John 5:31-16:33 If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not worthy of credit.

Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ³¹ If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not worthy of credit. ³² There is another that testifies concerning me, and I know that the testimony which he testifies concerning me is worthy of credit. ³³ You sent to John, and he bore testimony to the truth. ³⁴ But I receive not testimony from man; yet I say these things that you may be saved. ³⁵ He was the burning and shining lamp; and you were willing, for a time, to rejoice in his light. ³⁶ But I have testimony greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these very works which I do, testify concerning me, that the Father has sent me. ³⁷ And the Father, who sent me, has testified concerning me. You have, neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. ³⁸ And his word you have not remaining in you; for whom he has sent, him you believe not. ³⁹ You search the scriptures, because in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify concerning me: ⁴⁰ and yet you refuse to come to me, that you may have life. ⁴¹ I receive not honor from men. ⁴² But I know you, that you have not the love of God in you. ⁴³ I have come in my Father's name, and you receive me not; if another should come in his own name, him you would receive. ⁴⁴ How can you believe who receive honor one from another, and seek not the honor that comes from God alone? ⁴⁵ Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuses you, Moses, in whom you trust. ⁴⁶ For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed me; for he wrote of me. ⁴⁷ But if you believe not his writings, how shall you believe my words? ⁶ ¹ After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. ² And a great multitude followed him, because they had seen the signs which he did in the case of the sick. ³ And Jesus went up into the mountain, and sat there with his disciples. ⁴ And the passover, the feast of the Jews, was near. ⁵ Then Jesus, lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great multitude was coming to him, said to Philip: Whence shall we buy bread that these may eat? ⁶ But this he said to try him; for he himself knew what he was about to do. ⁷ Philip answered him: Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not enough for them, that each may take a little. ⁸ One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him: ⁹ There is a lad here that has five barley loaves, and two little fishes; but what are these among so many? ¹⁰ But Jesus said: Make die men recline. Now, there was much grass in the place. So the men reclined, in number about five thousand. ¹¹ And Jesus took the loaves, and after giving thanks, distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those who had reclined; and in like manner of the fishes, as much as they wished. ¹² And when they were satisfied, he said to his disciples: Gather up the broken pieces which remain, that nothing be lost. ¹³ Then they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the broken pieces of the five barley loaves, which remained after they had eaten. ¹⁴ Then the men, after having seen the sign which Jesus did, said: This is, in truth, the prophet that was to come into the world. ¹⁵ Therefore, Jesus perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force, to make him king, withdrew into the mountain himself alone. ¹⁶ And when evening had come, his disciples went down to the sea, ¹⁷ and, having entered the ship, went across the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them. ¹⁸ And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that was blowing. ¹⁹ Then, having rowed about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and coming near the ship; and they were afraid. ²⁰ But he said to them: It is I; be not afraid. ²¹ Then they willingly received him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they were going. ²² The next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea, seeing that no other boat had been there but the one which his disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone; ²³ (but there came other boats from Tiberias near the place where they had eaten bread, after the Lord had given thanks;) ²⁴ when, therefore, the multitude saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they also entered the ships, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. ²⁵ And finding him on the opposite side of the sea, they said to him: Rabbi, when didst thou come hither? ²⁶ Jesus answered them, and said: Verily, verily I say to you, You seek me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves, and were satisfied. ²⁷ Labor not for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to life eternal, which the Son of man will give you; for him has God the Father at tested. ²⁸ Then they said to him: What shall we do, that we may work the works of God? ²⁹ Jesus answered and said to them: This is the work of God, that you believe on him whom he has sent. ³⁰ Therefore, they said to him: "What sign do you show, then, that we may see, and believe you? What work do you perform? ³¹ Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. ³² Then Jesus said to them: Verily, verily I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven. ³³ For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven, and gives life for the world. ³⁴ Then they said to him: Lord, evermore give us this bread. ³⁵ Jesus said to them: I am the bread of life; he that comes to me shall never hunger; he that believes on me shall never thirst. ³⁶ But I said to you, that you have seen me, and yet you do not believe. ³⁷ All that the Father gives me, will come to me; and him that comes to me, I will by no means cast out. ³⁸ For I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me. ³⁹ And this is the will of him who sent me, that of all that he gives me, I shall lose nothing, but shall raise it up at the last day. ⁴⁰ For this is the will of him that sent me, that every one who sees the Son, and believes on him, may have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁴¹ Then the Jews murmured at him, because he said, I am like bread that came down from heaven. ⁴² And they said: Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How, then, does he say, I came down from heaven? ⁴³ Jesus answered and said to them: Murmur not among your selves; ⁴⁴ no man can come to me, unless the Father, who sent me, draw him; and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁴⁵ It is written in the- prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Every one that hears from the Father, and learns, comes to me. ⁴⁶ Not that any one has seen the Father, but he who is from God; he has seen the Father. ⁴⁷ Verily, verily I say to you, He that believes on me has eternal life. ⁴⁸ I am the bread of life. ⁴⁹ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and died. ⁵⁰ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that any one may eat of it, and not die. ⁵¹ I am the bread that lives, which came down from heaven. If any one eat of this bread, he shall live forever. And the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. ⁵² The Jews, therefore, contended among themselves, saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat? ⁵³ Then Jesus said to them: Verily, verily I say to you, Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life in you. ⁵⁴ He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood, has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day; ⁵⁵ for my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. ⁵⁶ He that eats my flesh and drinks my blood, dwells in me, and I in him. ⁵⁷ As the living Father has sent me, and I live by the Father, so he that eats me, even he shall live by me. ⁵⁸ This is the bread that came down from heaven; not as your fathers ate the manna, and died; he that eats this bread shall live forever. ⁵⁹ These things he spoke in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum. ⁶⁰ Therefore, many of his disciples, when they heard him, said: This is a hard saying; who can hear it? ⁶¹ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said to them: Does this offend you? ⁶² Then, what if you should see the Son of man go up where he was before? ⁶³ It is the spirit that makes alive; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I speak to you are spirit and life. ⁶⁴ But there are some among you who believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who he was that would betray him. ⁶⁵ And he said: For this reason I said to you: No one can come to me unless it be given him from my Father. ⁶⁶ After this, many of his disciples went back, and walked with him no more. ⁶⁷ Then Jesus said to the twelve: Will you also go away? ⁶⁸ Simon Peter answered him: Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life; ⁶⁹ and we believe, and know that thou art the Christ, the Son of God. ⁷⁰ Jesus answered them: Have I not chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? ⁷¹ He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon; for he was about to deliver him up, being one of the twelve. ⁷ ¹ And after this Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. ² Now the feast of tabernacles, a feast of the Jews, was near. ³ Then his brothers said to him: Depart hence, and go into Judea, that your disciples may see your works which you do; ⁴ for no one does any thing in secret, while he himself seeks to be before the public. If you do these things, show yourself to the world. ⁵ For neither did his brothers believe on him. ⁶ Then Jesus said to them: My time has not yet come; but your time is always ready. ⁷ The world can not hate you; but me it hates, because I testify of it, that its works are evil. ⁸ Do you go up to this feast. I go not up now to this feast, because my time has not yet fully come. ⁹ These things said he to them, and remained in Galilee. ¹⁰ But when his brothers had gone up, then he also went up to the feast, not openly, but, as it were, in secret. ¹¹ Then the Jews sought for him at the feast, and said: Where is he? ¹² And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said: He is a good man. Others said: No; but he deceives the multitude. ¹³ However, no one spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews. ¹⁴ Now in the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. ¹⁵ And the Jews were astonished, and said: How has this man a knowledge of letters, having never been taught? ¹⁶ Then Jesus answered and said: My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me. ¹⁷ If any one will do his will, he shall know with respect to the teaching, whether it is of God, or I speak of myself. ¹⁸ He who speaks of himself, seeks his own glory; he who seeks the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and there is no unrighteousness in him. ¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law? and not one of you keeps the law. Why do you seek to kill me? ²⁰ The multitude answered and said: You have a demon: who seeks to kill you? ²¹ Jesus answered and said to them: I have done one work, and you are all astonished on account of this. ²² Moses gave you circumcision, (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers,) and you circumcise a man on the sabbath-day. ²³ If a man receives circumcision on the sabbath-day, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I have restored the entire man to health on the sabbath-day? ²⁴ Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment. ²⁵ Then said some of the men of Jerusalem: Is not this he whom they seek to kill? ²⁶ and, lo, he is speaking boldly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers really learned that this is the Christ? ²⁷ But we know this man, whence he is. But when the Christ comes, no one knows whence he is. ²⁸ Then Jesus cried out in the temple, as he was teaching, and said: You both know me, and you know whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you know not. ²⁹ But I know him, because I am from him, and he has sent me. ³⁰ Then they sought to take him; yet no one laid his hand on him, because his hour had not yet come. ³¹ And many of the multitude believed on him, and said: When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than these which this man has done? ³² The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and chief priests sent attendants to take him. ³³ Then Jesus said to them: Yet a little while I am with you, and I go away to him that sent me. ³⁴ You will seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, you can not come. ³⁵ Then the Jews said among themselves: Whither is this man about to go, that we shall not find him? Is he about to go to those who are dispersed among the Greeks, and to teach the Greeks? ³⁶ What means this saying which he uttered, You will seek me, and will not find me; and, Where I am you can not come? ³⁷ On the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink. ³⁸ He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, from his inner self shall flow rivers of living water. ³⁹ But this he spoke of the Spirit, which those who believe on him were about to receive; for the Holy Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified. ⁴⁰ Therefore, many of the multitude, when they had heard this word, said: This is, in truth, the prophet. ⁴¹ Others said: This is the Christ. But others said: Does the Christ come out of Galilee? ⁴² Has not the scripture said that the Christ comes from the posterity of David, and from Bethlehem, the town where David was? ⁴³ So there was a division among the multitude because of him. ⁴⁴ And some of them desired to take him; but no one laid hands on him. ⁴⁵ Then came the attendants to the chief priests and the Pharisees; and they said to them: Why have you not brought him? ⁴⁶ The attendants answered: Never did man speak like this man. ⁴⁷ Then the Pharisees answered them: Are you also deceived? ⁴⁸ Has any one of the rulers, or of the Pharisees believed on him? ⁴⁹ But this multitude that know not the law are cursed. ⁵⁰ Nicodemus said to them (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them): ⁵¹ Does our law condemn a man unless it first hear from him, and know what he does? ⁵² They answered and said to him: Are you also from Galilee? Search, and see that out of Galilee arises no prophet. ⁵³ And every one departed to his own house. ⁸ ¹ But Jesus went to the mount of Olives. ² And in the morning he again entered the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. ³ And the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman who had been detected in adultery; and they made her stand in the midst, ⁴ and said to him: Teacher, this woman was detected in adultery; in the very act. ⁵ Now Moses, in his law, commanded us, that such should be stoned; but what say you? ⁶ This they said to tempt him, that they might bring an accusation against him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground. ⁷ But as they continued to ask him, he stood up, and said to them: Let him among you who is without sin, first throw a stone at her. ⁸ And again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. ⁹ But having heard him, and being convicted by their conscience, they went out, one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. ¹⁰ And when Jesus stood up, and saw no one but the woman, he said to her: Woman, where are those who accused you? Has no one condemned you? ¹¹ She said: No one, sir. Jesus said to her: Neither do I condemn you; go, and sin no more. ¹² Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying: I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. ¹³ Then the Pharisees said to him: You testify concerning yourself; your testimony is not worthy of credit. ¹⁴ Jesus answered and said to them: Though I testify concerning myself, my testimony is worthy of credit; for I know whence I came, and whither I go. But you know not whence I came, and whither I go. ¹⁵ You judge according to the flesh; I judge no man. ¹⁶ And yet if I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me. ¹⁷ It is also written in your law, The testimony of two is worthy of credit. ¹⁸ I am one that testify concerning myself, and the Father who sent me, testifies of me. ¹⁹ Then they said to him: Where is your Father? Jesus answered: You know neither me, nor my Father. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. ²⁰ These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come. ²¹ Then spoke Jesus to them again; I go away, and you will seek me, and in your sin you shall die; whither I go, you can not come. ²² Then said the Jews: Will he kill himself, because he says, Whither I go, you can not come? ²³ And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world. ²⁴ Therefore said I to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am, He, you shall die in your sins. ²⁵ Then they said to him: Who are you? And Jesus said to them: The same that I said to you at the beginning. ²⁶ I have many things to say, and to judge with respect to you; but he that sent me is true; and what things I have heard from him, these I speak to the world. ²⁷ They knew not that he was speaking to them of the Father. ²⁸ Then said Jesus to them: When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things. ²⁹ And he that sent me is with me. The Father has not left me alone, because I always do what is pleasing to him. ³⁰ While he was speaking these words, many believed on him. ³¹ Then said Jesus to those Jews that believed on him: If you continue in my word, you are my disciples indeed, ³² and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. ³³ They answered him: We are the posterity of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one. How say you, You shall be made free? ³⁴ Jesus answered them: Verily, verily I say to you, whoever works sin is the servant of sin. ³⁵ The servant continues not in the house forever; but the Son continues forever. ³⁶ Therefore, if the Son make you free, you shall be free indeed. ³⁷ I know that you are the posterity of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you. ³⁸ I speak what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have seen with your father. ³⁹ They answered and said to him: Abra ham is our father. Jesus said to them: If you were the children of Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham. ⁴⁰ But now you seek to kill me, a man that has spoken to you the truth, which I have heard from God; this Abraham did not. ⁴¹ You do the works of your father. They said to him: We were not born of lewdness; we have one father, God. ⁴² Jesus said to them: If God were your father, you would love me; for I came forth from God and have come hither; nor, indeed, did I come of myself, but he sent me. ⁴³ Why do you not know what I say? Because you can not understand my words. ⁴⁴ You are of your father, the devil; and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the be ginning, and stood not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks that which is false, he speaks from what is his own; for he is a liar, and the father of it. ⁴⁵ But because I speak the truth, you believe me not. ⁴⁶ Which of you convicts me of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe me? ⁴⁷ He that is of God, hears God's words. For this reason you do not hear them, because you are not of God. ⁴⁸ The Jews answered, and said to him: Do we not well say that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon? ⁴⁹ Jesus answered: I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me. ⁵⁰ I seek not my own glory; there is one that seeks and judges. ⁵¹ Verily, verily I say to you, if any one will keep my word, he shall never see death. ⁵² Then said the Jews to him: Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death. ⁵³ Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead; whom do you make yourself? ⁵⁴ Jesus answered: If I honor myself, my honor is nothing; it is my Father that honors me, of whom you say, that he is your God. ⁵⁵ And yet you have not known him. But I know him; and if I should say that I do not know him, I should be like yourselves, a liar. But I know him, and I keep his word. ⁵⁶ Abraham, your father, rejoiced that he could see my day; and he saw it, and was glad. ⁵⁷ Then the Jews said to him: You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham? ⁵⁸ Jesus said to them: Verily, verily I say to you, before Abraham came into being, I was. ⁵⁹ Then they took up stones to throw at him. But Jesus concealed himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them; and so passed by. ⁹ ¹ And as he passed by, he saw a man that had been blind from his birth. ² And his disciples asked him, saying: Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? ³ Jesus answered: Neither this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God might be made manifest in him. ⁴ I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night comes, when no man can work. ⁵ While I am in the world, I am the light of the world. ⁶ Having said this, he spit on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on the eyes of the blind man, ⁷ and said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloam; which, translated, means Sent. He went, therefore, and washed and came seeing. ⁸ Then his neighbors, and those who had before seen him, that he was blind, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? ⁹ Some said: It is he. Others: He is like him. But he said: I am he. ¹⁰ Then they said to him: How were your eyes opened? ¹¹ He answered and said: A man called Jesus made clay and spread it on my eyes, and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloam and wash. After I had gone and washed, I received my sight. ¹² Then they said to him: "Where is he? He said: I know not. ¹³ They brought to the Pharisees him that had formerly been blind. ¹⁴ And it was the sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes. ¹⁵ Then again the Pharisees also inquired of him how he had received his sight. He said to them: He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see. ¹⁶ Then some of the Pharisees said: This man is not from God, for he keeps not the sabbath. Others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such signs? And there was a division among them? ¹⁷ Again they said to the blind man: What say you of him, seeing that he opened your eyes? He said: He is a prophet. ¹⁸ The Jews did not, therefore, believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, till they called the parents of him that had received his sight, ¹⁹ and asked them, saying: Is this your son, who, you say, was born blind? How, then, does he now see? ²⁰ His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind; ²¹ but how he now sees we know not; or who opened his eyes we know not. He is of age; ask him; he will speak for himself. ²² His parents said this, because they feared the Jews. For the Jews had already agreed, that if any one should confess him to be the Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. ²³ For this reason his parents said: He is of age; ask him. ²⁴ Then, the second time, they called the man who had been blind, and said to him: Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner. ²⁵ He answered and said: If he is a sinner, I know it not. One thing I do know, that having been blind, I now see. ²⁶ They said to him again: "What did he for you? How did he open your eyes? ²⁷ He answered them: I have already told you, and you did not understand; why would you hear it again? Do you also wish to become his disciples? ²⁸ They reviled him, and said: You are the disciple of that man; but we are the disciples of Moses. ²⁹ We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is. ³⁰ The man answered and said to them: Why, there is some thing wonderful in this, that you know not whence he is, and yet he has opened my eyes. ³¹ We know that God hears not sinners; but if any one be a worshiper of God, and do his will, him he hears. ³² Since the beginning it has not been heard that any one opened the eyes of one who had been born blind. ³³ If this man were not of God, he could do nothing. ³⁴ They answered and said to him: You were wholly born in sins, and do you teach us? And they cast him out. ³⁵ Jesus heard that they had cast him out. And having found him, he said to him: Do you believe on the Son of God? ³⁶ He answered and said: Who is he, sir, that I may believe on him? ³⁷ Jesus said to him: You have seen him; and it is he that talks with you. ³⁸ He said: Lord, I believe; and he worshiped him. ³⁹ And Jesus said: For judgment have I come into this world, that those who see not, may see; and that those who see, may become blind. ⁴⁰ And some of the Pharisees who were with him, heard these things, and said to him: Are we also blind? ⁴¹ Jesus said to them: If you were blind, you would not have sin; but now you say, We see; therefore your sin remains. ¹⁰ ¹ Verily, verily I say to you, he that goes not through the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, he is a thief, and a robber. ² But he that enters through the door, is the shepherd of the sheep. ³ To him the door-keeper opens; and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. ⁴ And when he puts his own sheep out, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him; for they know his voice. ⁵ And a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him; for they know not the voice of strangers. ⁶ This parable spoke Jesus to them; but they knew not the meaning of the things which he spoke to them. ⁷ Therefore Jesus spoke again to them: Verily, verily I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. ⁸ All that came before me were thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not hear them. ⁹ I am the door: if any one enters through me, he shall be saved; and he shall go in and out, and find pasture. ¹⁰ The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in abundance. ¹¹ I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. ¹² But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, to whom the sheep do not belong, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep, and scatters them. ¹³ The hireling flees because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep. ¹⁴ I am the good shepherd, and I know my sheep, and am known by mine. ¹⁵ As the Father knows me, I also know the Father, and I lay down my life for the sheep. ¹⁶ And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold; those, also, must I bring, and they will hear my voice: and there shall be one flock, one shepherd. ¹⁷ For this reason, my Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again. ¹⁸ No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again. This commandment I have received from my Father. ¹⁹ Again, therefore, there was a division among the Jews, on account of these words. ²⁰ And many of them said: He has a demon, and is mad; why do you hear him? ²¹ Others said: These are not the words of one that has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind? ²² And the feast of the dedication was celebrated in Jerusalem, and it was winter: ²³ and Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomon's porch. ²⁴ Then the Jews came round him, and said to him: How long do you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly. ²⁵ Jesus answered them: I have told you, and you do not believe. The works which I do in my Father's name, these testify of me. ²⁶ But you believe not, because you are not of my sheep. As I said to you, ²⁷ my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: ²⁸ and I give them eternal life; and they shall never perish, and no one shall take them out of my hand. ²⁹ My Father, who gave them to me, is greater than all; and no one is able to take them out of my Father's hand. ³⁰ I and my Father are one. ³¹ Then the Jews took up stones again, to stone him. ³² Jesus answered them: Many good works have I showed you from my Father: for which of these works do you stone me? ³³ The Jews answered and said to him: We do not stone you for a good work, but for your impious words; and because you, being man, make yourself God. ³⁴ Jesus answered them: Is it not written in your law, I said, you are gods? ³⁵ If he called them gods, to whom the word of God was committed, (and the scripture can not be made void,) ³⁶ do you say of him, whom the Father has sanctified, and sent into the world, You speak impiously, because I said, I am the Son of God? ³⁷ If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not; ³⁸ but if I do, though you believe not me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in him. ³⁹ Then they sought again to take him, but he escaped from their hands. ⁴⁰ And he went away again beyond the Jordan, to the place where John first immersed, and there he abode. ⁴¹ And many came to him, and said: John did no sign; but all things that John said of this man were true. ⁴² And many who were there believed on him. ¹¹ ¹ Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus, of Bethany, the village of Mary and Martha her sister. ² It was the Mary that anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. ³ Therefore his sisters sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. ⁴ But when Jesus heard it, he said: This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that by it the Son of God may be glorified. ⁵ Now, Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. ⁶ When, therefore, he heard that he was sick, he still remained two days in the place where he was. ⁷ Then after this, he said to his disciples: Let us go into Judea again. ⁸ His disciples said to him: Rabbi, the Jews just now sought to stone thee, and art thou going thither again? ⁹ Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walks during the day,, he does not stumble, for he sees the light of this world. ¹⁰ But if any one walks in the night, he stumbles, be cause there is no light in him. ¹¹ Thus spoke he; and after this he said to them: Our friend Lazarus sleeps; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep. ¹² Then his disciples said: Lord, if he sleeps, he will be saved. ¹³ Jesus spoke of his death; but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep. ¹⁴ Therefore, Jesus then said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead. ¹⁵ And I rejoice, on your account, that I was not there, in order that you may believe. But let us go to him. ¹⁶ Then Thomas, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow-disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him. ¹⁷ Then when Jesus came, he found that he had already been four days in the tomb. ¹⁸ Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off. ¹⁹ And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother. ²⁰ Then Martha, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went out to meet him; but Mary sat still in the house. ²¹ Then Martha said to Jesus: Lord, if thou hadst been here my brother would not have died. ²² But even now, I know that whatever thou wilt ask of God, God will give thee. ²³ Jesus said to her: Your brother shall rise again. ²⁴ Martha said to him: I know that he will rise, in the resurrection at the last day. ²⁵ Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection, and the life; he that believes on me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; ²⁶ and he that lives and believes on me, shall never die. Do you believe this? ²⁷ She said to him: Yes, Lord; I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world. ²⁸ And when she had said this, she went away, and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying: The Teacher has come, and calls for you. ²⁹ When she heard it, she rose quickly and came to him. ³⁰ Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met him. ³¹ Then the Jews that were with her in the house, and were comforting her, seeing Mary rise and go out quickly, followed her, saying: She is going to the tomb to weep there. ³² Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother would not have died. ³³ Then, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews that came with her weeping also, he was greatly moved in spirit, and troubled; ³⁴ and he said: Where have you laid him? They said to him: Lord, come and see. ³⁵ Jesus wept. ³⁶ Then said the Jews: See how he loved him! ³⁷ And some of them said: Could not he, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have caused that even this man should not have died? ³⁸ Then Jesus, again greatly moved within himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was laid against it. ³⁹ Jesus said: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, said to him: Lord, the body is offensive; for he has been dead four days. ⁴⁰ Jesus said to her: Did I not tell you, that, if you would believe, you should see the glory of God? ⁴¹ Then they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted -up his eyes and said: Father, I thank thee, that thou hast heard me. ⁴² I know, in deed, that thou dost always hear me. But for the sake of the multitude who stand around me, I have said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. ⁴³ And when he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. ⁴⁴ And he that had been dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave-clothes; and his face was bound around with a handkerchief. Jesus said to them: Loose him, and let him go. ⁴⁵ Then many of the Jews that had come to Mary, and who saw what he had done, believed on him. ⁴⁶ But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus had done. ⁴⁷ Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called together the Sanhedrin, and said: What are we doing? For this man does many signs. ⁴⁸ If we thus let him alone, all will believe on him, and the Romans will come and take away our place and our nation. ⁴⁹ But one of them, Caiaphas, who was chief priest that year, said to them: You know nothing, ⁵⁰ nor do you consider that it is profitable for us, that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish. ⁵¹ But this he did not speak of himself; but being chief priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation; ⁵² and not for the nation only, but that he should gather into one the children of God that were scattered abroad. ⁵³ From that day, therefore, they consulted together to put him to death. ⁵⁴ Therefore, Jesus no longer walked openly among the Jews, but withdrew thence to the region near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there he remained with his disciples. ⁵⁵ And the passover of the Jews was near; and many went up from the country to Jerusalem, before the passover, to purify themselves. ⁵⁶ Then they sought for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple: What think you, that he will not come to the feast? ⁵⁷ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders, that, if any one knew where he was, he should inform them, that they might take him. ¹² ¹ Then, six days before the passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he had raised from the dead. ² There they made him a supper, and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of those who reclined at table with him. ³ Then Mary took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the perfume of the ointment. ⁴ Then said one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, who was about to deliver him up: ⁵ Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor? ⁶ But he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the purse, and took what was put in it. ⁷ Then Jesus said: Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of my burial. ⁸ For the poor you have always with you; but me you have not always. ⁹ Therefore, a great multitude of the Jews learned that he was there; and they came, not on account of Jesus only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead. ¹⁰ But the chief priests consulted that they might kill Lazarus also, ¹¹ because on account of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus. ¹² On the next day, a great multitude that had come to the feast, having heard that Jesus was coming into Jerusalem, ¹³ took branches of palm-trees, and went out to meet him, and cried: Hosanna, blessed is the king of Israel that comes in the name of the Lord. ¹⁴ And Jesus, having found a young ass, sat upon him, as it is written: ¹⁵ Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king comes, sitting on the colt of an ass. ¹⁶ His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things to him. ¹⁷ The multitude therefore that was with him, testified that he had called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead. ¹⁸ For this reason, also, the multitude met him, be cause they had heard that he had done this sign. ¹⁹ Then the Pharisees said among themselves: You see that you gain nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him. ²⁰ Among those who came to worship at the feast were certain Greeks. ²¹ These then came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying: Sir, we wish to see Jesus. ²² Philip came and told Andrew; and then Andrew and Philip told Jesus. ²³ But Jesus answered them, saying: The hour has come that the Son of man must be glorified. ²⁴ Verily, verily I say to you, unless a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die, it remains alone; but if it die, it produces much fruit. ²⁵ He that loves his life shall lose it; and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it to eternal life. ²⁶ If any one serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall my servant also be. If any one serve me, him will my Father honor. ²⁷ Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour? But for this purpose came I to this hour. ²⁸ Father, glorify thy name. Then there came a voice from heaven: I have glorified it, and will glorify it again. ²⁹ Then the multitude that stood by and heard it, said: It thundered. Others said: An angel spoke to him. ³⁰ Jesus answered and said: This voice came not for my sake, but for yours. ³¹ Now is the judgment of this world: now is the prince of this world cast out. ³² And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself. ³³ This he said, signifying what death he was about to die. ³⁴ The multitude answered him: We have heard out of the law, that the Christ remains forever: and how say you that the Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man? ³⁵ Then Jesus said to them: Yet a little while is the light with you: walk while you have the light, lest the darkness overtake you. For he that walks in the darkness knows not whither he goes. ³⁶ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become the sons of light. These things spoke Jesus, and he departed, and concealed himself from them. ³⁷ But though he had done so many signs in their presence, yet they believed not on him, ³⁸ that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: Lord, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? ³⁹ For this reason they could not believe, because Isaiah said again: ⁴⁰ He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and should turn, and I should give them health. ⁴¹ These things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him. ⁴² But yet, many even of the rulers believed on him; but on account of the Pharisees, they would not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; ⁴³ for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God. ⁴⁴ Jesus cried, and said: He that believes on me, believes not on me, but on him that sent me. ⁴⁵ And he that sees me, sees him that sent me. ⁴⁶ I have come a light into the world, that he who believes on me, may not remain in darkness. ⁴⁷ And if any one hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not; for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. ⁴⁸ He that rejects me, and receives not my words, has that which judges him: the word which I have spoken, that shall judge him in the last day. ⁴⁹ For I have not spoken of myself: but the Father who sent me, he gave me commandment what I should say, and what I should speak. ⁵⁰ And I know that his commandment is life eternal. What things I speak therefore, as the Father has said to me, so I speak. ¹³ ¹ Now before the feast of the passover, Jesus knew that his hour had come that he must go out of this world to his Father; and having loved his own that were in the world, he loved them to the end. ² And supper being over, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to deliver him up, ³ Jesus, knowing that the Father had delivered all things into his hands, and that he had come from God, and was going to God, ⁴ arose from supper, and laid aside his garments, and taking a towel, he girded himself. ⁵ Then he poured water into a basin, and began to wash his disciples feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded. ⁶ Then he came to Simon Peter; and Peter said to him: Lord, dost thou wash my feet? ⁷ Jesus answered and said to him: What I am doing you know not now, but you will know here after. ⁸ Peter said to him: Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him: Unless I wash you, you have no part with me. ⁹ Simon Peter said to him: Lord, not my feet only, but my hands and my head. ¹⁰ Jesus said to him: He that has bathed needs nothing else save to wash his feet, but is wholly clean. And you are clean, but not all. ¹¹ For he knew who would deliver him up; for this reason he said, You are not all clean. ¹² Therefore, when he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, he reclined at table again, and said to them: Do you understand what I have done for you? ¹³ You call me Teacher and Lord; and you say well, for so I am. ¹⁴ If, then, I, your Lord and your Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. ¹⁵ For I have given you an example, that you also may do as I have done for you. ¹⁶ Verily, verily I say to you, the servant is not greater than his master, nor is he that is sent greater than he that sent him. ¹⁷ If you know these things, blessed are you, if you do them. ¹⁸ I speak not of you all. I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me. ¹⁹ I tell you this now, before it comes to pass, that when it comes to pass, you may believe that I am he. ²⁰ Verily, verily I say to you, he that receives him that I shall send, receives me; and he that receives me, receives him that sent me. ²¹ When Jesus had spoken these things, he was troubled in spirit, and testified and said: Verily, verily I say to you, that one of you will deliver me up. ²² Then the disciples looked at one another, doubting of whom he spoke. ²³ There was reclining on the bosom of Jesus, one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. ²⁴ Then Simon Peter beckoned to this one, that he should inquire who it was of whom he spoke. ²⁵ And he that was reclining on Jesus breast, said to him: Lord, who is it? ²⁶ Jesus answered: It is he to whom I shall give this morsel after I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. ²⁷ And after the morsel was given, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him: What you do, do quickly. ²⁸ But none of those who reclined at table with him knew for what purpose he said this to him. ²⁹ For some thought, because Judas had the purse, that Jesus had said to him: Buy what we need for the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor. ³⁰ Then, on receiving the morsel, he immediately went out; and it was night. ³¹ When he had gone out, Jesus said: Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him. ³² If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and will immediately glorify him. ³³ Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me, and, as I said to the Jews, whither I go, you can not come, so now I say to you. ³⁴ A new commandment I give to you, That you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. ³⁵ By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another. ³⁶ Simon Peter said to him: Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him: Whither I go, you can not follow me now; but you shall follow me hereafter. ³⁷ Peter said to him: Lord, why can I not follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee. ³⁸ Jesus answered him: Will you lay down your life for me? Verily, verily I say to you, the cock will not crow till you have denied me three times. ¹⁴ ¹ Let not your heart be troubled; believe in God; believe also in me. ² In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. ³ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you with myself, that where I am, you may be also. ⁴ And whither I go you know, and the way you know. ⁵ Thomas said to him: Lord, we know not whither thou goest, and how can we know the way? ⁶ Jesus said to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through me. ⁷ If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. And from this time you know him, and have seen him. ⁸ Philip said to him: Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be content. ⁹ Jesus said to him: Have I been so long with you, and have you not known me, Philip? He that has seen me, has seen the Father; and how say you, Show us the Father? ¹⁰ Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you, I speak not of myself. The Father who dwells in me, he does the works. ¹¹ Believe me, that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me. If not, believe me on account of the works themselves. ¹² Verily, verily I say to you, he that believes on me, the works that I do he also shall do. Even greater works than these shall he do, because I go to my Father; ¹³ and whatever you ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. ¹⁴ If you ask any thing in my name, I will do it. ¹⁵ If you love me, keep my commandments; ¹⁶ and I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Paraclete, that he may dwell with you forever; ¹⁷ the Spirit of the truth, whom the world can not receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, because he dwells with you, and shall be in you. ¹⁸ I will not leave you orphans; I am coming to you. ¹⁹ Yet a little while, and the world sees me no more; but you shall see me. Because I live, you also shall live. ²⁰ In that clay you shall know that I am in my Father, arid you in me, and I in you. ²¹ He that has my commandments and keeps them, he it is that loves me; and he that loves me shall be loved by my Father; and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. ²² Judas, not Iscariot, said to him: Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself to us, and not to the world? ²³ Jesus answered and said to him: If any one loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him. ²⁴ He that loves me not, keeps not my words; and the word which you hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me. ²⁵ These things have I spoken to you, while I am yet with you. ²⁶ But the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I have spoken to you. ²⁷ Peace I leave to you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives, do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, and let it not be afraid. ²⁸ You have heard that I said to you, I am going away, and am coming again to you. If you loved me, you would rejoice, because I go to the Father; for my Father is greater than I. ²⁹ And now I have told you before it comes to pass, that when it does come to pass, you may believe. ³⁰ I will not talk much more with you; for the prince of this world is coming, and has nothing in me. ³¹ But this takes place that the world may know that I love the Father, and even as he gave me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go hence. ¹⁵ ¹ I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine-dresser. ² Every branch in me that bears no fruit, he takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. ³ Now are you pure, through the word which I have spoken to you. ⁴ Abide in me, and I will abide in you. As the branch can not bear fruit of itself, unless it abide in the vine, so neither can you, unless you abide in me. ⁵ I am the vine, you are the branches. He that abides in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; for apart from me you can do nothing. ⁶ If any one abide not in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and withers; and such are gathered, and thrown into the fire, and burned. ⁷ If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done for you. ⁸ In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; and in this you will be my disciples. ⁹ As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love. ¹⁰ If you keep my commandments, you shall abide in my love, even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. ¹¹ These things have I spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. ¹² This is my commandment: That you love one another, as I have loved you. ¹³ Greater love has no man than this, that one should lay down his life for his friends. ¹⁴ You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you. ¹⁵ I no longer call you servants, because the servant knows not what his master does. But I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you. ¹⁶ You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and appointed you, that you may go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit may remain; that whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he may give you. ¹⁷ These things I command you, that you may love one another. ¹⁸ If the world hates you, you know that it hated me before it hated you. ¹⁹ If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. ²⁰ Remember the word which I spoke to you, The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my word, they will keep yours also. ²¹ But all these things they will do to you on my account, because they know not him that sent me. ²² If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. ²³ He that hates me, hates my Father also. ²⁴ If I had not done among them the works that no other man has done, they would have had no sin; but now they have both seen, and hated both me and my Father. ²⁵ But this is so, that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. ²⁶ But when the Paraclete has come, whom I will send to you from my Father, the Spirit of the truth, which proceeds from the Father, he will testify of me; ²⁷ and you also will testify, because you have been with me from the beginning. ¹⁶ ¹ These things have I spoken to you, that you may not be ensnared. ² They will put you out of the synagogues; in deed, the time is coming, when he that kills you, will think that he is offering service to God. ³ And these things they will do, because they know neither the Father nor me. ⁴ But these things I have told you, that, when the time has come, you may remember that I told you of them. But these things I did not tell you at the beginning, because I was with you. ⁵ And now I go to him that sent me, and no one of you asks me, "Whither goest thou? ⁶ But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. ⁷ But yet I tell you the truth: it is profitable for you that I go away. For if I go not away, the Paraclete will not come to you. But if I go away, I will send him to you. ⁸ And when he has come, he will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. ⁹ Of sin, because they believe not on me; ¹⁰ of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and you see me no more; ¹¹ of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. ¹² I have yet many things to say to you; but you can not bear them now. ¹³ But when he, the Spirit of the truth, has come, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak of himself; but what he hears, that will he speak, and he will show you things to come. ¹⁴ He will glorify me; for he will take of mine, and show it to you. ¹⁵ All things that the Father has are mine; for this reason I said, that he will take of mine, and show it to you. ¹⁶ A little while, and you will not see me; and again, a little while, and you will see me, be cause I go to the Father. ¹⁷ Then some of his disciples said one to another: "What is this that he says to us, A little while, and - you will not see me; and again, a little while, and you will see me? and, Be cause I go to the Father? ¹⁸ Therefore they said: "What is this that he says, The little while? We know not what he says. ¹⁹ Then Jesus knew that they wished to ask him; and he said to them: Are you inquiring of one another about this, because I said, A little while and you will not see me; and again, a little while, and you will see me? ²⁰ Verily, verily I say to you, you shall weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. ²¹ A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow, be cause her hour has come; but when the child is born, she no longer remembers the pain, for joy that a man is born into the world. ²² You, therefore, have sorrow now; but I shall see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one takes from you. ²³ And in that day you shall ask nothing of me; verily, verily I say to you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give you. ²⁴ Till this time you have asked for nothing in my name; ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be full. ²⁵ These things I have spoken to you in parables; the time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in parables, but will teach you plainly concerning the Father. ²⁶ In that day you shall ask in my name; and I say not to you, that I will ask the Father in your behalf; ²⁷ for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came forth from God. ²⁸ I came forth from the Father, and have come into the world: again I leave the world, and go to the Father. ²⁹ His disciples said to him: Lo, now thou speakest plainly, and speakest no parable. ³⁰ Now we know that thou knowest all things, and hast no need that any one should ask thee. By this we believe that thou hast come forth from God. ³¹ Jesus answered them: Do you now believe? ³² Behold, the hour is coming, and has now come, in which you shall be scattered, each one to his own home, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. ³³ These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have affliction, but be of good courage; I have overcome the world.
