But they answered, saying: Crucify, crucify him.

He said to them the third time: Why, what evil has he done? I have found nothing in him worthy of death. I will, therefore, chastise him, and release him.

And he released him that for a seditious movement, and for murder, had been thrown into prison, whom they demanded; but Jesus, he delivered up to their will.

And as they led him away, they laid hold of Simon, a certain Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might carry it after Jesus.

And there followed him a great number of the people, and of women that bewailed and lamented him.

And two others, who were evil-doers, were led out to be put to death with him.

And when they came to the place called Skull, they there crucified him and the evil-doers; one on the right, and the other on the left.

And the people stood and looked on. And the rulers, with them scoffed at him, saying: He saved others, let him save himself if he is the Christ, the chosen of God.

The soldiers also derided him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,

And a superscription was also written over him in Greek and in Roman and in Hebrew letters, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

And one of the evil-doers that were hanged reviled him, saying: If you are the Christ, save yourself and us.

But the other answering, rebuked him, saying: Do you not fear God, since you are in the same condemnation?

And Jesus said to him: Verily I say to you, to-day you shall be with me in paradise.

And all his acquaintance, and the women that had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance looking on these things.

And the women that had come with him from Galilee followed after and saw the sepulcher, and how his body was laid.

And while they feared and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them: Why seek you among the dead for him that lives?

But their eyes were restrained, so that they did not recognize him.

And one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered and said to him: Are you only a stranger in Jerusalem, and have not known the things that have taken place there in these days?

And he said to them: What things? They said to him: The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and in word before God and all the people;

and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

And some of those who were with us went to the sepulcher, and found it even as the women had said, but him they saw not.

And they constrained him, saying: Remain with us, for it is near the evening, and the day has declined. And he went in to remain with them.

And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he disappeared from them.

And while they were speaking of these things, Jesus him self stood in the midst of them, and said to them: Peace be to you.

And they gave him a piece of broiled fish, and of a honey comb.

And they worshiped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy;

All things were made by him, and without him not one thing was made that now exists.

In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

This man came as a witness, to testify of the Light, that all through him might believe.

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

He came to his own country, and his own people received him not.

But as many as received him, to them he gave the privilege of be coming the children of God, even to those who believe on his name;

John testified of him, and cried, saying: This is he of whom I said: He that comes after me, is now before me, for he existed before me.

No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has revealed him.

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him: Who are you?

And they asked him: What then? Are you Elijah? And he said: I am not. Are you the prophet? And he answered: No.

They then said to him: Who are you? that we may give an answer to those who sent us; what say you of yourself?

and they asked him, and said to him: Why, then, do you immerse, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?

The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said: Behold the Lamb of God, that takes away the sin of the world.

And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, for this reason I have come immersing in water.

And John testified, saying: I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him.

And I knew him not; but he that sent me to immerse in water, said to me, On whom you shall see the Spirit descending and remaining, this is he that immerses in the Holy Spirit.

And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

What do you seek? They said to him: Rabbi, (which, when translated, is called Teacher,) where abidest thou?

He said to them: Come and see. They went and saw where he abode; and they remained with him that day; for it was about the tenth hour.

One of the two that heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter.

He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him: We have found the Messiah; (which, when translated, is the Christ;)

and he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking on him, said: You are Simon, the son of Jonah; you shall be called Cephas (which, when translated, is Rock).

The day following, Jesus wished to go into Galilee; and he found Philip, and said to him: Follow me.

Philip found Nathaniel, and said to him: We have found him of whom Moses in the law and the prophets did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the SOD of Joseph.

And Nathaniel said to him: Can any thing good come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him: Come and see.

Jesus saw Nathaniel coming to him, and said of him: Be hold, an Israelite in truth, in whom there is no guile.

Nathaniel said to him: How knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him: Before Philip called you, while you were under the fig-tree, I saw you.

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

Jesus answered and said to him: Do you believe, be cause I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree? You shall see greater things than these. And he said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, From this time you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

And the wine having failed, the mother of Jesus said to him: They have no wine.

When the governor of the feast had tasted the water that had been made wine, (and he knew not whence it was, but the servants that had drawn the water knew,) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, and said to him:

This beginning of signs Jesus made in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

Then answered the Jews and said to him: What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?

Then the Jews said to him: Forty and six years was this temple in building, and will you rebuild it in three days?

This man came to Jesus by night, and said to him: Rabbi, we know that thou hast come as a teacher from God; for no man can do these signs which thou doest, unless God be with him.

Jesus answered and said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, unless a man be born again, he can not see the kingdom of God.

Nicodemus said to him: How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb the second time, and be born?

Nicodemus answered and said to him: How can these things be?

Jesus answered and said to him: Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not understand these things?

that whoever believes on him may not perish, but have eternal life.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes on him should not perish, but have eternal life.

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

He that believes on him is not condemned; but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God.

And they came to John, and said to him: Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore testimony, behold, he immerses, and all are going to him.

John answered and said: A man can receive nothing unless it be given to him from heaven.

You yourselves will testify for me, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.

He that has the bride, is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly on account of the voice of the bridegroom. This, my joy, is therefore complete.

For he whom God has sent, speaks the words of God; for God gives not the Spirit by measure to him.

He that believes on the Son has eternal life. But he that believes not the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.

Then the woman of Samaria said to him: How is it that you, who are a Jew, ask drink of me, who am a woman of Samaria? (For the Jews have no social intercourse with the Samaritans.)

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

The woman said to him: Sir, you have ho vessel with which you can draw, and the well is deep; whence have you that living water?

but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him, shall never thirst. But the water that I will give him, shall be in him a fountain of water springing up in order to eternal life.

The woman said to him: Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.

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

But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father seeks such to worship him.

God is spirit; and they that worship him, must worship him in spirit and in truth.

The woman said to him: I know that Messiah (who is called Christ) is coming; when he comes, he will tell us all things.

Then they went out of the city and came to him.

In the mean time, the disciples besought him, saying: Rabbi, eat.

Then the disciples said one to another: Has any one brought him food?

Jesus said to them: My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him, because of the word of the woman who testified, He told me all things that I ever did.

When, therefore, the Samaritans came to him, they besought him to abide with them. And he abode there two days.

Therefore, when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, because they had seen all things that he had done in Jerusalem during the feast; for they them selves had gone to the feast.

When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and besought him that he would come down, and restore his son to health, for he was about to die.

Then said Jesus to him: Unless you see signs and wonders, you will not believe.

The courtier said to him: Sir, come down before my child die.

Jesus said to him: Go, your child lives. And the man believed the word that Jesus spoke, and departed.

And as he was going down, his servants met him, and said: Your son lives.

Then he inquired of them the hour in which he was restored to health. And they said to him: Yesterday, at the seventh hour, the fever left him.

Then his father knew that it was in the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Your son lives. And he himself, and all his house, believed.

When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been already a long time in that condition, he said to him: Do you wish to be restored to health?

The sick man answered him: Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred; but while I am coming, another goes down before me.
