This man came to Jesus by night, and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that Thou hast come, as a Teacher, from God; for no one can do the signs which Thou art doing, unless God be with Him."

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that every one who believes on Him should not perish, but have eternal life;

for God sent not His Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world may be saved through Him.

And this is the judgment, that the Light hath come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light; for their works were evil.

This man, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to Him, and was asking Him, that He would come down, and heal his son, for he was about to die.

The Jews, therefore, said to him who had been cured, "It is the sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed."

And he who was healed knew not Who it was; for Jesus withdrew, a multitude being in the place.

Jesus, therefore, answered and said to them, "Verily, verily, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He seeth the Father doing; for whatsoever things He doeth, these also, in like manner, the Son doeth.

For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth Him all things which He Himself doeth; and greater works than these will He show Him, that ye may marvel.

Work not for the food that perishes, but for the food that abides unto eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you; for Him God the Father sealed."

for the Bread of God is He Who cometh down out of Heaven, and giveth life to the world."

For this is the will of My Father, that every one who beholds the Son, and believes on Him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day."

I am the Living Bread That came down out of Heaven: if any one eat of This Bread, he shall live forever; yea, and the Bread That I will give him is My flesh, for the life of the world."

But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were that believed not, and who it was that would betray Him.

nor do ye consider that it is expedient for you, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not."
