but -- that the word may be fulfilled that was written in their law -- They hated me without a cause.

out of the synagogues they will put you; but an hour doth come, that every one who hath killed you, may think to offer service unto God;

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

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

they said then, 'What is this he saith -- the little while? we have not known what he saith.'

Jesus, therefore, knew that they were wishing to ask him, and he said to them, 'Concerning this do ye seek one with another, because I said, A little while, and you do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me?

and this is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send -- Jesus Christ;

I did manifest Thy name to the men whom Thou hast given to me out of the world; Thine they were, and to me Thou hast given them, and Thy word they have kept;

now they have known that all things, as many as Thou hast given to me, are from Thee,

because the sayings that Thou hast given to me, I have given to them, and they themselves received, and have known truly, that from Thee I came forth, and they did believe that Thou didst send me.

'I ask in regard to them; not in regard to the world do I ask, but in regard to those whom Thou hast given to me, because Thine they are,

and no more am I in the world, and these are in the world, and I come unto Thee. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, whom Thou hast given to me, that they may be one as we;

'And now unto Thee I come, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves;

I have given to them Thy word, and the world did hate them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world;

'Of the world they are not, as I of the world am not;

and for them do I sanctify myself, that they also themselves may be sanctified in truth.

that they all may be one, as Thou Father art in me, and I in Thee; that they also in us may be one, that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.

'And I, the glory that thou hast given to me, have given to them, that they may be one as we are one;

I in them, and Thou in me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that Thou didst send me, and didst love them as Thou didst love me.

'Father, those whom Thou hast given to me, I will that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory that Thou didst give to me, because Thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.

they answered him, 'Jesus the Nazarene;' Jesus saith to them, 'I am he;' -- and Judas who delivered him up was standing with them; --

when, therefore, he said to them -- 'I am he,' they went away backward, and fell to the ground.

Again, therefore, he questioned them, 'Whom do ye seek?' and they said, 'Jesus the Nazarene;'

and they led him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was chief priest of that year,

and the servants and the officers were standing, having made a fire of coals, because it was cold, and they were warming themselves, and Peter was standing with them, and warming himself.

And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself, they said then to him, 'Art thou also of his disciples?' he denied, and said, 'I am not.'

They led, therefore, Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium, and it was early, and they themselves did not enter into the praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but that they might eat the passover;

they answered and said to him, 'If he were not an evil doer, we had not delivered him to thee.'

therefore they all cried out again, saying, 'Not this one -- but Barabbas;' and Barabbas was a robber.

and the soldiers having plaited a crown of thorns, did place it on his head, and a purple garment they put around him,

and said, 'Hail! the king of the Jews;' and they were giving him slaps.

When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, 'Crucify, crucify;' Pilate saith to them, 'Take ye him -- ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;'

and they cried out, 'Take away, take away, crucify him;' Pilate saith to them, 'Your king shall I crucify?' the chief priests answered, 'We have no king except Caesar.'

Then, therefore, he delivered him up to them, that he may be crucified, and they took Jesus and led him away,

where they crucified him, and with him two others, on this side, and on that side, and Jesus in the midst.

The soldiers, therefore, when they did crucify Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to each soldier a part, also the coat, and the coat was seamless, from the top woven throughout,

they said, therefore, to one another, 'We may not rend it, but cast a lot for it, whose it shall be;' that the Writing might be fulfilled, that is saying, 'They divided my garments to themselves, and upon my raiment they did cast a lot;' the soldiers, therefore, indeed, did these things.

a vessel, therefore, was placed full of vinegar, and they having filled a sponge with vinegar, and having put it around a hyssop stalk, did put it to his mouth;

The Jews, therefore, that the bodies might not remain on the cross on the sabbath, since it was the preparation, (for that sabbath day was a great one,) asked of Pilate that their legs may be broken, and they taken away.

The soldiers, therefore, came, and of the first indeed they did break the legs, and of the other who was crucified with him,

and having come to Jesus, when they saw him already having been dead, they did not break his legs;

and again another Writing saith, 'They shall look to him whom they did pierce.'

They took, therefore, the body of Jesus, and bound it with linen clothes with the spices, according as it was the custom of the Jews to prepare for burial;

there, therefore, because of the preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was nigh, they laid Jesus.

she runneth, therefore, and cometh unto Simon Peter, and unto the other disciple whom Jesus was loving, and saith to them, 'They took away the Lord out of the tomb, and we have not known where they laid him.'

Peter, therefore, went forth, and the other disciple, and they were coming to the tomb,

for not yet did they know the Writing, that it behoveth him out of the dead to rise again.

And they say to her, 'Woman, why dost thou weep?' she saith to them, 'Because they took away my Lord, and I have not known where they laid him;'

if of any ye may loose the sins, they are loosed to them; if of any ye may retain, they have been retained.'

Simon Peter saith to them, 'I go away to fish;' they say to him, 'We go -- we also -- with thee;' they went forth and entered into the boat immediately, and on that night they caught nothing.

they answered him, 'No;' and he said to them, 'Cast the net at the right side of the boat, and ye shall find;' they cast, therefore, and no longer were they able to draw it, from the multitude of the fishes.

and the other disciples came by the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but as it were about two hundred cubits off, dragging the net of the fishes;

when, therefore, they came to the land, they behold a fire of coals lying, and a fish lying on it, and bread.

Simon Peter went up, and drew the net up on the land, full of great fishes, an hundred fifty and three, and though they were so many, the net was not rent.

When, therefore, they dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, 'Simon, son of Jonas, dost thou love me more than these?' he saith to him, 'Yes, Lord; thou hast known that I dearly love thee;' he saith to him, 'Feed my lambs.'

And there are also many other things -- as many as Jesus did -- which, if they may be written one by one, not even the world itself I think to have place for the books written. Amen.

They, therefore, indeed, having come together, were questioning him, saying, 'Lord, dost thou at this time restore the reign to Israel?'

And these things having said -- they beholding -- he was taken up, and a cloud did receive him up from their sight;

and as they were looking stedfastly to the heaven in his going on, then, lo, two men stood by them in white apparel,

Then did they return to Jerusalem from the mount that is called of Olives, that is near Jerusalem, a sabbath's journey;

and when they came in, they went up to the upper room, where were abiding both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James, of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zelotes, and Judas, of James;

And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias,

and having prayed, they said, 'Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two

and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

And in the day of the Pentecost being fulfilled, they were all with one accord at the same place,

and there came suddenly out of the heaven a sound as of a bearing violent breath, and it filled all the house where they were sitting,

and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, according as the Spirit was giving them to declare.

and the rumour of this having come, the multitude came together, and was confounded, because they were each one hearing them speaking in his proper dialect,

and they were all amazed, and did wonder, saying one unto another, 'Lo, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?

And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one unto another, 'What would this wish to be?'

and others mocking said, -- 'They are full of sweet wine;'

and also upon My men-servants, and upon My maid-servants, in those days, I will pour out of My Spirit, and they shall prophesy;

And having heard, they were pricked to the heart; they say also to Peter, and to the rest of the apostles, 'What shall we do, men, brethren?'

and they were continuing stedfastly in the teaching of the apostles, and the fellowship, and the breaking of the bread, and the prayers.

and the possessions and the goods they were selling, and were parting them to all, according as any one had need.

Daily also continuing with one accord in the temple, breaking also at every house bread, they were partaking of food in gladness and simplicity of heart,

and a certain man, being lame from the womb of his mother, was being carried, whom they were laying every day at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask a kindness from those entering into the temple,

they were knowing him also that this it was who for a kindness was sitting at the Beautiful gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what hath happened to him.

And as they are speaking unto the people, there came to them the priests, and the magistrate of the temple, and the Sadducees --

and they laid hands upon them, and did put them in custody unto the morrow, for it was evening already;

and having set them in the midst, they were inquiring, 'In what power, or in what name did ye do this?'

And beholding the openness of Peter and John, and having perceived that they are men unlettered and plebeian, they were wondering -- they were taking knowledge also of them that with Jesus they had been --

and seeing the man standing with them who hath been healed, they had nothing to say against it,

and having commanded them to go away out of the sanhedrim, they took counsel with one another,

And having called them, they charged them not to speak at all, nor to teach, in the name of Jesus,

And they having further threatened them, let them go, finding nothing how they may punish them, because of the people, because all were glorifying God for that which hath been done,

And being let go, they went unto their own friends, and declared whatever the chief priests and the elders said unto them,

and they having heard, with one accord did lift up the voice unto God, and said, 'Lord, thou art God, who didst make the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all that are in them,

And they having prayed, the place was shaken in which they were gathered together, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and were speaking the word of God with freedom,

and having risen, the younger men wound him up, and having carried forth, they buried him.

And Peter said unto her, 'How was it agreed by you, to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? lo, the feet of those who did bury thy husband are at the door, and they shall carry thee forth;'

and she fell down presently at his feet, and expired, and the young men having come in, found her dead, and having carried forth, they buried her by her husband;

And through the hands of the apostles came many signs and wonders among the people, and they were with one accord all in the porch of Solomon;

and having heard, they did enter at the dawn into the temple, and were teaching. And the chief priest having come, and those with him, they called together the sanhedrim and all the senate of the sons of Israel, and they sent to the prison to have them brought,

and the officers having come, did not find them in the prison, and having turned back, they told,

And as the priest, and the magistrate of the temple, and the chief priests, heard these words, they were doubting concerning them to what this would come;

then the magistrate having gone away with officers, brought them without violence, for they were fearing the people, lest they should be stoned;

and having brought them, they set them in the sanhedrim, and the chief priest questioned them,

And they having heard, were cut to the heart, and were taking counsel to slay them,

And to him they agreed, and having called near the apostles, having beaten them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go;
