Then again he said them. "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I am going, you cannot come."

Then the Jews said: "He will not kill himself, will he? Is that why he says, 'Where I am going you cannot come'?"

And he said to them. "You are from below. I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world.

"That is why I said that you would die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

"Abraham is our father," they answered. "If you are indeed Abraham's children," said Jesus "do the deeds of Abraham.

"You are doing the deeds of your father." "We were not born of adultery," they said; "we have one Father, God."

Jesus said to them. "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I proceeded forth and am now come from God. I did not come on my own authority, but God himself sent me.

In reply the Jews said to him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan, and you also have a demon?"

"I do not have a demon," said Jesus, "but I am honoring my Father, and you are dishonoring me.

"If I glorify myself." said Jesus, "my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifies me, and you say, 'He is our God.'

"You are not yet fifty years old," said the Jews to him, "and you have seen Abraham?"

Then he said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (a word which means "sent"). So the man went and washed his eyes, and came back seeing.

Some said, "It is he." Others said, "No, but he looks like him." "I am the man," he said.

He answered. "The man who is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash'; so I went and washed and received my sight."

so the Pharisees again began to ask him questions about how he had regained his sight; and he said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and now I see."

Then some of the Pharisees began to say, "This man in not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?"

So there was a difference of opinion among them. Accordingly they said to the blind man, "What have you to say about him, now that he has opened your eyes?" "He is a prophet," he answered.

and questioned them. "Is this your son," they said, "who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"

Then in reply his parents said: "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

This his parents said because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if any one should confess that he was the Christ, he should be expelled from the synagogue.

It was because this that his parents said: "He is of age. Ask him, himself."

So the Jews a second time summoned the man who had been blind, and said to him.

"This is truly astonishing," said the man in reply, "that you do not know where he is from, and yet he has opened my eyes.

Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of man?"

"I do believe, Sir," said the man, and he prostrated himself at his feet. And Jesus said,

Jesus told them this parable, but they did not understand what he was talking about; so he said to them again.

The Jews again took stones with which to stone him. Jesus said to them.

"Is it written in your law," replied Jesus, "I said, You are gods?

do you mean to tell me, whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?

Many who came to him said, "John did not perform any signs, but everything he said about this man was true."

When Jesus heard it he said, "This illness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that through it the Son of God may be glorified."

he still remained where he was for two days; then after that he said to his disciples, "Let us go back again to Judea."

This he said, then told them, "Lazarus, our friend, has fallen asleep, but I am going to wake him."

Upon this Thomas, who was called "The Twin," said to his fellow disciples, "Let us go too, that we may die with him."

Then Martha said to Jesus. "Master, had you been here my brother would not have died;

Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

"I am the resurrection and the life," said Jesus. "He who believes in me, even if he has died, shall live.

"Where have you laid him?" he said: "Master, come and see," they answered.

"See how he loved him," said the Jews. But some of them said,

"Roll away the stone," said Jesus. "Master," said Martha, the sister of the dead man "he is offensive by this time, for he has been four days in the tomb."

Then they rolled the stone away; and Jesus lifted up his eyes and said:

"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."

When he had said this he cried with a great voice, "Lazarus, come forth!"

Out came the dead man, wrapped hand and foot with grave-clothes, and his face bound up in a napkin. Jesus said to them, "Untie him, and let him go."

"What are we going to do?" they said, "now that this man is performing many signs?" If we leave him alone, this way, every one will believe on him, and the Romans will come and rob us of both our sacred place and of our people."

But one of their number, Caiaphas by name, who was high priest that year, said to them,

Then said Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, who was about to betray him,

This he said not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and, carrying the purse,

used to purloin what was put in it. Then said Jesus. "Let her alone. Against the day of my burial has she kept this;

Then the Pharisees said among themselves. "You see! You can do nothing! Look! The world is gone after him!"

these came to Philip of Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. "Sir," they said, "we want to see Jesus."

Then the crowd who stood around and heard it, said, "It thundered!" But others said, "An angel has spoken to him."

This was why they could not believe, because Isaiah said again.

Now Jesus, speaking in a loud voice, had said:

Then he came to Simon Peter, who said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?"

Peter answered, "No, never shall you wash my feet." "If I do not wash you," said Jesus, "you have no part in me."

"Lord," said Simon Peter, "not my feet only, but also my hands and my head."

Jesus said: "He who has bathed needs only to have his feet washed, and he is altogether clean; and you are clean, but not all of you."

(For he knew who should betray him, for that reason he said that they were not every one of them clean.)

So after he had washed their feet, and had put on his upper garments again, and taken his place, he said to them.

When he had spoken thus, Jesus was deeply moved. He testified and said, "In solemn truth I tell you that one of you will betray me."

So that disciples just leaned back against Jesus' breast and said to him, "Lord, who is it?"

So when he had dipped the bread, he took it and gave it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon. And after he had received the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. "What you do, do quickly," said Jesus.

Now no one at the table understood why he said this to him,

So when he was gone, Jesus said: "Now has the Son of man been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.

"My little children, I am only to be with you a little longer. You will seek me; just as I said to the Jews, 'Where I go you cannot come,' so now I say to you.

"Why cannot I follow you now, Master?" said Peter. "I will lay down my life for you." Jesus answered him.

"We do not know where you are going Lord," said Thomas, "so how can we know the way?"

"Lord," said Philip, "cause us to see the Father, and we shall be satisfied."

"How is it, Lord," said Judas (not Iscariot) "that you will manifest yourself to us and not to the world?"

"You heard me tell you, 'I am going away, and yet I am coming to you.' If you loved me you would have been glad because I said 'I am going to the Father,' for my Father is greater than I.

Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said that he will take of what is mine and make it known to you.

At this some of his disciples said among themselves. "What does he mean by telling us, 'In a little while you shall behold me no more; and again in a little while you shall see me,' and 'because I am going to the Father'?"

Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and said: "Are you questioning one another about my saying, 'A little while and you shall behold me no more, and again a little while you shall see me'?

"Ah," said the disciples, "now you are speaking plain language, and not using figures.

"Do you now believe?" said Jesus;

I have said all this to you that in me you might have peace. In the world you will have tribulation, but be courageous; I have overcome the world."

When he had thus spoken, Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said: "Father, the hour is come. Glorify the Son, that thy Son may glorify thee;

"For Jesus of Nazareth," they answered. He said to them, "I am he." (Now Judas also, the betrayer, was standing with them.)

When Jesus said "I am he," they drew back and fell to the ground;

"I have already told you that I am he," said Jesus. "If, then, you are looking for me, let these go their way."

(The slave's name was Malchus.) Then Jesus said to Peter. "Put up your sword in its sheath. the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?"

The doorkeeper (a maid servant) then said to Peter, "Are not you also one of this man's disciples?" "No I am not," he answered.

"Why do you question me? Ask those who heard what I have said to them; these witnesses here know what I said."

Jesus replied "If I have said anything wrong, give evidence concerning the wrong; but if I said what was true, why do you strike me?"

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, "You are not also one of his disciples, are you not?" He denied it, saying "I am not."

One of the slaves of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did not I myself see you with him in the garden."

In reply they said, "If he had not been a criminal, we should not have handed him over you."

So Pilate went into the Praetorium again, and summoned Jesus. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he said.

"You are a king, then? You!" said Pilate. "You say truly that I am a king." answered Jesus, "for this purpose I was born, and to this end came I into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Every man who is of the truth listens to my voice."

Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" As he said this, he went outside again to the Jews and said to them.

Pilate again came forth and said to the people, "See, I am going to bring his out to you, that you may clearly know that I find no crime in him,"

Then as Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, "BEHOLD, THE MAN!"

So when the chief priests and the police saw him, they shouted. "Crucify him! Crucify him!" "Take him yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate, "for I find no crime in him."

and entering the Praetorium again, he said to Jesus, "What is your origin?"

Jesus made no answer. So Pilate said to him. "Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, or power to crucify you?"

On hearing what they said, Pilate brought Jesus out and made him sit on the judge's seat in a place called the Mosaic Pavement (the Hebrew name is Gabbatha).

And it was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

Then they shouted. "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!" "Crucify your King?" said Pilate. The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!"

So the high priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write 'King of the Jews,' but 'He said, I am King of the Jews.'"
