For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life.

Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.

To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God--that is, to those who had faith in his name:

From the first he was the Word, and the Word was in relation with God and was 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.

Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you, Without a new birth no man is able to see the kingdom of God.

The thief comes only to take the sheep and to put them to death: he comes for their destruction: I have come so that they may have life and have it in greater measure.

Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.

The true light, which gives light to every man, was then coming into the world.

On the third day two people were going to be married at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there:

I give you a new law: Have love one for another; even as I have had love for you, so are you to have love one for another.

Now there was among the Pharisees a man named Nicodemus, who was one of the rulers of the Jews.

And I will make prayer to the Father and he will give you another Helper to be with you for ever,

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

If you have love for me, you will keep my laws.

Jesus said in answer, Truly, I say to you, If a man's birth is not from water and from the Spirit, it is not possible for him to go into the kingdom of God.

Now when it was clear to the Lord that word had come to the ears of the Pharisees that Jesus was making more disciples than John and was giving them baptism

And you will have knowledge of what is true, and that will make you free.

The day after, John sees Jesus coming to him and says, See, here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

However, when he, the Spirit of true knowledge, has come, he will be your guide into all true knowledge: for his words will not come from himself, but whatever has come to his hearing, that he will say: and he will make clear to you the things to come.

All things came into existence through him, and without him nothing was.

But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will be your teacher in all things and will put you in mind of everything I have said to you.

You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.

He came for witness, to give witness about the light, so that all men might have faith through him.

I am the vine, you are the branches: he who is in me at all times as I am in him, gives much fruit, because without me you are able to do nothing.

Truly I say to you, The man whose ears are open to my word and who has faith in him who sent me, has eternal life; he will not be judged, but has come from death into life.

And he made a whip of small cords and put them all out of the Temple, with the sheep and the oxen, sending in all directions the small money of the changers and overturning their tables;

Make them holy by the true word: your word is the true word.

Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;

And this is eternal life: to have knowledge of you, the only true God, and of him whom you have sent, even Jesus Christ.

A woman of Samaria came to get water, and Jesus said to her, Give me some water.

Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, Before Abraham came into being, I am.

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 ill man said in answer, Sir, I have nobody to put me into the bath when the water is moving; and while I am on the way down some other person gets in before me.

Then Jesus said to the Jews who had faith in him, If you keep my word, then you are truly my disciples;

The man who has faith in him does not come up to be judged; but he who has no faith in him has been judged even now, because he has no faith in the name of the only Son of God.

Then again Jesus said to them, I am the light of the world; he who comes with me will not be walking in the dark but will have the light of life.

I and my Father are one.

I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener.

He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.

And when his words came to their ears, they went out one by one, starting with the oldest even to the last, because they were conscious of what was in their hearts: and Jesus was there by himself with the woman before him.

I have said all these things to you so that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble: but take heart! I have overcome the world.

And the light goes on shining in the dark; it is not overcome by the dark.

He himself was not the light: he was sent to give witness about the light.

He who has faith in the Son has eternal life; but he who has not faith in the Son will not see life; God's wrath is resting on him.

God did not send his Son into the world to be judge of the world; he sent him so that the world might have salvation through him.

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.

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.

Do not be surprised at this: for the time is coming when his voice will come to all who are in the place of the dead,

No man has seen God at any time; the only Son, who is on the breast of the Father, he has made clear what God is.

Greater love has no man than this, that a man gives up his life for his friends.

At evening on that day, the first day of the week, when, for fear of the Jews, the doors were shut where the disciples were, Jesus came among them and said to them, May peace be with you!

No man is able to come to me if the Father who sent me does not give him the desire to come: and I will take him up from the dead on the last day.

After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

As the snake was lifted up by Moses in the waste land, even so it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up:

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?

May peace be with you; my peace I give to you: I give it not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled; let it be without fear.

My sheep give ear to my voice, and I have knowledge of them, and they come after me:

But what I am saying is true: my going is for your good: for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

I am the good keeper of sheep: the good keeper gives his life for the sheep.

And Jesus with his disciples came as guests.

Whatever the Father gives to me will come to me; and I will not send away anyone who comes to me.

For his disciples had gone to the town to get food.

When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father even the Spirit of true knowledge who comes from the Father--he will give witness about me;

Now on the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the place and saw that the stone had been taken away from it.

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

So Jesus made answer and said, Truly I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything himself; he is able to do only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does the Son does it in the same way.

My prayer is not for them only, but for all who will have faith in me through their word;

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.

In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water.

After a time Jesus came across him in the Temple and said to him, See, you are well and strong; do no more sin for fear a worse thing comes to you.

Now before the feast of the Passover, it was clear to Jesus that the time had come for him to go away from this world to the Father. Having once had love for those in the world who were his, his love for them went on to the end.

What came into existence in him was life, and the life was the light of men.

And he, when he comes, will make the world conscious of sin, and of righteousness, and of being judged:

Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.

In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you?

And Jesus said to them, Send destruction on this Temple and I will put it up again in three days.

Then when they had taken food, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, is your love for me greater than the love of these others? He said to him, Yes, Lord; you are certain of my love for you. He said to him, Then give my lambs food.

And this was the answer of Jesus: I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never be in need of food, and he who has faith in me will never be in need of drink.

Then the Jews put this question to him: What sign of authority have you to give us, seeing that you do these things?

Now he who had been made well had no knowledge who it was, Jesus having gone away because of the number of people who were in that place.

And Jesus said to them again, May peace be with you! As the Father sent me, even so I now send you.

So some of the disciples said one to another, What is this he is saying, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me? and, I am going to the Father?

He said to them, But he who made me well, said to me, Take up your bed and go.

And it was necessary for him to go through Samaria.

You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.

Jesus said to her, Go, get your husband and come back here with him.

Truly I say to you, He who puts his faith in me will do the very works which I do, and he will do greater things than these, because I am going to my Father.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

And this is the test by which men are judged: the light has come into the world and men have more love for the dark than for the light, because their acts are evil.

He came to the things which were his and his people did not take him to their hearts.

By this it will be clear to all men that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.

This is the law I give you: Have love one for another, even as I have love for you.

And I give them eternal life; they will never come to destruction, and no one will ever take them out of my hand.

When they had not enough wine, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.

May they all be one! Even as you, Father, are in me and I am in you, so let them be in us, so that all men may come to have faith that you sent me.

The woman said to him, Sir, I see that you are a prophet.

This verse ommitted from translation

Jesus said to him, Philip, have I been with you all this time, and still you have no knowledge of me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. Why do you say, Let us see the Father?

That which has birth from the flesh is flesh, and that which has birth from the Spirit is spirit.

Jesus said in answer, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom was of this world, my disciples would have made a good fight to keep me out of the hands of the Jews: but my kingdom is not here.

And no one has ever gone up to heaven but he who came down from heaven, the Son of man.

The woman of Samaria said to him, Why do you, a Jew, make a request for water to me, a woman of Samaria? She said this because Jews have nothing to do with the people of Samaria.

He who has my laws and keeps them, he it is who has love for me: and he who has love for me will be loved by my Father, and I will have love for him and will let myself be seen clearly by him.

He was in the world, the world which came into being through him, but the world had no knowledge of him.

Jesus said to her, Do not put your hand on me, for I have not gone up to the Father: but go to my brothers and say to them, I go up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.

Jesus said these things; then, lifting his eyes to heaven, he said, Father, the time has now come; give glory to your Son, so that the Son may give glory to you:

After these things Jesus let himself be seen again by the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and it came about in this way.

In these doorways there were a great number of people with different diseases: some unable to see, some without the power of walking, some with wasted bodies.

For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.

Even the Spirit of true knowledge. That Spirit the world is not able to take to its heart because it sees him not and has no knowledge of him: but you have knowledge of him, because he is ever with you and will be in you.

The time of the Passover of the Jews was near and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had made to come back from the dead.

And to those who were trading in doves he said, Take these things away; do not make my Father's house a market.

If he said they were gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Writings may not be broken),

And whatever request you make in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may have glory in the Son.

After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee--that is, the sea of Tiberias.

Of myself I am unable to do anything: as the voice comes to me so I give a decision: and my decision is right because I have no desire to do what is pleasing to myself, but only what is pleasing to him who sent me.

No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me.

(Though, in fact, it was his disciples who gave baptism, not Jesus himself),

And this is the witness of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to him with the question, Who are you?

He who puts me on one side and does not take my words to heart, is not without a judge: the word which I have said will be his judge on the last day.

The day after, John was there again with two of his disciples;

Now Thomas, one of the twelve, named Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

So they said to him, Who are you then? We have to give some answer to those who sent us. What have you to say about yourself?

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

The day after, a great number of people who were there for the feast, when they had the news that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.

Here is my Father's glory, in that you give much fruit and so are my true disciples.

You would say, Four months from now is the time of the grain-cutting. Take a look, I say to you, at the fields; they are even now white for cutting.

This, I say, is my Father's pleasure, that everyone who sees the Son and has faith in him may have eternal life: and I will take him up on the last day.

Have you not faith that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you, I say not from myself: but the Father who is in me all the time does his works.

So Jesus said again, Truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

I myself had no knowledge of him, but I came giving baptism with water so that he might be seen openly by Israel.

His mother said to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do it.

Let your work not be for the food which comes to an end, but for the food which goes on for eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you, for on him has God the Father put his mark.

But one of the men made a wound in his side with a spear, and straight away there came out blood and water.

This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee and let his glory be seen openly; and his disciples put their faith in him.

These things took place at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan, where John was giving baptism.

Jesus said to him, Because you have seen me you have belief: a blessing will be on those who have belief though they have not seen me!

And Jesus, answering, said, Are you the teacher of Israel and have no knowledge of these things?

Father, it is my desire that these whom you have given to me may be by my side where I am, so that they may see my glory which you have given to me, because you had love for me before the world came into being.

After this, Jesus went from place to place in Galilee. He did not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were looking for a chance to put him to death.

And Jesus did such a number of other things that, if every one was recorded, it is my opinion that even the world itself is not great enough for the books there would be.

The day after this, Jesus had a desire to go into Galilee. He came across Philip and said to him, Come and be my disciple.

Your father Abraham was full of joy at the hope of seeing my day: he saw it and was glad.

If you have no belief when my words are about the things of earth, how will you have belief if my words are about the things of heaven?

I in them, and you in me, so that they may be made completely one, and so that it may become clear to all men that you have sent me and that they are loved by you as I am loved by you.

But he whose life is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his acts have been done by the help of God.

And he went out with his cross on him to the place which is named Dead Man's Head (in Hebrew, Golgotha):

I have given you glory on the earth, having done all the work which you gave me to do.

And they will come out; those who have done good, into the new life; and those who have done evil, to be judged.

Then Pilate took Jesus and had him whipped with cords.

After this I will not say much to you, because the ruler of this world comes: and he has no power over me;

If you were of the world, you would be loved by the world: but because you are not of the world, but I have taken you out of the world, you are hated by the world.

The woman said to him, Sir, you have no vessel and the fountain is deep; from where will you get the living water?

In answer, the woman said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have said rightly, I have no husband:

Then they said to him, How may we do the works of God?

Any to whom you give forgiveness, will be made free from their sins; and any from whom you keep back forgiveness, will still be in their sins.

If you had knowledge of me, you would have knowledge of my Father: you have knowledge of him now and have seen him.

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.

They will put you out of the Synagogues: yes, the time is coming when whoever puts you to death will have the belief that he is doing God's pleasure.

It is he who is coming after me; I am not good enough to undo his shoes.

Jesus said to them, If God was your Father you would have love for me, because it was from God I came and am here. I did not come of myself, but he sent me.

I am the bread of life.

After tasting the water which had now become wine, the master of the feast (having no idea where it came from, though it was clear to the servants who took the water out) sent for the newly-married man,

And the glory which you have given to me I have given to them, so that they may be one even as we are one;

My prayer is for them: my prayer is not for the world, but for those whom you have given to me, because they are yours

For even as the Father has life in himself, so he has given to the Son to have life in himself.

So Jesus said, When the Son of man has been lifted up by you, then it will be clear to you who I am, and that I do nothing of myself, but say as the Father gave me teaching.

I am not talking of you all: I have knowledge of my true disciples, but things are as they are, so that the Writings may come true, The foot of him who takes bread with me is lifted up against me.

Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Do not put, The King of the Jews, but, He said, I am the King of the Jews.

I have given your word to them; and they are hated by the world, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

When Jesus had said this he was troubled in spirit, and gave witness, saying, Truly I say to you, that one of you will be false to me.

So they took Jesus from the house of Caiaphas to the Praetorium. It was early. They themselves did not go into the Praetorium, so that they might not become unclean, but might take the Passover.

He had no need for any witness about man; for he himself had knowledge of what was in man.

Keep in mind the words I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord. If they were cruel to me, they will be cruel to you; if they kept my words, they will keep yours.

And when Jesus was nailed to the cross, the men of the army took his clothing, and made a division of it into four parts, to every man a part, and they took his coat: now the coat was without a join, made out of one bit of cloth.

Then Simon Peter gave this answer: Lord, to whom are we to go? you have the words of eternal life;

He takes away every branch in me which has no fruit, and every branch which has fruit he makes clean, so that it may have more fruit.

If then I, the Lord and the Master, have made your feet clean, it is right for you to make one another's feet clean.

So the other disciples said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, If I do not see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the print of the nails, and if I do not put my hand into his side, I will never have belief.

Now is my soul troubled; and what am I to say? Father, keep me from this hour. No: for this purpose have I come to this hour.

This was their answer: We are not stoning you for a good work but for evil words; because being a man you make yourself God.

Then, hearing this, a number of his disciples said, This is a hard saying; who is able to take in such teaching?

So that all men may give honour to the Son even as they give honour to the Father. He who gives no honour to the Son gives no honour to the Father who sent him.

After these things, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, made a request to Pilate to let him take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate said he might do so. So he went and took away his body.

Philip came across Nathanael and said to him, We have made a discovery! It is he of whom Moses, in the law, and the prophets were writing, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

This is he of whom I said, One is coming after me who is put over me because he was in existence before me.

Then Pilate went back into the Praetorium and sent for Jesus and said to him, Are you the King of the Jews?

For at this time John had not been put into prison.

Because of what he said, a number of the disciples went back and would no longer go with him.

And he took him to Jesus. Looking at him fixedly Jesus said, You are Simon, the son of John; your name will be Cephas (which is to say, Peter).

Jesus said to the servants, Make the pots full of water. And they made them full to the top.

And John gave this witness, saying, I saw the Spirit coming down from heaven like a dove and resting on him.

Even as you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.

If these things are clear to you, happy are you if you do them.

And after eight days, his disciples were again in the house and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were shut, Jesus came, and taking his place in the middle of them, he said, May peace be with you!

But Jesus did not have faith in them, because he had knowledge of them all.

Now the scribes and Pharisees came, with a woman who had been taken in the act of sinning against the married relation;

While I was with them I kept them safe in your name which you have given to me: I took care of them and not one of them has come to destruction, but only the son of destruction, so that the Writings might come true.

If any man is my servant, let him come after me; and where I am, there will my servant be. If any man becomes my servant, my Father will give him honour.

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

And there in the Temple he saw men trading in oxen and sheep and doves, and he saw the changers of money in their seats:

Jesus saw that they had a desire to put the question to him, so he said to them, Is this what you are questioning one with another, why I said, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me?

Early in the morning he came across his brother and said to him, We have made discovery! It is the Messiah! (which is to say, the Christ).

The writings of the prophets say, And they will all have teaching from God. Everyone whose ears have been open to the teaching of the Father comes to me.

Then he said to them again, I am going away and you will be looking for me, but death will overtake you in your sins. It is not possible for you to come where I am going.

The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be in need again of drink and will not have to come all this way for it.

This he said of the Spirit which would be given to those who had faith in him: the Spirit had not been given then, because the glory of Jesus was still to come.

He who is in love with life will have it taken from him; and he who has no care for his life in this world will keep it for ever and ever.

No one takes it away from me; I give it up of myself. I have power to give it up, and I have power to take it again. These orders I have from my Father.

I have come in my Father's name, and your hearts are not open to me. If another comes with no other authority but himself, you will give him your approval.

You are clean, even now, through the teaching which I have given you.

Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.

And still you have no desire to come to me so that you may have life.

But now I am going to him who sent me; and not one of you says to me, Where are you going?

Jesus said to him, Get up, take your bed and go.

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

Jesus gave them this answer: It is not my teaching, but his who sent me.

If you make any request to me in my name, I will do it.

If you had belief in Moses you would have belief in me; for his writings are about me.

He will give me glory, because he will take of what is mine, and make it clear to you.

Have faith that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me: at least, have faith in me because of what I do.

And the man became well straight away, and took up his bed and went. Now that day was the Sabbath.

Now when Jesus saw that the people were about to come and take him by force to make him a king, he went away again up the mountain by himself.

And Jesus saw a young ass and took his seat on it; as the Writings say,

Now when Jesus came, he made the discovery that Lazarus had been put into the earth four days before.

Even as you gave him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all those whom you have given to him.

He who takes my flesh for food and my blood for drink has eternal life: and I will take him up from the dead at the last day.

If a man does not keep himself in me, he becomes dead and is cut off like a dry branch; such branches are taken up and put in the fire and burned.

It came to the ears of Jesus that they had put him out, and meeting him he said, Have you faith in the Son of man?

He said to him a third time, Simon, son of John, am I dear to you? Now Peter was troubled in his heart because he put the question a third time, Am I dear to you? And he said to him, Lord, you have knowledge of all things; you see that you are dear to me. Jesus said to him, Then give my sheep food.

And there was much discussion about him among the mass of the people. Some said, He is a good man; but others said, No, he is giving people false ideas.

So they took them up: twelve baskets full of broken bits of the five cakes which were over after the people had had enough.

I have given you an example, so that you may do what I have done to you.

At that time it will be clear to you that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I in you.

And the Father himself who sent me has given witness about me. Not one of you has ever given ear to his voice; his form you have not seen.

And if any man gives ear to my words and does not keep them, I am not his judge: I did not come to be judge of the world but to give salvation to the world.

Which of you is able truly to say that I am a sinner? If I say what is true, why have you no belief in me?

And a number of them said, He has an evil spirit and is out of his mind; why do you give ear to him?

And they said to him, Where is he? His answer was: I have no knowledge.

Even if I am judging, my decision is right, because I am not by myself--with me is the Father who sent me.

You are judging from what you see; I am judging no man.

The man went away and said to the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

They took him before the Pharisees--this man who had been blind.

But Pilate made answer, What I have put in writing will not be changed.

So this saying went about among the brothers that this disciple would not undergo death: Jesus, however, did not say that he would not undergo death, but, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you?

Why are you questioning me? put questions to my hearers about what I have said to them: they have knowledge of what I said.

Then the Pharisees said one to another, You see, you are unable to do anything: the world has gone after him.

They will do all this to you because of my name--because they have no knowledge of him who sent me.

Then Jesus said to them clearly, Lazarus is dead.

But no man said anything about him openly for fear of the Jews.

Jesus, however, was talking of his death: but they had the idea that he was talking about taking rest in sleep.

Father of righteousness, I have knowledge of you, though the world has not; and to these it is clear that you sent me;

(These things were not clear to his disciples at first: but when Jesus had been lifted up into his glory, then it came to their minds that these things in the Writings were about him and that they had been done to him.)

There was a division again among the Jews because of these words.

I give witness about myself and the Father who sent me gives witness about me.

Now the day on which the earth was mixed by Jesus and the man's eyes were made open was the Sabbath.

Now the people who were with him when his voice came to Lazarus in the place of the dead, and gave him life again, had been talking about it.

And Jesus, turning round, saw them coming after him and said to them, What are you looking for? They said to him, Rabbi (which is to say, Master), where are you living?

And because of you I am glad I was not there, so that you may have faith; but let us go to him.

Have no fear, daughter of Zion: see your King is coming, seated on a young ass.
