But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.

Therefore Jesus said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I have not come of myself, but he sent me.

But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.

Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.

But I do not seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.

You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, 'I do not know him,' I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.

Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Jesus was hidden, and went out of the temple.

Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but, that the works of God might be revealed in him.

but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself."

They insulted him and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we do not know where he comes from."

We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him.

Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but since you say, 'We see,' your sin remains.

"Truly, truly, I tell you, one who does not enter by the door into the sheep fold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

But one who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

They will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him; for they do not know the voice of strangers."

Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they did not understand what he was telling them.

All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.

No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father."

But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.

The Jewish leaders answered him, "We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy: because you, being a man, make yourself God."

But if I do them, though you do not believe me, believe the works; that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father."

Many came to him. They said, "John indeed did no sign, but everything that John said about this man is true."

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

But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."

He said these things, and after that, he said to them, "Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep."

Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.

Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.

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

But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?"

I know that you always listen to me, but because of the crowd that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me."

But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus had done.

But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,

Now he did not say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,

and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.

Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Judeans, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim; and stayed there with his disciples.

So they prepared a dinner for him there; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.

Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.

But Jesus said, "Leave her alone, that she may keep this for the day of my burial.

For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me."

A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learned 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.

But the chief priests plotted to kill Lazarus also,

His disciples did not understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.

Truly, truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.

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

Jesus answered, "This voice hasn't come for my sake, but for your sakes.

But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.

But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they did not believe in him,

Nevertheless even of the rulers many believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue,

Then Jesus shouted out and said, "Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.

And if anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

Jesus answered him, "You do not know what I am doing now, but you will understand later."

Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head."

Jesus said to him, "Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you."

I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen. But that the Scripture may be fulfilled, 'He who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.'

Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus answered, "Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow afterwards."

Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.

Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.

He who does not love me does not keep my words. The word which you hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.

But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father I have made known to you.

You did not choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

But all these things will they do to you because of my name, because they do not know him who sent me.

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had 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 had sin. But now have they seen and also hated both me and my Father.

But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.'

They will put you out of the synagogues, but an hour is coming when whoever kills you will think that he is offering a service to God.

But I have told you these things, so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.

But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, 'Where are you going?'

But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.

Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Counselor won't come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

"I have yet many things to tell you, but you cannot bear them now.

However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak on his own; but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you things that are coming.

Truly, truly, I tell you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

A woman, when she gives birth, has pain, because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she does not remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.

Therefore you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.

I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the hour is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.

Look, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. But I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up. I have overcome the world."

I pray for them. I do not pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.

I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.

But now I come to you, and I say these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.

I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one.

Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me through their word,

Righteous Father, the world hasn't known you, but I knew you; and these knew that you sent me.

but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought in Peter.

Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?"

They led Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early, and they themselves did not enter into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.

Jesus answered, "My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I would not be delivered to the Jewish leaders. But now my Kingdom is not from here."

But you have a custom, that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Therefore do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?"

Then they shouted again, saying, "Not this man, but Barabbas." Now Barabbas was a robber.

He entered into the Praetorium again, and said to Jesus, "Where are you from?" But Jesus gave him no answer.

At this, Pilate was seeking to release him, but the Jewish leaders shouted, saying, "If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar."

When Pilate therefore heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called "The Pavement," but in Hebrew, "Gabbatha."

They shouted, "Away with him. Away with him. Crucify him." Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."

The chief priests of the Jewish people therefore said to Pilate, "Do not write, 'The King of the Jews,' but, 'he said, I am King of the Jews.'"

Then they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to decide whose it will be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which says, "They parted my garments among them. For my cloak they cast lots." Therefore the soldiers did these things.
