And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they should question him, Who art thou?

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

And they asked him, What then? art thou Elias? and he said, I am not. Art thou that prophet? and he answered, No.

Then said they to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us: What description givest thou of thyself?

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 questioned him, and said to him, Why then dost thou baptise, if thou be not the Messiah, nor Elias, nor that prophet?

And I did not know him: but he that sent me baptising with water, he said to me, Upon whomsoever thou shalt see the Spirit descending as a dove, and resting upon him, that is he who baptiseth with the Holy Ghost.

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. Then Jesus looking on him, said, Thou art Simon the son of Jonas: thou shalt be called Cephas, which, interpreted [in Greek], is Petros, a Rock.

Nathaniel saith unto him, From whence canst thou know me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.

Nathaniel answered and said to him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the king of Israel.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, dost thou believe? thou shalt see greater things than these.

and saith to him, Every man at first produces the good wine; and after men have drunk plentifully, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept back the good wine until now.

The Jews then addressed him, and said to him, What miracle shewest thou, seeing thou actest thus?

Then said the Jews, This temple has been forty-six years in building, and canst thou rear it up in three days?

this man came to Jesus in the night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles which thou dost, unless 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 sound of it, but knowest not from whence it cometh, nor whither it goeth: just so is every one who is born of the Spirit.

Jesus answered and said to him, Art thou a teacher of Israel, and knowest not these things?

And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou gavest testimony, lo! this man baptiseth, and all men come to him.

The Samaritan woman therefore saith to him, How canst thou, a Jew, ask of me, who am a Samaritan woman, to drink? for Jews avoid all intercourse with Samaritans.

Jesus answered and said to her, If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who he is that speaketh to thee, thou wouldest have requested him, and he would have given thee life-giving water.

The woman saith unto him, Thou hast no bucket, and the well is deep: whence then canst thou have this water that giveth life?

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?

The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou hast spoken right, that thou hast no husband:

for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in this thou hast spoken true.

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

And upon this came his disciples, and wondered that he talked with the woman: yet no one said, What art thou seeking? or, Why art thou talking 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.

Jesus seeing him laid there, and knowing that he had been so for a long while, saith to him, Wilt thou be made sound?

After these things Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Take care; thou art made whole: sin no more, lest something worse befall thee.

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

Then said they to him, What miracle therefore dost thou, that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work?

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 to him, 'Till when our soul dost thou hold in suspense? if thou art the Christ, tell us freely.'

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, saying, 'For a good work we do not stone thee, but for evil speaking, and because thou, being a man, dost make thyself God.'

of him whom the Father did sanctify, and send to the world, do ye say -- Thou speakest evil, because I said, Son of God I am?

therefore sent the sisters unto him, saying, 'Sir, lo, he whom thou dost love is ailing;'

the disciples say to him, 'Rabbi, now were the Jews seeking to stone thee, and again thou dost go thither!'

Martha, therefore, said unto Jesus, 'Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;

but even now, I have known that whatever thou mayest ask of God, God will give to thee;'

and every one who is alive, and believeth in me, shall never die to eternity. Believest thou this?

believest thou this?' she saith to him, 'Yes, sir, I have believed that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming to the world.'

Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, having seen him, fell at his feet, saying to him, 'Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;'

Jesus saith to her, 'Said I not to thee, that if thou mayest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?'

They took away, therefore, the stone where the dead was laid, and Jesus lifted his eyes upwards, and said, 'Father, I thank Thee, that Thou didst hear me;

and I knew that Thou always dost hear me, but, because of the multitude that is standing by, I said it, that they may believe that Thou didst send me.'

the multitude answered him, 'We heard out of the law that the Christ doth remain -- to the age; and how dost thou say, That it behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up? who is this -- the Son of Man?'

He cometh, therefore, unto Simon Peter, and that one saith to him, 'Sir, thou -- dost thou wash my feet?'

Jesus answered and said to him, 'That which I do thou hast not known now, but thou shalt know after these things;'

Peter saith to him, 'Thou mayest not wash my feet -- to the age.' Jesus answered him, 'If I may not wash thee, thou hast no part with me;'

And after the morsel, then the Adversary entered into that one, Jesus, therefore, saith to him, 'What thou dost -- 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 to him, 'Sir, whither dost thou go away?' Jesus answered him, 'Whither I go away, thou art not able now to follow me, but afterward thou shalt follow me.'

Jesus answered him, 'Thy life for me thou wilt lay down! verily, verily, I say to thee, a cock will not crow till thou mayest deny me thrice.'

Thomas saith to him, 'Sir, we have not known whither thou goest away, and how are we able to know the way?'

Jesus saith to him, 'So long time am I with you, and thou hast not known me, Philip? he who hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how dost thou say, Shew to us the Father?

Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? the sayings that I speak to you, from myself I speak not, and the Father who is abiding in me, Himself doth the works;

Judas saith to him, (not the Iscariot), 'Sir, what hath come to pass, that to us thou are about to manifest thyself, and not to 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.
