"Yet there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was who should betray him.

The Jews meanwhile kept looking for him at feast, and saying, "Where is he?" "I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own Name these whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are one.

No one, however, was speaking openly about him, for fear of the Jews. "But now I am coming to thee, and I am speaking these things while I am in the world, so that they may have my joy in all its fulness in themselves.

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.

The Jews were amazed. They said, "How does this fellow know the sacred writings when he has never learned them?" "I am not asking that thou wilt take them out of the world, but that thou wilt protect them from the Evil One.

In reply Jesus said to them; "My teaching is not mine, but is his who sent me. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world."

Then some of the men of Jerusalem were saying. "Is not this the man they are seeking to kill?

"And look! he is speaking boldly and they are saying nothing to him. Can it possibly be that the rulers have really discovered that he is the Christ?

Then they kept seeking to arrest him, but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

and they asked them, "Why have you not brought him?"

"As for this mob who do not understand the Law, they are accursed!"

In answer they said to him. "You are not from Galilee, are you? Search for yourself, and see that from Galilee arises no prophet."

Then they departed each to his own house.

when the Scribes and Pharisees had brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They made her stand in the middle of the court, and said to him.

(This they said to tempt him, so that they could bring a charge against him.)

But Jesus stooped down, and began to write on the ground with his finger. When they continued to question him, he raised himself and said to them, "Let the innocent man among you be the first to throw the stone at her."

When they heard that, they went out one by one, beginning with the eldest. And Jesus was left behind alone??nd the woman in the middle of the court.

Then Jesus raised himself up and said to her. "Woman, where are they? Has no man condemn you,"

"Where is your Father?" they asked him. "You have neither known me nor my Father," answered Jesus. "If you had known me, you would have known my father also."

"Who are you?" then they asked him. "What I am telling you from the beginning," Jesus answered.

They did not understand that he meant the Father,

"We are descendants of Abraham," they replied, "and have never been in slavery to any man. What do you mean by saying, 'You shall become free'?"

"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."

Then they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the Temple.

So they asked him, "How then were your eyes opened?"

"Where is he?" they asked. "I do not know," answered the man.

Then they brought the man who had been blind to the Pharisees.

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.

The Jews, however, did not believe about him that he was blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man whose sight had been restored,

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

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.

"What was it he did to you?" they asked him; "How did he open your eyes?"

Then they stormed at him. "You are his disciple. We are Moses' disciples.

They answered, "You were wholly born in sins, and do you teach us?" Then they cast him out.

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

"When he has brought all his own sheep, he walks before them and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.

"But a stranger they will not follow, but flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers."

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

"The thief never comes except to steal and kill and destroy. I am come that they may have life, and may have it in abundance.

"I have other sheep also, which do not belong to this fold. I must bring them too, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.

"My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them and they follow me.

"I am giving them eternal life, and they shall never perish, nor shall any one snatch them out of my hand.

Then again they attempted to seize him, but he escaped out of their hands,

Now Jesus had been speaking concerning his death, but they thought that he was talking about natural sleep.

Then the Jews who were in the house trying to console her, when they saw that Mary rose quickly and went out, followed her, because they thought she was going to the tomb to weep there.

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

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."

"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."

So from that day they plotted to kill him.

So they kept looking for Jesus and saying to one another, as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think??hat he will not come to the feast at all?"

Now the chief priests and Pharisees had given orders that if any one knew where he was. he should give information, so that they might arrest him.

So they gave a dinner for him there, and Martha served it; but Lazarus was one of those who reclined with him at table.

When the great mass of the Jews learned that Jesus was there, they came not alone because of Jesus, but to see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus had been glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written concerning him, and what they had done to him.

For this reason, too, the crowd came to meet him, because they had heard about this sign which he had done.

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

With these words Jesus went away and hid himself from them. But although he had wrought such signs in their presence, still they did not believe in him.

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

He hath blinded their eyes and make their hearts hard, Lest they should see with their eyes, perceive with their minds, And should turn, and I should heal them.

Nevertheless, even among the rulers many believed on him, but did not confess in on account of the Pharisees, for fear lest they be put out of the Synagogue.

For they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God.

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

"Remember what I told you, 'A slave is not better than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you. If they have obeyed my word, they will obey yours also.

"But they will do all these things to you for my name's sake, because they know not Him who sent me.

"If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

"If I had not done among them such works as none ever did, they would have had no sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

"And so is fulfilled the word written in their Law, 'They hate me without cause.'

"They will excommunicate you from their synagogues; indeed the time is coming when any one who kills you will suppose that he is doing God's service.

"And they will do these things because they have not known my Father, nor me.

of sin, because they do not believe in me;

So they kept asking. "What does that 'little while' mean of which he speaks? We do not know what he is talking about."

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'?

"I have made known thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them to me, and they have kept thy word.

They know now that whatever thou hast given me was from thee;

for I have given them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

"I am praying for them; I am not praying for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine,

I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own Name these whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are one.

"But now I am coming to thee, and I am speaking these things while I am in the world, so that they may have my joy in all its fulness in themselves.

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.

They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

And for their sakes I dedicate myself, that they also may be thoroughly dedicated in the truth.

that they may all be one, even as thou, Father, art in me and I in thee; that they also may be in us; in order that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one even as we are one,

I in them and thou in me; that they may be made perfectly one, so that the world may recognize that thou didst send me, and hast loved them as thou hast loved me.

"Father, it is my will that wherever I am these also, thy gift to me, may be with me, that they may see the glory, my glory which thou hast given me, because thou didst love me before the foundations of the world.

"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;

so he asked them once more, "Whom are you looking for?" and they replied, "Jesus of Nazareth."

Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple who was known to the high priest, and they went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest's palace.

Now the slaves and the attendants were standing and warming themselves about a charcoal fire, which they had made because it was cold; and Peter also stood with them, and was warming himself.

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."

From the house of Caiaphas they took Jesus to the Praetorium, and it was dawn. They themselves would not enter the Praetorium, in order that they might not be ceremonially defiled, but might be able to eat the Passover.

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

Then they all shouted again. "No, not him! Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.

saying, "Hail! King of the Jews!" They also gave him blow after blow with their hands.

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."

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).

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!"
