But now ye go about to kill me, a man that have told you the truth, which I have heard of God: This did not Abraham.

Which of you convicts me about sin? And if I speak truth, why do ye not believe me?

Jesus replied, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. The one who glorifies me is my Father, [about] whom you say, 'He is our God.'

“Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” Jesus answered. “This came about so that God’s works might be displayed in him.

So the Pharisees put more questions to him about how his eyes had been made open. And he said to them, He put earth on my eyes, and I had a wash and am able to see.

Accordingly they said to the blind man again, “What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?” And he said, “[It must be that] He is a prophet!”

The Jews did not believe this about him—that he was blind and received sight—until they summoned the parents of the one who had received his sight.

But how it is that he can see now we do not know; nor do we know who it was that gave him his sight. Ask him--he is old enough- -he will tell you about himself."

He said in answer, I have no knowledge if he is a sinner or not, but one thing I am certain about; I was blind, and now I see.

We know [for certain] that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this Man, we do not know where He is from.”

The man answered, "There is something very strange about this! You do not know where he came from, and yet he has made me able to see!

Jesus used this figure of speech with them, but they did not understand what He was talking about.

Now he who serves for wages flees because he serves for wages, and is not himself concerned about the sheep.

just like the Father knows me [intimately] and I know the Father [that way]. And I [am about to] give up my life for the sheep.

The Father loves me because I [am about to] give up my life, so that I can take it back again.

And Jesus was walking about the temple, in Solomon's portico.

Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.

Jesus answered them, "I told you and you do not believe! The deeds that I do in the name of my Father, these testify about me.

The Jews answered Him, "We are not stoning you for a good deed, but for your abusive speech [i.e., about God], and because you are claiming to be God, even though you are [only] a man."

do you say about [he] whom the Father set apart and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?

Again they went about to take him, but he escaped out of their hands,

and many came unto him, and said -- 'John, indeed, did no sign, and all things, as many as John said about this one were true;'

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

Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours [of light] in the day? Anyone who walks in the daytime does not stumble, because he sees [by] the light of this world.

But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because there is no light in him.”

but Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that about the repose of sleep he speaketh.

Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:

Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother.

& 31] Now as Bethany is not far from Jerusalem, only about two miles away,

Jesus wept.

"Father, I thank thee that thou hast listened to me. And I knew that thou art ever listening to me, but for the sake of the crowd who are standing about, I said it, in order that they may believe that thou hast sent me."

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

So it came about that many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary and saw what Jesus did, came to believe in him,

Then the high priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the council, and they said, "What are we to do about the fact that this man is showing so many signs?

But one of them, named Caiaphas, being High Priest that year, said, "You know nothing about it.

"You know nothing about it. You do not realize that it is to your interest that one man should die for the people, instead of the whole nation being destroyed."

And this he said not of himself, but being chief priest of that year, he did prophesy that Jesus was about to die for the nation,

Therefore Jesus no longer went about openly among the Jews, but He left that neighbourhood and went into the district near the Desert, to a town called Ephraim, and remained there with the disciples.

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?”

Then Mary took about a pint of expensive, aromatic perfume; [it was] genuine nard [Note: This was a sweet-smelling herb] and poured [some of] it on Jesus' feet and wiped them with her hair. The [whole] house was filled with the fragrant scent of the perfume.

One of his disciples therefore, Judas son of Simon, Iscariote, who was about to deliver him up, says,

(Now he said this not because {he was concerned} about the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, he used to steal what was put into [it].)

And these things his disciples did not know at the first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were having been written about him, and these things they did to him.

The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, was testifying about it.

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].

But this he said signifying by what death he was about to die.

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].

Isaiah said these [things] because he saw his glory, and he spoke about him.

Jesus, who knew that the Father had given Him complete authority, [also] knew that He had come from God and was [about] to return to God.

rose from the table, took off his outer clothing, and fastened a towel about his waist.

Then he poured water into the basin and began to wash the disciples' feet, wiping them with the towel that was about his waist.

Jesus answered him, you don't at present comprehend what I am about: but hereafter you shall.

For he knew who was about to betray him; for this reason he said, Ye are not all clean.

And when He had washed their feet, and taken his clothes about Him, He sat down again, and said to them, Do ye know the intent of what I have been doing to you?

"I am not speaking about all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but in order that the scripture would be fulfilled, 'The one who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.'

From this time forward, I give you knowledge of things before they come about, so that when they come about you may have belief that I am he.

The disciples began looking at one another, uncertain about whom he was speaking.

So Simon Peter gestured for this one to inquire who it was about whom he was speaking.

Then, after Judas had received the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. "Lose no time about it," said Jesus to him.

Judas saith to him, (not the Iscariot), 'Sir, what hath come to pass, that to us thou are about to manifest thyself, and not to the world?'

You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.

This comes about so that the writing in their law may be made true, Their hate for me was without cause.

"When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father--the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father--that one will testify about me.

And you will give testimony about me [also], because you men have been with me from the beginning [of my ministry]."

But I have said these [things] to you so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you about them.

And He, when He comes, will convict the world about [the guilt of] sin [and the need for a Savior], and about righteousness, and about judgment:

about sin [and the true nature of it], because they do not believe in Me [and My message];

about righteousness [personal integrity and godly character], because I am going to My Father and you will no longer see Me;

about judgment [the certainty of it], because the ruler of this world (Satan) has been judged and condemned.

However, when the Holy Spirit of truth comes, He will lead you [apostles] into all the truth. For He will not speak on His own authority, but will speak [only] what He hears [from the Father]. And He will tell you about the things that are to come.

So they were saying, “What does He mean when He says, ‘A little while’? We do not know what He is talking about.”

Jesus knew that they were wanting to ask him, and he said to them, "Are you deliberating with one another about this--that I said, 'A little [while], and you will not see me, and again a little [while] and you will see me'?

Truly, truly, I tell you, you will cry and mourn [i.e., over my suffering and death], but the world will be glad [about it]. You will be sad, but your sadness will turn to joy [i.e., when learning of my resurrection].

When a woman is about to give birth she has sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she has given birth to the child, the pain is put out of her mind by the joy that a man has come into the world.

In that day you will not question Me about anything. Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask the Father for anything in My name, He will give it to you.

“I have told you these things in figurative language (veiled language, proverbs); the hour is now coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech, but I will tell you plainly about the Father.

In that day ye will ask in my name, and I do not say to you, that I will pray the Father about you,

I pray about them. I do not pray about the world, but about whom thou have given me, because they are for thee.

And I pray not about these only, but also about those who believe in me through their word,

(Now Judas, the one who betrayed him, also knew about the place, because Jesus often gathered there with his disciples.)

Then Jesus, knowing all that was about to happen to Him, went to them and asked, “Whom do you want?”

As it was cold the slaves and attendants had made a charcoal fire, and stood about it warming themselves. And Peter also was among them, standing and warming himself.

Then the high priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and about His teaching.

Why are you questioning me? put questions to my hearers about what I have said to them: they have knowledge of what I said.

Jesus replied to him, "If I have spoken wrongly, testify about what [is] wrong! But if [I have spoken] correctly, why do you strike me?"

that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled which he said, signifying by what death he was about to die.

Jesus answered him, 'From thyself dost thou say this? or did others say it to thee about me?'

So, Pilate said to Him, "Are you a king, then?" Jesus answered, "You are [correct in] calling me a 'king.' This was the [very] purpose for which I was born and came into the world, that I should testify about the truth. Every person who wants [to know and obey] the truth listens to me."

"Truth!" said Pilate, "what is truth!" With these words he went outside to the Jews again and told them, "I cannot find anything wrong about him.

And, the soldiers, plaiting a crown out of thorns, placed it upon his head, and, a purple robe, cast they about him;

and threw a purple robe about Him, and said, "Hail king of the Jews," and struck Him with their hands.

Again Pilate went out and said to them, "Look, I am bringing him out to you. Understand, I cannot find anything wrong about him."

Now when the high priests and their attendants saw him, they yelled, "Crucify him, crucify him!" Pilate said, "Take him and crucify him yourselves! I find nothing wrong about him."

And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

A vessel, was standing, full of vinegar. A sponge, therefore, full of the vinegar, put about, hyssop, brought they unto his mouth.

And the person who saw this happen is giving a true testimony about it. He knows it is true [and is giving it] so that you will believe [it, also].

These things came about so that the Writings might be true, No bone of his body will be broken.

And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

Then they took the body of Jesus, folding linen about it with the spices, as is the way of the Jews when they put the dead to rest.

Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, And the napkin that was about his head,
