This was the true light, who lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

John testified of him and cried, saying, This is he of whom I said, He that cometh after me is preferred before me, for he was before me.

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, Who art thou?

This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man who is preferred before me; for he was before me.

And I knew him not, but he that sent me to baptize with water, he had said to me, On whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, this is he who baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

And I saw it, and testified, that this is the Son of God.

Jesus wrought this beginning of miracles in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed on him.

After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they tarried there not many days.

Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and I will raise it up in three days.

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

But he spake of the temple of his body. When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this;

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

He that hath the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly, because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

Jesus answered and said to her, Whosoever drinketh of this water, will thirst again.

The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

For thou hast had five husbands, and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband: in this thou saidst truly.

Our fathers worshiped in this mountain: but ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

Jesus saith to her, Woman, Believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with a woman. Yet none said, What seekest thou? Or, Why talkest thou with her?

Is not this the Christ?

because of his word, And said to the woman, We no longer believe, because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

This second miracle again Jesus wrought, being come out of Judea into Galilee.

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

Marvel not at this: for the time is coming, in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

(But this he said, trying him; for he himself knew what he intended to do.)

Then those men, having seen the miracle which Jesus did, said, Of a truth this is the prophet that was to come into the world.

Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

Then said they to him, Lord, ever give us this bread. And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life.

And this is the will of him that sent me, That of all which he hath given me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one who seeth the Son, and believeth on him, should have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then saith he, I came down from heaven?

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat of it, and not die.

If any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever, and the bread that I will give, is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

The Jews then debated among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

This is the bread which came down from heaven; not as your fathers ate manna, and died: he that eateth of this bread, shall live for ever.

Many of his disciples hearing it, said, This is an hard saying: who can hear it?

Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured about this, said to them, Doth this offend you?

From this time many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.

Go ye up to the feast; I go not up to this feast yet; because my time is not yet fully come.

And the Jews marvelled, saying, How doth this man know letters, having never learned?

Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

And lo he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him. Do the rulers know indeed, that this is the Christ?

Howbeit, we know this man, whence he is: but when Christ cometh, none knoweth whence he is.

And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?

What saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me? And where I am, ye cannot come?

This he spake of the Spirit, which they who believed on him were to receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Many of the people therefore hearing this discourse, said, Certainly this is the prophet.

Others said, This is the Christ.

The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.

But this populace, who know not the law, are accursed.

They say to him, Master, this woman was taken actually committing adultery.

What therefore sayest t`ou? This they spoke tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooping down, wrote with his finger on the ground.

And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

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

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents, but that the works of God might be made manifest thro' him.

While I am in the world, I am the light of the world. Having said this,

Then the neighbours and they who had seen him before, when he was blind, said, Is not this he who used to sit begging?

Some said, This is he: others, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner, do such miracles?

And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind?

How then doth he now see? His parents answered them, and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind.

He is of age: ask him; he will speak concerning himself. His parents said this, because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed, That if any man should own him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

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

We know that God spake to Moses; but we know not this fellow, whence he is.

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

And some of the Pharisees that were with him heard this, and said to him, Are we blind also?

This parable spake Jesus to them; but they understood not what things they were which he spake to them.

I have also other sheep which are not of this fold: I must bring them likewise, and they will hear my voice, and there shall be one flock, and one shepherd.

This commission have I received of my Father. There was again a division among the Jews, because of these sayings.

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

Jesus hearing it, said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.

Then after this he saith to his disciples, Let us go into Judea again.

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

Believest thou this? She saith to him, Yea, Lord, I believe thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.

Having said this, she went and privately called Mary her sister, saying, The master is come, and calleth for thee.

Could not this person, who opened the eyes of the blind, have even caused that this man should not have died?

Jesus saith, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the deceased, saith to him, Lord, by this time he stinketh; for he hath been buried four days.

Father, I thank thee, that thou hast heard me. And I knew that thou hearest me always: but I spake this, because of the people who stand by, that they may believe thou hast sent me.

For this man doth many miracles. If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him, and the Romans will come and subvert both our place and nation.

He spake not this of himself, but being high-priest that year, he prophesied, that Jesus should die for the nation:

faith, Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?

This he said, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the purse, and bare what was put therein.

Then Jesus said, Let her alone; against the day of my burial hath she kept this.

For this cause also the multitude went to meet him, because they heard, he had done this miracle.

He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, shall preserve it to life eternal.

Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour?

But for this cause I came, for this hour. Father, glorify thy name. Then a voice came from heaven, I have both glorified, and I will glorify it again.

Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

(He spake this, signifying what death he should die.) The people answered him,

Who is this Son of man? Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness overtake you, for he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he goeth.

Now before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing his hour was come to pass out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, loved them to the end.

Jesus having said this, was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily I say unto you, one of you will betray me.

Then said Jesus to him, What thou dost, do quickly. Now none at the table knew, why he said this to him.

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

Hereafter I shall not talk much with with you; for the prince of this world is coming; but he hath nothing in me:

This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you.

No one hath greater love than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

This I command you, that ye love one another.

But because I have told you this, sorrow hath filled your heart.
