John 7:29-17:26 But I know him; for I am from him, and he sent me.

JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁹ But I know him; for I am from him, and he sent me. ³⁰ Then sought they to seize him: and none put the hand upon him, for his hour had not yet come. ³¹ And many of the crowd believed on him, and said, That Christ, when he should come, will he do more signs than these which he did? ³² The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things of him; and the Pharisees and chief priests sent servants that they might seize him. ³³ Then said Jesus to them, Yet a little time am I with you, and I retire to him having sent me. ³⁴ And ye shall seek me and shall not find: and where I am, ye cannot come. ³⁵ Then said the Jews among themselves, Where is he about to go, that we shall not find him? is he not about to go to the dispersion of the Greeks, and teach the Greeks? ³⁶ What is the word which he spake, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find: and where I am, ye cannot come? ³⁷ In the last day, the great one of the festival, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any thirst, let him come to me, and drink. ³⁸ He believing in me, as said the writing, from his belly shall flow rivers of living waters. ³⁹ (This spake he of the Spirit which they believing in him were about to receive: for the Holy Spirit was not yet; for Jesus was not yet honoured.) ⁴⁰ Then many of the crowd, having heard the word, said, This is truly a prophet. ⁴¹ Others said, This is Christ: and others said, Yet Christ comes not out of Galilee. ⁴² Said not the writing, That of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the town where David was, Christ comes? ⁴³ Then was there a division in the crowd on his account. ⁴⁴ And some of them wished to seize him; but none put hands upon him. ⁴⁵ Then came the servants to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said to them, Why did ye not bring him ⁴⁶ And the servants answered, Never spake man as this man. ⁴⁷ Then the Pharisees answered them, Have ye not also been deceived ⁴⁸ Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him? ⁴⁹ But the crowd, not knowing the law, are cursed. ⁵⁰ Nicodemus says to them, (he having come to him by night, being one of them,) ⁵¹ Our law judges not a man, except it first hear from him, and know what he does. ⁵² They answered and said to him, And art thou not of Galilee? Search, and see: for a prophet has not risen out of Galilee. ⁵³ And each man went to his house. ⁸ ¹ And Jesus went to the mount of Olives. ² And again in the morning he was present in the temple, and all the people came to him; and having sat down, he taught them. ³ And the scribes and Pharisees brought him a woman taken in adultery; and having set her in the midst, ⁴ They say to him, Teacher, this woman was taken committing adultery, in the very act. ⁵ In the law Moses commanded us such to be stoned: therefore what sayest thou? ⁶ And this said they, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. And Jesus, having stooped down, wrote with his fingers upon the earth. ⁷ And when they continued asking him, having lifted up the head, he said to them, Let him faultless among you, first cast a stone at her. ⁸ And again having stooped down, he wrote upon the earth. ⁹ And they having heard, and being convicted by consciousness, went out one by one, beginning from the eldest even to the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. ¹⁰ And Jesus having lifted up the head, and seen none but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are they accusing thee? has none condemned thee ¹¹ And she said, None, Lord. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. ¹² Again therefore Jesus spake to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he following me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. ¹³ Then said the Pharisees to him, Thou testifiest of thyself; thy testimony is not true. ¹⁴ Jesus answered and said to them. Though I testify of myself; my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and where I retire; but ye know not whence I came and where I retire. ¹⁵ Ye judge according to the flesh; I judge no one. ¹⁶ And if I also judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father having sent me. ¹⁷ And also in your law has it been written, that the testimony of two men is true. ¹⁸ I am he testifying of myself, and the Father having sent me testifies of me. ¹⁹ Then said they to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye had known my Father also. ²⁰ These words spake Jesus in the royal treasury, teaching in the temple: and no one seized him; for his hour had not yet come. ²¹ Then said Jesus again to them, I retire, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: where I retire, ye cannot come. ²² Then said the Jews, Will he not kill himself? for he says, Where I retire, ye cannot come. ²³ And he said to them, Ye are from below I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. ²⁴ I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am, ye shall die in your sins. ²⁵ Then said they to him, Who art thou? And Jesus said to them, In the beginning, he which I spake to you. ²⁶ Many things have I to speak and judge of you; but he having sent me is true; and what things I have heard from him these say I to the world. ²⁷ They knew not that he spake to them of the Father. ²⁸ Then said Jesus to them, When ye lift up the Son of man then shall ye know that I am, and I do nothing of myself; but as my Father taught me, these I speak. ²⁹ And he having sent me is with me: the Father has not left me alone; for I do always things pleasing to him. ³⁰ He speaking these, many believed in him. ³¹ Then said Jesus to the Jews having believed him, If ye remain in my word, ye are truly my disciples. ³² And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. ³³ They answered him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never served any; how sayest thou, That ye shall be free? ³⁴ Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, say I to you, That every one doing sin, is servant of sin. ³⁵ And the servant remains not in the house forever; the Son remains forever. ³⁶ If the Son make you free, ye shall be truly free. ³⁷ I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, for my word has no place in you. ³⁸ I, what I have seen from my Father, speak: and ye, therefore, what ye have seen of your Father, do. ³⁹ They answered and said to him, Abraham is our Father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye had done Abraham's works. ⁴⁰ And now ye seek to kill me, a man who has spoken to you the truth, which I heard from God: this did not Abraham. ⁴¹ Ye do the works of your father. Then said they to him, We have not been born of fornication; for we have one Father, God. ⁴² Then said Jesus to them, If God were your Father, ye had loved me: for I went forth from God, and came; for I have not come of myself, but he sent me. ⁴³ Wherefore ye know not my speech, for ye cannot hear my word. ⁴⁴ Ye are of your father the devil, and the eager desires of your father will ye do. He was slaying men from the beginning, and stood not in the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he would speak a lie, he speaks of his own things; for he is a liar, and the father of him. ⁴⁵ And because I say the truth, ye believe me not. ⁴⁶ Which of you convicts me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me. ⁴⁷ He being of God hears the words of God: therefore ye hear not, for ye are not of God. ⁴⁸ Then answered the Jews, and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon? ⁴⁹ Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me. ⁵⁰ And I seek not my glory: there is he seeking and judging. ⁵¹ Truly, truly, I say to you, If any keep my word, he should never see death. ⁵² Then said the Jews to him, Now we have known that thou hast a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If any keep my word, he shall never taste of death. ⁵³ Thou art not greater than our father Abraham, who died; and the prophets died: whom makest thou thyself? ⁵⁴ Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father honouring me; whom ye say, that he is your God: ⁵⁵ And ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like you: but I know him, and keep his word. ⁵⁶ Your father Abraham was overjoyed that he might see my day: and he saw, and rejoiced. ⁵⁷ Then said the Jews to him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and hast thou seen Abraham ⁵⁸ And Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Before Abraham was born, I am. ⁵⁹ Then lifted up they stones that they might cast upon him: and Jesus was hid, and he went forth out of the temple, having passed through the midst of them, and so he passed by. ⁹ ¹ And passing by, he saw a man blind from birth. ² And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, he, or his parents, that he was born blind? ³ Jesus answered, Neither did this sin, nor his parents: but that the works of God might be manifested in him. ⁴ I must work the works of him having sent me, while it is day: night comes, when none can work. ⁵ While I be in the world, I am the light of the world. ⁶ Having said these, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and rubbed the clay upon the eyes of the blind, ⁷ And said to him, Retire, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is interpreted, Sent.) He went away therefore, and washed, and came seeing. ⁸ Then the neighbors, and those seeing him before that he was blind, said, Is not this he sitting and begging? ⁹ Others said, This is he: and others, That he is like him: he said, That I am. ¹⁰ Then said they to him, How were thine eyes opened? ¹¹ He answered and said, A man called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said to me, Retire to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and having gone and washed, I saw again. ¹² Then said they to him, Where is he? He says I know not. ¹³ They bring him to the Pharisees, him once blind. ¹⁴ And it was the sabbath, when Jesus made clay, and opened his eyes. ¹⁵ Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he saw again. He said to them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and I see. ¹⁶ Then said certain of the Pharisees, This man is not from God, for he keeps not the sabbath. Others said, How can a sinful man do such signs? And a division was among them. ¹⁷ They say to the blind again, What sayest thou of him, for he opened thine eyes? He said, That he is a prophet. ¹⁸ Then the Jews believed not of him that he was blind, and saw again, until they called the parents of him having looked up. ¹⁹ And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, whom ye say that be was born blind how then does be 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 has age; ask him: he shall speak for himself. ²² These said his parents, for they feared the Jews: for already had the Jews agreed, that if any should acknowledge him Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. ²³ Therefore said his parents, That he has age; ask him. ²⁴ Then called they the man of a second time, who was blind, and said to him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is sinful. ²⁵ He answered and said, If he be sinful, I know not: one thing I know, that, being blind, now I see. ²⁶ And again said they to him, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes? ²⁷ He answered them, I told you already, and ye heard not: why wish ye to hear again? ye wish not also to be his disciples? ²⁸ Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples. ²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses; but this, we know not whence he is. ³⁰ The man answered and said to them, For in this is it wonderful, that ye know not whence he is, and he opened mine eyes. ³¹ And we know that God hears not the sinful: but if any be godly, and do his will, this he hears. ³² From forever was it not heard that any opened the eyes of him born blind. ³³ If this one were not of God, he could do nothing. ³⁴ They answered and said to him, In sins wert thou wholly born, and teachest thou us? And they cast him without. ³⁵ Jesus heard that they cast him without; and having found him, said to him, Believest thou in the Son of God? ³⁶ He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe in him? ³⁷ And Jesus said to him, Thou hast also seen him, and he speaking with thee, the same is he. ³⁸ And he said I believe, Lord. And he worshipped him. ³⁹ And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world, that they not seeing might see; and they seeing might be blind. ⁴⁰ And they being with him of the Pharisees heard these things, and said to him, ⁴¹ We are not also blind? Jesus said to them If ye were blind, ye had not sinned: and now ye say, That we see; therefore your sin remains. ¹⁰ ¹ Truly, truly, I say to you, He not coming in through the door into the court-yard of the sheep, but coming up from another place, he is a thief and robber. ² And he coming in through the door is the shepherd of the sheep. ³ To him the guard of the door opens; and the sheep hear his voice : and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. ⁴ And when he would put forth his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. ⁵ And a stranger they would not follow, but they will flee from him : for they know not the voice of strangers. ⁶ This proverb spake Jesus to then: and they knew not what things they were which he spake th them. ⁷ Then said Jesus again to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, That I am the door of the sheep. ⁸ All who came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep heard them not. ⁹ I am the door: if any come in through me, he shall be saved, and he shall me in, and go out, and find pasture. ¹⁰ The thief comes not, except that he steal, and sacrifice, and destroy: I came that they might have life, and have above measure. ¹¹ I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. ¹² But the hired one, and not being the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and he leaves the sheep, and flees: and the wolf plunders them, and scatters the sheep. ¹³ The hired flees, because he is hired, and no care is to him for the sheep. ¹⁴ I am the good shepherd, and I know mine, 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 I have, other sheep, which are not of this court-yard: and I must also bring them, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, and one shepherd. ¹⁷ Therefore does my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. ¹⁸ No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command received I of my Father. ¹⁹ Then was a division again among the Jews for these words. ²⁰ And many of them said, He has a demon, and is frenzied; why hear ye him? ²¹ Others said, These are not the words of a demon. A demon cannot open the eyes of the blind. ²² And there was the festival of inauguration among the Jerusalemites, and it was winter.. ²³ And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. ²⁴ Then the Jews surrounded him, and said to him, How long takest thou away our soul? If thou art Christ, say to us with freedom of speech. ²⁵ Jesus answered them, I said to you, and ye believe not: the works which I do in my Father's name, these testify of me. ²⁶ But ye believe not, for ye 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 snatch them out of my hand. ²⁹ My Father, who has given to me, is greater than all; . and no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. ³⁰ I and my Father are one. ³¹ Then again lifted up the Jews stones that they might stone him. ³² Jesus Answered them, Many good works I shewed you from my Father; for which of these works do ye stone me ³³ The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and that thou, being man, makest thyself God. ³⁴ Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said; Ye are gods? ³⁵ If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came, and the writing cannot be loosed; ³⁶ Whom the Father consecrated., and sent into the world, say ye that thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God ³⁷ If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. ³⁸ And if I do, though ye believe me not, believe the works: that ye might know, and believe, that the Father in me, and I in him. ³⁹ Then sought they again to take him: and he went out from their hand, ⁴⁰ And again he departed beyond Jordan to the place where John was first immersing; and he remained there. ⁴¹ And many came to him, and said, That truly John did no sign: but all which John said of him was true. ⁴² And many believed in him there. ¹¹ ¹ And a certain Lazarus was sick, from Bethany, of the town of Mary And Martha her sister. ² (And Mary was she having anointed the Lord with perfumed oil, and wiped his feet with her hairs, whose brother Lazarus was sick.) ³ Then sent the sisters to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. ⁴ And Jesus having heard, said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that by it the Son of God be honoured. ⁵ And Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. ⁶ When therefore he heard that he is sick, then indeed he remained in the place in which he was two days. ⁷ Then after this he says to his disciples, Let us go into Judea again. ⁸ The disciples say to him, Rabbi, now the Jews sought to stone thee; and retirest thou there again? ⁹ Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours of the day.? If any walk in the day, he stumbles not, for he sees the light of this world. ¹⁰ But if any walk in the night, he stumbles, for light is not in him. ¹¹ These things said he: and after this he says to them, Lazarus our friend has been set to sleep; but I go, that I might waken him. ¹² Then said his disciples, Lord, if he has been set to sleep, he shall be saved. ¹³ And Jesus spake of his death: but these supposed that he speaks of the repose of sleep. ¹⁴ Then therefore Jesus said to them with freedom of speech, Lazarus is dead. ¹⁵ And I rejoice for you, that ye might believe, that I was not there; but let us go to him. ¹⁶ Then said Thomas, called Didymus, to his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we might die with him. ¹⁷ Then Jesus, having come, found him having four days already in the tomb. ¹⁸ And Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia. ¹⁹ And many of the Jews were come to them about Martha and Many, that they might console them for their brother. ²⁰ Then Martha, when she heard that Jesus comes, met him: and Mary sat in the house. ²¹ Then said Martha to Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. ²² But now I also know, that whatever thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee. ²³ Jesus says to her, Thy brother shall arise. ²⁴ Martha says to him, I know that he shall rise at the rising up in the last day. ²⁵ Jesus said to her, I am the rising up, and life: he believing in me, though he die, shall live. ²⁶ And all living and believing in me should never die. Believest thou this? ²⁷ She says to him, Yes, Lord: I have believed that thou art Christ, the Son of God, he coming into the world. ²⁸ And having said these, she departed and called Mary her sister secretly, having said, The Teacher is come, and calls thee. ²⁹ She, when she heard, arises quickly, and comes to him. ³⁰ And Jesus had not yet come into the town, but was in the place where Martha met him. ³¹ Then the Jews being in the house with her, and consoling her, having seen Mary, that she rose quickly and went forth, followed her, saying, That she retires to the tomb, that she might weep there. ³² Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was, seeing him, fell at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if thou wert here, my brother had not died. ³³ Then Jesus, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping having come with her, was heavy in spirit, and troubled himself, ³⁴ And said, Where have ye laid him? They say to him, Lord, come and see. ³⁵ Jesus wept. ³⁶ Then said the Jews, See how he loved him I ³⁷ And certain of them said, Could not he having opened the eyes of the blind, have made that this should not die? ³⁸ Then Jesus again being heavy in himself, comes to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was laid upon it. ³⁹ Jesus says, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, says to him, Lord, he already smells: for it is the fourth day. ⁴⁰ Jesus says to her, Said I not to thee, if thou shouldest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God ⁴¹ Then took they away the stone where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes above, and said, Father, I return thee thanks that thou didst hear me. ⁴² And I knew that thou always hearest me: but for the crowd standing round I said, that they might believe that thou didst send me. ⁴³ And having said these, he cried out with a great voice, Lazarus, come out. ⁴⁴ And the dead came out, bound feet and hands with bandages; and his face was bound with a napkin. Jesus says to them, Loose him, and let him retire. ⁴⁵ Then many of the Jews, having come to Mary, and seeing what Jesus did, believed in him. ⁴⁶ But certain of them departed to the Pharisees, and said to them what Jesus did. ⁴⁷ Then gathered together the chief priests and Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man does many signs. ⁴⁸ If we let him thus go, all will believe on him: and the Romans will come and take away also our place and nation. ⁴⁹ And a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being chief priest that year, said to them, Ye know nothing, ⁵⁰ Neither turn ye in your thoughts that it is profitable to us, that one man die for the people, and the nation perish not. ⁵¹ And this he said not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation; ⁵² And not for the nation alone, but that also the children of God, scattered, should be gathered into one. ⁵³ Then from that day they counselled together that they might kill him. ⁵⁴ Jesus then walked no more with freedom of speech among the Jews; but departed thence to the country near the desert, to a city called Ephraim, and there he tarried with his disciples. ⁵⁵ And the Jews' pascha was near: and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the pascha, that they might purify themselves. ⁵⁶ Then sought they Jesus, and said with one another, standing in the temple, What seems it to you, that he should not come to the festival ⁵⁷ And also the chief priests and Pharisees had given a command, that if any know where he is, he should make known, that they might take him. ¹² ¹ Then Jesus, six days before the pascha, came to Bethany, where was Lazarus the dead, whom he raised from the dead. ² Then made they him a supper there, and Martha served; and Lazarus was one of them reclining at table with him. ³ Then Mary having taken a pound of perfumed oil of spikenard, very precious, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hairs: and the house was filled with the smell of the perfumed oil. ⁴ Then says one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, of Simon, being about to deliver him up, ⁵ Wherefore was not this perfumed oil sold for three hundred drachmas, and given to the poor? ⁶ And this he said, not that care was to him for the poor: but because he was a thief, and had the small coffer, and carried things deposited. ⁷ Then said Jesus, Let her go; for the day of my interment has she kept this. ⁸ For the poor have ye always with you;and me ye have not always. ⁹ Then a great crowd of Jews knew that he is there: and they came not for Jesus alone, but that also they might see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. ¹⁰ And the chief priests took counsel that they might also kill Lazarus; ¹¹ Because many for him retired, and believed in Jesus. ¹² The morrow a great crowd, having come to the festival, having heard that Jesus comes to Jerusalem, ¹³ Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to the meeting to him, and cried, Praised he coming in the name of the Lord, King of Israel. ¹⁴ And Jesus having found a small ass, sat upon it; as it is written, ¹⁵ Fear not, O daughter of Sion: behold, thy King comes, sitting upon the foal of an ass. ¹⁶ And these the disciples knew not at first: but when Jesus was honoured, then remembered they that these were written of him, and they did these things to him. ¹⁷ The crowd therefore testified which being with him, that he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead. ¹⁸ And for this the crowd met him, for they heard he had done this sign. ¹⁹ Then said the Pharisees among themselves, Ye see that ye aid nothing; behold, the world has departed after him. ²⁰ And there were certain Greeks of those going up that they might worship in the festival: ²¹ These then came to Philip, him of Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Lord, we wish to see Jesus. ²² Philip comes and says to Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip say to Jesus. ²³ And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour has come, that the Son of man should be honoured. ²⁴ Truly, truly, I say to you, except a kernel of wheat, having fallen into the earth, should die, it remains alone: and if it should die, it brings forth much fruit. ²⁵ He loving his soul shall lose it; but he hating his soul in this world, shall guard it for life eternal. ²⁶ If any one would serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall be my servant: and if any one serve me, him will the Father honour. ²⁷ Now has my soul been troubled; and what should I say? O Father, save me from this hour: but for this came I to this hour. ²⁸ Father, honour thy name. Then came a voice from heaven, I have also honoured, and will again honour. ²⁹ Then the crowd, having stood and heard, said it was thunder: others said, A messenger has spoken to him. ³⁰ Jesus answered and said, This voice has not been for me, but for you. ³¹ Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the ruler of this world be cast out. ³² And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all to myself. ³³ This said he, signifying what death he was about to die. ³⁴ The crowd answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ remains forever: and how sayest thou That the Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? ³⁵ Then said Jesus to them, Yet a little time the light is with you. Walk while ye have light, lest darkness overtake you: and he walking in darkness knows not where he retires. ³⁶ While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye might be the sons of light. These things spake Jesus, and having departed, he was hid from them. ³⁷ And he having done so many signs before them, they did not believe in him: ³⁸ That the word of Esaias the prophet might be completed, which he spake, Lord, who believed our report? and to whom was the arm of the Lord revealed? ³⁹ Therefore they could not believe, for Esaias said again, ⁴⁰ He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart: lest they see with the eyes, and understand with the heart, and should turn back, and I should heal them. ⁴¹ These said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him. ⁴² Yet nevertheless also many of the rulers believed in him; but on account of the Pharisees they did not acknowledge, lest they should be excluded from the synagogue: ⁴³ For they loved the honour of men more than the honour of God. ⁴⁴ Jesus cried and said, He believing in me, believes not in me, but in him having sent me. ⁴⁵ And he seeing me, sees him having sent me. ⁴⁶ I have come a light into the world, that every one believing in me should not remain in darkness. ⁴⁷ And if any hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world. ⁴⁸ He rejecting me, and not receiving my words, has him judging him: the word which I spake, that shall judge him in the last day. ⁴⁹ For I spake not of myself; but the Father having sent me, he gave me a command, what I should say, and what I should speak. ⁵⁰ And I know that his command is life eternal: therefore what I speak, as the Father said to me, so I speak. ¹³ ¹ And before the feast of the pascha, Jesus knowing that his hour had come that he should pass out of this world to the Father, having loved his own in the world, he loved them to the end. ² And supper having been, the devil having already cast into the heart of Judas Iscariot, of Simon, that he should deliver him up; ³ Jesus knowing that the Father has given all things to him into the hands, and that he came out from God, and retired to God; ⁴ He arises from supper, and lays down the garments; and having taken a linen cloth, he girded himself. ⁵ Then casts he water into a washing vessel, and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe with the linen cloth with which he was girded. ⁶ And he comes to Simon Peter: and he says to him, Lord, washest thou my feet? ⁷ Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know after these. ⁸ Peter says to him, Thou shouldest never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Except I wash thee, thou hast no part with me. ⁹ Simon Peter says to him, Lord, not my feet only, but the hands and head. ¹⁰ Jesus says to him, He washed has no need but to have the feet washed, but is wholly clean: and ye are clean, but not all. ¹¹ For he knew him delivering him up, therefore he said, Ye are not all clean. ¹² When therefore he washed their feet; and took his garments, going to recline again, he said to them, Knew ye what I have done to you? ¹³ Ye call one Teacher and Lord: and ye say well; for I am. ¹⁴ If therefore, I washed your feet, the Lord and Teacher; ye also ought to wash the feet of one another: ¹⁵ For I have given you a pattern, as I have done to you, also should ye do. ¹⁶ Truly, truly I say to you The servant is not greater than his Lord; neither the sent greater than he having sent him. ¹⁷ If ye know these, happy are ye if ye do them. ¹⁸ I say not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the writing might be completed, He chewing bread with me lifted up his heel against me. ¹⁹ From now I say to you before it shall be, that, when it should be, ye might believe that I am. ²⁰ Truly, truly, I say to you, He receiving whomsoever I shall send receives me; and he receiving me receives him having sent me. ²¹ These things Jesus having spoken, was troubled in spirit, and he testified, and said, Truly, truly, I say to you, that one of you shall deliver me up. ²² Then looked the disciples one upon another, being perplexed of whom he spake. ²³ And there was one of his disciples reclining on the bosom of Jesus, whom he loved. ²⁴ Then Simon Peter nodded to this one, to inquire who it might be of whom he speaks. ²⁵ And he reclining upon Jesus' breast says to him, Lord, who is it? ²⁶ Jesus answers, This is he to whom I, having dipped a small morsel, shall bestow. And having dipped the small morsel, he gives to Judas Iscariot, of Simon. ²⁷ And after the small morsel then came Satan into him. Then says Jesus to him, What thou doest, do quickly. ²⁸ And this none of the reclining knew for what he said to him. ²⁹ For some thought, since Judas had the small coffer, that Jesus says to him, Purchase of what we have need for the festival; or, that he might give something to the poor. ³⁰ He having taken the small morsel went quickly forth: and it was night when he then went forth. ³¹ Jesus says, Now was the Son of man honoured, and God was honoured in him. ³² If God were honoured in him, also shall God honour him in himself, and quickly shall he honour him. ³³ Little children, yet a little am I with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said to the Jews, That where I retire, ye cannot come; and I say to you now. ³⁴ A new command give I to you, That ye love one another: as I loved you, that ye also love one another. ³⁵ In this all shall know that ye are disciples to me, if ye have love in one another. ³⁶ Simon Peter says to him, Lord, where retirest thou? Jesus answered him, Where I retire, thou shalt not be able to follow me now; and afterwards thou shalt follow me. ³⁷ Peter says to him, Lord, why can I not follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee. ³⁸ Jesus answered, Wilt thou lay down thy life for me Truly, truly, I say to thee, The cock shall not utter a sound, till thou deny me thrice. ¹⁴ ¹ Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, and believe in me. ² In my Father's house are many dwellings: and if not, I had said to you. I go to prepare a place for you. ³ And if I go and prepare a place for you, again I come, and I will receive you to myself; that where I am, ye might be also. ⁴ And where I retire ye know, and the way ye know. ⁵ Thomas says to him, Lord, we know not where thou retirest; and how can we know the way? ⁶ Jesus says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father, except by me. ⁷ If ye had known me, ye had also known my Father: and from now ye know, and have seen him. ⁸ Philip says to him, Lord, show us the Father, and it suffices us. ⁹ Jesus says, to him, So long time am I with you, and hast thou not known me, Philip? he having seen me has seen the Father; and how sayest thou, Show us the Father?, ¹⁰ Believest thou not that I in the Father, and the Father is in me? the words which I speak to you, I speak not of myself: and the Father remaining in me does the works. ¹¹ Believe ye me that I in the Father, and the Father in me: and if not, for these works believe me. ¹² Truly, truly, I say to you, He believing in me, the works which I do shall he do also; and greater than these shall he do; for I go to my Father. ¹³ And whatever ye ask in my name, this will I do, that the Father might be honoured by the Son. ¹⁴ If ye ask anything in my name, I will do. ¹⁵ If ye love me, keep my commands. ¹⁶ And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Intercessor, that should remain with you forever; ¹⁷ The Spirit of truth; which the world cannot receive, for it sees it not, neither knows: and ye know it; for it shall remain with you, and shall be in you. ¹⁸ I will not leave you orphans; I come to you. ¹⁹ Yet a little, and the world sees me no more; and ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. ²⁰ In that day shall ye know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. ²¹ He having my commands, and keeping them, the same is he loving me: and he loving me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and manifest myself to him. ²² Judas says to him, not Iscariot, Lord, how has it been that thou art about to make thyself manifest to us, and not to the world? ²³ Jesus answered and said to him, If any one love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and we will make our stay with him. ²⁴ He not loving me will not keep my words.: and the word which ye hear is not of me, but of the Father having sent me. ²⁵ These have I spoken to you, remaining with you. ²⁶ But the Intercessor, the Holy Spirit, which the Father will send in my name, the same shall teach you all things, and he shall remind you of all things which I spake to you. ²⁷ Peace I leave to you, my peace I give to you: not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be timid. ²⁸ Ye have heard that I said to you, I retire, and I am coming to you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice because I said, I go to the Father: for my Father is greater than I. ²⁹ And now have I told you before it shall be, that when it should be, ye might believe. ³⁰ I will no more speak much with you: for the ruler of this world comes, and has nothing in me. ³¹ But that the world might know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, so I do. Arise ye, let us go thence. ¹⁵ ¹ I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. ² Every branch in me not bearing fruit he takes away: and every one bearing fruit, he cleanses it, that it might bear more fruit. ³ Already are ye clean, through the word which I have spoken to you. ⁴ Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, if it remain not in the vine; so neither ye, if ye remain not in me. ⁵ I am the vine, ye the branches: he remaining in me, and I in him, he bears much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. ⁶ If any remain not in me, he was cast forth as the branch, and was dried up; and they gather them together, and cast into the fire, and they are burned. ⁷ If ye remain in me, and my words remain in you, ye shall ask whatever ye wish, and it shall be to you. ⁸ In this was my Father honoured, that ye should bear much fruit: and ye shall be disciples to me. ⁹ As the Father loved me, I also loved you: remain in my love. ¹⁰ If ye keep my commands, ye shall remain in my love; as I have kept my Father's commands, and remain in his love. ¹¹ These things have I spoken to you, that my joy might remain in you, and your joy might be completed. ¹² This is my command, That ye love one another, as I loved you. ¹³ Greater love than this has none, that any lay down his life for his friends. ¹⁴ Ye are my friends, if ye do whatever I command you. ¹⁵ I no more call you servants; for the servant knows not what his lord does: and I have called you friends; for all which I heard of my Father I made known to you. ¹⁶ Ye chose not me, but I chose you, and I have set you, that ye might retire and bear fruit, and your fruit remain: that whatever ye ask the Father in my name, he might give you. ¹⁷ These things I command you, that ye love one another. ¹⁸ If the world hate you, know that it has hated me the first of you. ¹⁹ If ye were of the world, the world had loved its own: and because ye 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 said to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they expelled me, they will also expel you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. ²¹ But all these will they do to you for my name, for they know not him having sent me. ²² If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not sin and now they have no pretext for their sin. ²³ He hating me hates my Father also. ²⁴ If I did not the works in them which none other has done, they had not sin: and now have they also seen and hated also me and my Father. ²⁵ But that the word written in their law might be completed, That they hated me gratuitously. ²⁶ And when the Intercessor should come, which I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, which comes from the Father, he shall testify of me: ²⁷ And ye also testify, for ye are with me from the beginning. ¹⁶ ¹ These have I spoken, that ye should not be offended. ² They shall make you excluded from the synagogue: but the hour comes that every one having slain you should think to bring service to God. ³ And these things shall they do to you, for they know not the Father, nor me. ⁴ But these have I spoken to you, that when the hour should come, ye should remember them, for I said to you. And these I said not to you from the beginning, for I was with you. ⁵ But now do I retire to him having sent me; and not one of you asks me, Where dost thou retire ⁶ But because I have spoken these to you, sorrow has filled your heart. ⁷ But I say the truth to you; it is profitable to you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Intercessor shall not come to you; and if I go, I will send him to you. ⁸ And having come, he will convict the world of sin, and of justice, and of judgment: ⁹ Truly of sin, because they believe not in me; ¹⁰ And of justice, because I retire to my Father, and ye see me no more; ¹¹ And of judgment, for the ruler of this world has been judged. ¹² I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now. ¹³ And when he should come, the Spirit of truth, he shall guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatever he should hear, shall he speak: and he shall announce to you the things coming. ¹⁴ He shall honour me: for he shall take of mine, and announce to you. ¹⁵ All things which the Father has are mine: therefore said I, he shall take of mine, and announce to you. ¹⁶ A little while, and ye see me not: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, and because I retire to the Father. ¹⁷ Then said of his disciples to one another, What is this which he says to you, A little, and ye see me not: and again, a little, and ye shall see me: and, Because I retire to my Father? ¹⁸ Then said they, What is this which he says, A little we know not what he says. ¹⁹ Then knew Jesus that they wished to ask him, and he said to them, For this seek ye with one another that I said, A little while, and ye see me not; and again a little, and ye shall see me ²⁰ Truly, truly, I say to you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be grieved, but your grief shall be into joy. ²¹ A woman when she should bring forth, has grief, because her hour has come: and when the child should be born, she no more remembers the anguish, for the joy that a man was born into the world. ²² And where truly ye now have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one takes away from you. ²³ And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Truly, truly, I say to you, That whatever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give you. ²⁴ Until now ye have asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy might be completed. ²⁵ These have I spoken to you in proverbs: but the hour comes, when I shall no more speak to you in proverbs, but with freedom of speech will I announce to you of the Father. ²⁶ In that day shall ye ask in my name: and I say not to you that I will ask the Father for you: ²⁷ For the Father himself loves you, for ye have loved me, and 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 say to him, See, now thou speakest with freedom of speech, and sayest no proverb. ³⁰ Now we know that thou knowest all things, and hast no need that any ask thee: by this we believe that thou earnest forth from God. ³¹ Jesus answered them, Now do ye believe? ³² Behold, the hour comes, and has now come, that ye be scattered, each to his own, and leave me alone: and I am not alone, for the Father is with me. ³³ These have I spoken to you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world shall ye have pressure; but take courage; I have conquered the world. ¹⁷ ¹ These spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour has come; honour thy Son, that thy Son honour thee: ² As thou gavest him the power of all flesh, that every one which thou hast given him, he should give to them eternal life. ³ And this is eternal life, that they might know thee the only true God, and whom thou hast sent, Jesus Christ. ⁴ I honoured thee upon earth: I finished the work which thou hast given me that I should do. ⁵ And now, honour thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the honour which I had with thee before the world was. ⁶ I manifested thy name to the men which thou hast given me from the world: they were to thee, and thou hast given them to me; and they have kept thy word. ⁷ Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. ⁸ For the words which thou hast given me, I have given them and they received, and knew in truth that I came out from thee, and they believed that thou sentest me. ⁹ I ask for them: I ask not for the world, but for them thou hast given me: for they are to thee. ¹⁰ And all my things are thine, and thine mine; and I have been honoured in them. ¹¹ And I am no more in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. O holy Father, keep them in thy name whom thou but given me, that they might be one, as we. ¹² When I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those thou hast given me I watched, and not one of them perished, except the son of perdition; that the writing might be completed. ¹³ And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that I might have my joy completed in them. ¹⁴ I have given them thy word; and the world hated them, for they are not of the world, as I am not of the world. ¹⁵ I ask not that thou take them out of the world, but that thou keep them from the evil. ¹⁶ They are not of the world, as I am not of the world. ¹⁷ Render them holy in thy truth: thy word is truth. ¹⁸ As thou sentest me into the world, I also sent them into the world. ¹⁹ And for them I render myself holy, that they also be rendered holy in the truth; ²⁰ And I ask not for these alone, but also for them believing in me through their word; ²¹ That all might be one; as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee, that they also be one in us; that the world might believe that thou sentest me. ²² And I, the honour which thou hast given me, have-given them; that they might be one, as we are one. ²³ I in them, and thou in me, that they might be perfected in one: and that the world might know that thou sentest me, and lovedst them, as thou lovedst me. ²⁴ O Father, those thou hast given me, I will that where I am these also be with me: that they might behold my glory, which thou gavest me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. ²⁵ O just Father, the world knew thee not: but I knew thee, and these knew that thou didst send me. ²⁶ And I made known to them thy name, and I will make known: that the love with which thou lovedst me might be in them, and I in them.
