothing on my own initiative or authority. Just as I hear, I judge; and My judgment is just (fair, righteous, unbiased), because I do not seek My own will, but only the will of Him who sent Me.

"If I give testimony concerning myself, my testimony cannot be accepted.

There is Another who testifies about Me, and I know that the testimony He gives about Me is valid.

"You people have sent to John [the Immerser, for information. See 1:19] and he has given true testimony [about me].

But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.

And the Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have never heard His voice nor seen His form [His majesty and greatness—what He is like].

You make search in the holy Writings, in the belief that through them you get eternal life; and it is those Writings which give witness about me.

I have come in My Father’s name and with His power, and you do not receive Me [because your minds are closed]; but if another comes in his own name and with no authority or power except his own, you will receive him and give your approval to an imposter.

Philip made answer, Bread to the value of two hundred pence would not be enough even to give everyone a little.

And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.

(Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)

after the Lord had given thanks) When they saw, that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also went aboard the vessels, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

Jesus, answering them, said, Truly I say to you, You come after me, not because you saw signs, but because you were given the bread and had enough.

Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

So they said, What sign do you give us, so that we may see and have faith in you? What do you do?

Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, It is not Moses that has given you the bread out of heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.

For the bread of God is he who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.

Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

Jesus replied, "I am the bread who gives [spiritual] life; the person who comes to me will never get hungry [again], and the one who believes in me will never get thirsty [again].

All that the Father gives me shall come to me, and him that comes to me I will not at all cast out.

And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him [giving him the desire to come to Me]; and I will raise him up [from the dead] on the last day.

I am the Bread of Life [the Living Bread which gives and sustains life].

I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

When Jesus became conscious that his disciples were protesting about what he said, he said to them, Does this give you trouble?

It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh conveys no benefit [it is of no account]. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life [providing eternal life].

And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

Simon Peter answered Him, "To whom can we go, Lord? You have the message that gives eternal life,

It is impossible for the world to hate you; but me it does hate, because I give testimony concerning it that its conduct is evil.

The Jews meanwhile kept looking for him at feast, and saying, "Where is he?" "I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own Name these whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are one.

There was a lot of whispered discussion and murmuring among the crowds about Him. Some were saying, “He is a good man”; others said, “No, on the contrary, He misleads the people [giving them false ideas].”

But when it was already the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the Temple and began to teach. "I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?

Moses hath given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers); and on the sabbath ye circumcise a man.

If a child is given circumcision on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

Give over judging by appearances; be just."

Many of the people, however, believed in him. "When the Christ comes," they said, "will he give more signs of his mission than this man has given?"

On the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus got up and said in a loud voice, If any man is in need of drink let him come to me and I will give it to him.

(But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

Then the Pharisees said to them, Have you, like the others, been given false ideas?

Is a man judged by our law before it has given him a hearing and has knowledge of what he has done?

{Joh 7:538:12: This passage is omitted as ungenuine by Tischendorf and most critical editors of the Greek Testament. It is found in some manuscripts, but not in the most ancient. It is, however, very generally regarded as a genuine relic of the teaching of Christ, though not forming a part of the fourth Gospel. I give it in the text of Tregelles, omitting the words which he incloses in brackets. Tregelles, however, does not suppose it to be genuine.} [And they went each to his house;

Then Jesus got up, and seeing nobody but the woman, he said to her, Where are the men who said things against you? did no one give a decision against you?

And she said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said, And I do not give a decision against you: go, and never do wrong again.]

So the Pharisees said to him, The witness you give is about yourself: your witness is not true.

Jesus said in answer, Even if I give witness about myself, my witness is true, because I have knowledge of where I came from and where I am going; but you have no knowledge of where I come from or of where I am going.

I am one giving testimony about myself, and the Father who sent me gives testimony about me."

The father whose sons you are is the Devil; and you desire to do what gives him pleasure. *He* was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand firm in the truth--for there is no truth in him. Whenever he utters his lie, he utters it out of his own store; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

He who is a child of God gives ear to the words of God: your ears are not open to them because you are not from God.

And this was the answer of Jesus: I have not an evil spirit; but I give honour to my Father and you do not give honour to me.

Jesus said in answer, If I take glory for myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who gives me glory, of whom you say that he is your God.

"The man cannot be from God," said some of the Pharisees, "for he does not keep the Sabbath." "How is it possible," retorted others, "for a bad man to give signs like this?"

So there was a difference of opinion among them, and they again questioned the man; "What do you yourself say about him, for it is to you that he has given sight?"

But the Jews would not believe that he had been blind and had become able to see until they summoned the parents of the man who had been given his sight,

but as to how he now sees, we do not know; or who has opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him [and stop asking us]; he is of age, he will speak for himself and give his own account of it.”

Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
