Father, that which thou hast given unto me, I wish that they may also be with me, where I am, in order that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given unto me: because thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.

Righteous Father, indeed the world does not know thee, but I know thee, and they know that thou didst send me;

I made known thy name to them, and will make it known; in order that the love with which thou didst love me may be in them, and I in them.

Jesus responded, I told you that I am He: if then you seek me, let these depart.

In order that the word which He spoke might be fulfilled, that, I have lost none of those whom thou hast given unto me.

Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And the name to that servant was Malchus.

And they led Him first to Annas; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.

And Caiaphas was the one counseling the Jews, that it is profitable that one man die for the people.

And Simon Peter and the other disciples followed Jesus. And that disciple was known to the high priest, and came with Jesus into the court of the high priest.

Then they lead Jesus from Caiaphas to the judgment hall: and it was morning. And they did not come into the judgment hall, in order that they might not be polluted, but that they might eat the passover.

In order that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which He spoke, signifying by what death He was about to die.

Jesus responded, My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would fight for me, in order that I might not be delivered to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not from thence.

Then Pilate said to Him, Then, art thou not a king? Jesus responded, Thou says that I am king. Unto this I was born, and unto this I have come into the world, in order that I may bear witness to the truth. Every one being of the truth hears my voice.

There is a custom to you, that I release unto you one during the passover. Then do you wish that I may release unto you the King of the Jews?

Again Pilate went out, and speaks to them, Behold, I lead Him out to you, in order that you may know that I find no fault.

Pilate says to Him, Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, and I have power to crucify you?

Therefore he then delivered Him to them that He should be crucified. Then they took Jesus and led Him away.

They crucified Him there, and two others with Him, on this side and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.

Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Write not, King of the Jews; but that He said, I am the King of the Jews.

Then they said to one another, Let us not tear it, but let us gamble for it, whose it shall be. In order that the Scripture may be fulfilled, saying, They divided my garments among themselves, and upon my vesture they cast the lot. Then indeed the soldiers did these things.

Then He says to the disciple, Behold, thy mother. And from that hour that disciple received her into his own home.

After this, Jesus seeing that all things are already perfected, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled, says, I thirst.

Then the Jews, in order that the bodies may not remain on the cross during the Sabbath, since it was the Preparation (for the day of that Sabbath was a high day), asked Pilate, that they might break their legs, and take them down.

But having come to Jesus, when they saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs:

And He having seen hath testified, and his testimony is true: and he knows that he speaks the truth, that you also may believe.

For these things took place, in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of Him shall not be broken.

After these things, Joseph from Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but having been hidden on account of the fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take the body of Jesus. And Pilate permitted. Then he came and took the body of Jesus.

And the two were running simultaneously: and the other disciple was running before more rapidly than Peter, and came first to the sepulcher.

for they did not yet understand the Scripture, That it behooved Him to rise from the dead.

Saying these words, she turned backward, and sees Jesus standing, and did not know that He is Jesus.

Jesus says to her, Woman, why are you weeping? whom are you seeking? She, thinking that He is the gardener, says to Him, Sir, if you have taken Him away, tell me where you have placed Him, and I will take Him.

Then it being evening, on that day, on the first day of the week, and the doors being shut where the disciples were assembled, on account of the fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and says to them, Peace be unto you.

and these have been written in order that you may believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God; and in order that believing you may have life through His name.

Simon Peter says to them, I go to fish. They say to Him, We also go along with you. They went out, and entered into a ship, and that night caught nothing.

And it being now morning, Jesus stood on the shore: the disciples did not know that He is Jesus.

Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, He is the Lord. Then Simon Peter hearing that He is the Lord, girded on his fishing-cloak (for he was unclothed), and cast Himself into the sea:

Jesus says to them, Come, take breakfast. But no one of the disciples dared to ask Him, Who art thou? knowing that He is the Lord.

Then when they took breakfast, Jesus says to Simon Peter; Simon, the son of Jonah, dost thou love me with divine love more than these? He says to Him, Yes, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee as a friend. He says to him; Feed my lambs.

Again He says to him a second time, Simon, the son of Jonah, do you love me with divine love? He says to Him; Thou knowest that I love thee as a friend. He says to him; Shepherdize my sheeplings.

He says to him a third time; Simon, the son of Jonah, do you love me as a friend? Peter was grieved, because He said to him the third time, Do you love me as a friend? And he says to Him, Lord, thou knowest all things; and thou dost understand that I love thee as a friend. He says to Him, Feed my sheeplings.

And Jesus says to him, If I wish him to tarry until I come, what is that to thee?

Then that word went out to the brethren that that disciple does not die. And Jesus did not say to him, that he does not die; but, If I wish him to tarry until I come.

This is the disciple witnessing concerning these things, and having written the same: and we know that his testimony is true.

Then indeed having received his word they were baptized, and on that day about three thousand souls were added unto them;

Peter said, Silver and gold do not belong to me; but I give thee that which I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, walk about.

And they recognized him, that he was the one sitting for alms at Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with astonishment and delight at that which had happened to him.

And you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and ask that a man who was a murderer should be delivered unto you,

And now, brethren, I know that you did it through ignorance, as did your rulers also;

and those things which God proclaimed through the mouth of all the prophets that his Christ should suffer, he hath thus fulfilled.

Repent, therefore, and turn, that your sins may be blotted out, in order that seasons of soul-renewing may come from the presence of the Lord,

And it shall come to pass, that every soul whosoever will not hear that prophet, shall be cut off from the people.

let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, through him this man now stands sound in your presence.

And seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and apprehending that they are unlearned and ignorant men, they continued to be astonished, and recognized them, that they were with Jesus;

saying, What can we do to these men? for that a notable miracle has been wrought by them is indeed manifest to all dwelling at Jerusalem, and we are not able to deny it;

but that it may extend no further unto the people, let us threaten them to speak no more in this name to any one of men.

And Peter and John responding said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken unto you rather than God, judge ye;

And they having threatened them, in addition sent them away, finding nothing to the end that they can punish them, on account of the people, because all continued to glorify God over that which had taken place;

for the man on whom this miracle of healing was wrought was more than forty years old.

and there was great joy in that city.

And a certain man, by name Simon, was formerly practicing magic in the city, and bewitching the nation of Samaria, saying that himself was some great man:

But the apostles in Jerusalem, having heard that Samaria has received the word of God, sent to them Peter and John:

who, having come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost.

But Simon seeing that by the laying on of the hands of the apostles the Spirit was given, offered them money, saying,

Give me this power, that on whomsoever I may lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.

and immediately he was preaching Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

And all those hearing were astonished, and continued to say, Is not this the one laying waste those calling on this name in Jerusalem? and has come hither for this, that he may lead them bound to the chief priests.
