This is he of whom I spake, After me cometh a man who was before me: for before me he existed.

Now there stood there six large stone jars, for the customary purifying ablution of the Jews, containing two or three baths each.

and because he had no need that any man should testify respecting man; for he knew what was in man.

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.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that every one who believeth in him should not perish, but have life eternal.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world by him might be saved.

For every one whose practices are foul hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, that his actions may not be brought to conviction.

But he who practices the truth, cometh to the light, that his actions may be evident, as being done for God.

When therefore he was come into Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all the things which he did at the feast: for they also had gone to the feast.

This person having heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, went to him, that he might come down, and cure his son: for he was at the point of death.

For occasionally an angel descended into the pool, and put the water into commotion: he therefore who first stepped in after the commotion of the water became well, under whatever complaint he had laboured.

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

The Jews therefore said to him that was cured, It is the sabbath: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.

Now he that was cured knew not who he was: for Jesus had slipped away, a crowd being on the spot.

Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing by himself, except what he hath seen the Father do: for whatsoever things he doeth, the same and in the same manner doth the Son.

For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things which he himself doeth: and greater works than these will he shew him, that ye may wonder.

For as the Father raiseth the dead, and quickeneth them; so also doth the Son quicken whom he pleases.

He was a lamp glowing and luminous: and ye were pleased for a time to exult in his light.

But I have a testimony greater than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me that I should fulfil them, these very works which I am doing, they bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.

(Now he spake this in reference to the Spirit, which they who believe on him should afterwards receive: for as yet the Holy Ghost was not given; because Jesus was not yet glorified.)

Others said, He is the Messiah. But others said, No: for cometh the Messiah out of Galilee?

They answered and said to him, Art thou not from Galilee too? Search and see: for a prophet, out of Galilee, never was raised up.

Jesus answered and said to them, Though I do bear witness of myself, my witness is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I am going.

But though I should judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.

Your father Abraham exulted for joy that he should see this day of mine: and saw it, and rejoiced.

But ye believe not, for ye are not of my sheep, as I told you.

Jesus said unto them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which work of these are ye going to stone me?

and not for that nation only, but that he should collect into one body the children of God wherever dispersed.

Then they sought for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?

Wherefore was not this aromatic ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?

Now he said this, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and kept the purse, and carried the money put therein.

Then said Jesus, Let her alone: for the day of my burial hath she reserved this.

For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.

Then the whole multitude of the Jews knew that he was there: and they came not for the sake of Jesus only, but also that they might see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.
