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

Who art thou? and he confessed and denied not, and confessed that, I am not the Christ.

art thou then Elias? said they; and he answer'd, I am not. art thou a prophet? and he answer'd, no.

said they to him, who then art thou? that we may give an answer to those that sent us: what sayst thou of thy self?

What sayest thou of thyself? He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaiah.

And they asked him, and said unto him, Why then baptizest thou, if thou art not the Christ, neither Elijah, neither the prophet?

I had not known him: but he that sent me to baptize with water, had told me, "upon whom thou shalt see the spirit descending and remaining on him, the same is he who baptizeth with the holy spirit."

And Jesus turned, and beheld them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? And they said unto him, Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), where abideth thou?

What do you seek? They said to him: Rabbi, (which, when translated, is called Teacher,) where abidest thou?

and he brought him to Jesus. and when Jesus beheld him, he said, "thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas," which is by interpretation, a stone.

Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

Nathanael answered, rabbi, thou art the son of God, thou art the king of Israel.

Jesus answered him, because thou believest what I said, that I saw thee under the fig-tree, thou shalt see greater things than these.

and saith unto him, Every man setteth on first the good wine; and when men have drunk freely, then that which is worse: thou hast kept the good wine until now.

The Jews therefore answered and said unto him, What sign showest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

to this said the Jews, forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

who came to Jesus by night, and said to him, rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher sent from God: for no man can perform the miracles that you do, except God be with him.

'Thou mayest not wonder that I said to thee, It behoveth you to be born from above;

The wind bloweth where it will, and thou hearest the voice thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou the teacher of Israel, and understandest not these things?

And they came unto John, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.

The Samaritan woman therefore saith unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

Jesus answered and said unto unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou that living water?

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?

The woman answered and said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:

for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said truly.

The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

And upon this came his disciples; and they marvelled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?

and said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of what thou hast spoken; for we ourselves have heard Him, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case , he saith unto him, Wouldest thou be made whole?

Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing befall thee.

And when they found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?

They said therefore unto him, What then doest thou for a sign, that we may see, and believe thee? what workest thou?

Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

And we have believed and know that thou art the Holy One of God.

His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest.

For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

The Jews meanwhile kept looking for him at feast, and saying, "Where is he?" "I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own Name these whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are one.

and there was much disputing about him among the crowd. Some would say, "He is a good man." Others. "No! he is misleading the people." "While I was with them I kept them by the power of thy name which thou hast given me. I guarded them, and none of them was lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

The Jews were amazed. They said, "How does this fellow know the sacred writings when he has never learned them?" "I am not asking that thou wilt take them out of the world, but that thou wilt protect them from the Evil One.

The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?

They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and see that out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.

Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such: what then sayest thou of her?

The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true.

They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? Jesus said unto them, Even that which I have also spoken unto you from the beginning.

They answered unto him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never yet been in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?

The Jews answered and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?

The Jews said unto him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death.

Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died: whom makest thou thyself?

Whom makest thou thyself? Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me, of whom ye say, He is our God.

The Jews therefore said unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?

They say therefore unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, in that he opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.

And they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.

They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and finding him, he said, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?

Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and he it is that speaketh with thee.

The Jews therefore came round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou hold us in suspense? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.

If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. Jesus answered them, I have told you; yet ye do not believe: the works that I do in my Father's name, they testify of me.

The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the'son of God?

The sisters therefore sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

The disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews were but now seeking to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

Martha therefore said unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

And even now I know that, whatsoever thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee.

and whosoever liveth and believeth on me shall never die. Believest thou this?

do you believe this? yes, Lord, said Martha, I believe that thou art the Messiah the son of God, who was to come into the world.

Mary therefore, when she came where Jesus was, and saw him, fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou believedst, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

then they took away the stone from the place where the corps was laid. and Jesus lifting up his eyes to heaven said, "father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

I know that thou hearest me always: but I say this, because of the people here present, that they may believe that thou hast sent me."

The multitude therefore answered him, We have heard out of the law that the Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?

So he cometh to Simon Peter. He saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt understand hereafter.

Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

And after the sop, then entered Satan into him. Jesus therefore saith unto him, What thou doest, do quickly.

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

Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered, Whither I go, thou canst not follow now; but thou shalt follow afterwards.

Jesus answered him, you lay down your life for my sake! Verily, verily I say unto thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way?

Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and dost thou not know me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; how sayest thou, Show us the Father?

Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his works.

Judas (not Iscariot) saith unto him, Lord, what is come to pass that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

and now I go away to Him who sent me, and none of you doth ask me, Whither dost thou go?

His disciples say to him, 'Lo, now freely thou dost speak, and no similitude speakest thou;

now we have known that thou hast known all things, and hast no need that any one do question thee; in this we believe that from God thou didst come forth.'

These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes and said, Father, the hour is come: glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh,

according as Thou didst give to him authority over all flesh, that -- all that Thou hast given to him -- he may give to them life age-during;

and this is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send -- Jesus Christ;

I did glorify Thee on the earth, the work I did finish that Thou hast given me, that I may do it.

'And now, glorify me, Thou Father, with Thyself, with the glory that I had before the world was, with Thee;

I did manifest Thy name to the men whom Thou hast given to me out of the world; Thine they were, and to me Thou hast given them, and Thy word they have kept;

now they have known that all things, as many as Thou hast given to me, are from Thee,

because the sayings that Thou hast given to me, I have given to them, and they themselves received, and have known truly, that from Thee I came forth, and they did believe that Thou didst send me.

'I ask in regard to them; not in regard to the world do I ask, but in regard to those whom Thou hast given to me, because Thine they are,

and no more am I in the world, and these are in the world, and I come unto Thee. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, whom Thou hast given to me, that they may be one as we;

when I was with them in the world, I was keeping them in Thy name; those whom Thou hast given to me I did guard, and none of them was destroyed, except the son of the destruction, that the Writing may be fulfilled.

I do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.

as Thou didst send me to the world, I also did send them to the world;

that they all may be one, as Thou Father art in me, and I in Thee; that they also in us may be one, that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.
