So they asked him again, "What are you then? Elijah?" And he answered, "Of course, I am not." "Are you the prophet?" He answered, "No."

Then they said to him, "Who are you? Tell us, so that we can have an answer to give to those who sent us. What have you to say for yourself?"

Now Jesus turned, and as He saw them following Him, He said, "What are you looking for?" They said to Him, "Rabbi," (which means Teacher), "where are you staying?"

Jesus said to her, "Woman, what have you to do with me? My time to act has not yet come."

Then the Jews addressed Him and asked, "What sign can you show us that you have authority to act in this way?"

and needed no testimony from anyone about them, for He well knew what was in human nature.

I most solemnly say to you, we know what we are talking about and we have seen what we are testifying to, yet you are all rejecting our testimony.

He continues to bear testimony to what He has actually seen and heard, and yet no one accepts His testimony.

Jesus answered her, "If you just knew what God has to give and who it is that said to you, 'Give me a drink,' you would have been the one to ask Him, and He would have given you living water."

for you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true."

You Samaritans do not know what you are worshiping; we Jews do know what we are worshiping; for salvation comes from the Jews.

Just then His disciples came up, and they were surprised to find Him talking with a woman, yet not one of them asked Him, "What do you want?" or "Why are you talking with her?"

Then a much larger number believed in Him because of what He said Himself,

and they were saying to the woman, "It is not merely because of what you said that we now believe, for we have heard Him ourselves, and we know that He is really the Saviour of the world."

Jesus said to him, "You may go; your son is going to live." The man believed what Jesus said to him and started home.

So he asked them at what hour he began to get better, and they said to him, "Yesterday at one o'clock the fever left him."

But if you do not believe what he wrote, how will you ever believe what I say?"

He was saying this to test him for He knew Himself what He was going to do.

"There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and a couple of fish, but what are they among so many?"

Then they asked Him, "What must we do to perform the works that God demands?"

So they asked Him, "What wonder-work then are you going to perform for us to see and so believe in you? What work are you going to do?

for the bread that God gives is what comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world."

The Spirit is what gives life; the flesh does not help at all. The truths that I have told you are spirit and life.

What does He mean by saying, 'You will look for me and will not find me, and you cannot come where I am going'?"

"Our law does not condemn a man before it hears what he has to say and finds out what he is doing, does it?"

In our law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now, what do you say?"

I have much to say about you and much to condemn in you, but He who sent me is truthful, and I am telling the world only what I have learned from Him."

So Jesus said to them, "When you lift the Son of Man (on the cross), you will know that I am the Christ, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but that I say exactly what my Father has instructed me to say.

Yes, He who sent me is ever with me; I am not alone, because I always practice what pleases Him."

So Jesus said to the Jews who believed in Him, "If you live in accordance with what I teach, you are really my disciples,

I am telling you what I have seen in my Father's presence, and you are practicing what you have learned from your father."

They answered Him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you are Abraham's children, you must be practicing what Abraham did.

You are practicing what your real father does." They said to Him, "We are not illegitimate children; we have one Father, even God."

Why is it that you misunderstand what I say? It is because you cannot listen to what I teach.

Whoever is sprung from God listens to what God says. This is why you do not listen to me: you are not sprung from God."

Jesus answered, "It was neither for his own sin nor for that of his parents, but to show what God could do in his case.

Then again they asked the blind man, "What do you say about Him yourself, since He has made your eyes to see?" He answered, "He is a prophet."

Again they said to him, "What did He do to you? How did He make your eyes to see again?"

Jesus told them this allegory, but they did not understand what He meant by it.

Thus many of the Jews, who came to see Mary and who saw what Jesus had done, believed in Him;

but some of them went back to the Pharisees and told them what He had done.

So the high priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the council, and began to say, "What are we to do? For this man is certainly performing many wonder-works.

So they kept looking for Jesus and saying to one another, as they stood in the temple, "What do you think? Do you think He will not come to the feast at all?"

He said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief and as the carrier of the purse for the Twelve he was in the habit of taking what was put into it.

Now my soul is troubled; what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour of agony! And yet it was for this very purpose that I came to this hour of agony.

so that the utterance of the prophet Isaiah was fulfilled: "Lord, who has believed what they heard from us? And to whom has the mighty arm of the Lord been shown?"

This is because I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father who has sent me has given me orders Himself what to say and what to tell.

Jesus answered him, "You do not now understand what I am doing, but by-and-by you will learn."

So when He had washed their feet and had put on His clothes and taken His place at the table, He said to them again: "Do you understand what I have done to you?

You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right in calling me so, for that is what I am.

For I have set you an example, in order that you too may practice what I have done to you.

As soon as he took the bread, Satan took possession of Judas. Then Jesus said to him, "Make quick work of what you are to do."

But no one else at the table knew what He meant by this,

for some of them were thinking, as Judas had the purse, that Jesus meant to say to him, "Buy what we need for the feast," or to give something to the poor.

but he is coming that the world may know that I love the Father and am doing what the Father has ordered me to do. Get up and let us go away."

You are my friends, if you keep on doing what I command you to do.

I no longer call you slaves, because the slave does not know what his master is doing; I now call you friends, because I have told you everything that I have learned from my Father.

"What I command you to do is, to keep on loving one another.

If you belonged to the world, the world would love what is its own. But it is because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, that the world hates you.

Remember what I once told you: No slave is greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will persecute you too. If they have observed my teaching, they will observe yours too.

But when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into the whole truth, for He will not speak on His own authority but will tell what is told Him, and will announce to you the things that are to come.

So some of His disciples said to one another, "What does He mean by telling us, 'In just a little while you will not see me, and yet in just a little while after you will see me again,' and 'Because I am going away to the Father'?"

So they kept saying, "What does He mean by saying, 'a little while'? We do not know what He is talking about."

So why are you questioning me? Ask those who heard what I told them. Of course, they know what I said."

Jesus answered him, "If I have said anything wrong, on oath tell what it is, but if what I have said is true, why do you slap me?"

So Pilate came outside and asked, "What is the charge you bring against this man?"

This made it possible for the word of Jesus to be fulfilled which He spoke to indicate what sort of death He was to die.

Pilate answered, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own people and their high priests have turned you over to me. What have you done?"

Pilate asked Him, "What is truth?" On saying this he went outside again to the Jews, and said to them, "As far as I can see, I can find no ground for a charge against Him.

Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have written!"

So they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but let us draw for it to see who gets it." This was to fulfill the Scripture which says, "They divided my clothes among them, and for my clothing they cast lots." Now this was what the soldiers did.

So when Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, "But, Lord, what about him?"

Jesus answered him, "If I wish him to wait until I come, what is that to you? You must keep on following me."

So the report got out among the brothers that this disciple was not going to die. But Jesus did not tell him that he was not going to die; He said only, "If I wish him to wait until I come, what is that to you?"
