And Jesus said to her, "What {does your concern have to do with me}, woman? My hour has not yet come."

And said unto him, Every man at the beginning does set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but you have kept the good wine until now.

which put his disciples in mind of that passage, "my zeal for thine house does prey upon me."

Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.

Jesus answered, "I tell you, if a man does not owe his birth to water and spirit, he cannot get into the Kingdom of God.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so does it behoove the Son of man to be lifted up:

Whoever believes and has decided to trust in Him [as personal Savior and Lord] is not judged [for this one, there is no judgment, no rejection, no condemnation]; but the one who does not believe [and has decided to reject Him as personal Savior and Lord] is judged already [that one has been convicted and sentenced], because he has not believed and trusted in the name of the [One and] only begotten Son of God [the One who is truly unique, the only One of His kind, the One who alone can save him].

For every one that does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light that his works may not be shewn as they are;

But whoever practices truth [and does what is right—morally, ethically, spiritually] comes to the Light, so that his works may be plainly shown to be what they are—accomplished in God [divinely prompted, done with God’s help, in dependence on Him].”

who thereupon went to John, and said, master, he that was with you beyond Jordan, to whom you bore testimony, he himself does now baptize likewise, and the people flock to him.

Whoever does accept it, certifies to the truth of God.

For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God [proclaiming the Father’s own message]; for God gives the [gift of the] Spirit without measure [generously and boundlessly]!

He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”

[Then] the woman said to Jesus, "I know that Messiah is coming ([He is] the One who is called Christ). And when He does come, He will tell us everything."

Already the reaper is receiving his wages and he is gathering fruit for eternal life; so that he who plants and he who reaps may rejoice together.

In this the saying is a true one, One does the planting, and another gets in the grain.

For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet does not receive honor in his own country. [Note: Jesus' reference here to his "own country" means Judea, while in Matt., Mark and Luke it refers to Nazareth].

After this, Jesus found him in the temple complex and said to him, “See, you are well. Do not sin anymore, so that something worse doesn’t happen to you.”

Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself save whatever he sees the Father doing: for whatever things he does, these things also the Son does in like manner.

For the Father loves the Son and shews him all things which he himself does; and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may wonder.

for neither does the Father judge any one, but has given all judgment to the Son;

so that all will give honor (reverence, homage) to the Son just as they give honor to the Father. [In fact] the one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who has sent Him.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, that he that hears my word, and believes him that has sent me, has life eternal, and does not come into judgment, but is passed out of death into life.

They said therefore unto him, What then doest thou for a sign, that we may see, and believe thee? what workest thou?

"In truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "Moses did not give you the Bread from Heaven, but my Father does give you the true Bread from Heaven;

And they said, Is not this Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? how then does he say, I am come down out of heaven?

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.

Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He [who was with the Father and] who is from God; He [alone] has seen the Father.

But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmur concerning this, said to them, Does this offend you?

"Does this seem incredible to you? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?

The Spirit is the One who gives life. The flesh doesn’t help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.

His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

The world cannot hate you [since you are part of it], but it does hate Me because I denounce it and testify that its deeds are evil.

Then the Jews were astonished, saying, "How does this man {possess knowledge}, [because he] has not been taught?"

Jesus answered their question by saying, "My teaching does not belong to me, but comes from Him who sent me.

Did not Moses give you the law? and no one of you does the law. Why do you seek to kill me?

Jesus answered them, I perform'd one single miracle on the sabbath, and does that alarm you?

No, we know where this man comes from; but when the Christ does come, no one will know where he comes from."

But many people in the crowd believed in Him, saying, "When the Messiah does come, will he perform more [miraculous] signs than this man has done?"

Then the Jews said among themselves, “Where does this Man intend to go that we will not find Him? Does He intend to go to the Dispersion [of Jews scattered and living] among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

What does this statement of His mean, ‘You will look for Me, and will not [be able to] find Me; and where I am, you cannot come’?”

Others said, This is the Christ. Others said, Does then the Christ come out of Galilee?

Does the Scripture not say that the Christ comes from the descendants of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”

The officers answered, Never did any man speak as does this Man.

But this crowd, which does not know the law, are accursed.

Does our law judge a man before it have first heard from himself, and know what he does?

They answered and said to him, "You are not also from Galilee, [are you]? Investigate and see that a prophet does not arise from Galilee!" [[

{Joh 7:538:12: This passage is omitted as ungenuine by Tischendorf and most critical editors of the Greek Testament. It is found in some manuscripts, but not in the most ancient. It is, however, very generally regarded as a genuine relic of the teaching of Christ, though not forming a part of the fourth Gospel. I give it in the text of Tregelles, omitting the words which he incloses in brackets. Tregelles, however, does not suppose it to be genuine.} [And they went each to his house;

So Jesus, straightening up and seeing no one except the woman, said to her, "Where are those accusers of yours? Does no one condemn you?"

And this was the answer Jesus gave them: Truly I say to you, Everyone who does evil is the servant of sin.

Now the slave does not remain in a household forever; the son [of the master] does remain forever.

I know that you are Abraham’s descendants; yet you plan to kill Me, because My word has no place [to grow] in you [and it makes no change in your heart].

You’re doing what your father does.”

“We weren’t born of sexual immorality,” they said. “We have one Father—God.”

You are of your father the devil, and it is your will to practice the desires [which are characteristic] of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks what is natural to him, for he is a liar and the father of lies and half-truths.

he that is of God, does therefore observe what God says: which you do not observe, because ye are not of God.

"If I do honor to myself," answered Jesus, "such honor counts for nothing. It is my Father who does me honor--and you say that he is your God;

Some said, "Yes, it is he." Others said, "No, but it surely does look like him." He himself said, "I am the man."

So they said to him, "Then how does it happen that you can see?"

Some of the Pharisees therefore said, This man is not of God, for he does not keep the sabbath. Others said, How can a sinful man perform such signs? And there was a division among them.

And they asked them saying, This is your son, of whom ye say that he was born blind: how then does he now see?

But we know that God does not hear sinners; but if any one be God-fearing and do his will, him he hears.

“I assure you and most solemnly say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up from some other place [on the stone wall], that one is a thief and a robber.

The thief does not come except to steal and to kill and to destroy. I have come so that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

The hired man, since he is not the shepherd and doesn’t own the sheep, leaves them and runs away when he sees a wolf coming. The wolf then snatches and scatters them.

This happens because he is a hired man and doesn’t care about the sheep.

Therefore does my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

"Does it not stand written in your Law," replied Jesus, "'I said, you are gods'?

If I am not doing the things my Father does, do not believe me.

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world;

But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because there is no light in him.”

The chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, What do we? for this man does many signs.

Then they sought Jesus, and spoke with one another as they stood in the temple, What does it seem to you, that He will not at all come to the feast?

Truly I say to you, If a seed of grain does not go into the earth and come to an end, it is still a seed and no more; but through its death it gives much fruit.

Jesus therefore said to them, Yet a little while is the light amongst you. Walk while ye have the light, that darkness may not overtake you. And he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes.

But Jesus loudly declared, “The one who believes and trusts in Me does not believe [only] in Me but [also believes] in Him who sent Me.

If anyone hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge and condemn the world [that is, to initiate the final judgment of the world], but to save the world.

He that rejects me and does not receive my words, has him who judges him: the word which I have spoken, that shall judge him in the last day.

“One who has bathed,” Jesus told him, “doesn’t need to wash anything except his feet, but he is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”

"What I am saying does not refer to all of you. I know the ones I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the scripture, 'The one who eats my bread has turned against me.'

From now on I am telling you [what will happen] before it occurs, so that when it does take place you may believe that I am He [who I say I am—the Christ, the Anointed, the Messiah].

And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words which I speak to you I do not speak from myself; but the Father who abides in me, he does the works.

the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see him nor know him; but ye know him, for he abides with you, and shall be in you.

Yet a little while and the world does not see Me any more. But you see Me. Because I live, you shall live also.

Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said to him, "Master, how does it happen that you are going to show yourself to us and not to the world?"

He that loves me not does not keep my words; and the word which ye hear is not mine, but that of the Father who has sent me.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; I do not give it to you as the world does. Do not let your hearts be distressed or lacking in courage.

I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does take place, you may believe and have faith [in Me].

Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that continues to bear fruit, He [repeatedly] prunes, so that it will bear more fruit [even richer and finer fruit].

Continue in me, and let me continue in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself--that is, if it does not continue in the vine--so neither can you if you do not continue in me.

If anyone does not remain in Me, he is thrown out like a [broken off] branch, and withers and dies; and they gather such branches and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.

I call you no longer bondmen, for the bondman does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things which I have heard of my Father I have made known to you.

if you were of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world does hate you.

They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time comes, that whosoever kills you will think that he does God service.

But I have told you these things that when the time does come, you may remember that I told you. I did not tell you these things at the start, because I was with you.

And when He does come, He will bring conviction to the world regarding sin [i.e., exposing it and producing guilt], regarding what is right [i.e., upholding godly standards], and regarding judgment [i.e., showing that sin condemns].

Some of His disciples said to one another, “What does He mean when He tells us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I am going to My Father’?”

So they were saying, “What does He mean when He says, ‘A little while’? We do not know what He is talking about.”
