But this people who know not the law are cursed.

They say to him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham.

And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

The neighbors therefore, and they who before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not from God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

Then again they called the man that was blind, and said to him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

We know that God spoke to Moses: as for this man, we know not whence he is.

If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.

And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they who see not, may see; and that they who see, may be made blind.

This parable spoke Jesus to them: but they understood not what things they were which he spoke to them.

And other sheep I have which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received from my Father.

And many resorted to him, and said, John performed no miracle; but all things that John spoke of this man were true.

When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified by it.

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walketh in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

And whoever liveth, and believeth in me, shall never die. Believest thou this?

And some of them said, Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him, Lord, by this time his body is offensive: for he hath been dead four days.

Then the chief priests and the Pharisees convened a council, and said, What do we? for this man performeth many miracles.

And this he spoke not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;

Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?

This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bore what was put in it.

Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burial hath she kept this.

For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.

He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, shall keep it to life eternal.

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

Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

(This he said, signifying what death he should die.)

The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spoke this to him.

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

In this is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

Then said some of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?

They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.

Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest from God.

And this is life eternal, that they may know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.

Then saith the damsel that kept the door to Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.

Pilate then went out to them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?

Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing from thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?

Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

Pilate therefore said to him, Art thou a King then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a King. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should testify to the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

Pilate saith to him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and saith to them, I find in him no fault.

Then they all cried again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Cesar's friend. Whoever maketh himself a king, speaketh against Cesar.

Many of the Jews then read this title: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.

After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

And after this, Joseph of Arimathea (being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews) besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore and took the body of Jesus.

And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith to them, Receive ye the Holy Spirit.

And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book.

After these things Jesus showed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias: and in this manner did he show himself.

This is now the third time that Jesus showed himself to his disciples, after he had risen from the dead.

This he spoke, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith to him, Follow me.

Peter seeing him, saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?

Then this saying went abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not to him, He shall not die; but, if I will that he shall tarry till I come, what is that to thee?

This is the disciple who testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.

When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

Who also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up to heaven? this same Jesus who is taken from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

Men, brethren, This scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who was guide to them that took Jesus.

For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.

Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every man heard them speak in his own language.

And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?

But Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Ye men of Judea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words:

But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel,

Men, brethren, let me freely speak to you concerning the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher is with us to this day.

He seeing this before, spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither did his flesh see corruption.

This Jesus hath God raised up, of which we all are witnesses.

Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said to Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men, brethren, what shall we do?

And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.

And when Peter saw it, he answered to the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?

And his name, through faith in his name, hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yes, the faith which is by him, hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name have ye done this?

If we this day are examined concerning the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made sound.

Be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you sound.

This is the stone which was set at naught by you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

But that it may spread no further among the people, let us strictly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.

For the man was above forty years old on whom this miracle of healing was performed.

While it remained, was it not thy own? and after it was sold, was it not in thy own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? thou hast not lied to men, but to God.

Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.

Now when the high priest, and the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them to what this would grow.

Saying, Did we not strictly command you, that ye should not teach in this name? and behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.

After this man rose Judas of Galilee, in the days of the taxing, and drew away many people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.

And now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work is from men, it will come to naught:

Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
