Later on there was a Jewish feast (festival), and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.

in which lay a great multitude of sick folk: of blind, halt, and withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

for an angel of the Lord went down into the pool at appointed seasons and stirred up the water; the first one to go in after the water was stirred was healed of his disease.]

And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.

He being sick answered him, Lord, I have no man, that, when the water was troubled, he might cast me into the pool: and in which I am coming, another steps down before me.

Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?

The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.

upon which occasion the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he did such things on the sabbath-day.

upon which Jesus said to them, verily, verily I say unto you, the son can do nothing of himself, except he sees the father do it: for whatever he doth, that the son does likewise.

For the Father loves the Son and shews him all things which he himself does; and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may wonder.

Indeed the Father passes judgment on no one; he has committed the judgment which determines life or death entirely to the Son,

That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.

Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.

But the witness which I receive is not from man: howbeit I say these things, that ye may be saved.

That one was the lamp [which was] burning and shining, and you wanted to rejoice for an hour in his light.

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 himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.

Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?

After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.

And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

for it was just before the passover, which is a feast of the Jews.

There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?

And when they were filled, he saith unto his disciples, Gather up the broken pieces which remain over, that nothing be lost.

Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.

When therefore the people saw the sign which he did, they said, This is of a truth the prophet that cometh into the world.

The sea was getting rough because of a strong wind which was blowing.

They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.

The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;

"In truth I tell you," answered Jesus, "it is not on account of the signs which you saw that you are looking for me, but because you had the bread to eat and were satisfied.

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.

Jesus answered them, the work which God requires is to believe on him whom he hath sent.

"What sign, then," they asked, "are you giving, which we may see, and so believe you? What is the work that you are doing?

For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

All that which the Father giveth me shall come unto me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

For I came down from heaven: not to do mine own will, but his will which hath sent me.

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.

And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat of it, and not die.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

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.

This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

It is the Spirit which quickens, the flesh profits nothing: the words which I have spoken unto you are spirit and are life.

But there are some of you who do not believe [in me]." For Jesus knew from the beginning which ones would not believe [in Him] and which one would turn Him over [i.e., to the Jewish authorities].

upon which Jesus said to the twelve, will not ye likewise go away?

His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest.

and there was much disputing about him among the crowd. Some would say, "He is a good man." Others. "No! he is misleading the people." "While I was with them I kept them by the power of thy name which thou hast given me. I guarded them, and none of them was lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

at which the Jews were surprized, saying, how came be acquainted with the scriptures, a man of no education?

"There was one thing I did," replied Jesus, "at which you are all still wondering.

And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?

On which Jesus said: "I shall be with you but a little longer, and then I am going to him who sent me.

Then said the Jews between themselves, "Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? Will he go among the gentiles, which are scattered all abroad, and teach the gentiles?

What word is this which he said, Ye shall seek me and shall not find me; and where I am ye cannot come?

On the last day, which is the great day, of the feast, Jesus stood and cried aloud, saying, If any one thirst, let him come to me, and drink.

(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.)

Is not it said in Scripture that it is of the race of David, and from Bethlehem, the village to which David belonged, that the Christ is to come?"

upon which the Pharisees answered, are ye also seduced?

But this crowd, which does not know the law, are accursed.

{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;

They said this to test Him, hoping that they would have grounds for accusing Him. But Jesus stooped down and began writing on the ground with His finger.

And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

Once more Jesus addressed the crowd. He said, “I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”

They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? Jesus said unto them, Even that which I have also spoken unto you from the beginning.

I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.

He who sent me is with me; he has not gone from me, because at all times I do the things which are pleasing to him.

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;

I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.

Ye do the deeds of your father." Then said they unto him, "We were not born of fornication. We have one father which is God."

You are of your father the devil, and it is your will to practice the desires [which are characteristic] of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks what is natural to him, for he is a liar and the father of lies and half-truths.

And because I say the truth, ye believe me not. Which of you convicteth me of sin?

Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

he that is of God, does therefore observe what God says: which you do not observe, because ye are not of God.

Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?

Jesus answered, "If I honour myself, mine honour is nothing worth. It is my father that honoureth me, which ye say is your God.

Thereupon they took up stones with which to stone Him, but He hid Himself and went away out of the Temple.

And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

With these words he spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva, which he smeared on the man's eyes,

And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

(Now the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes was the Sabbath.)

To which he replied, "I do not know whether he is a sinner; one thing I do know, that once I was blind and now I can see."

And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?

This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.

An hired servant which is not the shepherd, neither the sheep are his own, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and flyeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

No one takes it away from Me, but I lay it down voluntarily. I am authorized and have power to lay it down and to give it up, and I am authorized and have power to take it back. This command I have received from My Father.”

Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye do not believe. The works which I do in my Father's name, these bear witness concerning me:

My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

Again the Jews brought stones with which to stone Him.

Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

Then Jesus again crossed the Jordan to the place where John used to baptize at first, and stayed there some time, during which many people came to see him.

And many came to him, and said, John did no sign; but all things which John said of this man were true.
