The feast of dedication took place at that time, in Jerusalem: it was, winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon. The Jews, therefore, surrounded him, and were saying unto him - How long, holdest thou, our lives, in suspense? If, thou, art the Christ, tell us, plainly. read more.
Jesus answered them - I told you, and ye believe not: The works which, I, am doing in the name of my Father, the same, bear witness concerning me. But, ye, believe not, because ye are not of my sheep. My sheep, unto my voice, hearken, - and, I, know, them, and they follow me, - And, I, give unto them life age-abiding, and in nowise shall they perish, unto times age-abiding; and no one shall carry them off out of my hand. What, my Father, hath given me, is, something greater than all, and, no one, can carry off out of the hand of my Father: - I and the Father, are, one. The Jews again lifted up stones, that they might stone him. Jesus answered them - Many works, have I showed you, noble ones, from my Father: For which of those works are ye stoning me? The Jews answered him - Concerning a noble work, are we not stoning thee; but concerning profane speech, - and because, thou, being, a man, art making thyself, God. Jesus answered them - Is it not written in your law: I, said, Ye are, gods? If, those, he called gods, unto whom, the word of God, came - and the Scripture cannot be broken - Of him whom, the Father, hallowed and sent forth into the world, are, ye, saying - Thou speakest profanely, because I said, Son of God, I am? If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe in me; But, if I am doing them, even though, in me, ye believe not, in the works, believe, - that ye may get to know and go on to know, that the Father is, in me, and, I, am, in the Father. They were thereforeagain seeking to take him; and he went forth out of their hand.
