In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

This man came as a witness, to testify of the Light, that all through him might believe.

He was the true Light, which, coming into the world, gives light to every man.

who were begotten, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man who is now before me, for he existed before me.

Jesus answered and said to him: Do you believe, be cause I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree? You shall see greater things than these. And he said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, From this time you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

Every man sets out the good wine first, and when they have drunk freely, then that which is inferior; but you have kept the good wino till now.

And he found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sit ting.

And when he had made a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, the sheep also, and the oxen, and he poured out the money of the money-changers, and overthrew their tables;

But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men,

and had no need that any one should testify of man, for he himself knew what was in man.

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

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 man can do these signs which thou doest, unless God be with him.

Jesus answered and said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, unless a man be born again, he can not see the kingdom of God.

Nicodemus said to him: How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb the second time, and be born?

Jesus answered: Verily, verily I say to you, unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he can not enter into the kingdom of God.

And no man has ascended into heaven, but he who came down from heaven, the Son of man, who is in heaven.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up;

And this is the condemnation, that light has come into the world, and men have loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

John answered and said: A man can receive nothing unless it be given to him from heaven.

Then the woman left her water-pot, and went into the city, and said to the men:

Come, see a man who has told me all things that I ever did. Is not this the Christ?

In the mean time, the disciples besought him, saying: Rabbi, eat.

Jesus said to him: Go, your child lives. And the man believed the word that Jesus spoke, and departed.

And a certain man was there, who had been sick thirty-eight years.

The sick man answered him: Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred; but while I am coming, another goes down before me.

And the man was immediately restored to health; and he took up his bed and walked. And that day was the sabbath.

The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus that had restored him to health.

and he has given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

But I receive not testimony from man; yet I say these things that you may be saved.

I receive not honor from men.

But Jesus said: Make die men recline. Now, there was much grass in the place. So the men reclined, in number about five thousand.

Then the men, after having seen the sign which Jesus did, said: This is, in truth, the prophet that was to come into the world.

Labor not for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to life eternal, which the Son of man will give you; for him has God the Father at tested.

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.

no man can come to me, unless the Father, who sent me, draw him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and died.

The Jews, therefore, contended among themselves, saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

Then Jesus said to them: Verily, verily I say to you, Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life in you.

This is the bread that came down from heaven; not as your fathers ate the manna, and died; he that eats this bread shall live forever.

Then, what if you should see the Son of man go up where he was before?

And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said: He is a good man. Others said: No; but he deceives the multitude.

And the Jews were astonished, and said: How has this man a knowledge of letters, having never been taught?

Then Jesus answered and said: My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

Moses gave you circumcision, (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers,) and you circumcise a man on the sabbath-day.

If a man receives circumcision on the sabbath-day, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I have restored the entire man to health on the sabbath-day?

Then said some of the men of Jerusalem: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

But we know this man, whence he is. But when the Christ comes, no one knows whence he is.

And many of the multitude believed on him, and said: When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than these which this man has done?

Then the Jews said among themselves: Whither is this man about to go, that we shall not find him? Is he about to go to those who are dispersed among the Greeks, and to teach the Greeks?

The attendants answered: Never did man speak like this man.

Does our law condemn a man unless it first hear from him, and know what he does?

You judge according to the flesh; I judge no man.

Then said Jesus to them: When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things.

But now you seek to kill me, a man that has spoken to you the truth, which I have heard from God; this Abraham did not.

Then said the Jews to him: Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death.

And as he passed by, he saw a man that had been blind from his birth.

And his disciples asked him, saying: Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

Jesus answered: Neither this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night comes, when no man can work.

Having said this, he spit on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on the eyes of the blind man,

He answered and said: A man called Jesus made clay and spread it on my eyes, and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloam and wash. After I had gone and washed, I received my sight.

Then some of the Pharisees said: This man is not from God, for he keeps not the sabbath. Others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such signs? And there was a division among them?

Again they said to the blind man: What say you of him, seeing that he opened your eyes? He said: He is a prophet.

Then, the second time, they called the man who had been blind, and said to him: Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.

They reviled him, and said: You are the disciple of that man; but we are the disciples of Moses.

We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is.

The man answered and said to them: Why, there is some thing wonderful in this, that you know not whence he is, and yet he has opened my eyes.

If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

I am the good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and am known by mine.

The Jews answered and said to him: We do not stone you for a good work, but for your impious words; and because you, being man, make yourself God.

And many came to him, and said: John did no sign; but all things that John said of this man were true.

Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus, of Bethany, the village of Mary and Martha her sister.

And some of them said: Could not he, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have caused that even this man should not have died?

Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called together the Sanhedrin, and said: What are we doing? For this man does many signs.

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

But Jesus answered them, saying: The hour has come that the Son of man must be glorified.

And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself.

The multitude answered him: We have heard out of the law, that the Christ remains forever: and how say you that the Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.

When he had gone out, Jesus said: Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.

He that loves me not, keeps not my words; and the word which you hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.

Greater love has no man than this, that one should lay down his life for his friends.

If I had not done among them the works that no other man has done, they would have had no sin; but now they have both seen, and hated both me and my Father.

He will glorify me; for he will take of mine, and show it to you.

All things that the Father has are mine; for this reason I said, that he will take of mine, and show it to you.

A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow, be cause her hour has come; but when the child is born, she no longer remembers the pain, for joy that a man is born into the world.

I have made known thy name to the men that thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them, to me, and they have kept thy word.

And all mine are thine, and thine are mine, and I am glorified in them.

It was Caiaphas who had given counsel to the Jews, that it was profitable that one man should die for the people.

Then the maid-servant who kept the door said to Peter: Are you not also one of the disciples of this man? He said: I am not.

Then Pilate came out to them, and said: What accusation do you bring against this man?

They answered and said to him: If this man were not an evil-doer, we would not have delivered him to you.

They all, then, cried out, saying: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorn branches, and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them: Be hold the man!

After this Pilate sought to release him. But the Jews cried out, saying: If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend. Every one that makes himself a king, speaks against Caesar
