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

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

John gave witness about him, crying, This is he of whom I said, He who is coming after me is put over me because he was in existence before me.

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?

He said to them, Come and see. They went with him then and saw where he was living; and they were with him all that day: it was then about the tenth hour of the day.

But his words were about that holy building which was his body.

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

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?

Then a question came up between John's disciples and a Jew about washing.

Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.

If I gave witness about myself, my witness would not be true.

There is another who gives witness about me and I am certain that the witness he gives about me is true.

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.

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.

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

Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.

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.

Now the Jews said bitter things about Jesus because of his words, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

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

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 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.

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

Now in the law Moses gave directions that such women were to be stoned; what do you say about it?

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

I have much to say about you and against you: but he who sent me is true and what he has said to me I say to the world.

They did not see that his words were about the Father.

So the Pharisees put more questions to him about how his eyes had been made open. And he said to them, He put earth on my eyes, and I had a wash and am able to see.

Again they said to the blind man, What have you to say about him for opening your eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.

He said in answer, I have no knowledge if he is a sinner or not, but one thing I am certain about; I was blind, and now I see.

Jesus said in answer, I have said it and you have no belief: the works which I do in my Father's name, these give witness about me.

Then Jesus said in answer, Are there not twelve hours in the day? A man may go about in the day without falling, because he sees the light of this world.

But if a man goes about in the night, he may have a fall because the light is not in him.

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

Now Bethany was near to Jerusalem, about two miles away;

And a number of Jews had come to Martha and Mary to give them comfort about their brother.

And he who was dead came out, with linen bands folded tightly about his hands and feet, and a cloth about his face. Jesus said to them, Make him free and let him go.

So Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near to the waste land, to a town named Ephraim, where he was for some time with the disciples.

(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.)

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.

(Isaiah said these words because he saw his glory. His words were about him.)

From this time forward, I give you knowledge of things before they come about, so that when they come about you may have belief that I am he.

Making a sign to him, Simon Peter said, Who is it he is talking about?

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.

This comes about so that the writing in their law may be made true, Their hate for me was without cause.

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;

When a woman is about to give birth she has sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she has given birth to the child, the pain is put out of her mind by the joy that a man has come into the world.

Then the high priest put questions to Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.

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

Jesus made answer, Do you say this of yourself, or did others say it about me?

(It was the day when they made ready for the Passover; and it was about the sixth hour.) And he said to the Jews, There is your King!

These things came about so that the Writings might be true, No bone of his body will be broken.

And Nicodemus came (he who had first come to Jesus by night) with a roll of myrrh and aloes mixed, about a hundred pounds.

Then they took the body of Jesus, folding linen about it with the spices, as is the way of the Jews when they put the dead to rest.

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

And the other disciples came in the little boat (they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits off) pulling the net full of fish.

Seeing him, Peter said to Jesus, What about this man?

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?

This is the disciple who gives witness about these things and who put them in writing: and we have knowledge that his witness is true.
