For the law was given through Moses; grace and the true way of life are ours through Jesus Christ.

The day after, John sees Jesus coming to him and says, See, here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

And looking at Jesus while he was walking he said, See, there is the Lamb of God!

Hearing what he said, the two disciples went after Jesus.

And Jesus, turning round, saw them coming after him and said to them, What are you looking for? They said to him, Rabbi (which is to say, Master), where are you living?

Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two men who, hearing what John said, went after Jesus.

And he took him to Jesus. Looking at him fixedly Jesus said, You are Simon, the son of John; your name will be Cephas (which is to say, Peter).

The day after this, Jesus had a desire to go into Galilee. He came across Philip and said to him, Come and be my disciple.

Philip came across Nathanael and said to him, We have made a discovery! It is he of whom Moses, in the law, and the prophets were writing, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him and said of him, See, here is a true son of Israel in whom there is nothing false.

Nathanael said to him, Where did you get knowledge of me? In answer Jesus said, Before Philip was talking with you, while you were still under the fig-tree, I saw you.

In answer Jesus said to him, You have faith because I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree. You will see greater things than these.

On the third day two people were going to be married at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there:

And Jesus with his disciples came as guests.

When they had not enough wine, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.

Jesus said to her, Woman, this is not your business; my time is still to come.

Jesus said to the servants, Make the pots full of water. And they made them full to the top.

This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee and let his glory be seen openly; and his disciples put their faith in him.

The time of the Passover of the Jews was near and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

And Jesus said to them, Send destruction on this Temple and I will put it up again in three days.

So when he had come back again from the dead, the memory of these words came back to the disciples, and they had faith in the holy Writings and in the word which Jesus had said.

But Jesus did not have faith in them, because he had knowledge of them all.

He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.

Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you, Without a new birth no man is able to see the kingdom of God.

Jesus said in answer, Truly, I say to you, If a man's birth is not from water and from the Spirit, it is not possible for him to go into the kingdom of God.

And Jesus, answering, said, Are you the teacher of Israel and have no knowledge of these things?

After these things Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judaea, and there he was with them for some time, giving baptism.

Now when it was clear to the Lord that word had come to the ears of the Pharisees that Jesus was making more disciples than John and was giving them baptism

(Though, in fact, it was his disciples who gave baptism, not Jesus himself),

Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.

A woman of Samaria came to get water, and Jesus said to her, Give me some water.

In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water.

Jesus said to her, Everyone who takes this water will be in need of it again:

Jesus said to her, Go, get your husband and come back here with him.

In answer, the woman said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have said rightly, I have no husband:

Jesus said to her, Woman, take my word for this; the time is coming when you will not give worship to the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.

Jesus said to her, I, who am talking to you, am he.

While this was taking place, the disciples were saying to Jesus, Master, take some food.

Jesus said, My food is to do the pleasure of him who sent me and to make his work complete.

For Jesus himself said that a prophet has no honour in the country of his birth.

When it came to his ears that Jesus had come from Judaea into Galilee, he went to him and made a request that he would come down to his son, who was near to death, and make him well.

Then Jesus said to him, You will not have faith if you do not see signs and wonders.

And Jesus said, Go in peace; your son is living. The man had faith in the word which Jesus said to him and went away.

It was clear then to the father that this was the very time at which Jesus said to him, Your son is living. And he had faith in Jesus, he and all his family.

Now this is the second sign which Jesus did after he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.

After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

When Jesus saw him there on the floor it was clear to him that he had been now a long time in that condition, and so he said to the man, Is it your desire to get well?

Jesus said to him, Get up, take your bed and go.

Now he who had been made well had no knowledge who it was, Jesus having gone away because of the number of people who were in that place.

After a time Jesus came across him in the Temple and said to him, See, you are well and strong; do no more sin for fear a worse thing comes to you.

The man went away and said to the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

And for this reason the Jews were turned against Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.

For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.

So Jesus made answer and said, Truly I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything himself; he is able to do only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does the Son does it in the same way.

After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee--that is, the sea of Tiberias.

Then Jesus went up the mountain and was seated there with his disciples.

Lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw a great number of people coming to where he was, and he said to Philip, Where may we get bread for all these people?

One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to Jesus,

Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.

Then Jesus took the cakes and having given praise to God, he gave them to the people who were seated, and the fishes in the same way, as much as they had need of.

And when they had had enough, Jesus said to his disciples, Take up the broken bits which are over, so that nothing may be wasted.

Now when Jesus saw that the people were about to come and take him by force to make him a king, he went away again up the mountain by himself.

And they took a boat and went across the sea in the direction of Capernaum. By then it was dark and still Jesus had not come to them.

After they had gone three or four miles they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near to the boat; and they had great fear.

The day after, the people who were on the other side of the sea saw that only one small boat had been there, that Jesus had not gone in that boat with the disciples, but that the disciples had gone away by themselves.

So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, or his disciples, they got into those boats and went over to Capernaum looking for Jesus.

Jesus, answering them, said, Truly I say to you, You come after me, not because you saw signs, but because you were given the bread and had enough.

Jesus, answering, said to them, This is to do the work of God: to have faith in him whom God has sent.

Jesus then said to them, Truly I say to you, What Moses gave you was not the bread from heaven; it is my Father who gives you the true bread from 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.

Now the Jews said bitter things about Jesus because of his words, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have seen? How is it then that he now says, I have come down from heaven?

Jesus made answer and said, Do not say things against me, one to another.

Then Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, If you do not take the flesh of the Son of man for food, and if you do not take his blood for drink, you have no life in you.

Jesus said these things in the Synagogue while he was teaching at Capernaum.

When Jesus became conscious that his disciples were protesting about what he said, he said to them, Does this give you trouble?

But still some of you have no faith. For it was clear to Jesus from the first who they were who had no faith, and who it was who would be false to him.

So Jesus said to the twelve, Have you a desire to go away?

Then Jesus said, Did I not make a selection of you, the twelve, and one of you is a son of the Evil One?

He was talking of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. It was he who was to be false to Jesus--one of the twelve.

After this, Jesus went from place to place in Galilee. He did not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were looking for a chance to put him to death.

Jesus said to them, My time is still to come, but any time is good for you.

Now in the middle of the feast Jesus went up to the Temple and was teaching.

Jesus gave them this answer: It is not my teaching, but his who sent me.

This was the answer of Jesus: I have done one work and you are all surprised at it.

Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.

Then Jesus said, I will be with you a little longer and then I go to him who sent me.

On the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus got up and said in a loud voice, If any man is in need of drink let him come to me and I will give it to him.

This he said of the Spirit which would be given to those who had faith in him: the Spirit had not been given then, because the glory of Jesus was still to come.

Nicodemus--he who had come to Jesus before, being himself one of them--said to them,

But Jesus went to the Mountain of Olives.

They said this, testing him, so that they might have something against him. But Jesus, with his head bent down, made letters on the floor with his finger.

And when his words came to their ears, they went out one by one, starting with the oldest even to the last, because they were conscious of what was in their hearts: and Jesus was there by himself with the woman before him.

Then Jesus got up, and seeing nobody but the woman, he said to her, Where are the men who said things against you? did no one give a decision against you?

And she said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said, And I do not give a decision against you: go, and never do wrong again.]

Then again Jesus said to them, I am the light of the world; he who comes with me will not be walking in the dark but will have the light of life.

Jesus said in answer, Even if I give witness about myself, my witness is true, because I have knowledge of where I came from and where I am going; but you have no knowledge of where I come from or of where I am going.

Then they said to him, Where is your Father? Jesus said in answer, You have no knowledge of me or of my Father: if you had knowledge of me you would have knowledge of my Father.

Jesus said these words in the place where the offerings were stored, while he was teaching in the Temple: but no man took him because his time was still to come.

Then they said to him, Who are you? Jesus said, What I said to you from the first.
