In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

He was not that Light, but was sent to bear testimony of that Light.

That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

John testified concerning him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spoke, He that cometh after me, is preferred before me; for he was before me.

For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

This is he of whom I said, after me cometh a man who is preferred before me; for he was before me.

He saith to them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.

One of the two who heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

Nathanael saith to him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.

And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was; (but the servants who drew the water knew) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,

And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thy house hath eaten me up.

Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he performed.

And needed not that any should testify concerning man: for he knew what was in man.

There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

And John also was baptizing in Enon, near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.

For John was not yet cast into prison.

And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou didst bear testimony, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.

Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.

So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.

When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth.

So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth: and he himself believed, and his whole house.

After this there was a feast of the Jews: and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and agitated the water: whoever then first after the stirring of the water stepped in, was cured of whatever disease he had.

And a certain man was there, who had an infirmity thirty and eight years.

And immediately the man was healed, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

The Jews therefore said to him that was cured, it is the sabbath; it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.

And he that was healed knew not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.

The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him.

Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.

And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. (Now there was much grass in the place.) So the men sat down in number about five thousand.

And entered into a boat, and went over the sea towards Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them.

Then they willingly received him into the boat: and immediately the boat was at the land whither they were going.

The day following, when the people who stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, save that one into which his disciples had entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples had gone away alone;

When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.

What if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who he was that would betray him.

He spoke of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for it was he that was to betray him, being one of the twelve.

Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.

And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, No; but he deceiveth the people.

Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

(But this he spoke of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive, for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh from the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

So there was a division among the people because of him.

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

And they who heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even to the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, for his hour was not yet come.

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do: he was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.

Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am.

And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man who was blind from his birth.

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

And said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

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

He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus, made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.

They brought to the Pharisees him that before was blind.

And it was the sabbath when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

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:

These words his parents spoke, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man confessed that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

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.

He answered and said, Whether he is a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.

Since the world began hath it not been heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

They answered and said to him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? and they cast him out.

There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.

And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.

Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

(It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

When therefore he had heard that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless, let us go to him.

(Now Bethany was nigh to Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs distant.)

Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat in the house.

She saith to him, Yes, Lord, I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.

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

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

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

Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

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 they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me:

And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave-clothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith to them, Loose him, and let him go.

And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.

Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he was, he should show it, that they might take him.

Then Jesus, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.

There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

Then Mary took a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who was to betray him,

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.
