She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God's Son, he who comes into the world."

And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

So that one, when she heard [it], got up quickly and went to him.

The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.

Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,

And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.

They say to him, Lord, come and see. Jesus wept.

So the Jews were saying, “See how He loved him [as a close friend]!”

But some of them said, “Could not this Man, who opened the blind man’s eyes, have kept this man from dying?”

So Jesus, deeply troubled in heart, came to the place of the dead. It was a hole in the rock, and a stone was over the opening.

“Remove the stone,” Jesus said.

Martha, the dead man’s sister, told Him, “Lord, he’s already decaying. It’s been four days.”

Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou heardest me.

I knew that You always hear Me and listen to Me; but I have said this because of the people standing around, so that they may believe that You have sent Me [and that You have made Me Your representative].”

So saying, he exclaimed with a loud cry, "Lazarus, come out!"

Many therefore of the Jews who came to Mary and saw what he had done, believed on him;

So the chief priests and Pharisees convened a council [of the leaders in Israel], and said, “What are we doing? For this man performs many signs (attesting miracles).

You do not see that it is in your interest for one man to be put to death for the people, so that all the nation may not come to destruction.

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

So from that day forth they took counsel that they might put him to death.

So Jesus was no longer walking openly among the Jews, but went away from there to the region near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there he stayed with the disciples.

Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up to Jerusalem from the [surrounding] country before the Passover, so that they could purify themselves.

So they were looking for Jesus as they stood in the temple [area], and saying among themselves, “What do you think? Will He not come to the feast at all?”

and both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if any one may know where he is, he may shew it, so that they may seize him.

Six days before the Passover, Jesus went to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom He had raised from the dead.

So they made him a supper there: and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of them that sat at meat with him.

Then Mary took a pound of fragrant oil—pure and expensive nard—anointed Jesus’ feet, and wiped His feet with her hair. So the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.

Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,

“Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and [the money] given to the poor?”

Now he said this, not because he cared about the poor [for he had never cared about them], but because he was a thief; and since he had the money box [serving as treasurer for the twelve disciples], he used to pilfer what was put into it.

So Jesus said, "Leave her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of my preparation for burial.

Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

So the chief priests planned to kill Lazarus also,

since he was the reason why so many of the Jews were leaving to believe in Jesus.

they took branches of palm trees [in homage to Him as King] and went out to meet Him, and they began shouting and kept shouting “Hosanna! Blessed (celebrated, praised) is He who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!”

So Jesus found a young donkey [and] sat on it, just as it is written,

Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

So the crowd who was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead were continuing to testify.

But the crowd that went out to meet Jesus [i.e., as He entered Jerusalem] did so because they had heard about Him performing this [miraculous] sign [i.e., of raising Lazarus].

The Pharisees therefore said to one another, Ye see that ye profit nothing: behold, the world is gone after him.

Now there were certain Greeks among those going up to Jerusalem to worship [God] at the [Passover] Festival [Note: These people were God-fearing Gentiles like Cornelius. See Acts 10].

The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

Philip comes and says to Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip say to Jesus.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

So he, that loveth his life, shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, shall preserve it unto life eternal.

Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

[Rather, I will say,] ‘Father, glorify (honor, extol) Your name!’” Then a voice came from heaven saying, “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.”

So, the multitude that was standing by, and heard it, were saying - It hath, thundered. Others, were saying - A messenger, unto him, hath spoken.

Jesus answered and said, This voice came not for my sake, but for your's.

the multitude answered him, 'We heard out of the law that the Christ doth remain -- to the age; and how dost thou say, That it behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up? who is this -- the Son of Man?'

So Jesus said to them, “The Light is among you [only] a little while longer. Walk while you have the Light [keep on living by it], so that darkness will not overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going [he is drifting aimlessly].

While you have the light, believe in the light so that you may become sons of light.” Jesus said this, then went away and hid from them.

But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:

This was to fulfill what Isaiah the prophet said: “Lord, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm (the power) of the Lord been shown (unveiled, revealed)?”

So they could not believe; for Isaiah says again,

He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

Yet despite that, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess [it], so that they would not be expelled from the synagogue.

for they loved men's praise more than God's praise.

But Jesus cried aloud, "He who believes in me, believes not so much in me, as in Him who sent me;

I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes and trusts in Me [as Savior—all those who anchor their hope in Me and rely on the truth of My message] will not continue to live in darkness.

And if any man hears my sayings, and will not believe, I do not judge him, for I came not so that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.

For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.

And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;

got up from supper, took off His [outer] robe, and taking a [servant’s] towel, He tied it around His waist.

Then He poured water into the basin and began washing the disciples’ feet and wiping them with the towel which was tied around His waist.

So he cometh to Simon Peter. He saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Jesus said to him, he that comes out from bathing has occasion only to wash his feet, the rest of his body being clean: so you are clean, but not every one of you.

For he knew who was going to betray him. That's why he said, "Not all of you are clean."

So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?

Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.

If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

For I gave you [this as] an example, so that you should do [in turn] as I did to you.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

I am not talking of you all: I have knowledge of my true disciples, but things are as they are, so that the Writings may come true, The foot of him who takes bread with me is lifted up against me.

From now on I am telling you [what will happen] before it occurs, so that when it does take place you may believe that I am He [who I say I am—the Christ, the Anointed, the Messiah].

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

There was at table one of His disciples--the one Jesus loved-- reclining with his head on Jesus's bosom.

So Simon Peter motioned to him (John) and [quietly] asked [him to ask Jesus] of whom He was speaking.

So he leaned back against Jesus and asked Him, “Lord, who is it?”

Jesus therefore answereth, He it is, for whom I shall dip the sop, and give it him. So when he had dipped the sop, he taketh and giveth it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

Then after [he ate] the piece of bread, Satan entered Judas' heart. So, Jesus said to him, "Do what you are going to do, and do it quickly."

but the company at table did not know what he meant by saying so.

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

After taking the piece of bread, he went out immediately; and it was night.

So when he was gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him.

If God has been glorified by him, God himself also will glorify the Son of Man, and he will do so quickly.

Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too are to love one another.

Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself, so that where I am, you may be also.

Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going; so how can we know the way?”

Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father and then we will be satisfied.”

Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his works.

Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe [Me] because of the [very] works themselves [which you have witnessed].
