they answered him, we are Abraham's offspring, and were never slaves to any man: why then do you say, "ye shall be made free?"

Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin.

I say the things which I have seen in my Father's house: and you do the things which come to you from your father's house.

They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham;

Ye do the works of your father." They say to Him, "We were not born of fornication; we have one Father??od."

Why don’t you understand what I say? Because you cannot listen to My word.

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.

But because I say the truth, ye believe me not.

Which of you convicteth me of sin? If I say 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.

The Jews answered and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?

Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my word, he shall never see death.

upon this said the Jews to him, now we plainly perceive you are mad. Abraham is dead, and the prophets too; and yet you say, if a man observes your doctrine, he shall never die.

Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: who do you say that you are?

Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God;

and ye have not known him: but I know him; and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be like unto you, a liar: but I know him, and keep his word.

Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was born, I am.

Then the neighbors and those who saw him previously (because he was a beggar) began to say, "Is this man not the one who used to sit and beg?"

So they began to say to him, "How were your eyes opened?"

They said therefore to him, Where is he? He says, I do not know.

Then some of the Pharisees began to say, "This man is not from God, because he does not observe the Sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner perform such miraculous signs?" Thus there was a division among them.

They say therefore unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, in that he opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.

and asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? How then doth he now see?

But how it is he is now able to see, or who made his eyes open, we are not able to say: put the question to him; he is old enough to give an answer for himself.

it was this made his parents say, "he is of age, ask him."

His answer was: I have said it before, but your ears were shut: why would you have me say it again? is it your desire to become his disciples?

He said in answer, And who is he, Lord? Say, so that I may have faith in him.

And Jesus said, I am come into this world to execute judgement; that they who see not, may see; and that they who say they see, may be made blind.

Some Pharisees, who were with Jesus, heard [Him say] these things, and replied, "Are we blind, too?"

Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye would have no sin: but now ye say, We see: your sin remaineth.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

The porter lets him in; and the sheep give ear to his voice; he says over the names of the sheep, and takes them out.

Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

So the Jews surrounded him and began to say to him, "{How long will you keep us in suspense}? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly!"

Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I have say ye are gods?'

If those to whom God's message was addressed were called gods??nd the Scripture cannot be set aside??36 do you mean to say to me whom the Father has consecrated and made his messenger to the world, 'You are blasphemous,' because I said, 'I am God's Son'?

how can you say that I blaspheme, I whom the father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, because I said I am the son of God?

And many came to him and began to say, "John performed no sign, but everything John said about this man was true!"

So the sisters sent to Him to say, "Master, he whom you hold dear is ill."

Then after this he says to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

The disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews were but now seeking to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

These things said he; and after this he says to them, Lazarus, our friend, is fallen asleep, but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.

Jesus says to her, Thy brother shall rise again.

Martha says to him, I know that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day.

She says to him, Yea, Lord; I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who should come into the world.

and said, Where have ye laid him? They say unto him, Lord, come and see.

They say to him, Lord, come and see. Jesus wept.

Jesus says, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, says to him, Lord, he stinks already, for he is four days there.

Jesus said to her, "Did I not say to you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?"

I know that thou hearest me always: but I say this, because of the people here present, that they may believe that thou hast sent me."

And the dead came forth, bound feet and hands with graveclothes, and his face was bound round with a handkerchief. Jesus says to them, Loose him and let him go.

So the high priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the council, and began to say, "What are we to do? For this man is certainly performing many wonder-works.

now this he did not say from his own motion: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation:

One of his disciples therefore, Judas son of Simon, Iscariote, who was about to deliver him up, says,

He didn’t say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief. He was in charge of the money-bag and would steal part of what was put in it.

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

Philip comes and says to Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip say to Jesus.

verily, verily I say unto you, when a corn of wheat is thrown into the ground, there it lies a single grain unless it dies: but if it die, it becomes very fruitful.

"Now is my soul troubled; what! shall I say, father, save me from this concern? but for this cause am I come, even for this very concern.

I will say, 'Father, glorify thy name.'" Then came a voice from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."

Upon which the people said to him, we have learnt from the law, that the Messiah is to live for ever: why do you say then, the son of man must be lift up? who is this son of man?

so that the passage of Esaias the prophet was fulfilled, where he says, "Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

So they could not believe; for Isaiah says again,

However, a number even of the rulers had belief in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not say so openly for fear that they might be shut out from the Synagogue:

For I spake not from myself; but the Father that sent me, he hath given me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

and I know that it is a commission of eternal life: whatever therefore I say, I deliver just as the father directed me.

He comes therefore to Simon Peter; and he says to him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Peter says to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Unless I wash thee, thou hast not part with me.

Simon Peter says to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

Jesus says to him, He that is washed all over needs not to wash save his feet, but is wholly clean; and ye are clean, but not all.

Ye call me, Teacher, and, Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, a servant is not greater than his lord; neither one that is sent greater than he that sent him.

I say not this of you all; for I know whom I have chosen: and that passage of the scripture must be fulfilled, "He that eateth bread with me, hath lift up his heel against me."

From now I say to you before it shall be, that, when it should be, ye might believe that I am.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in the spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

so Simon Peter beckoneth unto the same, and saith unto him - Say, Who is it? concerning whom he speaketh.

But he, leaning on the breast of Jesus, says to him, Lord, who is it?

And, after the morsel, then entered Satan into him. Jesus therefore says to him, What thou doest, do quickly.

for some of them were thinking, as Judas had the purse, that Jesus meant to say to him, "Buy what we need for the feast," or to give something to the poor.

When therefore he was gone out Jesus says, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

my dear children, I am with you but for a little while. you shall seek me: but as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you, "where I am going you cannot come."

Simon Peter says to him, Lord, where goest thou? Jesus answered him, Where I go thou canst not follow me now, but thou shalt follow me after.

Peter says to him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.

Jesus answered him, you lay down your life for my sake! Verily, verily I say unto thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

Thomas says to him, Lord, we know not where thou goest, and how can we know the way?

Jesus says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father unless by me.

Philip says to him, Lord, shew us the Father and it suffices us.

Jesus said to him, have I been with you so long, and don't you know me yet? Philip, he that hath seen me, hath seen the father; why then do you say, shew us the father?

Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his works.

You should believe me [when I say] that I am in [fellowship with] the Father, and the Father is in [fellowship with] me. Or else believe me for the sake of the deeds themselves that I perform.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto the Father.

I will not abandon you [Note: The Greek says, "leave you orphans"]; I will come [back] to you.

Judas, not the Iscariote, says to him, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself to us and not to the world?

He who does not love me does not obey my word; and what you hear me say is not my word but the word of the Father who sent me.

ye have heard me say, "I am going away, and shall come again unto you." if ye loved me, ye would rejoice at my going to the father: for the father is greater than I.

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

But these things I have spoken to you, that when the hour may come, ye may remember them, that I said them to you, and these things to you from the beginning I did not say, because I was with you;

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

But I say the truth to you, It is profitable for you that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I go I will send him to you.
