He will come and kill those tenant farmers and will give the vineyard to other people." And when the people heard [Him say] this, they said, "May that never happen."

So they watched [for a chance to trap] Him. They sent spies who pretended to be upright and sincere, in order that they might catch Him in some statement [that they could distort and use against Him], so that they could turn Him over to the control and authority of [Pilate] the governor.

and they questioned him, saying, 'Teacher, we have known that thou dost say and teach rightly, and dost not accept a person, but in truth the way of God dost teach;

For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

and he said, 'I say to thee, Peter, a cock shall not crow to-day, before thrice thou mayest disown knowing me.'

For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

And Peter said, Man, I know not what you say. And immediately, while he yet spoke, the cock crowed.

Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?

And Nathanael said to him, Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see.

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says of him, Behold one truly an Israelite, in whom there is no guile.

Nathanael says to him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.

Nathanael answers and says to him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Nicodemus says to him, How can a man be born being old? can he enter a second time into the womb of his mother and be born?

Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

Do not be surprised that I say to you, It is necessary for you to have a second birth.

The wind goes where its pleasure takes it, and the sound of it comes to your ears, but you are unable to say where it comes from and where it goes: so it is with everyone whose birth is from the Spirit.

The woman says to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst nor come here to draw.

Jesus says to her, Go, call thy husband, and come here.

The woman answered and said, I have not a husband. Jesus says to her, Thou hast well said, I have not a husband;

"You are right when you say you have no husband, for you have had five husbands and the man you are now living with is not your husband. What you say is true."

The woman says to him, Sir, I see that thou art a prophet.

Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
