For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace.

John testified saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and He remained upon Him.

I myself have seen, and have testified that this is the Son of God.”

He *found first his own brother Simon and *said to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which translated means Christ).

Philip *found Nathanael and *said to him, “We have found Him of whom Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”

When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.”

And Jesus *said to her, “Woman, what does that have to do with us? My hour has not yet come.”

and *said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the people have drunk freely, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.”

this man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.”

Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know and testify of what we have seen, and you do not accept our testimony.

so that whoever believes will in Him have eternal life.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.

And they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified, behold, He is baptizing and all are coming to Him.”

You yourselves are my witnesses that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent ahead of Him.’

Therefore the Samaritan woman *said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask me for a drink since I am a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”

She *said to Him, “Sir, You have nothing to draw with and the well is deep; where then do You get that living water?

The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.” Jesus *said to her, “You have correctly said, ‘I have no husband’;

for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; this you have said truly.”

“Come, see a man who told me all the things that I have done; this is not the Christ, is it?”

But He said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”

I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labor.”

From that city many of the Samaritans believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, “He told me all the things that I have done.”

and they were saying to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this One is indeed the Savior of the world.”

The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am coming, another steps down before me.”

Afterward Jesus *found him in the temple and said to him, “Behold, you have become well; do not sin anymore, so that nothing worse happens to you.”

For just as the Father has life in Himself, even so He gave to the Son also to have life in Himself;

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

But the testimony which I have is greater than the testimony of John; for the works which the Father has given Me to accomplish—the very works that I do—testify about Me, that the Father has sent Me.

And the Father who sent Me, He has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His form.

You do not have His word abiding in you, for you do not believe Him whom He sent.

You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me;

and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.

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

I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have set your hope.

Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

But I said to you that you have seen Me, and yet do not believe.

For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.”

They were saying, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does He now say, ‘I have come down out of heaven’?”

So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves.

It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.

And He was saying, “For this reason I have said to you, that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted him from the Father.”

Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life.

We have believed and have come to know that You are the Holy One of God.”

The crowd answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill You?”

Then Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know Me and know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

The Pharisees then answered them, “You have not also been led astray, have you?

They were saying this, testing Him, so that they might have grounds for accusing Him. But Jesus stooped down and with His finger wrote on the ground.

Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”

So they were saying to Him, “Who are You?” Jesus said to them, “What have I been saying to you from the beginning?

I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world.”

They answered Him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never yet been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, ‘You will become free’?”

I speak the things which I have seen with My Father; therefore you also do the things which you heard from your father.”

You are doing the deeds of your father.” They said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father: God.”

Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and have come from God, for I have not even come on My own initiative, but He sent Me.

The Jews answered and said to Him, “Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?”

Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

The Jews said to Him, “Now we know that You have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets also; and You say, ‘If anyone keeps My word, he will never taste of death.’

and you have not come to know Him, but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know Him and keep His word.

So the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?”

Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him, and He is the one who is talking with you.”

Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but since you say, ‘We see,’ your sin remains.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will hear My voice; and they will become one flock with one shepherd.

No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own initiative. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This commandment I received from My Father.”

Martha then said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

She *said to Him, “Yes, Lord; I have believed that You are the Christ, the Son of God, even He who comes into the world.”

Therefore, when Mary came where Jesus was, she saw Him, and fell at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”

and said, “Where have you laid him?” They *said to Him, “Lord, come and see.”

But some of them said, “Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have kept this man also from dying?”

So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes, and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have Me.”

Father, glorify Your name.” Then a voice came out of heaven: “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.”

The crowd then answered Him, “We have heard out of the Law that the Christ is to remain forever; and how can You say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”

So Jesus said to them, “For a little while longer the Light is among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you; he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes.

While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of Light.”These things Jesus spoke, and He went away and hid Himself from them.

I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness.

Peter *said to Him, “Never shall You wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.”

So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?

I do not speak of all of you. I know the ones I have chosen; but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’

For some were supposing, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we have need of for the feast”; or else, that he should give something to the poor.

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.

If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; from now on you know Him, and have seen Him.”

Jesus *said to him, “Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

“These things I have spoken to you while abiding with you.

You heard that I said to you, ‘I go away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced because I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.

Now I have told you before it happens, so that when it happens, you may believe.

You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.

Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.

If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.

These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.

“This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you.

No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you.

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated Me and My Father as well.

But they have done this to fulfill the word that is written in their Law, ‘They hated Me without a cause.’
