John testifies concerning Him, and has cried, saying, "This was He of Whom I said, 'He That cometh after me hath become before me, because He was before me;'"

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent forth priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, "Who are you?"

This is He of Whom I said, 'After me cometh a Man Who hath become before me, because He was before me.'

And I knew Him not; but, that He might be manifested to Israel, for this cause I came immersing in water."

And I have seen, and have testified, that This is the Son of God."

This beginning of His signs Jesus wrought in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed on Him.

After this He went down to Capernaum, Himself, and His mother, and brothers, and His disciples; and there they abode not many days.

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

The Jews, therefore, said, "In forty-six years this temple was built, and wilt Thou raise it up in three days?"

When, therefore, He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture, and the word that Jesus spake.

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 one can do the signs which Thou art doing, unless God be with Him."

And this is the judgment, that the Light hath come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light; for their works were evil.

He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bride-groom who stands and hears him greatly rejoices because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy, therefore, has been made full.

What He hath seen, and what He heard, of this He bears testimony; and no man receives His testimony.

Jesus answered and said to her, "Every one who drinks of this water will thirst again;

The woman saith to Him, "Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, neither come all the way hither to draw."

for you have had five husbands, and he whom you now have is not your husband: this you have said truly."

Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."

Jesus saith to her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when ye will, neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

And upon this came His disciples: and they were wondering that He was talking with a woman; yet no one said, "What seekest Thou?" or, "Why talkest Thou with her?"

"Come, see a Man Who told me all things that I ever did: can This be the Christ?"

For in this is the saying true, 'One sows, and another reaps.'

and they said to the woman, "Now we no longer believe because of your saying; for we ourselves have heard, and know that This is, in truth, the Savior of the world."

This man, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to Him, and was asking Him, that He would come down, and heal his son, for he was about to die.

This again is a second sign that Jesus did, after having come out of Judaea into Galilee.

Jesus, seeing this man lying, and knowing that already for a long time he had been thus, saith to him, "Do you wish to be made well?"

And, on this account, the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because He was doing these things on the sabbath.

For this cause, therefore, the Jews were seeking the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the sabbath, but also called God His Father, making Himself equal with God.

Marvel not at this; because there is an hour coming, in which all who are in their tombs shall hear His voice,

And this He said, proving him; for He Himself knew what He was about to do.

The men, therefore, seeing the sign that He did, said, "This, truly, is the Prophet Who cometh into the world."

Jesus answered, and said to them, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on Him Whom He sent."

They said, therefore, to Him, "Lord, evermore give us this bread."

And this is the will of Him Who sent Me, that of all that He hath given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

For this is the will of My Father, that every one who beholds the Son, and believes on Him, should have eternal 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 doth He now say, 'I have come down out of Heaven'?

This is the Bread That cometh down out of Heaven, that one may eat thereof, and not die.

I am the Living Bread That came down out of Heaven: if any one eat of This Bread, he shall live forever; yea, and the Bread That I will give him is My flesh, for the life of the world."

The Jews, therefore, were wrangling with one another, saying, "How can This Man give us His flesh to eat?"

This is the Bread That came down out of Heaven. Not as the fathers ate, and died: he that eats this Bread shall live forever."

Many, therefore, of His disciples, having heard this, said, "This is a hard saying! Who can hear it?"

But Jesus, knowing in Himself that his disciples were murmuring about this, said to them, "Does this cause you to stumble?

And He said, "For this cause I have said to you, that no one can come to Me, unless it has been given to him of the Father."

From this time many of His disciples went back, and walked no more with Him.

Go ye up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because My time has not yet been fulfilled."

The Jews, therefore, were marveling, saying, "How knoweth This Man letters, having never learned!"

Jesus answered, and said to them, "I did one work, and ye all marvel because of this.

Some, therefore, of those of Jerusalem said, "Is not This He Whom they are seeking to kill?

And, behold, He is speaking openly, and they say nothing to Him! Did the rulers ever truly know that This is the Christ?

But as to This Man we know whence He is; but, when the Christ cometh, no one knows whence He is."

But of the multitude many believed on Him, and said, "When the Christ shall come, will He do more signs than those which This Man did?"

The Jews, therefore, said among themselves, "Where is This Man about to go, that we shall not find Him? Is He about to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

What is this word that He said, 'Ye will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, ye cannot come?'"

But this He spake concerning the Spirit, Whom those who believed on Him were about to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Some of the multitude, therefore, having heard these words, said, "Truly This is the Prophet;"

others said, "This is the Christ;" but some said, "What? doth the Christ come out of Nazareth?"

But this multitude, who know not the law, are accursed."

they say to Him, "Teacher, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

This they said, trying Him, that they might have whereof to accuse Him. But Jesus, having stooped down, was writing 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.

But now ye are seeking to kill Me, a Man Who hath told you the truth, which I heard from My Father: this Abraham did not.

He that is of God hears the words of God; on this account, ye hear them not, because ye are not of God."

And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

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

The neighbors, therefore, and those formerly beholding him, that he was a beggar, said, "Is not this he that sits and begs?"

Some said, "This is he;" others said, "No, but he is like him;" he said, "I am he."

Some of the Pharisees, therefore, said, "This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" And there was a division among them.

and asked them, "Is this your son, who ye say, was born blind? How, then, does he now see?"

His parents, therefore, answered and said, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

On this account, his parents said, "He is of age; ask him."

Therefore, they called a second time the man who was blind, and said to him, "Give glory to God: we know that this Man is a sinner."

We know that God hath spoken to Moses; but, as to this Man, we know not whence He is."

The man answered and said to them, "Why, in this is the wonder, that ye do not know whence He is, and He opened my eyes.

If this Man were not from God, He could do nothing."

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

And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and they shall become one flock, one Shepherd.

On this account My Father loveth Me, because I lay down My soul, that I may take it again.

No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again. This commandment I received from My Father.

And many came to Him, and said, "John, indeed, did no sign, but all things, whatsoever John spake concerning this Man, were true."

And Jesus, hearing it, said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.

Then, after this, He saith to the disciples, "Let us go into Judaea again."

Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walks in the day, he stumbles not, because he sees the light of this world;

These things He spake; and after this He saith to them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I am going to awake him out of sleep."

and whosoever lives and believes on Me shall never die. Do you believe this?"

And, saying this, she went away, and called Mary her sister privately, saying, "The Teacher is present, and calleth for you."

And some of them said, "Could not This Man, Who opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not die?"

The high priests, therefore, and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, "What are we doing? because This Man is doing many signs.

And this he said not of himself; but, being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for that nation;

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

And he said this, not because he cared about the poor; but because he was a thief; and, having the money-box, he was wont to carry what was put therein.

On this account also, the multitude met Him, because they heard that He had done this sign.

He who loves his soul loses it; and he who hates his soul in this world will keep it unto life eternal.

Now My soul has become troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save Me from this hour. But for this cause came I to this hour.

Jesus answered and said, "This voice has not come for My sake, but for your sakes.

Now is the judgment of this world: now will the Prince of this world be cast out;

But this He said, signifying by what manner of death He was about to die.

The multitude, therefore, answered Him, "We have heard out of the law that the Christ abideth forever; and how sayest Thou that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is This Son of Man?"

On this account they could not believe, because Isaiah said again,

Now, before the feast of the passover, Jesus, knowing that His hour came that He should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

for He knew him who would betray Him; on this account, He said, "Ye are not all clean."
