and they were telling the things in the way, and how he was made known to them in the breaking of the bread,

and as they are speaking these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith to them, 'Peace -- to you;'

and being amazed, and becoming affrighted, they were thinking themselves to see a spirit.

And he said to them, 'Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do reasonings come up in your hearts?

and while they are not believing from the joy, and wondering, he said to them, 'Have ye anything here to eat?'

and he said to them, 'These are the words that I spake unto you, being yet with you, that it behoveth to be fulfilled all the things that are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, about me.'

and ye -- ye are witnesses of these things.

and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

who -- not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but -- of God were begotten.

And those sent were of the Pharisees,

These things came to pass in Bethabara, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing,

And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, saith to them, 'What seek ye?' and they said to them, 'Rabbi, (which is, being interpreted, Teacher,) where remainest thou?'

He saith to them, 'Come and see;' they came, and saw where he doth remain, and with him they remained that day and the hour was about the tenth.

And there were there six water-jugs of stone, placed according to the purifying of the Jews, holding each two or three measures.

the Spirit where he willeth doth blow, and his voice thou dost hear, but thou hast not known whence he cometh, and whither he goeth; thus is every one who hath been born of the Spirit.'

Nicodemus answered and said to him, 'How are these things able to happen?'

Verily, verily, I say to thee -- What we have known we speak, and what we have seen we testify, and our testimony ye do not receive;

'And this is the judgment, that the light hath come to the world, and men did love the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil;

but he who is doing the truth doth come to the light, that his works may be manifested, that in God they are having been wrought.'

and John was also baptizing in Aenon, nigh to Salem, because there were many waters there, and they were coming and were being baptized --

and they came unto John, and said to him, 'Rabbi, he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou didst testify, lo, this one is baptizing, and all are coming unto him.'

and there was there a well of Jacob. Jesus therefore having been weary from the journeying, was sitting thus on the well; it was as it were the sixth hour;

for his disciples were gone away to the city, that they may buy victuals;

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who did give us the well, and himself out of it did drink, and his sons, and his cattle?'

our fathers in this mountain did worship, and ye -- ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where it behoveth to worship.'

And upon this came his disciples, and were wondering that with a woman he was speaking, no one, however, said, 'What seekest thou?' or 'Why speakest thou with her?'

They went forth therefore out of the city, and were coming unto him.

And in the meanwhile his disciples were asking him, saying, 'Rabbi, eat;'

do not say that it is yet four months, and the harvest cometh; lo, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and see the fields, that they are white unto harvest already.

When, then, the Samaritans came unto him, they were asking him to remain with them, and he remained there two days;

Jesus came, therefore, again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine, and there was a certain courtier, whose son was ailing in Capernaum,

in these were lying a great multitude of the ailing, blind, lame, withered, waiting for the moving of the water,

and because of this were the Jews persecuting Jesus, and seeking to kill him, because these things he was doing on a sabbath.

because of this, then, were the Jews seeking the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the sabbath, but he also called God his own Father, making himself equal to God.

'Ye search the Writings, because ye think in them to have life age-during, and these are they that are testifying concerning me;

how are ye able -- ye -- to believe, glory from one another receiving, and the glory that is from God alone ye seek not?

for if ye were believing Moses, ye would have been believing me, for he wrote concerning me;

and there was following him a great multitude, because they were seeing his signs that he was doing on the ailing;

Philip answered him, 'Two hundred denaries' worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;'

There is one little lad here who hath five barley loaves, and two fishes, but these -- what are they to so many?'

And Jesus said, 'Make the men to sit down;' and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,

And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, 'Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;'

they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.

Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.

and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come unto them,

having pushed onwards, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming nigh to the boat, and they were afraid;

they were willing then to receive him into the boat, and immediately the boat came unto the land to which they were going.

(and other little boats came from Tiberias, nigh the place where they did eat the bread, the Lord having given thanks),

Jesus answered them and said, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were satisfied;

our fathers the manna did eat in the wilderness, according as it is having been written, Bread out of the heaven He gave them to eat.'

The Jews, therefore, were murmuring at him, because he said, 'I am the bread that came down out of the heaven;'

your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died;

The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, 'How is this one able to give us his flesh to eat?'

this is the bread that came down out of the heaven; not as your fathers did eat the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread shall live -- to the age.'

And Jesus having known in himself that his disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, 'Doth this stumble you?

if then ye may behold the Son of Man going up where he was before?

the spirit it is that is giving life; the flesh doth not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;

but there are certain of you who do not believe;' for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver him up,

From this time many of his disciples went away backward, and were no more walking with him,

And Jesus was walking after these things in Galilee, for he did not wish to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him,

for not even were his brethren believing in him.

Jesus, therefore, saith to them, 'My time is not yet present, but your time is always ready;

the world is not able to hate you, but me it doth hate, because I testify concerning it that its works are evil.

the Jews, therefore, were seeking him, in the feast, and said, 'Where is that one?'

and the Jews were wondering, saying, 'How hath this one known letters -- not having learned?'

if any one may will to do His will, he shall know concerning the teaching, whether it is of God, or -- I do speak from myself.

if a man doth receive circumcision on a sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye wroth with me that I made a man all whole on a sabbath?

Certain, therefore, of the Jerusalemites said, 'Is not this he whom they are seeking to kill?

They were seeking, therefore, to seize him, and no one laid the hand on him, because his hour had not yet come,

ye will seek me, and ye shall not find; and where I am, ye are not able to come.'

what is this word that he said, Ye will seek me, and ye shall not find? and, Where I am, ye are not able to come?'

and this he said of the Spirit, which those believing in him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Did not the Writing say, that out of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem -- the village where David was -- the Christ doth come?'

And certain of them were willing to seize him, but no one laid hands on him;

did any one out of the rulers believe in him? or out of the Pharisees?

'Doth our law judge the man, if it may not hear from him first, and know what he doth?'

and all the people were coming unto him, and having sat down, he was teaching them;

and they having heard, and by the conscience being convicted, were going forth one by one, having begun from the elders -- unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

And Jesus having bent himself back, and having seen no one but the woman, said to her, 'Woman, where are those -- thine accusers? did no one pass sentence upon thee?'

Jesus answered and said to them, 'And if I testify of myself -- my testimony is true, because I have known whence I came, and whither I go, and ye -- ye have not known whence I come, or whither I go.

and also in your law it hath been written, that the testimony of two men are true;

They said, therefore, to him, 'Where is thy father?' Jesus answered, 'Ye have neither known me nor my Father: if me ye had known, my Father also ye had known.'

therefore said Jesus again to them, 'I go away, and ye will seek me, and in your sin ye shall die; whither I go away, ye are not able to come.'

The Jews, therefore, said, 'Will he kill himself, because he saith, Whither I go away, ye are not able to come?'

and he said to them, 'Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world;

I said, therefore, to you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye may not believe that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.'

Jesus, therefore, said unto the Jews who believed in him, 'If ye may remain in my word, truly my disciples ye are, and ye shall know the truth,

They answered him, 'Seed of Abraham we are; and to no one have we been servants at any time; how dost thou say -- Ye shall become free?'

'I have known that ye are seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you;

I -- that which I have seen with my Father do speak, and ye, therefore, that which ye have seen with your father -- ye do.'

They answered and said to him, 'Our father is Abraham;' Jesus saith to them, 'If children of Abraham ye were, the works of Abraham ye were doing;

ye do the works of your father.' They said, therefore, to him, 'We of whoredom have not been born; one Father we have -- God;'

Jesus then said to them, 'If God were your father, ye were loving me, for I came forth from God, and am come; for neither have I come of myself, but He sent me;

wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.

Ye are of a father -- the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar -- also his father.

he who is of God, the sayings of God he doth hear; because of this ye do not hear, because of God ye are not.'

Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died; whom dost thou make thyself?'

Jesus answered, 'If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who is glorifying me, of whom ye say that He is your God;

Abraham, your father, was glad that he might see my day; and he saw, and did rejoice.'

and his disciples asked him, saying, 'Rabbi, who did sin, this one or his parents, that he should be born blind?'
