And they were sent from among the Pharisees.

These things took place in Bethany, across the Jordan, where John was baptising.

But Jesus having turned, and seeing them following, says to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi (which, being interpreted, signifies Teacher), where abidest thou?

He says to them, Come and see. They went therefore, and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.

And Jesus also, and his disciples, were invited to the marriage.

Now there were standing there six stone water-vessels, according to the purification of the Jews, holding two or three measures each.

The wind blows where it will, and thou hearest its voice, but knowest not whence it comes and where it goes: thus is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that which we know, and we bear witness of that which we have seen, and ye receive not our witness.

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

For every one that does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light that his works may not be shewn as they are;

And John also was baptising in Aenon, near Salim, because there was a great deal of water there; and they came to him and were baptised:

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

Our fathers worshipped in this mountain, and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where one must worship.

And upon this came his disciples, and wondered that he spoke with a woman; yet no one said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?

Do not ye say, that there are yet four months and the harvest comes? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and behold the fields, for they are already white to harvest.

He came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain courtier in Capernaum whose son was sick.

The courtier says to him, Sir, come down ere my child die.

Wonder not at this, for an hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs shall hear his voice,

He was the burning and shining lamp, and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.

After these things Jesus went away beyond the sea of Galilee, or of Tiberias,

Philip answered him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not sufficient for them, that each may have some little portion.

And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed them to those that were set down; and in like manner of the small fishes as much as they would.

And when they had been filled, he says to his disciples, Gather together the fragments which are over and above, that nothing may be lost.

They gathered them therefore together, and filled twelve hand-baskets full of fragments of the five barley loaves, which were over and above to those that had eaten.

Jesus therefore knowing that they were going to come and seize him, that they might make him king, departed again to the mountain himself alone.

Having rowed then about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they see Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the ship; and they were frightened.

They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.

(but other little ships out of Tiberias came near to the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks;)

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.

Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and died.

If then ye see the Son of man ascending up where he was before?

It is the Spirit which quickens, the flesh profits nothing: the words which I have spoken unto you are spirit and are life.

But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would deliver him up.

Jesus therefore says to them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.

The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.

The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

If any one desire to practise his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is of God, or that I speak from myself.

If a man receives circumcision on sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be violated, are ye angry with me because I have made a man entirely sound on sabbath?

Ye shall seek me and shall not find me, and where I am ye cannot come.

The Jews therefore said to one another, Where is he 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 word is this which he said, Ye shall seek me and shall not find me; and where I am ye cannot come?

But this he said concerning the Spirit, which they that believed on him were about to receive; for the Spirit was not yet, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

Has not the scripture said that the Christ comes of the seed of David, and from the village of Bethlehem, where David was?

The Pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also deceived?

Has any one of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees?

But this crowd, which does not know the law, are accursed.

Does our law judge a man before it have first heard from himself, and know what he does?

And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee?

And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true:

They said to him therefore, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father.

He said therefore again to them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin; where I go ye cannot come.

The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he says, Where I go ye cannot come?

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

I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins; for unless ye shall believe that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

And he that has sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, because I do always the things that are pleasing to him.

Jesus therefore said to the Jews who believed him, If ye abide in my word, ye are truly my disciples;

They answered him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never been under bondage to any one; how sayest thou, Ye shall become free?

I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word has no entrance in you.

I speak what I have seen with my Father, and ye then do what ye have seen with your father.

They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham;

Ye do the works of your father. They said therefore to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, God.

Jesus said to them, If God were your father ye would have loved me, for I came forth from God and am come from him; for neither am I come of myself, but he has sent me.

Ye are of the devil, as your father, and ye desire to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks falsehood, he speaks of what is his own; for he is a liar and its father:

He that is of God hears the words of God: therefore ye hear them not, because ye are not of God.

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

Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who glorifies me, of whom ye say, He is our God.

Your father Abraham exulted in that he should see my day, and he saw and rejoiced.

And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind?

They said therefore to him, Where is he? He says, I do not know.

And they asked them saying, This is your son, of whom ye say that he was born blind: how then does he now see?

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

but how he now sees we do not know, or who has opened his eyes we do not know. He is of age: ask him; he will speak concerning himself.

They railed at him, and said, Thou art his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

If this man were not of God he would be able to do nothing.

And some of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, Are we blind also?

Jesus said to them, If ye were blind ye would not have sin; but now ye say, We see, your sin remains.

All whoever came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them.

but he who serves for wages, and who is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf seizes them and scatters the sheep.

I am the good shepherd; and I know those that are mine, and am known of those that are mine,

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

Others said, These sayings are not those of one that is possessed by a demon. Can a demon open blind people's eyes?

The Jews therefore surrounded him, and said to him, Until when dost thou hold our soul in suspense? If thou art the Christ, say so to us openly.

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

I and the Father are one.

Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

and departed again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptising at the first: and he abode there.

And many came to him, and said, John did no sign; but all things which John said of this man were true.

When therefore he heard, He is sick, he remained two days then in the place where he was.

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world;

These things said he; and after this he says to them, Lazarus, our friend, is fallen asleep, but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.

And I rejoice on your account that I was not there, in order that ye may believe. But let us go to him.

Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha came to meet him.

The Jews therefore who were with her in the house and consoling her, seeing Mary that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, She goes to the tomb, that she may weep there.

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

and said, Where have ye put him? They say to him, Lord, come and see.

If we let him thus alone, all will believe on him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.

But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, Ye know nothing

But this he did not say of himself; but, being high priest that year, prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation;

and not for the nation only, but that he should also gather together into one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commandment that if any one knew where he was, he should make it known, that they might take him.
