He was not the light, but to testify of the light.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become sons of God, to them that believe on his name,

who are born not of superior blood, nor of a will of the flesh, nor of a will of man, but of God.

John answered them saying, I baptize with water; but among you stands one whom you know not.

And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, for this reason have I come baptizing with water.

And I knew him not, but he that sent me to baptize with water, he said to me, On whom you see the Spirit descend and remain on him, this is he that baptizes with the Holy Spirit.

and said to him, Every man first presents the good wine, and when they have drunk freely, the poorer; but you have kept the good wine till now.

But he spoke of the temple of his body.

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

The Spirit breathes where it wills, and you hear its voice, but you know not whence it comes, nor whither it goes; so is every one that has been born of the Spirit.

And no one has ascended into heaven but he that came down from heaven, the Son of man who is in heaven.

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

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

He that believes in him is not judged; but he that believes not has been judged already; because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

but he that does good comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, for they are wrought in God.

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

He that has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice; this my joy, therefore, is fully attained.

He must increase, but I must decrease.

He that believes on the Son has eternal life; but he that disbelieves the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God continues on him.

though Jesus himself indeed baptized not, but his disciples,

but whoever drinks of the water which I will give him shall never thirst; but the water which I will give him shall be in him a fountain of water springing up to eternal life.

But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father seeks such to worship him.

And upon this his disciples came, and wondered that he talked with the woman; but no one said to him, What do you seek? or why do you talk with her?

But he said to them, I have food to eat which you know not of.

The sick man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is disturbed, to put me into the pool; but while I am coming another goes down before me.

But Jesus answered them, My Father works even till now, and I work.

Then, for this reason, the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath but also said, that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

Then Jesus answered and said to them, I tell you most truly, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do; for whatever he does, these things also does the Son in like manner.

For the Father judges no man, but has given all judgment to the Son,

I tell you most truly, he that hears my word and believes him that sent me has eternal life, and comes not into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

I can do nothing of myself; as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, for I seek not my will, but the will of him that sent me.

but I receive not testimony from a man; but I say these things that you may be saved.

But I have greater testimony than John's; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these works which I do, testify of me that the Father has sent me;

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

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

But this he said to try him; for he knew what he was about to do.

There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fishes; but what are these for so many?

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

ON the next day, the multitude standing on the other side of the lake seeing that there was no other boat there except one, and that Jesus entered not into the ship with his disciples but his disciples had gone away alone,??23 but other boats came from Tiberias near the place where they had eaten bread after the Lord gave thanks,??24 when, therefore, the multitude saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they went into the ships and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

Jesus answered them and said, I tell you most truly, you seek me not because you saw miracles, but because you eat of the bread and were filled.

Work not for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give you; for him has God the Father sealed.

Then Jesus said to them, I tell you most truly, Moses gave you not bread from heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven;

But I said to you, that you have seen me and believe not.

for I came down from heaven not to do my will, but the will of him that sent me.

And this is the will of him that sent me; that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but should raise it up at the last day.

But there are some of you who believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who he was that would betray him.

But he spoke of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he was about to betray him, being one of the twelve.

Then Jesus said to them, My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

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

But when his brothers had gone up, then he also went up to the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

And there was much complaining concerning him among the multitude; some said, He is a good man; others said, No; but he deceives the people.

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

He that speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but he that seeks the glory of him that sent him, this [man] is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

Moses gave you circumcision, not that it is of Moses but of the fathers, and you circumcise a man on the sabbath.

Judge not according to the appearance, but judge a righteous judgment.

But we know this man whence he is; but when the Christ comes, no one knows whence he is.

Then Jesus cried, teaching in the temple and saying, You both know me and know whence I am; and I have not come of myself; but he that sent me is true, whom you know not;

Then they sought to take him by force; but no man laid a hand on him, for his hour had not yet come.

But he said this of the Spirit which those believing in him were about to receive; for the Spirit was not yet [given], because Jesus was not yet glorified.

and some of them wished to take him by force, but no one laid hands on him.

But this multitude which know not the law are accursed.

[An early interpolation, but probably true]. And every man went to his own house;

They said this to try him, that they might have something of which to accuse him. But Jesus, stooping down, wrote with his finger on the ground.

But they hearing, and being convicted by their consciences, went out, one by one, beginning with the oldest, even to the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

And Jesus rising up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those your accusers? Has no man condemned you?

THEN Jesus spoke to them again, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life.

Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I testify of myself, my testimony is true, for I know whence I came and whither I go; but you know not whence I come or whither I go.

and even if I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.

I have many things to say and judge of you; but he that sent me is true; and what I have heard from him, these things I speak in the world.

Then Jesus said to them, When you shall lift up the Son of man, then shall you know that I am [the Christ]; and I do nothing of myself; but I speak these things as the Father has taught me;

But the servant continues not in the house for ever; the Son continues for ever.

I know that you are children of Abraham; but you seek to kill me because my word has no place in you.

but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I have heard from God; Abraham did not do this.

Jesus said to them, If God was your father you would have loved me; for I came forth and come from God; for I came not of myself, but he sent me.

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

Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.

But I seek not my glory; there is one that seeks and judges.

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

Then they took up stones to cast at him; but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.

Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents, but that the works of God might appear in him.

Some said, This is he; others said, No, but he is like him; he said, I am he.

but how he now sees we know not, or who has opened his eyes we know not; ask him, he is of age, he will speak for himself.

They reproached him, and said, You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

We know that God spoke to Moses, but we know not whence this man is.

We know that God hears not sinners; but if one is a worshipper of God, and does his will, him he hears.

Jesus said to them, If you were blind you would not have had sin; but now you say, We see, your sin remains.

I tell you most truly, he that enters not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs in at some other place, he is a thief and robber;

but he that enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

But a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him, for they know not the voice of strangers.

This parable spoke Jesus to them, but they knew not what the words which he spoke to them meant.

All who came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep have not heard them.

But the hired servant, and one who is not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf seizes and scatters them;

No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have a right to lay it down, and I have a right to take it again; this commandment have I received from my Father.

but you believe not, because you are not of my sheep. As I said to you,

The Jews answered him, We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy, and because you, being a man, make yourself God.

but if I do, though you believe not me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I in the Father.

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

But Jesus hearing it said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified by it.

but if he walks in the night he stumbles, because the light is not in it.

He said these things, and after this he said to them, Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I go that I may awake him.
