Therefore He came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a royal official whose son was sick at Capernaum.

When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was imploring Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.

This is again a second sign that Jesus performed when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

A man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.

When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had already been a long time in that condition, He *said to him, “Do you wish to get well?”

But the man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away while there was a crowd in that place.

The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

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

Therefore when the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.”

and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

Then, when they had rowed about three or four miles, they *saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were frightened.

The next day the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other small boat there, except one, and that Jesus had not entered with His disciples into the boat, but that His disciples had gone away alone.

There came other small boats from Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

But when His brothers had gone up to the feast, then He Himself also went up, not publicly, but as if, in secret.

So they were seeking to seize Him; and no man laid his hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

These words He spoke in the treasury, as He taught in the temple; and no one seized Him, because His hour had not yet come.

They did not realize that He had been speaking to them about the Father.

So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine;

When He had said this, He spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and applied the clay to his eyes,

The Jews then did not believe it of him, that he had been blind and had received sight, until they called the parents of the very one who had received his sight,

His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed Him to be Christ, he was to be put out of the synagogue.

So a second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, “Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.”

Jesus heard that they had put him out, and finding him, He said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”

This figure of speech Jesus spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He had been saying to them.

Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that He was speaking of literal sleep.

So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

Martha then said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

When she had said this, she went away and called Mary her sister, saying secretly, “The Teacher is here and is calling for you.”

Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met Him.

Therefore, when Mary came where Jesus was, she saw Him, and fell at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”

When He had said these things, He cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth.”

The man who had died came forth, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus *said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”

Therefore many of the Jews who came to Mary, and saw what He had done, 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, he was to report it, so that they might seize Him.

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

Now he said this, not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief, and as he had the money box, he used to pilfer what was put into it.

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

These things His disciples did not understand at the first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of Him, and that they had done these things to Him.

For this reason also the people went and met Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign.

So the crowd of people who stood by and heard it were saying that it had thundered; others were saying, “An angel has spoken to Him.”

But though He had performed so many signs before them, yet they were not believing in Him.

Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come forth from God and was going back to God,

So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?

When Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit, and testified and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, that one of you will betray Me.”

Jesus then *answered, “That is the one for whom I shall dip the morsel and give it to him.” So when He had dipped the morsel, He *took and *gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

Now no one of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him.

For some were supposing, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we have need of for the feast”; or else, that he should give something to the poor.

Therefore when he had gone out, Jesus *said, “Now is the Son of Man 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 have no excuse for their sin.

If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated Me and My Father as well.

Now, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.

When Jesus had spoken these words, He went forth with His disciples over the ravine of the Kidron, where there was a garden, in which He entered with His disciples.

Now Judas also, who was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often met there with His disciples.

Now Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it was expedient for one man to die on behalf of the people.

When He had said this, one of the officers standing nearby struck Jesus, saying, “Is that the way You answer the high priest?”

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 guilt in Him.

Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me, unless it had been given you from above; for this reason he who delivered Me to you has the greater sin.”

Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His outer garments and made four parts, a part to every soldier and also the tunic; now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece.

After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, *said, “I am thirsty.”

Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit.

Nicodemus, who had first come to Him by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight.

Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.

and the face-cloth which had been on His head, not lying with the linen wrappings, but rolled up in a place by itself.

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

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

When she had said this, she turned around and *saw Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus.

Mary Magdalene *came, announcing to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and that He had said these things to her.

And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples then rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

And when He had said this, He breathed on them and *said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

So when they had finished 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, “Tend My lambs.”

Now this He said, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He *said to him, “Follow Me!”

Peter, turning around, *saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them; the one who also had leaned back on His bosom at the supper and said, “Lord, who is the one who betrays You?”

until the day when He was taken up to heaven, after He had by the Holy Spirit given orders to the apostles whom He had chosen.

Gathering them together, He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, “Which,” He said, “you heard of from Me;

So when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying, “Lord, is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?”

And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.

When they had entered the city, they went up to the upper room where they were staying; that is, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.

“Brethren, the Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit foretold by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus.

When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.

And so, because he was a prophet and knew that God had sworn to him with an oath to seat one of his descendants on his throne,

So then, those who had received his word were baptized; and that day there were added about three thousand souls.

And all those who had believed were together and had all things in common;

And a man who had been lame from his mother’s womb was being carried along, whom they used to set down every day at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, in order to beg alms of those who were entering the temple.

and they were taking note of him as being the one who used to sit at the Beautiful Gate of the temple to beg alms, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

But when Peter saw this, he replied to the people, “Men of Israel, why are you amazed at this, or why do you gaze at us, as if by our own power or piety we had made him walk?

The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His servant Jesus, the one whom you delivered and disowned in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release Him.

But many of those who had heard the message believed; and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.

When they had placed them in the center, they began to inquire, “By what power, or in what name, have you done this?”

And seeing the man who had been healed standing with them, they had nothing to say in reply.

But when they had ordered them to leave the Council, they began to confer with one another,

And when they had summoned them, they commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.

When they had threatened them further, they let them go (finding no basis on which to punish them) on account of the people, because they were all glorifying God for what had happened;

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

When they had been released, they went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them.

And when they had prayed, the place where they had gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God with boldness.

and lay them at the apostles’ feet, and they would be distributed to each as any had need.
