(Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the town of Andrew and Peter.)

After this he went down to Capernaum, and his mother and brothers and his disciples, and they stayed there {a few} days.

But the one who practices the truth comes to the light, in order that his deeds may be revealed, that they are done in God.

Now he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the piece of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

And Jacob's well was there, so Jesus, [because he] had become tired from the journey, simply sat down at the well. It was about the sixth hour.

(For his disciples had gone away into the town so that they could buy food.)

So the woman left her water jar and went away into the town and said to the people,

"Come, see a man who told me everything I have ever done! Perhaps this one is the Christ?"

They went out from the town and were coming to him.

Now from that town many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman who testified, "He told me everything that I have done."

So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, [because they] had seen all [the things] he had done in Jerusalem at the feast (for they themselves had also come to the feast).

This man, [when he] heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, went to him and asked that he come down and heal his son, for he was about to die.

The royal official said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies!"

Now [as] he was going down, his slaves met him, saying that his child was alive.

The one who was sick answered him, "Sir, I do not have anyone that, whenever the water is stirred up, could put me into the pool. But {while} I am coming, another goes down before me."

and they will come out--those who have done good [things] to a resurrection of life, but those who have practiced evil [things] to a resurrection of judgment.

So Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down there with his disciples.

Now when evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.

For the bread of God is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world."

because I have come down from heaven not that I should do my will, but the will of the one who sent me.

Now the Jews began to grumble about him because he said, "I am the bread that came down from heaven,"

and they were saying, "Is this one not Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he now say, 'I have come down from heaven'?"

This is the bread that comes down from heaven so that someone may eat from it and not die.

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats from this bread, he will live {forever}. And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."

This is the bread that came down from heaven, not as the fathers ate and died. The one who eats this bread will live {forever}."

But from the crowd many believed in him and were saying, "Whenever the Christ comes, he will not perform more signs than this man has done, [will he]?"

Now early in the morning he came again to the temple [courts]. And all the people were coming, and he sat down [and] began to teach them.

(Now they were saying this to test him, so that they would have [an occasion] to bring charges against him.) But Jesus, bending down, began to write with [his] finger on the ground, taking no notice.

And bending down again, he wrote on the ground.

"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

just as the Father knows me and I know the Father, and I lay down my life for the sheep.

Because of this the Father loves me, because I lay down my life so that I may take possession of it again.

No one takes it from me, but I lay it down {voluntarily}. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take possession of it again. This commandment I received from my Father."

But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them [the things] which Jesus had done.

So when he had washed their feet and taken his outer clothing and reclined at table again, he said to them, "Do you understand what I have done for you?

For I have given you an example, that just as I have done for you, you also do.

Peter said to him, "Lord, why am I not able to follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!"

Jesus replied, "Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly I say to you, the rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times!

If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you.

No one has greater love than this: that someone lay down his life for his friends.

If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have sin. But now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

Pilate replied, "I am not a Jew, [am I]? Your people and the chief priests handed you over to me! What have you done?"

So Pilate, [when he] heard these words, brought Jesus outside and sat down on the judgment seat, in the place called The Stone Pavement (but Gabbatha in Aramaic).

This is the disciple who is testifying about these [things], and who has written down these [things]. And we know that his testimony is true.

Now there are also many other [things] that Jesus did, which--if they were written down one after the other--I suppose not even the world itself could contain the books that would be written.
