They said therefore, What is this that he said, A little while? we cannot tell what he said.

Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do you inquire among yourselves of what I said, A little while, and you shall not see me: and again, a little while, and you shall see me?

Verily, verily, I say unto you, That you shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and you shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

A woman when she is in travail has sorrow, because her hour has come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembers no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.

And in that day you shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, whatsoever you shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

Until now have you asked nothing in my name: ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be full.

At that day you shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:

For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

Now are we sure that you know all things, and need not that any man should ask you: but this we believe that you came forth from God.

Behold, the hour comes, yea, is now come, that you shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

These words spoke Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son, that your Son also may glorify you:

As you have given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as you have given him.

And this is life eternal, that they might know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

I have manifested your name unto the men that you gave me out of the world: yours they were, and you gave them to me; and they have kept your word.

Now they have known that all things whatsoever you have given me are of you.

For I have given unto them the words which you gave me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from you, and they have believed that you did send me.

I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them that you have given me; for they are yours.

And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to you. Holy Father, keep through your own name those whom you have given me, that they may be one, as we are.

While I was with them in the world, I kept them in your name: those that you gave me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

And now come I to you; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

I pray not that you should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil.

And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.

That they all may be one; as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that you have sent me.

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

I in them, and you in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that you have sent me, and have loved them, as you have loved me.

Father, I will that they also, whom you have given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which you have given me: for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

O righteous Father, the world has not known you: but I have known you, and these have known that you have sent me.

And I have declared unto them your name, and will declare it: that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.

Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek you?

Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore you seek me, let these go their way:

That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Of them which you gave me have I lost none.

And led him away to Annas first; for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was the high priest that same year.

Now Caiaphas was he, who gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest.

But Peter stood at the door outside. Then went out that other disciple, who was known unto the high priest, and spoke unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

Then said the girl that kept the door unto Peter, Are not you also one of this man's disciples? He said, I am not.

Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.

That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying what death he should die.

Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from here.

Pilate therefore said unto him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered, You say that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.

But you have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will you therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

Pilate therefore went forth again, and said unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that you may know that I find no fault in him.

When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

Then said Pilate unto him, Speak you not unto me? know you not that I have power to crucify you, and have power to release you?

Jesus answered, You could have no power at all against me, except it were given you from above: therefore he that delivered me unto you has the greater sin.

When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.

They said therefore among themselves, Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which said, They parted my garments among them, and for my clothing they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

Then said he to the disciple, Behold your mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, said, I thirst.

The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was a high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they broke not his legs:

And he that saw it bares record, and his record is true: and he knows that he says the truth, that you might believe.

For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him permission. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.

Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulcher.

And the cloth, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

Then went in also that other disciple, who came first to the sepulcher, and he saw, and believed.

For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

And when she had thus spoke, she turned back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.

Jesus said unto him, Thomas, because you have seen me, you have believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

But these are written, that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you might have life through his name.

Simon Peter said unto them, I am going fishing. They said unto him, We also will go with you. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.

But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved said unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girded his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.

Jesus said unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples dared ask him, Who are you? knowing that it was the Lord.

This is now the third time that Jesus showed himself to his disciples, after he was risen from the dead.

So when they had dined, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me more than these? He said unto him, Yea, Lord; you know that I love you. He said unto him, Feed my lambs.

He said to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me? He said unto him, Yea, Lord; you know that I love you. He said unto him, Feed my sheep.

He said unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Do you love me? And he said unto him, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus said unto him, Feed my sheep.

Then Peter, turning about, saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following; who also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, who is he that betrays you?

Jesus said unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to you? you follow me.

Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to you?

This is the disciple who testifies of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, said he, you have heard of me.

Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who was guide to them that took Jesus.

And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; since that field is called in their proper tongue, Akeldama, that is to say, The field of blood.

Therefore of these men who have accompanied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.

That he may take part in this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.

But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, You men of Judea, and all you that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:

But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord comes:

And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be held by it.

For David spoke concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher is with us unto this day.

Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of his descendants, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

He seeing this before spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hades, neither his flesh did see corruption.

Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God has made that same Jesus, whom you have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

And they knew that it was he who sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.

And as the lame man who was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.
