And He said unto them, Ye are from beneath, I am from above: ye are of this world, I am not of this world.

Therefore I said unto you, that ye shall die in your sins; for if ye believe not that I am the Messiah, ye shall die in your sins.

And He that sent me, is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.

Therefore said Jesus to the Jews that believed on Him, If ye continue in my word, ye are indeed my disciples.

They answered Him, We are the seed of Abraham, and never were slaves to any one, how then dost thou say, Ye shall be made free?

I know that ye are the seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.

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

They answered Him, Abraham is our father, Jesus replied, If ye were the children of Abraham, ye would do the works of Abraham:

But ye do the works of your father. Then said they unto Him, We are not born of fornication, we have one Father, even God.

Jesus said unto them, If God were your father, ye would love me: for I came forth, and do come, from God; neither came I of myself, but He sent me.

Ye are of your father the devil, and are bent upon doing the lusts of your father: he was a murderer from the beginning, and continued not in the truth: for there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh like himself, for he is a liar, and the father of such.

He, that is of God, receiveth the words of God; but ye therefore receive them not, because ye are not of God.

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?

and the prophets are dead: whom dost thou pretend to be?

Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom ye say that He is your God.

Your father Abraham longed to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.

And his disciples asked Him, saying, Master, who sinned? this man or his parents? that he was born blind.

Therefore they said to him, How were thine eyes opened?

Then said they unto him, Where is He? he answered, I know not.

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

His parents answered them, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

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

These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed, that if any one confessed Him to be Christ, he should be turned out of the synagogue.

Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple, but we are the disciples of Moses: we know that God spake to Moses:

And if this man were not from God, He could do nothing.

And some of the pharisees who were present, heard these words, and said to Him, Are we blind also?

Jesus replied, If ye were blind, ye would not have sin: but now ye say, We see; your sin therefore remaineth.

All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not regard them.

But the hireling, that is not the true shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf seizeth them, and disperseth the sheep.

And I have other sheep, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they will hear my voice; so there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

Others said, These are not the words of a demoniac; can a demon open the eyes of the blind?

But ye believe not; because ye are not of my sheep: for as I said unto you, my sheep hear my voice,

I and the Father are one. Then the Jews again took up stones to stone Him.

Jesus replied, Is it not written in your law, "I have said, ye are gods?"

to the place where John was at first baptizing, and there He abode.

Therefore when He heard that Lazarus was sick, He stayed indeed two days in the place where He was:

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? if any man walk in the day, he doth not stumble; for he seeth the light of this world:

Having thus answered them, He afterwards saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; but I am going to awake him.

and I am glad for your sakes, I was not there, that ye may believe: but let us go to him.

and many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

Jesus then told her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth on me, though he were dead, shall live again.

For Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in the place where Martha met Him.

The Jews therefore that were with her in the house to comfort her, seeing Mary that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She is going to the grave to weep there.

Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was and saw Him, fell down at his feet, saying unto Him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

And He said, Where have ye laid him?

So they took away the stone from the place where the corpse was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, Father, I thank Thee, that Thou hast heard me.

Therefore the chief priests and the pharisees held a council and said, What are we doing? for this man worketh many miracles.

If we suffer Him to go on thus, all the people will believe on Him, and the Romans will come and destroy both our place and nation.

But Caiaphas who was one of them, being high-priest that year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all;

and not for the Jewish nation only, but that he might also gather together the children of God that are dispersed.

Now both the chief priests and the pharisees had given order, that if any one knew where He was, he should inform them, that they might take Him.

Jesus however, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, and whom He raised from the dead.

The next day a great multitude that were come to the feast, hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took branches of palm-trees,

Now his disciples did not understand these things at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written concerning Him, and that they had done thus unto Him.

And the people that were with Him testified, that He called Lazarus out of the grave, and raised him from the dead:

And among those that came up to worship at the feast there were certain Greeks:

If any man would serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: and if any one serve me, him will my Father honour.

so that the word of Esaias the prophet was fulfilled, which he spake, saying, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

There were however many of the chief rulers that believed on Him; but because of the pharisees they did not confess it, lest they should be excommunicated.

Now before the feast of the passover, (Jesus knowing that his hour was come, when He should pass out of this world unto the Father, as He had loved his own, who were yet in the world, He loved them unto the end:)

Jesus saith to him, He that hath been bathing, hath need only to wash his feet, being then clean all over: and thus ye are clean, but not all of you.

For He knew who would betray Him; therefore He said, Ye are not all clean.

If I then your Lord and Master have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

If ye know these things, happy are ye, if ye do them.

For some of them thought, because Judas kept the purse, that Jesus said to him, Buy what things we have need of against the feast: or that he should give something to the poor.

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; ---as I have loved you, that ye also love one another: for by this shall all men know that ye are my disciples,

Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me.

In my Father's house there are many mansions; if not, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.

And as I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to myself, that where I am, ye may also be.

And ye know where I am going, and ye know the way.

Jesus answered and said unto him, If any one love me, he will observe my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and will make our abode with him.

But the comforter, that is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said unto you.

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you; not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

I am the vine, ye are the branches; he that abideth in me, and I in him, beareth much fruit: but without me ye can do nothing.

If any one abide not in me, he is cast out as a useless branch and withereth: and they gather them up, and throw them into the fire, and they are burnt.

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy in you may continue, and that your joy may be full.

and ye are my friends, if ye do what I command you.

Ye did not first choose me, but I chose you, and have appointed you to go forth, and bear fruit, and that your fruit should be lasting: that whatsoever ye ask the Father in my name, He may give it you.

If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

sorrow hath filled your heart.

All that the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that He shall take of mine and shew it unto you.

Now Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him, and therefore said unto them, Are ye enquiring among each other about this, that I said, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me?

Verily I tell you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

And ye therefore now have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy shall no one take from you.

Hitherto ye have asked for nothing in my name: ask and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I do not say that I will ask the Father on your behalf.

Now we are convinced that Thou knowest all things, and hast no need that any one should ask Thee: by this we believe that Thou camest forth from God.

I have manifested 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 now know that all things whatsoever Thou hast given me, are indeed from Thee;

I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for those whom Thou hast given me, for they are thine.

And all my concerns are thine, and thine are mine: and I am therefore glorified in them.

And as I am to be no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to Thee, Holy Father, keep by thy name those whom Thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

I have given them thy word; and the world hath 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 the glory which thou gavest me, I have given them: that they may be one, even as we are one.

Father, I desire that they also, whom thou hast given me, may be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for Thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

When Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with his disciples over the brook Kedron; where there was a garden, into which He entred, and his disciples. Now Judas who was gone to betray Him,

Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

and led Him away to Annas first: (for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was high-priest that year:) (18:24) and Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high-priest.
