(And they had been sent from the Pharisees.)

Now when the head steward tasted the water which had become wine and did not know where it was from--but the servants who had drawn the water knew--the head steward summoned the bridegroom

So when he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the scripture and the saying that Jesus had spoken.

(For John had not yet been thrown into prison.)

Now when Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

Now he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the piece of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

And Jacob's well was there, so Jesus, [because he] had become tired from the journey, simply sat down at the well. It was about the sixth hour.

(For his disciples had gone away into the town so that they could buy food.)

Jesus answered and said to her, "If you had known the gift of God and who it is who says to you, 'Give me [water] to drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."

for you have had five husbands, and [the one] whom you have now is not your husband; this you have said truthfully!"

So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, [because they] had seen all [the things] he had done in Jerusalem at the feast (for they themselves had also come to the feast).

Now he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And [there] was at Capernaum a certain royal official whose son was sick.

This man, [when he] heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, went to him and asked that he come down and heal his son, for he was about to die.

So he inquired from them the hour at which he had gotten better. Then they said to him, "Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him."

And a certain man was there who had [been] thirty-eight years in his sickness.

Jesus, [when he] saw this one lying [there] and knew that he had [been sick] a long time already, said to him, "Do you want to become well?"

So the Jews were saying to the one who had been healed, "It is the Sabbath, and it is not permitted for you to pick up the mat!"

But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn [while] a crowd was in the place.

For if you had believed Moses, you would believe me, for that one wrote about me.

Then Jesus took the bread, and [after he] had given thanks, he distributed [it] to those who were reclining--likewise also of the fish, as much as they wanted.

So they gathered [them], and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

And getting into a boat, they began to go to the other side of the sea, to Capernaum. And it had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

Then [when they] had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they were afraid.

On the next day, the crowd that was on the other side of the sea saw that other boats were not there (except one), and that Jesus had not entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had departed alone.

Other boats from Tiberias came near the place where they had eaten the bread [after] the Lord had given thanks.

And [when he] had said these [things], he remained in Galilee.

But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not openly, but (as it were) in secret.

So they were seeking to seize him, and no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

Now he said this concerning the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were about to receive. For the Spirit was not yet [given], because Jesus had not yet been glorified.)

So they were saying to him, "Where is your father?" Jesus replied, "You know neither me nor my Father! If you had known me, you would have known my Father also."

He spoke these words by the treasury [while] teaching in the temple [courts], and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.

Then Jesus said to those Jews who had believed him, "If you continue in my word you are truly my disciples,

[When he] had said these [things], he spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva, and smeared the clay on his eyes.

So the Jews did not believe concerning him that he had been blind and received sight, until they summoned the parents of the one who received sight.

(His parents said these [things] because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already decided that if anyone should confess him [to be] Christ, he would be expelled from the synagogue.

So they summoned the man who had been blind for the second time and said to him, "Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner!"

Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"

(Now Jesus had been speaking about his death, but they thought that he was speaking about {real sleep}.)

So [when he] arrived, Jesus found he had already [been] four days in the tomb.

So Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.

And [when she] had said this, she went and called her sister Mary privately, saying, "The Teacher is here and is calling for you."

Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was [and] saw him, fell at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the one who had died, said to him, "Lord, he is stinking already, because it has been four days."

And [when he] had said these [things], he cried out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"

The one who had died came out, his feet and his hands bound with strips of cloth, and his face wrapped with a facecloth. Jesus said to them, "Untie him and let him go."

Then many of the Jews who had come with Mary and saw [the things] which he did believed in him.

But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them [the things] which Jesus had done.

(Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, they should report [it], in order that they could arrest him.)

Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

On the next day the large crowd who had come to the feast, [when they] heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

(His disciples did not understand these [things] at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these [things] had been written about him and they did these [things] to him.)

Because of this also the crowd went to meet him, for they had heard [that] he had performed this sign.

Now some Greeks were among those who had gone up in order to worship at the feast.

Now the crowd that stood [there] and heard [it] said {it had thundered}. Others were saying, "An angel has spoken to him!"

But as many signs [as] he had performed before them, they did not believe in him,

Now before the feast of Passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, [and] having loved [his] own in the world, loved them to the end.

And [as] a dinner was taking place, [when] the devil had already put into the heart of Judas [son] of Simon Iscariot that he should betray him,

[because he] knew that the Father had given him all [things] into [his] hands, and that he had come forth from God and was going away to God,

Then he poured water into the washbasin and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe [them] dry with the towel {which he had tied around himself}.

So when he had washed their feet and taken his outer clothing and reclined at table again, he said to them, "Do you understand what I have done for you?

[When he] had said these [things], Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified and said, "Truly, truly I say to you that one of you will betray me."

For some were thinking because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, "Purchase {what we need} for the feast," or that he should give something to the poor.)

So [after he] had taken the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.

Then, when he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.

If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you know him and have seen him."

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin. But now they do not have a valid excuse for their sin.

If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have sin. But now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

And now, Father, you glorify me {at your side} with the glory that I had {at your side} before the world existed.

[When] Jesus had said these [things], he went out with his disciples to the other side of the ravine of the Kidron, where [there] was a garden into which he and his disciples entered.

in order that the word that he had spoken would be fulfilled: "Those whom you have given to me--I have not lost anyone of them."

Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear. (Now the name of the slave was Malchus.)

(Now it was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it was better [that] one man die for the people.)

Now [when] he had said these [things], one of the officers who was standing by gave a slap in the face to Jesus, saying, "Do you reply to the high priest in this way?"

One of the slaves of the high priest, who was related to the one whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"

in order that the word of Jesus would be fulfilled that he had spoken, indicating by what sort of death he was going to die.

Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" And [when he] had said this, he went out again to the Jews and said to them, "I find no basis for an accusation against him.

So then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged.

Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his clothing and made four shares--for each soldier a share--and the tunic. (Now the tunic was seamless, woven from the top {in a single piece}.)

Then when he had received the sour wine, Jesus said, "It is completed," and bowing [his] head, he gave up [his] spirit.

So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who had been crucified with him.

And Nicodemus--the one who had come to him formerly at night--also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes [weighing] about a hundred pounds.

Now on the first [day] of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, [while it] was still dark, and saw the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

So then the other disciple who had come to the tomb first also went in, and he saw and believed.

and she saw two angels in white, seated one at the head and one at the feet where the body of Jesus had been lying.

[When she] had said these [things], she turned {around} and saw Jesus standing there, and she did not know that it was Jesus.

Mary Magdalene came [and] announced to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord," and he had said these [things] to her.

Now [when it] was evening on that day--the first [day] of the week--and the doors had been shut where the disciples were because of fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, "Peace to you."

And [when he] had said this, he showed [his] hands and [his] side to them. Then the disciples rejoiced [when they] saw the Lord.

And [when he] had said this, he breathed on [them] and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.

And after eight days his disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. [Although] the doors had been shut, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said, "Peace to you."

This [was] now [the] third [time] Jesus was revealed to the disciples [after he] had been raised from the dead.

Now when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon [son] of John, do you love me more than these?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord, you know that I love you." He said to him, "Feed my lambs!"

(Now he said this to indicate by what kind of death he would glorify God.) And [after he] had said this, he said to him, "Follow me!"
