He was not the Light, but sent that he should bear testimony concerning the Light.

But as many as did receive him, on them he bestowed authority to become children of God, even on those who believe on his name:

who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

For the law was given by Moses, but the grace and the reality came by Jesus Christ.

And he confessed, and denied it not; but acknowledged, I am not the Messiah.

John answered them, saying, I baptise with water: but in the midst of you hath stood a person, whom ye have not known;

And I did not know him: but he that sent me baptising with water, he said to me, Upon whomsoever thou shalt see the Spirit descending as a dove, and resting upon him, that is he who baptiseth with the Holy Ghost.

And when the president of the table had tasted the water become wine, and knew not whence it came: (but the waiters knew, who drew the water;) the president of the table called the bridegroom,

and saith to him, Every man at first produces the good wine; and after men have drunk plentifully, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept back the good wine until now.

But Jesus himself did not trust himself to them, because he knew them all,

The wind bloweth where it will, and thou hearest the sound of it, but knowest not from whence it cometh, nor whither it goeth: just so is every one who is born of the Spirit.

that every one who believeth on him may not perish, but have life eternal.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that every one who believeth in him should not perish, but have life eternal.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world by him might be saved.

He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is already under condemnation, because he hath not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God.

But he who practices the truth, cometh to the light, that his actions may be evident, as being done for God.

Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Messiah, but that I am sent before him.

He must grow great, but I diminutive.

He that believeth on the Son hath life eternal: and he that believeth not on the Son shall not see life: but the wrath of God abideth upon him.

(though Jesus himself did not baptise, but his disciples),

but whosoever shall drink of the water which I shall give him, he shall no more thirst to eternity; but the water which I will give him, shall be in him a fountain of water springing up to life eternal.

But the hour is coming, yea, is now come, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such worshippers of him.

But he said to them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.

The infirm man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is disturbed, to cast me into the pool: but when I am coming, another goeth down before me.

Therefore sought they the more to kill him, because he had not only broken the sabbath, but called God his own Father, setting himself on an equality with God.

For the Father never judgeth any man, but hath committed all judgment to the Son:

Verily, verily, I say unto you, That he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment; but is passed from death into life.

I am not able to perform any thing by myself: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; for I seek not my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.

But I receive not testimony from man: but I speak these things, that ye may believe.

But I have a testimony greater than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me that I should fulfil them, these very works which I am doing, they bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.

But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

But if ye believe not his writings, how will ye believe my words?

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

But he saith to them, It is I; be not afraid.

The next day the multitude who stayed on the other side of the sea, when they saw that there was no little vessel there, except the one into which his disciples went, and that Jesus went not with his disciples in the vessel, but that his disciples went away alone;

(but now little vessels had come from Tiberias near to the spot where they had eaten bread, after the Lord had given thanks:)

Jesus replied to them and said, Ye seek me, not because ye have seen the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.

Labour not for the meat which is perishable, but for that meat which endureth unto life eternal, which the Son of man will give you: for him hath the Father sealed, even God.

Then said Jesus unto them, Verily, verily, I tell you, It was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the real bread from heaven.

But I have told you, That though ye have seen me, yet ye have not believed.

For I came down from heaven, not with a view to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.

Now this is the will of the Father who sent me, That every thing which he hath given me I should not be deprived of it, but raise it up at the last day.

But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who the person was that should betray him.

Jesus therefore saith to them, My proper time is not yet come: but your time is always ready.

The world cannot hate you, but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its deeds are evil.

But as soon as his disciples were gone up, then went he also himself up to the feast: not in public, but as in concealment.

But now at the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

Jesus answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

He that speaketh from himself, seeks his own individual honour: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and iniquity in him there is none.

Because Moses ordered you circumcision; (not that it comes from Moses, but from our ancestors;) so ye circumcise a man on the sabbath-day.

Judge not by appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

But we know this man whence he is: but when the Messiah cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

Then spake Jesus aloud as he was teaching in the temple, and said, Ye both know me, and ye know from whence I am: and I came not of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.

Then they sought to apprehend him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

But many of the multitude believed on him, and said, When the Messiah cometh, will he do greater miracles than those which this man doth?

Others said, He is the Messiah. But others said, No: for cometh the Messiah out of Galilee?

Now some of them were desirous to apprehend him; but no one laid hands upon him.

But this rabble, which knoweth not the law, is accursed.

But early in the morning he came again to the temple, and all the people came to him; and sitting down he taught them.

But this they said, trying to entrap him, that they might have ground of accusation against him. But Jesus stooping down, with his finger wrote on the ground.

But when they heard him, and felt the conviction of their conscience, they slunk away one by one, beginning from the elders to the last: so Jesus was left alone, with the woman standing in the midst.

Then Jesus raising himself up, and seeing no person but the woman, said unto her, Woman, where are these thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

Then spake Jesus again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Jesus answered and said to them, Though I do bear witness of myself, my witness is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I am going.

But though I should judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.

I have many things to speak and to decide concerning you: but he that sent me is true; and the things which I have heard from him I speak to the world.

Then said Jesus to them, When ye shall have lifted up on high the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am, and of myself have I done nothing; but as the Father hath instructed me, so I speak.

But the slave abideth not in the family for ever: but the son abideth for ever.

But now ye seek to kill me, a man who hath told you the truth, which I have heard from God. Abraham did not so.

Then said Jesus unto them, If God was your Father, ye would have loved me: for I came out from God, and I am coming; neither indeed came I of myself, but he hath sent me.

But because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.

But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.

yet have ye not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, that I know him not, I should be like you, a liar: but I know him, and observe his word.

Then took they up stones to hurl at him: but Jesus was hid, and went out of the temple, passing through the midst of them, and so went away.

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man been in fault, nor his parents; but it is in order to make manifest the works of God in him.

Some said, That this is he: but others, That he is like him: he himself said, I am he.

but how he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he himself will tell you about it.

Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple, but we are the disciples of Moses.

We know that God spake to Moses: but we know nothing of this man, whence he is.

Now we know that God doth not hearken to sinners: but if any man be a devout worshipper, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

Jesus said to them, If ye were blind, ye should not have had sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin is permanent.

VERILY, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheep-fold, but getteth in some other way, that person is a thief and a robber.

And a stranger will they not follow, but will fly from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.

This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they knew nothing of the things which he spake to them.

All, as many as have gone before me, are thieves and robbers: but the sheep hearkened not to them.

The thief cometh not but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

But the hireling, and he that is not the shepherd, whose own property the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the wolf seizes upon them, and disperseth the sheep.

No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment I have received from my Father.

But ye believe not, for ye are not of my sheep, as I told you.

The Jews answered him, For a good work we do not stone thee; but for blasphemy; and that thou, being merely a man, makest thyself God.

But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.

And many came to him, and said, That John indeed performed no miracle: but all things whatsoever John spake of this man were true.

When Jesus heard it, he said, This sickness is not for death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.

But after that he saith to his disciples, Let us go again into Judea.

But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light with him.

These things said he: and after that he saith to them, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; but I go to waken him up.

Now Jesus had spoken of his death: but they apprehended that he spake of taking rest in sleep.

And I rejoice on your account that I was not there, in order that ye may believe; but let us go to him.
