But Jesus, [because he] knew within himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, said to them, "Does this cause you to be offended?

But there are some among you who don't believe..." - because Jesus knew from the beginning those who weren't believing, as well as the one who would betray him.

And he said, "Because of this I said to you that no one can come to me unless it has been granted to him by the Father."

Because of what he said, a number of the disciples went back and would no longer go with him.

(Now he was speaking about Judas [son] of Simon Iscariot, because this one--one of the twelve--was going to betray him.)

And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

Because no man does things secretly if he has a desire that men may have knowledge of him. If you do these things, let yourself be seen by all men.

The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its works are evil.

Go ye up unto the feast: I go not up unto this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.

Yet no man spoke openly about him because of fear of the Jews.

But when it was already the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the Temple and began to teach. "I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

Then the Jews were astonished, saying, "How does this man {possess knowledge}, [because he] has not been taught?"

Jesus answered and said unto them, I did one work, and ye all marvel because thereof.

Because of this Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

If a man receiveth circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are ye wroth with me, because I made a man every whit whole on the sabbath?

I know him; because I am from him, and he sent me.

They sought therefore to take him: and no man laid his hand on him, because his hour was not yet come.

But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believed on him were to receive: for the Spirit was not yet given ; because Jesus was not yet glorified.

So there arose a division in the multitude because of him.

And when his words came to their ears, they went out one by one, starting with the oldest even to the last, because they were conscious of what was in their hearts: and Jesus was there by himself with the woman before him.

Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I testify concerning myself, my testimony is true, because I know where I have come from and where I am going. But you do not know where I have come from or where I am going.

But even if I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.

These words spake he in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man took him; because his hour was not yet come.

Then the Jews began to say, "Perhaps he will kill himself, because he is saying, 'Where I am going you cannot come.'"

The One who sent Me is with Me. He has not left Me alone, because I always do what pleases Him.”

I know that ye are Abraham's seed: yet ye seek to kill me, because my word hath not free course in you.

Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, because I came from God and I am here. For I didn’t come on My own, but He sent Me.

Why do ye not understand my speech? Even because ye cannot hear my word.

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and standeth 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 thereof.

But because I say the truth, ye believe me not.

He that is of God heareth the words of God: for this cause ye hear them not, because ye are not of God.

And his disciples put a question to him, saying, Master, was it because of this man's sin, or the sin of his father and mother, that he has been blind from birth?

Jesus said in answer, It was not because of his sin, or because of his father's or mother's; it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.

Then the neighbors and those who saw him previously (because he was a beggar) began to say, "Is this man not the one who used to sit and beg?"

Some therefore of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. But others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such signs? And there was division among them.

So they said to the blind man again, "What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?" And he said, "He is a prophet."

These things said his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

Because of this his parents said, "{He is a mature adult}; ask him.")

Jesus replied, "If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin, but now because you claim that you can see, your guilt remains."

when he lets out his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him: because they know his voice.

They will never follow a stranger; instead they will run away from him, because they don’t recognize the voice of strangers.”

The hireling, even because he is no shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, vieweth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, - and, the wolf, seizeth them and scattereth, -

he fleeth because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

therefore doth my father love me, because I lay down my life, but I shall reassume it.

There arose a division again among the Jews because of these words.

but, as I said before, you do not believe; because ye are not of my sheep.

Jesus answered them, I have shown you many good works from my Father. Because of them, which work do ye stone me?

The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

If the Law said they were gods, to whom the word of God came ??and scripture cannot be broken ??36 do you mean to tell me, whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am God's Son'?

how can you say that I blaspheme, I whom the father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, because I said I am the son of God?

When this came to his ears, Jesus said, The end of this disease is not death, but the glory of God, so that the Son of God may have glory because of it.

Jesus answered, are there not twelve hours in the day? he that travels by day does not stumble, because he has the light of this world to see by.

but if a man travels by night he stumbles, because there is no light for him.

and I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there, because ye may believe. Nevertheless let us go unto him."

So the Jews who were with her in the house and were consoling her, [when they] saw Mary--that she stood up quickly and went out--followed her, [because they] thought that she was going to the tomb in order to weep there.

Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the one who had died, said to him, "Lord, he is stinking already, because it has been four days."

Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lift up his eyes and said, "father I thank thee, because that thou hast heard me;

I know that thou hearest me always: but I say this, because of the people here present, that they may believe that thou hast sent me."

Therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, What are we doing? Because this man does many signs.

Now he did not say this on his own authority, but because he was high priest that year he uttered this prophecy from God, that Jesus was to die for the nation,

this he said, not out of any concern for the poor; but because being purse-bearer he used to pilfer what was in bank.

because you will always have the destitute with you, but you won't always have me."

Then a large crowd of the Jews learned He was there. They came not only because of Jesus, but also to see Lazarus the one He had raised from the dead.

because he was the occasion that many of the Jews left them, and believed on Jesus.

Now his disciples did not understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these were things written because of him, and they did these things to him.

The crowd therefore that was with him bore witness because he had called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from among the dead.

This is also why the crowd met Him, because they heard He had done this sign.

Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But because of this I came to this hour.

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

This is why they were unable to believe, because Isaiah also said:

These things said Isaiah, because he saw his glory; and he spake of him.

Nevertheless even of the rulers many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it , lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

If anyone hears my words and doesn't keep them, I don't condemn him, because I didn't come to condemn the world, but to save it.

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

[because he] knew that the Father had given him all [things] into [his] hands, and that he had come forth from God and was going away to God,

(For he knew the one who would betray him; because of this he said, "Not all [of you] are clean.")

You call me 'Teacher,' and 'Lord,' and you are right in doing so because that is who I am.

For some thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus said unto him, Buy what things we have need of for the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

In my Father's house there are many dwelling places; but if not, I would have told you, because I am going away to prepare a place for you.

Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me. Otherwise, believe because of the works themselves.

I assure you, he that believeth on me, shall likewise perform the works that I do; nay, greater works than these shall he do; because for that end am I going to my father.

And because, whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, the same, will I do, that, the Father, may be glorified, in the Son:

even the spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees nor knows him: but ye shall know him, for he shall dwell with you, and shall be in you.

yet a little while, and the world shall see me no more: but ye shall see me: because I shall live again, and ye shall live also.

ye heard that I said to you -- I go away, and I come unto you; if ye did love me, ye would have rejoiced that I said -- I go on to the Father, because my Father is greater than I.

I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world is coming. He has no power over Me.

already ye are clean, because of the word that I have spoken to you;

'I am the vine, ye the branches; he who is remaining in me, and I in him, this one doth bear much fruit, because apart from me ye are not able to do anything;

no more do I call you servants, because the servant hath not known what his lord doth, and you I have called friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I did make known to you.

if of the world ye were, the world its own would have been loving, and because of the world ye are not -- but I chose out of the world -- because of this the world hateth you.

but all these things will they do to you, because of my name, because they have not known Him who sent me;

and ye also do testify, because from the beginning ye are with me.

These things have I said unto you because ye should not be offended.

and these things they will do to you, because they did not know the Father, nor me.

But these things I have spoken to you, that when the hour may come, ye may remember them, that I said them to you, and these things to you from the beginning I did not say, because I was with you;

But now I am going away to Him that sent me, and yet none of you asketh me, Whither art thou going? but because I have said these things to you,

but because these things I have said to you, the sorrow hath filled your heart.

Nevertheless, I am telling you the truth. It is for your benefit that I go away, because if I don’t go away the Counselor will not come to you. If I go, I will send Him to you.

concerning sin indeed, because they do not believe in me;

and concerning righteousness, because unto my Father I go away, and no more do ye behold me;
