All [things] came into being through him, and apart from him not one [thing] came into being that has come into being.

So the light continues to shine in the darkness, for the darkness has never overpowered it.

But to all who have received him -- those who believe in his name -- he has given the right to become God's children

(John bears witness of him, and he has cried, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that comes after me is preferred before me, for he was before me;)

No one has seen God at any time; the one and only, God, the one who is in the bosom of the Father--that one has made [him] known.

He is to become my successor, because He has been put before me, and I am not fit to untie His shoestrings."

This is the One about whom I said, 'After me there is coming a man who has already been put before me, because He existed before me.'

Philip findeth Nathaniel, and saith to him, We have found him whom Moses in the law has described, and the prophets, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.

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

and saith unto him, Every man setteth on first the good wine; and when men have drunk freely, then that which is worse: thou hast kept the good wine until now.

And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of your house has consumed me.

Then the Jews said, "This temple has been under construction forty-six years, and will you raise it up in three days?"

This man came to him at night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that [you are] a teacher who has come from God, for no one is able to perform these signs that you are performing unless God were with him."

Jesus answered and said to him, I tell you most truly, unless one has been born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.

That which has birth from the flesh is flesh, and that which has birth from the Spirit is spirit.

the Spirit where he willeth doth blow, and his voice thou dost hear, but thou hast not known whence he cometh, and whither he goeth; thus is every one who hath been born of the Spirit.'

And no one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven--the Son of Man.

So that whoever has faith may have in him eternal life.

For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life.

For God has not sent his Son into the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him.

The one who believes in him is not judged, but the one who does not believe has already been judged, because he has not believed in the name of the one and only Son of God.

And this is the judgment: that the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil.

And they came unto John, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.

John replied to them, "A person cannot receive anything, unless it has been given to him from [God in] heaven.

The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. But the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices {greatly} because of the bridegroom's voice. So this joy of mine is complete.

He has to become greater while I become less.

He who comes from above is above all. He who has his origin in the earth is of the earth, and speaks as of the earth. He who comes out of heaven is above all,

What he has seen and heard, this he testifies, and no one accepts his testimony.

The one who accepts his testimony has attested that God is true.

for he whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives not the Spirit by measure.

The Father loves the Son and has given all [things] into his hand.

The one who believes in the Son has eternal life, but the one who disobeys the Son will not see life--but the wrath of God remains on him.

Jesus answered her, "If you just knew what God has to give and who it is that said to you, 'Give me a drink,' you would have been the one to ask Him, and He would have given you living water."

The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou that living water?

The woman answered and said, I have not a husband. Jesus says to her, Thou hast well said, I have not a husband;

for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said truly.

But a time is coming--nay, has already come--when the true worshippers will worship the Father with true spiritual worship; for indeed the Father desires such worshippers.

The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah comes," (he who is called Christ). "When he has come, he will declare to us all things."

Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?

The disciples therefore said to one another, Has any one brought him anything to eat?

Jesus says to them, My food is that I should do the will of him that has sent me, and that I should finish his work.

He who does the cutting now has his reward; he is getting together fruit for eternal life, so that he who did the planting and he who gets in the grain may have joy together.

Now a number of the people of that town had faith in him because of the woman's witness: He has been talking to me of everything I ever did.

and said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of what thou hast spoken; for we ourselves have heard Him, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own homeland.

he having heard that Jesus has come out of Judea into Galilee, came away to Him, and continued to ask Him that He may come down and heal his son; for He was about to die.

"You may return home," replied Jesus; "your son has recovered." He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;

Then the father recollected that that was the time at which Jesus had said to him, "Your son has recovered," and he and his whole household became believers.

Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool called in Aramaic Bethzatha, which has five porticoes.

It has five colonnades. In these there used to lie a great crowd of sick people??lind, lame, paralyzed.

Jesus seeing him lying down, and knowing that he already has much time, says to him; Do you wish to be whole?

the sick man answered him, sir, I have nobody to put me into the pool when the water has been agitated: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.

After these things, Jesus findeth him, in the temple, and said unto him - See! thou hast become, well: - No more, be committing sin, lest, some worse thing, do thee befall.

The reply of Jesus was, "As my Father has continued working to this hour, so I work too."

For the Father has love for the Son and lets him see everything which he does: and he will let him see greater works than these so that you may be full of wonder.

For the Father does not judge anyone, but he has given all judgment to the Son,

that all may honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He who honours not the Son, honours not the Father who has sent him.

Truly, truly I say to you that the one who hears my word and who believes the one who sent me has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.

Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.

For just as the Father has life in himself, thus also he has granted to the Son to have life in himself.

And he has granted him authority to carry out judgment, because he is the Son of Man.

I cannot do anything of myself; as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous, because I do not seek my will, but the will of him that has sent me.

You have sent to John and he has testified to the truth.

"But I have a testimony greater than John's, for the works which the Father has given to me that I should complete them--the very works which I am doing--[these] testify about me, that the Father has sent me.

And the Father who sent me, that one has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time nor seen his form.

And you have not kept his word in your hearts, because you have not faith in him whom he has sent.

for had you believed Moses, you would have believed me: since he has spoke of me in his writings.

but if you don't believe what he has writ, how should you believe what I say?

"Here is a boy who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these for so many [people]?"

and having found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, 'Rabbi, when hast thou come hither?'

work not for the food which perisheth, but for that which endureth unto everlasting life, and which the son of man shall give unto you, for to him it is that the father, that is God, has given his credentials.

Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he has sent.

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it has been written, 'He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat.'"

Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, It is not Moses that has given you the bread out of heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.

And this was the answer of Jesus: I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never be in need of food, and he who has faith in me will never be in need of drink.

For I am come down from heaven, not that I should do my will, but the will of him that has sent me.

and the will of him who sent me is this, that I should not lose any one of those he has given me, but should raise them again at the last day: this,

This, I say, is my Father's pleasure, that everyone who sees the Son and has faith in him may have eternal life: and I will take him up on the last day.

The Jews therefore murmured about him, because he said, I am the bread which has come down out of heaven.

"Is not this Jesus, Joseph's son," they asked, "whose father and mother we know? How is it that he now says that he has come down from Heaven?"

No one can come to me except the Father who has sent me draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day.

It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every one that has heard from the Father himself, and has learned of him, comes to me;

(Not that anyone has seen the Father except the one who is from God--this one has seen the Father.)

Truly, truly I say to you, the one who believes has eternal life.

[But] this is the bread that has come down from heaven [i.e., Jesus is referring to Himself], so that a person who eats of it [i.e., believes in Jesus] will not die [spiritually].

I am the living bread which has come down out of heaven: if any one shall have eaten of this bread he shall live for ever; but the bread withal which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.

As the living Father has sent me and I live on account of the Father, he also who eats me shall live also on account of me.

This is the bread which has come down out of heaven. Not as the fathers ate and died: he that eats this bread shall live for ever.

And he said, "Because of this I said to you that no one can come to me unless it has been granted to him by the Father."

Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

Thou hast the words of eternal life. And we have believed and known, that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Because no man does things secretly if he has a desire that men may have knowledge of him. If you do these things, let yourself be seen by all men.

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

Go you up to the feast: I am not going up now to the feast because my time has not fully come.

The Jews meanwhile kept looking for him at feast, and saying, "Where is he?" "I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own Name these whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are one.

and there was much disputing about him among the crowd. Some would say, "He is a good man." Others. "No! he is misleading the people." "While I was with them I kept them by the power of thy name which thou hast given me. I guarded them, and none of them was lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

But when it was already the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the Temple and began to teach. "I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

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

Jesus therefore answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but that of him that has sent me.
