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

Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, and said of him, "Look! here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceitfulness!"

Two days later there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there,

Now there were six stone jars standing there (in accordance with the Jewish regulations for purification)

Afterwards He went down to Capernaum--He, and His mother, and His brothers, and His disciples; and they made a short stay there.

And He found in the Temple the dealers in cattle and sheep and in pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.

Now there was one of the Pharisees whose name was Nicodemus--a ruler among the Jews.

There is no one who has gone up to Heaven, but there is One who has come down from Heaven, namely the Son of Man whose home is in Heaven.

After this Jesus and His disciples went into Judaea; and there He made a stay in company with them and baptized.

And John too was baptizing at Aenon, near Salim, because there were many pools of water there; and people came and received baptism.

Jacob's Well was there: and accordingly Jesus, tired out with His journey, sat down by the well to rest. It was about six o'clock in the evening.

Presently there came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus asked her to give Him some water;

When however the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him on all sides to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

So He came once more to Cana in Galilee, where He had made the water into wine. Now there was a certain officer of the King's court whose son was ill at Capernaum.

After this there was a Festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, called in Hebrew 'Bethesda.' It has five arcades.

In these there used to lie a great number of sick persons, and of people who were blind or lame or paralyzed.

And there was one man there who had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.

Jesus saw him lying there, and knowing that he had been a long time in that condition, He asked him, "Do you wish to have health and strength?"

But the man who had been cured did not know who it was; for Jesus had passed out unnoticed, there being a crowd in the place.

There is Another who gives testimony concerning me, and I know that the testimony is true which He offers concerning me.

"Do not suppose that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, namely Moses, on whom your hope rests.

Then Jesus went up the hill, and sat there with His disciples.

"There is a boy here with five barley loaves and a couple of fish: but what is that among so many?"

There they got on board a boat, and pushed off to cross the Lake to Capernaum. By this time it had become dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them.

Next morning the crowd who were still standing about on the other side of the Lake found that there had been but one small boat there, and they had seen that Jesus did not go on board with His disciples, but that His disciples went away without Him.

When however the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they themselves also took boats and came to Capernaum to look for Jesus.

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

Among the mass of the people there was much muttered debate about Him. Some said, "He is a good man." Others said, "Not so: he is imposing on the people."

The man whose teaching originates with himself aims at his own glory. He who aims at the glory of Him who sent him teaches the truth, and there is no deception in him.

Jesus therefore, while teaching in the Temple, cried aloud, and said, "Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from. And yet I have not come of my own accord; but there is One who has sent me, an Authority indeed, of whom you have no knowledge.

So there was a violent dissension among the people on His account.

At break of day however He returned to the Temple, and there the people came to Him in crowds. He seated Himself;

The father whose sons you are is the Devil; and you desire to do what gives him pleasure. *He* was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand firm in the truth--for there is no truth in him. Whenever he utters his lie, he utters it out of his own store; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

I, however, am not aiming at glory for myself: there is One who aims at glory for me--and who judges.

"Were I to glorify myself," answered Jesus, "I should have no real glory. There is One who glorifies me--namely my Father, who you say is your God.

We must do the works of Him who sent me while there is daylight. Night is coming on, when no one can work.

And there was a division among them. So again they asked the once blind man, "What is your account of him? --for he opened your eyes." "He is a Prophet," he replied.

Again there arose a division among the Jews because of these words.

Then He went away again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John had been baptizing at first; and there He stayed.

And many became believers in Him there.

"Rabbi," exclaimed the disciples, "the Jews have just been trying to stone you, and do you think of going back there again?"

"Are there not twelve hours in the day?" replied Jesus. "If any one walks in the daytime, he does not stumble--because he sees the light of this world.

"Lazarus is dead; and for your sakes I am glad I was not there, in order that you may believe. But let us go to him."

So the Jews who were with Mary in the house sympathizing with her, when they saw that she had risen hastily and had gone out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep aloud there.

"Take away the stone," said Jesus. Martha, the sister of the dead man, exclaimed, "Master, by this time there is a foul smell; for it is three days since he died."

Therefore Jesus no longer went about openly among the Jews, but He left that neighbourhood and went into the district near the Desert, to a town called Ephraim, and remained there with the disciples.

So they gave a dinner there in honour of Jesus, at which Martha waited at table, but Lazarus was one of the guests who were with Him.

Now it became widely known among the Jews that Jesus was there; but they came not only on His account, but also in order to see Lazarus whom He had brought back to life.

If a man wishes to be my servant, let him follow me; and where I am, there too shall my servant be. If a man wishes to be my servant, the Father will honour him.

Father, glorify Thy name." Thereupon there came a voice from the sky, "I have glorified it and will also glorify it again."

The crowd that stood by and heard it, said that there had been thunder. Others said, "An angel spoke to him."

There was at table one of His disciples--the one Jesus loved-- reclining with his head on Jesus's bosom.

In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make ready a place for you.

After offering this prayer Jesus went out with His disciples to a place on the further side of the Ravine of the Cedars, where there was a garden which He entered--Himself and His disciples.

Now Judas also, who at that very time was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often resorted there with His disciples.

So Judas, followed by the battalion and by a detachment of the Temple police sent by the High Priests and Pharisees, came there with torches and lamps and weapons.

So Jesus came out, wearing the wreath of thorns and the crimson cloak. And Pilate said to them, "See, there is the man."

It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, "There is your king!"

There was a jar of wine standing there. With this wine they filled a sponge, put it on the end of a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.

There was a garden at the place where Jesus had been crucified, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried.

Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation for the Jewish Passover, and the tomb was close at hand, they put Jesus there.

Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there on the ground, but he did not go in.

Simon Peter, however, also came, following him, and entered the tomb. There on the ground he saw the cloths;

While she was speaking, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but did not recognize Him.

There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not recorded in this book.

He called to them. "Children," He said, "have you any food there?" "No," they answered.

As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there, with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.

So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there were so many, the net had not broken.

But there are also many other things which Jesus did--so vast a number indeed that if they were all described in detail, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would have to be written.
