And this is the record of John: When the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, "What art thou?"

And there were standing there, six waterpots of stone after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

And the Jews' Easter was even at hand; And Jesus went up to Jerusalem,

Then answered the Jews and said unto him, "What token showest thou unto us, seeing that thou dost these things?"

Then said the Jews, "Forty six years was this temple a building: and wilt thou raise it up in three days?"

There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler among the Jews.

After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the Jews' land, and there he haunted with them and baptised,

And there arose a question between John's disciples and the Jews about purifying.

Then the woman of Samaria said unto him, "How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a Samaritan?" For the Jews meddle not with the Samaritans.

Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship. For salvation cometh of the Jews.

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

The Jews therefore said unto him that was made whole, "It is the Sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed."

The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus which had made him whole.

And therefore the Jews did persecute Jesus, and sought the means to slay him, because he had done these things on the Sabbath day.

Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, not only because he had broken the Sabbath: but said also that God was his father and made himself equal with God.

And Easter, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, "I am that bread which is come down from heaven."

And the Jews strove among themselves, saying, "How can this fellow give us his flesh to eat?"

After that Jesus went about into Galilee, and would not go about in Jewry, for the Jews sought to kill him.

The Jews' tabernacle feast was at hand.

Then sought him the Jews at the feast, and said, "Where is he?"

Howbeit, no man spake openly of him, for fear of the Jews.

And the Jews marveled, saying, "How knoweth he the scriptures, seeing that he never learned?"

Then said the Jews between themselves, "Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? Will he go among the gentiles, which are scattered all abroad, and teach the gentiles?

Then said the Jews, "Will he kill himself? Because he saith, 'Whither I go, thither can ye not come?'"

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, "If ye continue in my words, then are ye my very disciples:

Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, "Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast the devil?"

Then said the Jews to him, "Now know we that thou hast the devil. Abraham is dead, and also the prophets, and yet thou sayest, 'If a man keep my saying he shall never taste of death.'

Then said the Jews unto him, "Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?"

But the Jews did not believe of the fellow, how that he was blind, and received his sight: until they had called the father and mother of him that had received his sight.

Such words spake his father, and mother, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had conspired already that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be excommunicated out of the Synagogue.

And there was a dissension among the Jews for these sayings,

Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, "How long dost thou make us doubt? If thou be Christ, tell us plainly."

Then the Jews again took up stones, to stone him withal.

The Jews answered him saying, "For thy good works' sake we stone thee not: but for thy blasphemy, and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God."

His disciples said unto him, "Master, the Jews lately sought means to stone thee, and wilt thou go thither again?"

And many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them over their brother.

The Jews then, which were with her in the house and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up hastily, and went out: followed her, saying, "She goeth unto the grave, to weep there."

When Jesus saw her weep, and the Jews also weep, which came with her; He groaned in the spirit, and was troubled in himself,

Then said the Jews, "Behold how he loved him."

Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews: but went his way thence unto a country nigh to a wilderness into a city called Ephraim, and there haunted with his disciples.

And the Jews' Easter was nigh at hand, and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the Easter to purify themselves.

Much people of the Jews had knowledge that he was there. And they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also whom he raised from death.

because that for his sake many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

Dear children, yet a little while am I with you. Ye shall seek me, and as I said unto the Jews, 'Whither I go, thither can ye not come.' Also to you say I now.

Then the company, and the Captain, and the ministers of the Jews, took Jesus and bound him,

Caiphas was he that gave counsel to the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

Jesus answered him, "I spake openly in the world. I ever taught in the synagogue and in the temple whither all the Jews resorted: and in secret have I said nothing:

Then said Pilate unto them, "Take ye him unto you, and judge him after your own law." Then the Jews said unto him, "It is not lawful for us to put any man to death."

Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, "Art thou the King of the Jews?"

Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world then would my ministers surely fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews, but now is my kingdom not from hence."

Pilate said unto him, "What thing is truth?" And when he had said that, he went out again unto the Jews, and said unto them, "I find in him no cause at all.

Ye have a custom among you, that I should deliver you one loose at Easter. Will ye that I loose unto you the King of the Jews?"

and said, "Hail King of the Jews." And they smote him on the face.

The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and by our law he ought to die: because he made himself the son of God."

And from thenceforth sought Pilate means to loose him: but the Jews cried, saying, "If thou let him go, thou art not Caesar's friend. For whosoever maketh himself a King, is against Caesar."

It was the Sabbath even which falleth in the Easter feast, and about the sixth hour. And he said unto the Jews, "Behold your King."

And Pilate wrote his title, and put it on the cross: The writing was, "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews."

This title read many of the Jews. For the place where Jesus was crucified, was nigh to the city. And it was written in Hebrew, Greek and Latin.

Then said the high priests of the Jews to Pilate, "Write not, 'King of the Jews,' but that 'He said, I am King of the Jews.'"

The Jews then, because it was the Sabbath even that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day - For that Sabbath day was a high day - besought Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken down.

After that, Joseph of Arimathaea, which was a disciple of Jesus - but secretly for fear of the Jews - besought Pilate that he might take down the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave him license.

Then took they the body of Jesus and wound it in linen clothes with the odors as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

There laid they Jesus because of the Jews' Sabbath even, for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

The same day at night, which was the morrow after the Sabbath day, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled together for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and said to them, "Peace be with you."
