but now ye seek to kill me, the man who has told you the truth, such as I have learnt it of God: Abraham did not act thus.

You are doing the works of your father. They said to him, We are true sons of Abraham; we have one Father, who is God.

you, who have the devil for your father, will execute the designs of your father: he was a murderer from the beginning, and deserted the truth, since he has no love for the truth: when he lyes, he speaks like himself: for he is a lyar, and the father of a lyar.

Who among you can convict Me of sin? If I tell the truth, why don’t you believe Me?

The one who is from God listens to God’s words. This is why you don’t listen, because you are not from God.”

I do not seek My glory; the One who seeks it also judges.

The Jews therefore said unto Him, Now we are sure that thou art possessed by a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets too; and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he shall never taste of death: art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead?

Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died: whom makest thou thyself?

Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God;

As He passed along, He saw a man who had been blind from his birth.

And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?

We must do the works of Him who sent Me while it is day. Night is coming when no one can work.

and said, "Go and wash them in the pool of Siloam" (which means One who has been sent). So he went and washed them and went home seeing.

the neighbours therefore, and they who before had seen him begging, said, is not this he that used to sit begging?

He replied, "The man who is called Jesus made clay and smeared [it] on my eyes and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash!' So I went, and I washed, [and] I received sight."

They brought the man who used to be blind to the Pharisees.

So some of the Pharisees were saying, "This man is not from God, because he does not observe the Sabbath!" Others were saying, "How can a man [who is] a sinner perform such signs?" And there was a division among them.

So again they asked the man who used to be blind, "What do you say about him, since he caused you to see?" "He is a prophet," the man replied.

The Jews did not believe this about him—that he was blind and received sight—until they summoned the parents of the one who had received his sight.

and asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? How then doth he now see?

but how he now seeth, we know not; or who opened his eyes, we know not: ask him; he is of age; he shall speak for himself.

His parents said these things because they were afraid of the Jewish authorities who had already decided that anyone who confessed Jesus to be the Christ would be expelled from the synagogue.

So a second time they summoned the man who had been blind and told him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner!”

He answered, and said, Whether He be a sinner, I know not: but one thing I know, that I who was blind, do now see.

we know that God commission'd Moses: as for this fellow, we don't know who sent him.

the man replied, that's very strange that he should make me see, and you should not know who sent him.

We know that God does not listen to sinful men, but He does listen to anyone who worships God and lives to do His will.

It has never been heard of in this world that anyone ever made the eyes of a man who was born blind to see.

He answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe on him?

Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and he is the one who is speaking with you." [[

and Jesus said, to execute justice am I come into this world: that they who see not, may see; and that they who do see, may become blind.

Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said unto him, Are we also blind?

“I assure you: Anyone who doesn’t enter the sheep pen by the door but climbs in some other way, is a thief and a robber.

The one who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

They will not go after another who is not their keeper, but will go from him in flight, because his voice is strange to them.

they who have personated me, are all thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not follow them.

I am the Door; he who goes in through me will be safe, and he will go in and out and find pasture.

but the hireling, who is not the pastor, nor has the property of the sheep, seeing the wolf come, leaves the sheep, and flies away: so the wolf seizes some, and disperses the flock.

Now he who serves for wages flees because he serves for wages, and is not himself concerned about the sheep.

I am the Good Shepherd, and I know those that are Mine, and I am known by those who are Mine.

And I have other sheep who are not of this fold. I must also lead those, and they shall hear My voice, and there shall be one flock, one Shepherd.

The Jews who heard these words became divided again [i.e., over their meaning].

Others were saying, "These are not the words of one who is possessed by a demon! A demon is not able to open the eyes of the blind, [is it]?"

my father who gave them me, is greater than all: so that no one is able to force them out of my father's hand.

The Jews answered him, Not for a good work do we stone thee, but for blasphemy, and because thou, who art a man, makest thyself God.

if the law stiles them Gods, who received the orders of God, and if the scripture is of any authortiy,

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?

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

And many who were there believed on him.

Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, who was of Bethany, the town of Mary, and of Martha her sister.

(it was that Mary who perfum'd the Lord with ointment, after having wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

his two sisters therefore sent this message to Jesus; he, Lord, whom you love, is sick.

Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours [of light] in the day? Anyone who walks in the daytime does not stumble, because he sees [by] the light of this world.

Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said unto his fellow-disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

and many of the Jews had come with the women who were about Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me, even if he dies, will live.

Everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die—ever. Do you believe this?”

do you believe this? yes, Lord, said Martha, I believe that thou art the Messiah the son of God, who was to come into the world.

the Jews then who were with Mary in the house to comfort her, when they saw that she rose in such haste, and went out, followed her, saying, she is going to the grave to weep there.

when Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping who came with her, he sighed from his heart, and was troubled,

Thus the people who had come to mourn said, "Look how much he loved him!"

but some of them said, this man who has given sight to the blind, could not he have prevented Lazarus's death?

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."

So they took away the stone where the man who died was laying. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou heard me.

but I knew that thou always hearest me; but on account of the crowd who stand around I have said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

The one who had died came out, his feet and his hands bound with strips of cloth, and his face wrapped with a facecloth. Jesus said to them, "Untie him and let him go."

many therefore of the Jews who came to see Mary, and had seen what Jesus had done, believed on him.

One of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!

and not for the nation only, but also that the children of God who are scattered would be gathered into one.)

(Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that anyone who knew where Jesus was should report it, so that they could arrest him.)

Six days before the passover Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, and raised to life again.

So they made him a meal there, and he was waited on by Martha, and Lazarus was among those who were seated with him at table.

whereupon one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who was to betray him,

a great multitude of Jews knowing that Jesus was there, went thither, not for his sake only, but likewise to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.

On the next day the large crowd who had come to the feast, [when they] heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

they took palm branches and went out to meet Him. They kept shouting: “Hosanna! He who comes in the name of the Lord is the blessed One—the King of Israel!”

So the crowd who was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead were continuing to testify.

Now some Greeks were among those who went up to worship at the festival.

there were certain Greeks, who address'd themselves to Philip, who was of Bethsaida in Galilee, saying, sir, we would fain see Jesus.

The one who loves his life will lose it, and the one who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

the people therefore present who heard the noise, said it was thunder: others said, an angel spake to him.

Upon which the people said to him, we have learnt from the law, that the Messiah is to live for ever: why do you say then, the son of man must be lift up? who is this son of man?

Jesus answered, “The light will be with you only a little longer. Walk while you have the light so that darkness doesn’t overtake you. The one who walks in darkness doesn’t know where he’s going.

Now for all the Signs he had performed before them, they did not believe in him ??38 that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: Lord, who has believed what they heard from us, And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

so that the passage of Esaias the prophet was fulfilled, where he says, "Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

nevertheless there were many even among the chief rulers, who believed on him; but they did not own it publickly for fear the Pharisees should excommunicate them.

Then Jesus cried out, “The one who believes in Me believes not in Me, but in Him who sent Me.

And the one who sees Me sees Him who sent Me.

I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me would not remain in darkness.

If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, it is not I who judge him; for I have not come to judge the world but to save the world.

The one who rejects Me and doesn’t accept My sayings has this as his judge: The word I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

for I have not spoken for my self; but the father who sent me, he commission'd me, what I should teach, and what I should speak.

Before the Passover Festival, Jesus knew that His hour had come to depart from this world to the Father. Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

Jesus, who knew that the Father had given Him complete authority, [also] knew that He had come from God and was [about] to return to God.

He came to Simon Peter, who asked Him, “Lord, are You going to wash my feet?”

“One who has bathed,” Jesus told him, “doesn’t need to wash anything except his feet, but he is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”

for he knew who would betray him; therefore, said he, you are not every one of you clean.

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

Well, if I have washed your feet, I who am your Lord and Teacher, you are bound to wash one another's feet;

“I assure you: A slave is not greater than his master, and a messenger is not greater than the one who sent him.
