He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.

He was in the world, and the world was made through him, but the world did not recognize him.

But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,

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

He confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Messiah."

John answered them, saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.

I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water: that he would be revealed to Israel."

And I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, this is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'

When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom,

But he spoke of the temple of his body.

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

The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

No one has ascended into heaven, but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

For God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God."

You yourselves bear me witness that I said, 'I am not the Messiah,' but, 'I have been sent before him.'

He 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 now complete.

He must increase, but I must decrease.

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever refuses to believe in the Son won't see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."

(although Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples),

but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life."

But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshippers.

So the woman left her water pot, and went away into the city, and said to the people,

But he said to them, "I have food to eat that you do not know about."

The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I'm coming, another steps down before me."

But he who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a crowd being in the place.

But he answered them, "My Father is still working, so I am working, too."

For this cause therefore the Jewish leaders sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

Jesus therefore answered them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the Son also does likewise.

For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son,

"Truly, truly, I tell you, he who hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous; because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the One who sent me.

But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.

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

But I know you, that you do not have God's love in yourselves.

But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"

"There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?"

and they entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them.

When therefore they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.

But he said to them, "It is I. Do not be afraid."

They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

On the next day, the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except one, and that Jesus had not entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had gone away alone.

Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves, and were filled.

Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him."

Jesus therefore said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.

But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you do not believe.

For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

This is the will of him who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.

But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, "Does this cause you to stumble?

But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.

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

The world cannot hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.

There was much murmuring among the crowds concerning him. Some said, "He is a good man." Others said, "Not so, but he leads the crowd astray."

But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

Jesus therefore answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

Do not judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment."

However we know where this man comes from, but when the Messiah comes, no one will know where he comes from."

Jesus therefore called out in the temple, teaching and saying, "You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you do not know.

They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

But many in the crowd believed in him. They said, "When the Messiah comes, he won't do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?"

But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Others said, "This is the Messiah." But some said, "What, does the Messiah come out of Galilee?

Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.

But this crowd that does not know the Law is accursed."

but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger.

But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her."

Again, therefore, Jesus 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."

Jesus answered them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you do not know where I came from, or where I am going.

Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.

Jesus therefore said to them, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I say these things.

But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.

Therefore Jesus said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I have not come of myself, but he sent me.

But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.

Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.

But I do not seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.

You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, 'I do not know him,' I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.

Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Jesus was hidden, and went out of the temple.

Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but, that the works of God might be revealed in him.

Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, "He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see."

but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself."

His parents said these things because they feared the Jewish leaders; for the Jewish leaders had already agreed that if any man would confess him as the Messiah, he would be put out of the synagogue.

They insulted him and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we do not know where he comes from."

We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him.

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

"Truly, truly, I tell you, one who does not enter by the door into the sheep fold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

But one who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

They will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him; for they do not know the voice of strangers."

Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they did not understand what he was telling them.

All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.

No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father."

But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.

The Jewish leaders answered him, "We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy: because you, being a man, make yourself God."

But if I do them, though you do not believe me, believe the works; that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father."

Many came to him. They said, "John indeed did no sign, but everything that John said about this man is true."
