The Gospel According To John
1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and
the Word was with God, and the
Word
was God.
1:2 The same was in the beginning with
God.
1:3 All things were made by him; and
outside him was not any thing
made
that was made.
1:4 In him was life; and the life was
the light of men.
1:5 And the light shines in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it
not.
1:6 There was a man sent from God, whose
name was John.
1:7 The same came for a witness, to bear
witness of the Light, that
all
men through him might believe.
1:8 He was not that Light, but was sent
to bear witness of that Light.
1:9 That was the true Light, which lights
every man that comes into
the
world.
1:10 He was in the world, and the world
was made by him, and the world
knew him not.
1:11 He came unto his own, and his own
received him not.
1:12 But as many as received him, to
them gave he power to become the
sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
1:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor
of the will of the flesh, nor
of the will of man, but of God.
1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and
dwelled among us, (and we beheld
his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of
grace and truth.
1:15 John bore witness of him, and cried,
saying, This was he of whom
I spoke, He that comes after me is preferred before me: for he was
before me.
1:16 And of his fullness have all we
received, and grace for grace.
1:17 For the law was given by Moses,
but grace and truth came by Jesus
Christ.
1:18 No man has seen God at any time,
the only begotten Son, which is
in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him.
1:19 And this is the record of John,
when the Jews sent priests and
Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you?
1:20 And he confessed, and denied not;
but confessed, I am not the
Christ.
1:21 And they asked him, What then? Are
you Elijah? And he says, I am
not. Are you that prophet? And he answered, No.
1:22 Then said they unto him, Who are
you? that we may give an answer
to them that sent us. What say you of yourself?
1:23 He said, I am the voice of one crying
in the wilderness, Make
straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaiah.
1:24 And they which were sent were of
the Pharisees.
1:25 And they asked him, and said unto
him, Why do you baptize then,
if you be not that Christ, nor Elijah, neither that prophet?
1:26 John answered them, saying, I baptize
with water: but there
stands one among you, whom you know not;
1:27 He it is, who coming after me is
preferred before me, whose
shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
1:28 These things were done in Bethabara
beyond the Jordan, where John
was baptizing.
1:29 The next day John sees Jesus coming
unto him, and says, Behold
the Lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world.
1:30 This is he of whom I said, After
me comes a man which is
preferred before me: for he was before me.
1:31 And I knew him not: but that he
should be made manifest to
Israel, therefore am I come baptizing
with water.
1:32 And John bore record, saying, I
saw the Spirit descending from
heaven like a dove, and it abode upon
him.
1:33 And I knew him not: but he that
sent me to baptize with water,
the same said unto me, Upon whom you
shall see the Spirit descending,
and remaining on him, the same is he
which baptizes with the Holy
Ghost.
1:34 And I saw, and bore record that
this is the Son of God.
1:35 Again the next day after John stood,
and two of his disciples;
1:36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked,
he says, Behold the Lamb of
God!
1:37 And the two disciples heard him
speak, and they followed Jesus.
1:38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them
following, and says unto them,
What do you seek? They said unto him,
Rabbi, (which is to say, being
interpreted, Master,) where do you dwell?
1:39 He says unto them, Come and see.
They came and saw where he
dwelled, and abode with him that day:
for it was about the tenth hour.
1:40 One of the two which heard John
speak, and followed him, was
Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
1:41 He first finds his own brother Simon,
and says unto him, We have
found the Messias, which is, being interpreted,
the Christ.
1:42 And he brought him to Jesus. And
when Jesus beheld him, he said,
You are Simon the son of Jona: you shall
be called Cephas, which is by
interpretation, A stone.
1:43 The day following Jesus would go
forth into Galilee, and finds
Philip, and says unto him, Follow me.
1:44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the
city of Andrew and Peter.
1:45 Philip finds Nathanael, and says
unto him, We have found him, of
whom Moses in the law, and the prophets,
did write, Jesus of Nazareth,
the son of Joseph.
1:46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can
there any good thing come out of
Nazareth? Philip says unto him, Come
and see.
1:47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him,
and says of him, Behold an
Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
1:48 Nathanael says unto him, >From where
know you me? Jesus answered
and said unto him, Before that Philip
called you, when you were under
the fig tree, I saw you.
1:49 Nathanael answered and says unto
him, Rabbi, you are the Son of
God; you are the King of Israel.
1:50 Jesus answered and said unto him,
Because I said unto you, I saw
you under the fig tree, you believe?
you shall see greater things than
these.
1:51 And he says unto him, Truthfully,
truthfully, I say unto you,
Hereafter you shall see heaven open,
and the angels of God ascending
and descending upon the Son of man.
2:1 And the third day there was a marriage
in Cana of Galilee; and the
mother of Jesus was there:
2:2 And both Jesus was called, and his
disciples, to the marriage.
2:3 And when they wanted wine, the mother
of Jesus says unto him, They
have no wine.
2:4 Jesus says unto her, Woman, what
have I to do with you? my hour is
not yet come.
2:5 His mother says unto the servants,
Whatsoever he says unto you, do
it.
2:6 And there were set there six waterpots
of stone, after the manner
of the purifying of the Jews, containing
twenty or thirty gallons
each.
2:7 Jesus says unto them, Fill the waterpots
with water. And they
filled them up to the brim.
2:8 And he says unto them, Draw out now,
and bear unto the governor of
the feast. And they bore it.
2:9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted
the water that was made
wine, and did not know from where it
was: (but the servants which drew
the water knew;) the governor of the
feast called the bridegroom,
2:10 And says unto him, Every man at
the beginning does set forth good
wine; and when men have well drunk, then
that which is worse: but you
have kept the good wine until now.
2:11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus
in Cana of Galilee, and
manifested forth his glory; and his disciples
believed on him.
2:12 After this he went down to Capernaum,
he, and his mother, and his
brothers, and his disciples: and they
continued there not many days.
2:13 And the Jews' passover was at hand,
and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem.
2:14 And found in the temple those that
sold oxen and sheep and doves,
and the changers of money sitting:
2:15 And when he had made a whip of small
cords, he drove them all out
of the temple, and the sheep, and the
oxen; and poured out the
changers' money, and overthrew the tables;
2:16 And said unto them that sold doves,
Take these things hence; make
not my Father's house a house of merchandise.
2:17 And his disciples remembered that
it was written, The zeal of
your house has eaten me up.
2:18 Then answered the Jews and said
unto him, What sign do you show
unto us, seeing that you are doing these
things?
2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them,
Destroy this temple, and in
three days I will raise it up.
2:20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six
years was this temple in
building, and will you rear it up in
three days?
2:21 But he spoke of the temple of his
body.
2:22 When therefore he was risen from
the dead, his disciples
remembered that he had said this unto
them; and they believed the
scripture, and the word which Jesus had
said.
2:23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at
the passover, in the feast day,
many believed in his name, when they
saw the miracles which he did.
2:24 But Jesus did not commit himself
unto them, because he knew all
men,
2:25 And needed not that any should testify
of man: for he knew what
was in man.
3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees,
named Nicodemus, a ruler of the
Jews:
3:2 The same came to Jesus by night,
and said unto him, Rabbi, we know
that you are a teacher come from God:
for no man can do these miracles
that you are doing, unless God be with
him.
3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him,
Truthfully, truthfully, I say
unto you, Unless a man be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom of
God.
3:4 Nicodemus says unto him, How can
a man be born when he is old? can
he enter the second time into his mother's
womb, and be born?
3:5 Jesus answered, Truthfully, truthfully,
I say unto you, Unless a
man be born of water and of the Spirit,
he cannot enter into the
kingdom of God.
3:6 That which is born of the flesh is
flesh; and that which is born
of the Spirit is spirit.
3:7 Marvel not that I said unto you,
You must be born again.
3:8 The wind blows where it chooses,
and you hear the sound of it, but
cannot tell from where it comes, and
to where it goes: so is every one
that is born of the Spirit.
3:9 Nicodemus answered and said unto
him, How can these things be?
3:10 Jesus answered and said unto him,
Are you a master of Israel, and
know not these things?
3:11 Truthfully, Truthfully, I say unto
you, We speak what we do know,
and testify what we have seen; and you
receive not our witness.
3:12 If I have told you earthly things,
and you believe not, how shall
you believe, if I tell you of heavenly
things?
3:13 And no man has ascended up to heaven,
but he that came down from
heaven, even the Son of man which is
in heaven.
3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent
in the wilderness, even so
must the Son of man be lifted up:
3:15 That whosoever believes in him should
not perish, but have
eternal life.
3:16 For God so loved the world, that
he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believes in him should
not perish, but have everlasting
life.
3:17 For God sent not his Son into the
world to condemn the world; but
that the world through him might be saved.
3:18 He that believes on him is not condemned:
but he that believes
not is condemned already, because he
has not believed in the name of
the only begotten Son of God.
3:19 And this is the condemnation, that
light is come into the world,
and men loved darkness rather than light,
because their deeds were
evil.
3:20 For every one that does evil hates
the light, neither comes to
the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
3:21 But he that does truth comes to
the light, that his deeds may be
made manifest, that they are wrought
in God.
3:22 After these things came Jesus and
his disciples into the land of
Judaea; and there he tarried with them,
and baptized.
3:23 And John also was baptizing in Aenon
near to Salim, because there
was much water there: and they came,
and were baptized.
3:24 For John was not yet cast into prison.
3:25 Then there arose a question between
some of John's disciples and
the Jews about purifying.
3:26 And they came unto John, and said
unto him, Rabbi, he that was
with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you
bore witness, behold, the same
baptizes, and all men come to him.
3:27 John answered and said, A man can
receive nothing, unless it be
given him from heaven.
3:28 You yourselves bear me witness,
that I said, I am not the Christ,
but that I am sent before him.
3:29 He that has the bride is the bridegroom:
but the friend of the
bridegroom, which stands and hears him,
rejoices greatly because of
the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore
is fulfilled.
3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
3:31 He that comes from above is above
all: he that is of the earth is
earthly, and speaks of the earth: he
that comes from heaven is above
all.
3:32 And what he has seen and heard,
that he testifies; and no man
receives his testimony.
3:33 He that has received his testimony
has set to his seal that God
is true.
3:34 For he whom God has sent speaks
the words of God: for God gives
not the Spirit by measure unto him.
3:35 The Father loves the Son, and has
given all things into his hand.
3:36 He that believes on the Son has
everlasting life: and he that
believes not the Son shall not see life;
but the wrath of God abides
on him.
4:1 When therefore the LORD knew how
the Pharisees had heard that
Jesus made and baptized more disciples
than John,
4:2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not,
but his disciples,)
4:3 He left Judaea, and departed again
into Galilee.
4:4 And he must needs go through Samaria.
4:5 Then comes he to a city of Samaria,
which is called Sychar, near
to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave
to his son Joseph.
4:6 Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus
therefore, being wearied with
his journey, sat thus on the well: and
it was about the sixth hour.
4:7 There comes a woman of Samaria to
draw water: Jesus says unto her,
Give me to drink.
4:8 (For his disciples were gone away
unto the city to buy food.) 4:9
Then says the woman of Samaria unto him,
How is it that you, being a
Jew, ask drink of me, which am a woman
of Samaria? for the Jews have
no dealings with the Samaritans.
4:10 Jesus answered and said unto her,
If you knew the gift of God,
and who it is that says to you, Give
me to drink; you would have asked
of him, and he would have given you living
water.
4:11 The woman says unto him, Sir, you
have nothing to draw with, and
the well is deep: from where then have
you that living water?
4:12 Are you greater than our father
Jacob, which gave us the well,
and drank of it himself, and his children,
and his cattle?
4:13 Jesus answered and said unto her,
Whosoever drinks of this water
shall thirst again:
4:14 But whosoever drinks of the water
that I shall give him shall
never thirst; but the water that I shall
give him shall be in him a
well of water springing up into everlasting
life.
4:15 The woman says unto him, Sir, give
me this water, that I thirst
not, neither come to here to draw.
4:16 Jesus says unto her, Go, call your
husband, and come to here.
4:17 The woman answered and said, I have
no husband. Jesus said unto
her, You have well said, I have no husband:
4:18 For you have had five husbands;
and he whom you now have is not
your husband: in that said you truly.
4:19 The woman says unto him, Sir, I
perceive that you are a prophet.
4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain;
and you say, that in
Jerusalem is the place where men ought
to worship.
4:21 Jesus says unto her, Woman, believe
me, the hour comes, when you
shall neither in this mountain, nor yet
at Jerusalem, worship the
Father.
4:22 You worship you know not what: we
know what we worship: for
salvation is of the Jews.
4:23 But the hour comes, and now is,
when the true worshipers shall
worship the Father in spirit and in truth:
for the Father seeks such
to worship him.
4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship
him must worship him in
spirit and in truth.
4:25 The woman says unto him, I know
that Messias comes, which is
called Christ: when he is come, he will
tell us all things.
4:26 Jesus says unto her, I that speak
unto you am he.
4:27 And upon this came his disciples,
and marvelled that he talked
with the woman: yet no man said, What
do you seek? or, Why do you talk
with her?
4:28 The woman then left her waterpot,
and went her way into the city,
and says to the men,
4:29 Come, see a man, which told me all
things that ever I did: is not
this the Christ?
4:30 Then they went out of the city,
and came unto him.
4:31 In the meanwhile his disciples prayed
him, saying, Master, eat.
4:32 But he said unto them, I have food
to eat that you know not of.
4:33 Therefore said the disciples one
to another, Has any man brought
him anything to eat?
4:34 Jesus says unto them, My food is
to do the will of him that sent
me, and to finish his work.
4:35 Do you not say, There are yet four
months, and then comes
harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift
up your eyes, and look on the
fields; for they are white already to
harvest.
4:36 And he that reaps receives wages,
and scatters fruit unto life
eternal: that both he that sows and he
that reaps may rejoice
together.
4:37 And herein is that saying true,
One sows, and another reaps.
4:38 I sent you to reap that whereon
you bestowed no labor: other men
labored, and you are entered into their
labors.
4:39 And many of the Samaritans of that
city believed on him for the
saying of the woman, which testified,
He told me all that ever I did.
4:40 So when the Samaritans had come
unto him, they asked him that he
would tarry with them: and he abode there
two days.
4:41 And many more believed because of
his own word; 4:42 And said
unto the woman, Now we believe, not because
of your saying: for we
have heard him ourselves, and know that
this is indeed the Christ, the
Saviour of the world.
4:43 Now after two days he departed from
there, and went into Galilee.
4:44 For Jesus himself testified, that
a prophet has no honor in his
own country.
4:45 Then when he was come into Galilee,
the Galilaeans received him,
having seen all the things that he did
at Jerusalem at the feast: for
they also went unto the feast.
4:46 So Jesus came again into Cana of
Galilee, where he made the water
wine. And there was a certain nobleman,
whose son was sick at
Capernaum.
4:47 When he heard that Jesus was come
out of Judaea into Galilee, he
went unto him, and asked him that he
would come down, and heal his
son: for he was at the point of death.
4:48 Then said Jesus unto him, Unless
you see signs and wonders, you
will not believe.
4:49 The nobleman says unto him, Sir,
come down before my child dies.
4:50 Jesus says unto him, Go your way;
your son lives. And the man
believed the word that Jesus had spoken
unto him, and he went his way.
4:51 And as he was now going down, his
servants met him, and told him,
saying, Your son lives.
4:52 Then inquired he of them the hour
when he began to get well. And
they said unto him, yesterday at the
seventh hour the fever left him.
4:53 So the father knew that it was at
the same hour, in which Jesus
said unto him, Your son lives: and himself
believed, and his whole
house.
4:54 This is again the second miracle
that Jesus did, when he was come
out of Judaea into Galilee.
5:1 After this there was a feast of the
Jews; and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem.
5:2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the
sheep market a pool, which is
called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda,
having five porches.
5:3 In these lay a great multitude of
sick people, of blind, halt,
withered, waiting for the moving of the
water.
5:4 For an angel went down at a certain
time into the pool, and
troubled the water: whosoever then first
after the troubling of the
water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever
disease he had.
5:5 And a certain man was there, which
had an infirmity thirty and
eight years.
5:6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew
that he had been now a long time
in that case, he says unto him, Do you
want be made whole?
5:7 The sick man answered him, Sir, I
have no man, when the water is
troubled, to put me into the pool: but
while I am coming, another
steps down before me.
5:8 Jesus says unto him, Rise, take up
your bed, and walk.
5:9 And immediately the man was made
whole, and took up his bed, and
walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
5:10 The Jews therefore said unto him
that was cured, It is the
sabbath day: it is not lawful for you
to carry your bed.
5:11 He answered them, He that made me
whole, the same said unto me,
Take up your bed, and walk.
5:12 Then asked they him, What man is
that which said unto you, Take
up your bed, and walk?
5:13 And he that was healed knew not
who it was: for Jesus had
conveyed himself away, a multitude being
in that place.
5:14 Afterward Jesus finds him in the
temple, and said unto him,
Behold, you are made whole: sin no more,
lest a worse thing come unto
you.
5:15 The man departed, and told the Jews
that it was Jesus, which had
made him whole.
5:16 And therefore did the Jews persecute
Jesus, and sought to slay
him, because he had done these things
on the sabbath day.
5:17 But Jesus answered them, My Father
works until now, and I work.
5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more
to kill him, because he not
only had broken the sabbath, but said
also that God was his Father,
making himself equal with God.
5:19 Then answered Jesus and said unto
them, Truthfully, truthfully, I
say unto you, The Son can do nothing
of himself, but what he sees the
Father do: for what things soever he
does, these also does the Son
likewise.
5:20 For the Father loves the Son, and
shows him all things that
himself does: and he will show him greater
works than these, that you
may marvel.
5:21 For as the Father raises up the
dead, and gives life to them;
even so the Son gives life to whom he
will.
5:22 For the Father judges no man, but
has committed all judgment unto
the Son:
5:23 That all men should honor the Son,
just as they honor the Father.
He that honors not the Son honors not
the Father which has sent him.
5:24 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, He that hears my word,
and believes on him that sent me, has
everlasting life, and shall not
come into condemnation; but is passed
from death unto life.
5:25 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, The hour is coming, and
now is, when the dead shall hear the
voice of the Son of God: and they
that hear shall live.
5:26 For as the Father has life in himself;
so has he given to the Son
to have life in himself;
5:27 And has given him authority to execute
judgment also, because he
is the Son of man.
5:28 Marvel not at this: for the hour
is coming, in which all that are
in the graves shall hear his voice,
5:29 And shall come forth; they that
have done good, unto the
resurrection of life; and they that have
done evil, unto the
resurrection of damnation.
5:30 I can of my own self do nothing:
as I hear, I judge: and my
judgment is just; because I seek not
my own will, but the will of the
Father which has sent me.
5:31 If I bear witness of myself, my
witness is not true.
5:32 There is another that bears witness
of me; and I know that the
witness which he witnesses of me is true.
5:33 You sent unto John, and he bore
witness unto the truth.
5:34 But I receive not testimony from
man: but these things I say,
that you might be saved.
5:35 He was a burning and a shining light:
and you were willing for a
season to rejoice in his light.
5:36 But I have greater witness than
that of John: for the works which
the Father has given me to finish, the
same works that I do, bear
witness of me, that the Father has sent
me.
5:37 And the Father himself, which has
sent me, has borne witness of
me. You have neither heard his voice
at any time, nor seen his shape.
5:38 And you have not his word abiding
in you: for whom he has sent,
him you believe not.
5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them
you think you have eternal
life: and they are they which testify
of me.
5:40 And you will not come to me, that
you might have life.
5:41 I receive not honor from men.
5:42 But I know you, that you have not
the love of God in you.
5:43 I am come in my Father's name, and
you receive me not: if another
shall come in his own name, him you will
receive.
5:44 How can you believe, which receive
honor one of another, and seek
not the honor that comes from God only?
5:45 Do not think that I will accuse
you to the Father: there is one
that accuses you, even Moses, in whom
you trust.
5:46 For had you believed Moses, you
would have believed me; for he
wrote of me.
5:47 But if you believe not his writings,
how shall you believe my
words?
6:1 After these things Jesus went over
the sea of Galilee, which is
the sea of Tiberias.
6:2 And a great multitude followed him,
because they saw his miracles
which he did on them that were diseased.
6:3 And Jesus went up into a mountain,
and there he sat with his
disciples.
6:4 And the passover, a feast of the
Jews, was close.
6:5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes,
and saw a great company come
unto him, he says unto Philip, From where
shall we buy bread, that
these may eat?
6:6 And this he said to prove him: for
he himself knew what he would
do.
6:7 Philip answered him, Two hundred
denarii worth of bread is not
sufficient for them, that every one of
them may take a little.
6:8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon
Peter's brother, says unto
him,
6:9 There is a lad here, which has five
barley loaves, and two small
fishes: but what are they among so many?
6:10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit
down. Now there was much grass
in the place. So the men sat down, in
number about five thousand.
6:11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when
he had given thanks, he
distributed to the disciples, and the
disciples to them that were set
down; and likewise of the fishes as much
as they would.
6:12 When they were filled, he said unto
his disciples, Gather up the
fragments that remain, that nothing be
lost.
6:13 Therefore they gathered them together,
and filled twelve baskets
with the fragments of the five barley
loaves, which remained over and
above unto them that had eaten.
6:14 Then those men, when they had seen
the miracle that Jesus did,
said, This is of a truth that prophet
that should come into the world.
6:15 When Jesus therefore perceived that
they would come and take him
by force, to make him a king, he departed
again into a mountain
himself alone.
6:16 And when even was now come, his
disciples went down unto the sea,
6:17 And entered into a boat, and went
over the sea toward Capernaum.
And it was now dark, and Jesus was not
come to them.
6:18 And the sea arose by reason of a
great wind that blew.
6:19 So when they had rowed about five
and twenty or thirty furlongs,
they see Jesus walking on the sea, and
drawing close unto the boat:
and they were afraid.
6:20 But he says unto them, It is I;
be not afraid.
6:21 Then they willingly received him
into the boat: and immediately
the boat was at the land to where they
went.
6:22 The day following, when the people
which stood on the other side
of the sea saw that there was none other
boat there, except that one
into which his disciples were entered,
and that Jesus went not with
his disciples into the boat, but that
his disciples were gone away
alone;
6:23 (Howbeit there came other boats
from Tiberias close unto the
place where they did eat bread, after
the Lord had given thanks:)
6:24 When the people therefore saw that
Jesus was not there, neither
his disciples, they also took shipping,
and came to Capernaum, seeking
for Jesus.
6:25 And when they had found him on the
other side of the sea, they
said unto him, Rabbi, when came you to
here?
6:26 Jesus answered them and said, Truthfully,
truthfully, I say unto
you, You seek me, not because you saw
the miracles, but because you
did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
6:27 Labor not for the food which perishes,
but for that food which
endures unto everlasting life, which
the Son of man shall give unto
you: for him has God the Father sealed.
6:28 Then said they unto him, What shall
we do, that we might work the
works of God?
6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them,
This is the work of God, that
you believe on him whom he has sent.
6:30 They said therefore unto him, What
sign do you show then, that we
may see, and believe you? what do you
work?
6:31 Our fathers did eat manna in the
desert; as it is written, He
gave them bread from heaven to eat.
6:32 Then Jesus said unto them, Truthfully,
truthfully, I say unto
you, Moses gave you not that bread from
heaven; but my Father gives
you the true bread from heaven.
6:33 For the bread of God is he which
comes down from heaven, and
gives life unto the world.
6:34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore
give us this bread.
6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the
bread of life: he that comes
to me shall never hunger; and he that
believes on me shall never
thirst.
6:36 But I said unto you, That you also
have seen me, and believe not.
6:37 All that the Father gives me shall
come to me; and him that comes
to me I will in no way cast out.
6:38 For I came down from heaven, not
to do my own will, but the will
of him that sent me.
6:39 And this is the Father's will which
has sent me, that of all
which he has given me I should lose nothing,
but should raise it up
again at the last day.
6:40 And this is the will of him that
sent me, that every one which
sees the Son, and believes on him, may
have everlasting life: and I
will raise him up at the last day.
6:41 The Jews then murmured at him, because
he said, I am the bread
which came down from heaven.
6:42 And they said, Is not this Jesus,
the son of Joseph, whose father
and mother we know? how is it then that
he says, I came down from
heaven?
6:43 Jesus therefore answered and said
unto them, Murmur not among
yourselves.
6:44 No man can come to me, unless the
Father which has sent me draw
him: and I will raise him up at the last
day.
6:45 It is written in the prophets, And
they shall be all taught of
God. Every man therefore that has heard,
and has learned of the
Father, comes unto me.
6:46 Not that any man has seen the Father,
save he which is of God, he
has seen the Father.
6:47 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, He that believes on me
has everlasting life.
6:48 I am that bread of life.
6:49 Your fathers did eat manna in the
wilderness, and are dead.
6:50 This is the bread which comes down
from heaven, that a man may
eat of it, and not die.
6:51 I am the living bread which came
down from heaven: if any man 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.
6:52 The Jews therefore strove among
themselves, saying, How can this
man give us his flesh to eat?
6:53 Then Jesus said unto them, Truthfully,
truthfully, I say unto
you, Unless you eat the flesh of the
Son of man, and drink his blood,
you have no life in you.
6:54 Whoso eats my flesh, and drinks
my blood, has eternal life; and I
will raise him up at the last day.
6:55 For my flesh is food indeed, and
my blood is drink indeed.
6:56 He that eats my flesh, and drinks
my blood, dwells in me, and I
in him.
6:57 As the living Father has sent me,
and I live by the Father: so he
that eats me, even he shall live by me.
6:58 This is that bread which came down
from heaven: not as your
fathers did eat manna, and are dead:
he that eats of this bread shall
live forever.
6:59 These things said he in the synagogue,
as he taught in Capernaum.
6:60 Many therefore of his disciples,
when they had heard this, said,
This is a hard saying; who can hear it?
6:61 When Jesus knew in himself that
his disciples murmured at it, he
said unto them, Does this offend you?
6:62 What and if you shall see the Son
of man ascend up where he was
before?
6:63 It is the spirit that gives life;
the flesh profits nothing: the
words that I speak unto you, they are
spirit, and they are life.
6:64 But there are some of you that believe
not. For Jesus knew from
the beginning who they were that believed
not, and who should betray
him.
6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto
you, that no man can come unto
me, unless it were given unto him of
my Father.
6:66 From that time many of his disciples
went back, and walked no
more with him.
6:67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve,
Will you also go away? 6:68 Then
Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom
shall we go? you have the
words of eternal life.
6:69 And we believe and are sure that
you are that Christ, the Son of
the living God.
6:70 Jesus answered them, Have not I
chosen you twelve, and one of you
is a devil?
6:71 He spoke of Judas Iscariot the son
of Simon: for he it was that
should betray him, being one of the twelve.
7:1 After these things Jesus walked in
Galilee: for he would not walk
in Jewry, because the Jews sought to
kill him.
7:2 Now the Jew's feast of tabernacles
was at hand.
7:3 His brothers therefore said unto
him, Depart hence, and go into
Judaea, that your disciples also may
see the works that you are doing.
7:4 For there is no man that does any
thing in secret, and he himself
seeks to be known openly. If you do these
things, show yourself to the
world.
7:5 For neither did his brothers believe
in him.
7:6 Then Jesus said unto them, My time
is not yet come: but your time
is always ready.
7:7 The world cannot hate you; but me
it hates, because I testify of
it, that the works of it are evil.
7:8 Go you up unto this feast: I go not
up yet unto this feast: for my
time is not yet full come.
7:9 When he had said these words unto
them, he abode still in Galilee.
7:10 But when his brothers were gone
up, then went he also up unto the
feast, not openly, but as it were in
secret.
7:11 Then the Jews sought him at the
feast, and said, Where is he?
7:12 And there was much murmuring among
the people concerning him: for
some said, He is a good man: others said,
No; but he deceives the
people.
7:13 Howbeit no man spoke openly of him
for fear of the Jews.
7:14 Now about the midst of the feast
Jesus went up into the temple,
and taught.
7:15 And the Jews marvelled, saying,
How knows this man letters,
having never learned?
7:16 Jesus answered them, and said, My
doctrine is not mine, but his
that sent me.
7:17 If any man will do his will, he
shall know of the doctrine,
whether it be of God, or whether I speak
of myself.
7:18 He that speaks of himself seeks
his own glory: but he that seeks
his glory that sent him, the same is
true, and no unrighteousness is
in him.
7:19 Did not Moses give you the law,
and yet none of you keeps the
law? Why go you about to kill me?
7:20 The people answered and said, You
have a devil: who goes about to
kill you?
7:21 Jesus answered and said unto them,
I have done one work, and you
all marvel.
7:22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision;
(not because it is of
Moses, but of the fathers;) and you on
the sabbath day circumcise a
man.
7:23 If a man on the sabbath day receive
circumcision, that the law of
Moses should not be broken; are you angry
at me, because I have made a
man every whit whole on the sabbath day?
7:24 Judge not according to the appearance,
but judge righteous
judgment.
7:25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem,
Is not this he, whom they
seek to kill?
7:26 But, lo, he speaks boldly, and they
say nothing unto him. Do the
rulers know indeed that this is the very
Christ?
7:27 Howbeit we know this man from where
he is: but when Christ comes,
no man knows from where he is.
7:28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as
he taught, saying, You both
know me, and you know from where I am:
and I am not come of myself,
but he that sent me is true, whom you
know not.
7:29 But I know him: for I am from him,
and he has sent me.
7:30 Then they sought to take him: but
no man laid hands on him,
because his hour was not yet come.
7:31 And many of the people believed
on him, and said, When Christ
comes, will he do more miracles than
these which this man has done?
7:32 The Pharisees heard that the people
murmured such things
concerning him; and the Pharisees and
the chief priests sent officers
to take him.
7:33 Then said Jesus unto them, yet a
little while am I with you, and
then I go unto him that sent me.
7:34 You shall seek me, and shall not
find me: and where I am, to
there you cannot come.
7:35 Then said the Jews among themselves,
To where will he go, that we
shall not find him? will he go unto the
dispersed among the Gentiles,
and teach the Gentiles?
7:36 What manner of saying is this that
he said, You shall seek me,
and shall not find me: and where I am,
to there you cannot come?
7:37 In the last day, that great day
of the feast, Jesus stood and
cried, saying, If any man thirst, let
him come unto me, and drink.
7:38 He that believes on me, as the scripture
has said, out of his
belly shall flow rivers of living water.
7:39 (But this spoke he of the Spirit,
which they that believe on him
should receive: for the Holy Ghost was
not yet given; because Jesus
was not yet glorified.)
7:40 Many of the people therefore, when
they heard this saying, said,
Of a truth this is the Prophet.
7:41 Others said, This is the Christ.
But some said, Shall Christ come
out of Galilee?
7:42 Has not the scripture said, That
Christ comes of the seed of
David, and out of the town of Bethlehem,
where David was?
7:43 So there was a division among the
people because of him.
7:44 And some of them would have taken
him; but no man laid hands on
him.
7:45 Then came the officers to the chief
priests and Pharisees; and
they said unto them, Why have you not
brought him?
7:46 The officers answered, Never man
spoke like this man.
7:47 Then answered them the Pharisees,
Are you also deceived? 7:48
Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees
believed on him?
7:49 But this people who knows not the
law are cursed.
7:50 Nicodemus says unto them, (he that
came to Jesus by night, being
one of them,)
7:51 Does our law judge any man, before
it hear him, and know what he
does?
7:52 They answered and said unto him,
Are you also of Galilee? Search,
and look: for out of Galilee arises no
prophet.
7:53 And every man went unto his own
house.
8:1 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
8:2 And early in the morning he came
again into the temple, and all
the people came unto him; and he sat
down, and taught them.
8:3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought
unto him a woman taken in
adultery; and when they had set her in
the midst,
8:4 They say unto him, Master, this woman
was taken in adultery, in
the very act.
8:5 Now Moses in the law commanded us,
that such should be stoned: but
what say you?
8:6 This they said, tempting him, that
they might have something to
accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and
with his finger wrote on the
ground, as though he heard them not.
8:7 So when they continued asking him,
he lifted up himself, and said
unto them, He that is without sin among
you, let him cast the first
stone at her.
8:8 And again he stooped down, and wrote
on the ground.
8:9 And they which heard it, being convicted
by their own conscience,
went out one by one, beginning at the
eldest, even unto the last: and
Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing
in the midst.
8:10 When Jesus had lifted up himself,
and saw none but the woman, he
said unto her, Woman, where are those
your accusers? has no man
condemned you?
8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus
said unto her, Neither do I
condemn you: go, and sin no more.
8:12 Then spoke Jesus again unto them,
saying, I am the light of the
world: he that follows me shall not walk
in darkness, but shall have
the light of life.
8:13 The Pharisees therefore said unto
him, You bear record of
yourself; your record is not true.
8:14 Jesus answered and said unto them,
Though I bear record of
myself, yet my record is true: for I
know from where I came, and to
where I go; but you cannot tell from
where I come, and to where I go.
8:15 You judge after the flesh; I judge
no man.
8:16 And yet if I judge, my judgment
is true: for I am not alone, but
I and the Father that sent me.
8:17 It is also written in your law,
that the testimony of two men is
true.
8:18 I am one that bear witness of myself,
and the Father that sent me
bears witness of me.
8:19 Then said they unto him, Where is
your Father? Jesus answered,
you neither know me, nor my Father: if
you had known me, you should
have known my Father also.
8:20 These words spoke Jesus in the treasury,
as he taught in the
temple: and no man laid hands on him;
for his hour was not yet come.
8:21 Then said Jesus again unto them,
I go my way, and you shall seek
me, and shall die in your sins: to where
I go, you cannot come.
8:22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill
himself? because he says, To
where I go, you cannot come.
8:23 And he said unto them, You are from
beneath; I am from above: you
are of this world; I am not of this world.
8:24 I said therefore unto you, that
you shall die in your sins: for
if you believe not that I am he, you
shall die in your sins.
8:25 Then said they unto him, Who are
you? And Jesus says unto them,
Even the same that I said unto you from
the beginning.
8:26 I have many things to say and to
judge of you: but he that sent
me is true; and I speak to the world
those things which I have heard
of him.
8:27 They understood not that he spoke
to them of the Father.
8:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When
you have lifted up the Son of
man, then shall you know that I am he,
and that I do nothing of
myself; but as my Father has taught me,
I speak these things.
8:29 And he that sent me is with me:
the Father has not left me alone;
for I do always those things that please
him.
8:30 As he spoke these words, many believed
on him.
8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which
believed on him, If you
continue in my word, then are you my
disciples indeed;
8:32 And you shall know the truth, and
the truth shall make you free.
8:33 They answered him, We be Abraham's
seed, and were never in
bondage to any man: how say you, You
shall be made free?
8:34 Jesus answered them, Truthfully,
truthfully, I say unto you,
Whosoever commits sin is the servant
of sin.
8:35 And the servant abides not in the
house forever: but the Son
abides ever.
8:36 If the Son therefore shall make
you free, you shall be free
indeed.
8:37 I know that you are Abraham's seed;
but you seek to kill me,
because my word has no place in you.
8:38 I speak that which I have seen with
my Father: and you do that
which you have seen with your father.
8:39 They answered and said unto him,
Abraham is our father. Jesus
says unto them, If you were Abraham's
children, you would do the works
of Abraham.
8:40 But now you seek to kill me, a man
that has told you the truth,
which I have heard of God: this did not
Abraham.
8:41 You do the deeds of your father.
Then said they to him, We be not
born of fornication; we have one Father,
even God.
8:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were
your Father, you would love me:
for I proceeded forth and came from God;
neither came I of myself, but
he sent me.
8:43 Why do you not understand my speech?
even because you cannot hear
my word.
8:44 You are of your father the devil,
and the lusts of your father
you will do. He was a murderer from the
beginning, and abode not in
the truth, because there is no truth
in him. When he speaks a lie, he
speaks of his own: for he is a liar,
and the father of it.
8:45 And because I tell you the truth,
you believe me not.
8:46 Which of you convinces me of sin?
And if I say the truth, why do
you not believe me?
8:47 He that is of God hears God's words:
you therefore hear them not,
because you are not of God.
8:48 Then answered the Jews, and said
unto him, Say we not well that
you are a Samaritan, and have a devil?
8:49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil;
but I honor my Father, and
you do dishonor me.
8:50 And I seek not my own glory: there
is one that seeks and judges.
8:51 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, If a man keep my saying,
he shal never see death.
8:52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now
we know that you have a devil.
Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and
you say, If a man keep my
saying, he shall never taste of death.
8:53 Are you greater than our father
Abraham, which is dead? and the
prophets are dead: who do you think you
are?
8:54 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:
8:55 yet you have not known him; but
I know him: and if I should say,
I know him not, I shall be a liar like
unto you: but I know him, and
keep his saying.
8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to
see my day: and he saw it, and
was glad.
8:57 Then said the Jews unto him, You
are not yet fifty years old, and
have you seen Abraham?
8:58 Jesus said unto them, Truthfully,
truthfully, I say unto you,
Before Abraham was, I am.
8:59 Then took they up stones to cast
at him: but Jesus hid himself,
and went out of the temple, going through
the midst of them, and so
passed by.
9:1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a
man which was blind from his
birth.
9:2 And his disciples asked him, saying,
Master, who did sin, this
man, or his parents, that he was born
blind?
9:3 Jesus answered, Neither has this
man sinned, nor his parents: but
that the works of God should be made
manifest in him.
9:4 I must work the works of him that
sent me, while it is day: the
night comes, when no man can work.
9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am
the light of the world.
9:6 When he had thus spoken, he spat
on the ground, and made clay of
the spittle, and he anointed the eyes
of the blind man with the clay,
9:7 And said unto him, Go, wash in the
pool of Siloam, (which is by
interpretation, Sent.) He went his way
therefore, and washed, and came
seeing.
9:8 The neighbors therefore, and they
which before had seen him that
he was blind, said, Is not this he that
sat and begged?
9:9 Some said, This is he: others said,
He is like him: but he said, I
am he.
9:10 Therefore said they unto him, How
were your eyes opened? 9:11 He
answered and said, A man that is called
Jesus made clay, and anointed
my eyes, and said unto me, Go to the
pool of Siloam, and wash: and I
went and washed, and I received sight.
9:12 Then said they unto him, Where is
he? He said, I do not know.
9:13 They brought to the Pharisees him
that previously was blind.
9:14 And it was the sabbath day when
Jesus made the clay, and opened
his eyes.
9:15 Then again the Pharisees also asked
him how he had received his
sight. He said unto them, He put clay
upon my eyes, and I washed, and
do see.
9:16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees,
This man is not of God,
because he keeps not the sabbath day.
Others said, How can a man that
is a sinner do such miracles? And there
was a division among them.
9:17 They say unto the blind man again,
What say you of him, that he
has opened your eyes? He said, He is
a prophet.
9:18 But the Jews did not believe concerning
him, that he had been
blind, and received his sight, until
they called the parents of him
that had received his sight.
9:19 And they asked them, saying, Is
this your son, who you say was
born blind? how then does he now see?
9:20 His parents answered them and said,
We know that this is our son,
and that he was born blind:
9:21 But by what means he now sees, we
know not; or who has opened his
eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask
him: he shall speak for himself.
9:22 These words spoke his parents, because
they feared the Jews: for
the Jews had agreed already, that if
any man did confess that he was
Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
9:23 Therefore said his parents, He is
of age; ask him.
9:24 Then again called they the man that
was blind, and said unto him,
Give God the praise: we know that this
man is a sinner.
9:25 He answered and said, Whether he
be a sinner or no, I do not
know: one thing I know, that, whereas
I was blind, now I see.
9:26 Then said they to him again, What
did he to you? how opened he
your eyes?
9:27 He answered them, I have told you
already, and you did not hear:
why would you hear it again? will you
also be his disciples?
9:28 Then they reviled him, and said,
You are his disciple; but we are
Moses' disciples.
9:29 We know that God spoke unto Moses:
as for this fellow, we know
not from from where he is.
9:30 The man answered and said unto them,
Why herein is a marvelous
thing, that you know not from from where
he is, and yet he has opened
mine eyes.
9:31 Now we know that God hears not sinners:
but if any man be a
worshiper of God, and does his will,
him he hears.
9:32 Since the world began was it not
heard that any man opened the
eyes of one that was born blind.
9:33 If this man were not of God, he
could do nothing.
9:34 They answered and said unto him,
You were altogether born in
sins, and do you teach us? And they cast
him out.
9:35 Jesus heard that they had cast him
out; and when he had found
him, he said unto him, Do you believe
on the Son of God?
9:36 He answered and said, Who is he,
Lord, that I might believe on
him?
9:37 And Jesus said unto him, You have
both seen him, and it is he
that talks with you.
9:38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And
he worshipped him.
9:39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am
come into this world, that they
which see not might see; and that they
which see might be made blind.
9:40 And some of the Pharisees which
were with him heard these words,
and said unto him, Are we blind also?
9:41 Jesus said unto them, If you were
blind, you should have no sin:
but now you say, We see; therefore your
sin remains.
10:1 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, He that enters not by the
door into the sheepfold, but climbs up
some other way, the same is a
thief and a robber.
10:2 But he that enters in by the door
is the shepherd of the sheep.
10:3 To him the porter opens; and the
sheep hear his voice: and he
calls his own sheep by name, and leads
them out.
10:4 And when he puts forth his own sheep,
he goes before them, and
the sheep follow him: for they know his
voice.
10:5 And a stranger will they not follow,
but will flee from him: for
they know not the voice of strangers.
10:6 This parable spoke Jesus unto them:
but they understood not what
things they were which he spoke unto
them.
10:7 Then said Jesus unto them again,
Truthfully, truthfully, I say
unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
10:8 All that ever came before me are
thieves and robbers: but the
sheep did not hear them.
10:9 I am the door: by me if any man
enter in, he shall be saved, and
shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10:10 The thief comes not, but for to
steal, and to kill, and to
destroy: I am come that they might have
life, and that they might have
it more abundantly.
10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good
shepherd gives his life for the
sheep.
10:12 But he that is a hireling, and
not the shepherd, whose own the
sheep are not, sees the wolf coming,
and leaves the sheep, and flees:
and the wolf catches them, and scatters
the sheep.
10:13 The hireling flees, because he
is a hireling, and cares not for
the sheep.
10:14 I am the good shepherd, and know
my sheep, and am known of mine.
10:15 As the Father knows me, even so
know I the Father: and I lay
down my life for the sheep.
10:16 And other sheep I have, which are
not of this fold: them also I
must bring, and they shall hear my voice;
and there shall be one fold,
and one shepherd.
10:17 Therefore does my Father love me,
because I lay down my life,
that I might take it again.
10:18 No man takes it 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
commandment have I received of my Father.
10:19 There was a division therefore
again among the Jews for these
sayings.
10:20 And many of them said, He has a
devil, and is mad; why hear you
him?
10:21 Others said, These are not the
words of him that has a devil.
Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
10:22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast
of the dedication, and it was
winter.
10:23 And Jesus walked in the temple
in Solomon's porch.
10:24 Then came the Jews round about
him, and said unto him, How long
do you make us to doubt? If you be the
Christ, tell us plainly.
10:25 Jesus answered them, I told you,
and you believed not: the works
that I do in my Father's name, they bear
witness of me.
10:26 But you believe not, because you
are not of my sheep, as I said
unto you.
10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know
them, and they follow me:
10:28 And I give unto them eternal life;
and they shall never perish,
neither shall any man pluck them out
of my hand.
10:29 My Father, which gave them me,
is greater than all; and no man
is able to pluck them out of my Father's
hand.
10:30 I and my Father are one.
10:31 Then the Jews took up stones again
to stone him.
10:32 Jesus answered them, Many good
works have I showed you from my
Father; for which of those works do you
stone me?
10:33 The Jews answered him, saying,
For a good work we stone you not;
but for blasphemy; and because you, being
a man, make yourself God.
10:34 Jesus answered them, Is it not
written in your law, I said, you
are gods?
10:35 If he called them gods, unto whom
the word of God came, and the
scripture cannot be broken;
10:36 Say you of him, whom the Father
has sanctified, and sent into
the world, You blaspheme; because I said,
I am the Son of God?
10:37 If I do not the works of my Father,
believe me not.
10:38 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.
10:39 Therefore they sought again to
take him: but he escaped out of
their hand,
10:40 And went away again beyond the
Jordan into the place where John
at first baptized; and there he abode.
10:41 And many resorted unto him, and
said, John did no miracle: but
all things that John spoke of this man
were true.
10:42 And many believed on him there.
11:1 Now a certain man was sick, named
Lazarus, of Bethany, the town
of Mary and her sister Martha.
11:2 (It was that Mary which anointed
the Lord with ointment, and
wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother
Lazarus was sick.)
11:3 Therefore his sisters sent unto
him, saying, Lord, behold, he
whom you love is sick.
11:4 When Jesus heard that, he said,
This sickness is not unto death,
but for the glory of God, that the Son
of God might be glorified
thereby.
11:5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her
sister, and Lazarus.
11:6 When he had heard therefore that
he was sick, he abode two days
still in the same place where he was.
11:7 Then after that says he to his disciples,
Let us go into Judaea
again.
11:8 His disciples say unto him, Master,
the Jews of late sought to
stone you; and you go to there again?
11:9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve
hours in the day? If any man
walk in the day, he stumbles not, because
he sees the light of this
world.
11:10 But if a man walk in the night,
he stumbles, because there is no
light in him.
11:11 These things said he: and after
that he says unto them, Our
friend Lazarus sleeps; but I go, that
I may awake him out of sleep.
11:12 Then said his disciples, Lord,
if he sleep, he shall do well.
11:13 Howbeit Jesus spoke of his death:
but they thought that he had
spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
11:14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly,
Lazarus is dead.
11:15 And I am glad for your sakes that
I was not there, to the intent
you may believe; nevertheless let us
go unto him.
11:16 Then said Thomas, which is called
Didymus, unto his fellow
disciples, Let us also go, that we may
die with him.
11:17 Then when Jesus came, he found
that he had lain in the grave
four days already.
11:18 Now Bethany was close unto Jerusalem,
about fifteen furlongs
off:
11:19 And many of the Jews came to Martha
and Mary, to comfort them
concerning their brother.
11:20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard
that Jesus was coming, went
and met him: but Mary sat still in the
house.
11:21 Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord,
if you had been here, my
brother had not died.
11:22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever
you will ask of God, God
will give it you.
11:23 Jesus says unto her, Your brother
shall rise again.
11:24 Martha says unto him, I know that
he shall rise again in the
resurrection at the last day.
11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection,
and the life: he
that believes in me, though he were dead,
yet shall he live:
11:26 And whosoever lives and believes
in me shall never die. Believe
you this?
11:27 She says unto him, Yes, Lord: I
believe that you are the Christ,
the Son of God, which should come into
the world.
11:28 And when she had so said, she went
her way, and called Mary her
sister secretly, saying, The Master is
come, and calls for you.
11:29 As soon as she heard that, she
arose quickly, and came unto him.
11:30 Now Jesus was not yet come into
the town, but was in that place
where Martha met him.
11:31 The Jews then which were with her
in the house, and comforted
her, when they saw Mary, that she rose
up hastily and went out,
followed her, saying, She goes unto the
grave to weep there.
11:32 Then when Mary was come where Jesus
was, and saw him, she fell
down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord,
if you had been here, my
brother had not died.
11:33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping,
and the Jews also weeping
which came with her, he groaned in the
spirit, and was troubled.
11:34 And said, Where have you laid him?
They said unto him, Lord,
come and see.
11:35 Jesus wept.
11:36 Then said the Jews, Behold how
he loved him! 11:37 And some of
them said, Could not this man, which
opened the eyes of the blind,
have caused that even this man should
not have died?
11:38 Jesus therefore again groaning
in himself comes to the grave. It
was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
11:39 Jesus said, Take you away the stone.
Martha, the sister of him
that was dead, says unto him, Lord, by
this time he stinks: for he has
been dead four days.
11:40 Jesus says unto her, Said I not
unto you, that, if you would
believe, you should see the glory of
God?
11:41 Then they took away the stone from
the place where the dead was
laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and
said, Father, I thank you that
you have heard me.
11:42 And I knew that you hear me always:
but because of the people
which stand by I said it, that they may
believe that you have sent me.
11:43 And when he thus had spoken, he
cried with a loud voice,
Lazarus, come forth.
11:44 And he that was dead came forth,
bound hand and foot with
graveclothes: and his face was bound
about with a napkin. Jesus says
unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
11:45 Then many of the Jews which came
to Mary, and had seen the
things which Jesus did, believed on him.
11:46 But some of them went their ways
to the Pharisees, and told them
what things Jesus had done.
11:47 Then gathered the chief priests
and the Pharisees a council, and
said, What do we? for this man does many
miracles.
11:48 If we let him thus alone, all men
will believe on him: and the
Romans shall come and take away both
our place and nation.
11:49 And one of them, named Caiaphas,
being the high priest that same
year, said unto them, You know nothing
at all,
11:50 Nor consider that it is expedient
for us, that one man should
die for the people, and that the whole
nation perish not.
11:51 And this spoke he not of himself:
but being high priest that
year, he prophesied that Jesus should
die for that nation;
11:52 And not for that nation only, but
that also he should gather
together in one the children of God that
were scattered abroad.
11:53 Then from that day forth they took
counsel together for to put
him to death.
11:54 Jesus therefore walked no more
openly among the Jews; but went
from there unto a country near to the
wilderness, into a city called
Ephraim, and there continued with his
disciples.
11:55 And the Jews' passover was close
at hand: and many went out of
the country up to Jerusalem before the
passover, to purify themselves.
11:56 Then sought they for Jesus, and
spoke among themselves, as they
stood in the temple, What think you,
that he will not come to the
feast?
11:57 Now both the chief priests and
the Pharisees had given a
commandment, that, if any man knew where
he were, he should show it,
that they might take him.
12:1 Then Jesus six days before the passover
came to Bethany, where
Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom
he raised from the dead.
12:2 There they made him a supper; and
Martha served: but Lazarus was
one of them that sat at the table with
him.
12:3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment
of spikenard, very costly, and
anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped
his feet with her hair: and the
house was filled with the odor of the
ointment.
12:4 Then says one of his disciples,
Judas Iscariot, Simon's son,
which should betray him,
12:5 Why was not this ointment sold for
three hundred denarii, and
given to the poor?
12:6 This he said, not that he cared
for the poor; but because he was
a thief, and had the bag, and bore what
was put in it.
12:7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone:
against the day of my burying has
she kept this.
12:8 For the poor always you have with
you; but me you have not
always.
12:9 Much people of the Jews therefore
knew that he was there: and
they came not for Jesus' sake only, but
that they might see Lazarus
also, whom he had raised from the dead.
12:10 But the chief priests consulted
that they might put Lazarus also
to death;
12:11 Because that by reason of him many
of the Jews went away, and
believed on Jesus.
12:12 On the next day many people that
had come to the feast, when
they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
12:13 Took branches of palm trees, and
went forth to meet him, and
cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of
Israel that comes in the name
of the Lord.
12:14 And Jesus, when he had found a
young ass, sat thereon; as it is
written,
12:15 Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold,
your King comes, sitting on
an ass's colt.
12:16 These things understood not his
disciples at the first: but when
Jesus was glorified, then remembered
they that these things were
written of him, and that they had done
these things unto him.
12:17 The people therefore that was with
him when he called Lazarus
out of his grave, and raised him from
the dead, bore record.
12:18 For this cause the people also
met him, for that they heard that
he had done this miracle.
12:19 The Pharisees therefore said among
themselves, Perceive you how
you prevail nothing? behold, the world
is gone after him.
12:20 And there were certain Greeks among
them that came up to worship
at the feast:
12:21 The same came therefore to Philip,
which was of Bethsaida of
Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir,
we would see Jesus.
12:22 Philip comes and tells Andrew:
and again Andrew and Philip tell
Jesus.
12:23 And Jesus answered them, saying,
The hour is come, that the Son
of man should be glorified.
12:24 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, Unless a corn of wheat
fall int the ground and die, it abides
alone: but if it die, it brings
forth much fruit.
12:25 He that loves his life shall lose
it; and he that hates his life
in this world shall keep it unto life
eternal.
12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow
me; and where I am, there
shall also my servant be: if any man
serve me, him will my Father
honor.
12:27 Now is my soul troubled; and what
shall I say? Father, save me
from this hour: but for this cause came
I unto this hour.
12:28 Father, glorify your name. Then
came there a voice from heaven,
saying, I have both glorified it, and
will glorify it again.
12:29 The people therefore, that stood
by, and heard it, said that it
thundered: others said, An angel spoke
to him.
12:30 Jesus answered and said, This voice
came not because of me, but
for your sakes.
12:31 Now is the judgment of this world:
now shall the prince of this
world be cast out.
12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the
earth, will draw all men unto
me.
12:33 This he said, signifying what death
he should die.
12:34 The people answered him, We have
heard out of the law that
Christ abides forever: and how say you,
The Son of man must be lifted
up? who is this Son of man?
12:35 Then Jesus said unto them, yet
a little while is the light with
you. Walk while you have the light, lest
darkness come upon you: for
he that walks in darkness knows not to
where he goes.
12:36 While you have light, believe in
the light, that you may be the
children of light. These things spoke
Jesus, and departed, and did
hide himself from them.
12:37 But though he had done so many
miracles before them, yet they
believed not on him:
12:38 That the saying 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?
12:39 Therefore they could not believe,
because Isaiah said again,
12:40 He has blinded their eyes, and
hardened their heart; that they
should not see with their eyes, nor understand
with their heart, and
be converted, and I should heal them.
12:41 These things said Isaiah, when
he saw his glory, and spoke of
him.
12:42 Nevertheless among the chief rulers
also many believed on him;
but because of the Pharisees they did
not confess him, lest they
should be put out of the synagogue:
12:43 For they loved the praise of men
more than the praise of God.
12:44 Jesus cried and said, He that believes
on me, believes not on
me, but on him that sent me.
12:45 And he that sees me sees him that
sent me.
12:46 I am come a light into the world,
that whosoever believes on me
should not abide in darkness.
12:47 And if any man hear my words, and
believe not, I judge him not:
for I came not to judge the world, but
to save the world.
12:48 He that rejects me, and receives
not my words, has one that
judges him: the word that I have spoken,
the same shall judge him in
the last day.
12:49 For I have not spoken of myself;
but the Father which sent me,
he gave me a commandment, what I should
say, and what I should speak.
12:50 And I know that his commandment
is life everlasting: whatsoever
I speak therefore, just as the Father
said unto me, so I speak.
13:1 Now before the feast of the passover,
when Jesus knew that his
hour was come that he should depart out
of this world unto the Father,
having loved his own which were in the
world, he loved them unto the
end.
13:2 And supper being ended, the devil
having now put into the heart
of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray
him;
13:3 Jesus knowing that the Father had
given all things into his
hands, and that he was come from God,
and went to God;
13:4 He rises from supper, and laid aside
his garments; and took a
towel, and girded himself.
13:5 After that he pours water into a
basin, and began to wash the
disciples' feet, and to wipe them with
the towel with which he was
girded.
13:6 Then comes he to Simon Peter: and
Peter says unto him, Lord, do
you wash my feet?
13:7 Jesus answered and said unto him,
What I do you know not now; but
you shall know hereafter.
13:8 Peter says unto him, You shall never
wash my feet. Jesus answered
him, If I wash you not, you have no part
with me.
13:9 Simon Peter says unto him, Lord,
not my feet only, but also my
hands and my head.
13:10 Jesus says to him, He that is washed
needs not save to wash his
feet, but is clean every whit: and you
are clean, but not all.
13:11 For he knew who should betray him;
therefore said he, You are
not all clean.
13:12 So after he had washed their feet,
and had taken his garments,
and was set down again, he said unto
them, Know you what I have done
to you?
13:13 You call me Master and Lord: and
you say well; for so I am.
13:14 If I then, your Lord and Master,
have washed your feet; you also
ought to wash one another's feet.
13:15 For I have given you an example,
that you should do as I have
done to you.
13:16 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, The servant is not
greater than his lord; neither he that
is sent greater than he that
sent him.
13:17 If you know these things, happy
are you if you do them.
13:18 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.
13:19 Now I tell you before it come,
that, when it is come to pass,
you may believe that I am he.
13:20 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, He that receives
whomsoever I send receives me; and he
that receives me receives him
that sent me.
13:21 When Jesus had thus said, he was
troubled in spirit, and
testified, and said, Truthfully, truthfully,
I say unto you, that one
of you shall betray me.
13:22 Then the disciples looked one on
another, doubting of whom he
spoke.
13:23 Now there was leaning on Jesus'
bosom one of his disciples, whom
Jesus loved.
13:24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned
to him, that he should ask who it
should be of whom he spoke.
13:25 He then lying on Jesus' breast
says unto him, Lord, who is it?
13:26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom
I shall give a sop, when I
have dipped it. And when he had dipped
the sop, he gave it to Judas
Iscariot, the son of Simon.
13:27 And after the sop Satan entered
into him. Then said Jesus unto
him, That you are doing, do quickly.
13:28 Now no man at the table knew for
what intent he spoke this unto
him.
13:29 For some of them thought, because
Judas had the bag, that Jesus
had said unto him, Buy those things that
we have need of against the
feast; or, that he should give something
to the poor.
13:30 He then having received the sop
went immediately out: and it was
night.
13:31 Therefore, when he was gone out,
Jesus said, Now is the Son of
man glorified, and God is glorified in
him.
13:32 If God be glorified in him, God
shall also glorify him in
himself, and shall immediately glorify
him.
13:33 Little children, yet a little while
I am with you. You shall
seek me: and as I said unto the Jews,
Where I go, you cannot come; so
now I say to you.
13:34 A new commandment I give unto you,
That you love one another; as
I have loved you, that you also love
one another.
13:35 By this shall all men know that
you are my disciples, if you
have love one to another.
13:36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord,
to where do you go? Jesus
answered him, Where I go, you cannot
follow me now; but you shall
follow me afterwards.
13:37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why
cannot I follow you now? I will
lay down my life for your sake.
13:38 Jesus answered him, Will you lay
down your life for my sake?
Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you,
The cock shall not crow, till
you have denied me three times.
14:1 Let not your heart be troubled:
you believe in God, believe also
in me.
14:2 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.
14:3 And if I go and prepare a place
for you, I will come again, and
receive you unto myself; that where I
am, there you may be also.
14:4 And to where I go you know, and
the way you know.
14:5 Thomas says unto him, Lord, we know
not to where you go; and how
can we know the way?
14:6 Jesus says unto him, I am the way,
the truth, and the life: no
man comes unto the Father, but by me.
14:7 If you had known me, you should
have known my Father also: and
from now on you know him, and have seen
him.
14:8 Philip says unto him, Lord, show
us the Father, and it suffices
us.
14:9 Jesus says unto him, Have I been
so long time with you, and yet
Have You not known me, Philip? he that
has seen me has seen the
Father; and how say you then, Show us
the Father?
14:10 Believe you not that I am in the
Father, and the Father in me?
the words that I speak unto you I speak
not of myself: but the Father
that dwells in me, he does the works.
14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father,
and the Father in me: or
else believe me for the very works' sake.
14:12 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, He that believes on me,
the works that I do shall he do also;
and greater works than these
shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
14:13 And whatsoever you shall ask in
my name, that will I do, that
the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14:14 If you shall ask any thing in my
name, I will do it.
14:15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
14:16 And I will pray the Father, and
he shall give you another
Comforter, that he may abide with you
forever;
14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom
the world cannot receive, because
it sees him not, neither knows him: but
you know him; for he dwells
with you, and shall be in you.
14:18 I will not leave you comfortless:
I will come to you.
14:19 yet a little while, and the world
sees me no more; but you see
me: because I live, you shall live also.
14:20 At that day you shall know that
I am in my Father, and you in
me, and I in you.
14:21 He that has my commandments, and
keeps them, he it is that loves
me: and he that loves me shall be loved
of my Father, and I will love
him, and will manifest myself to him.
14:22 Judas says unto him, not Iscariot,
Lord, how is it that you will
manifest yourself unto us, and not unto
the world?
14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him,
If a man love me, he will keep
my words: and my Father will love him,
and we will come unto him, and
make our abode with him.
14:24 He that loves me not keeps not
my sayings: and the word which
you hear is not mine, but the Father's
which sent me.
14:25 These things have I spoken unto
you, being yet present with you.
14:26 But the Comforter, which is the
Holy Ghost, whom the Father will
send in my name, he shall teach you all
things, and bring all things
to your remembrance, whatsoever I have
said unto you.
14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace
I give unto you: not as the
world gives, give I unto you. Let not
your heart be troubled, neither
let it be afraid.
14:28 You have heard how I said unto
you, I go away, and come again
unto you. If you loved me, you would
rejoice, because I said, I go
unto the Father: for my Father is greater
than I.
14:29 And now I have told you before
it come to pass, that, when it is
come to pass, you might believe.
14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much
with you: for the prince of this
world comes, and has nothing in me.
14:31 But that the world may know that
I love the Father; and as the
Father gave me commandment, even so I
do. Arise, let us go hence.
15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father
is the husbandman.
15:2 Every branch in me that bears not
fruit he takes away: and every
branch that bears fruit, he purges it,
that it may bring forth more
fruit.
15:3 Now you are clean through the word
which I have spoken unto you.
15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the
branch cannot bear fruit of
itself, unless it abide in the vine;
no more can you, unless you abide
in me.
15:5 I am the vine, you are the branches:
He that abides in me, and I
in him, the same brings forth much fruit:
for without me you can do
nothing.
15:6 If a man abide not in me, he is
cast forth as a branch, and is
withered; and men gather them, and cast
them into the fire, and they
are burned.
15:7 If you abide in me, and my words
abide in you, you shall ask what
you will, and it shall be done unto you.
15:8 Herein is my Father glorified, that
you bear much fruit; so shall
you be my disciples.
15:9 As the Father has loved me, so have
I loved you: continue you in
my love.
15:10 If you keep my commandments, you
shall abide in my love; just as
I have kept my Father's commandments,
and abide in his love.
15:11 These things have I spoken unto
you, that my joy might remain in
you, and that your joy might be full.
15:12 This is my commandment, That you
love one another, as I have
loved you.
15:13 Greater love has no man than this,
that a man lay down his life
for his friends.
15:14 You are my friends, if you do whatsoever
I command you.
15:15 Henceforth I call you not servants;
for the servant knows not
what his lord does: but I have called
you friends; for all things that
I have heard of my Father I have made
known unto you.
15:16 You have not chosen me, but I have
chosen you, and ordained you,
that you should go and bring forth fruit,
and that your fruit should
remain: that whatsoever you shall ask
of the Father in my name, he may
give it you.
15:17 These things I command you, that
you love one another.
15:18 If the world hate you, you know
that it hated me before it hated
you.
15:19 If you were of the world, the world
would love his own: but
because you are not of the world, but
I have chosen you out of the
world, therefore the world hates you.
15:20 Remember the word that I said unto
you, The servant is not
greater than his lord. If they have persecuted
me, they will also
persecute you; if they have kept my saying,
they will keep yours also.
15:21 But all these things will they
do unto you for my name's sake,
because they know not him that sent me.
15:22 If I had not come and spoken unto
them, they had not had sin:
but now they have no cloak for their
sin.
15:23 He that hates me hates my Father
also.
15:24 If I had not done among them the
works which none other man did,
they had not had sin: but now have they
both seen and hated both me
and my Father.
15:25 But this comes to pass, that the
word might be fulfilled that is
written in their law, They hated me without
a cause.
15:26 But when the Comforter is come,
whom I will send unto you from
the Father, even the Spirit of truth,
which proceeds from the Father,
he shall testify of me:
15:27 And you also shall bear witness,
because you have been with me
from the beginning.
16:1 These things have I spoken unto
you, that you should not be
offended.
16:2 They shall put you out of the synagogues:
yes, the time comes,
that whosoever kills you will think that
he does God service.
16:3 And these things will they do unto
you, because they have not
known the Father, nor me.
16:4 But these things have I told you,
that when the time shall come,
you may remember that I told you of them.
And these things I said not
unto you at the beginning, because I
was with you.
16:5 But now I go my way to him that
sent me; and none of you asks me,
Where do you go?
16:6 But because I have said these things
unto you, sorrow has filled
your heart.
16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth;
It is expedient for you that I
go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter
will not come unto you;
but if I depart, I will send him unto
you.
16:8 And when he is come, he will reprove
the world of sin, and of
righteousness, and of judgment:
16:9 Of sin, because they believe not
on me;
16:10 Of righteousness, because I go
to my Father, and you see me no
more;
16:11 Of judgment, because the prince
of this world is judged.
16:12 I have yet many things to say unto
you, but you cannot bear them
now.
16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of
truth, is come, he will guide you
into all truth: for he shall not speak
of himself; but whatsoever he
shall hear, that shall he speak: and
he will show you things to come.
16:14 He shall glorify me: for he shall
receive of mine, and shall
show it unto you.
16:15 All things that the Father has
are mine: therefore said I, that
he shall take of mine, and shall show
it unto you.
16:16 A little while, and you shall not
see me: and again, a little
while, and you shall see me, because
I go to the Father.
16:17 Then said some of his disciples
among themselves, What is this
that he says unto us, A little while,
and you shall not see me: and
again, a little while, and you shall
see me: and, Because I go to the
Father?
16:18 They said therefore, What is this
that he says, A little while?
we cannot tell what he says.
16:19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous
to ask him, and said unto
them, Do you inquire among yourselves
of that I said, A little while,
and you shall not see me: and again,
a little while, and you shall see
me?
16:20 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, That you shall weep and
lament, but the world shall rejoice:
and you shall be sorrowful, but
your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
16:21 A woman when she is in travail
has sorrow, because her hour is
come: but as soon as she is delivered
of the child, she remembers no
more the anguish, for joy that a man
is born into the world.
16:22 And you now therefore have sorrow:
but I will see you again, and
your heart shall rejoice, and your joy
no man takes from you.
16:23 And in that day you shall ask me
nothing. Truthfully,
truthfully, I say unto you, Whatsoever
you shall ask the Father in my
name, he will give it you.
16:24 Hitherto have you asked nothing
in my name: ask, and you shall
receive, that your joy may be full.
16:25 These things have I spoken unto
you in proverbs: but the time
comes, when I shall no more speak unto
you in proverbs, but I shall
show you plainly of the Father.
16:26 At that day you shall ask in my
name: and I say not unto you,
that I will pray the Father for you:
16:27 For the Father himself loves you,
because you have loved me, and
have believed that I came out from God.
16:28 I came forth from the Father, and
am come into the world: again,
I leave the world, and go to the Father.
16:29 His disciples said unto him, Lo,
now speak you plainly, and
speak no proverb.
16:30 Now are we sure that you know all
things, and need not that any
man should ask you: by this we believe
that you came forth from God.
16:31 Jesus answered them, Do you now
believe? 16:32 Behold, the hour
comes, yes, is now come, that you shall
be scattered, every man to his
own, and shall leave me alone: and yet
I am not alone, because the
Father is with me.
16:33 These things I have spoken unto
you, that in me you might have
peace. In the world you shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer;
I have overcome the world.
17:1 These words spoke Jesus, and lifted
up his eyes to heaven, and
said, Father, the hour is come; glorify
your Son, that your Son also
may glorify you:
17:2 As you have given him power over
all flesh, that he should give
eternal life to as many as you have given
him.
17:3 And this is life eternal, that they
might know you the only true
God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have
sent.
17:4 I have glorified you on the earth:
I have finished the work which
you gave me to do.
17:5 And now, O Father, glorify you me
with your own self with the
glory which I had with you before the
world was.
17:6 I have manifested your name unto
the men which you gave me out of
the world: your they were, and you gave
them me; and they have kept
your word.
17:7 Now they have known that all things
whatsoever you have given me
are of you.
17:8 For I have given unto them the words
which you gave me; and they
have received them, and have known surely
that I came out from you,
and they have believed that you did send
me.
17:9 I pray for them: I pray not for
the world, but for those who you
have given me; for they are your.
17:10 And all my are your, and your are
mine; and I am glorified in
them.
17:11 And now I am no more in the world,
but these are in the world,
and I come to you. Holy Father, keep
through your own name those whom
you have given me, that they may be one,
as we are.
17:12 While I was with them in the world,
I kept them in your name:
those that you gave me I have kept, and
none of them is lost, but the
son of perdition; that the scripture
might be fulfilled.
17:13 And now come I to you; and these
things I speak in the world,
that they might have my joy fulfilled
in themselves.
17:14 I have given them your word; and
the world has hated them,
because they are not of the world, just
as I am not of the world.
17:15 I pray not that you should take
them out of the world, but that
you should keep them from the evil.
17:16 They are not of the world, just
as I am not of the world.
17:17 Sanctify them through your truth:
your word is truth.
17:18 As you have sent me into the world,
even so have I also sent
them into the world.
17:19 And for their sakes I sanctify
myself, that they also might be
sanctified through the truth.
17:20 Neither pray I for these alone,
but for them also which shall
believe on me through their word;
17:21 That they all may be one; as you,
Father, are in me, and I in
you, that they also may be one in us:
that the world may believe that
you have sent me.
17:22 And the glory which you gave me
I have given them; that they may
be one, just as we are one:
17:23 I in them, and you in me, that
they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may know that you
have sent me, and have loved
them, as you have loved me.
17:24 Father, I will that they also,
whom you have given me, be with
me where I am; that they may behold my
glory, which you have given me:
for you loved me before the foundation
of the world.
17:25 O righteous Father, the world has
not known you: but I have
known you, and these have known that
you have sent me.
17:26 And I have declared unto them your
name, and will declare it:
that the love with which you have loved
me may be in them, and I in
them.
18:1 When Jesus had spoken these words,
he went forth with his
disciples over the brook Cedron, where
was a garden, into the which he
entered, and his disciples.
18:2 And Judas also, which betrayed him,
knew the place: for Jesus
frequently resorted to there with his
disciples.
18:3 Judas then, having received a band
of men and officers from the
chief priests and Pharisees, comes to
there with lanterns and torches
and weapons.
18:4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things
that should come upon him,
went forth, and said unto them, Whom
seek you?
18:5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth.
Jesus says unto them, I am
he. And Judas also, which betrayed him,
stood with them.
18:6 As soon then as he had said unto
them, I am he, they went
backward, and fell to the ground.
18:7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek
you? And they said, Jesus of
Nazareth.
18:8 Jesus answered, I have told you
that I am he: if therefore you
seek me, let these go their way:
18:9 That the saying might be fulfilled,
which he spoke, Of those who
you gave me have I lost none.
18:10 Then Simon Peter having a sword
drew it, and smote the high
priest's servant, and cut off his right
ear. The servant's name was
Malchus.
18:11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put
up your sword into the sheath:
the cup which my Father has given me,
shall I not drink it?
18:12 Then the band and the captain and
officers of the Jews took
Jesus, and bound him,
18:13 And led him away to Annas first;
for he was father in law to
Caiaphas, which was the high priest that
same year.
18:14 Now Caiaphas was he, which gave
counsel to the Jews, that it was
expedient that one man should die for
the people.
18:15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus,
and so did another disciple:
that disciple was known unto the high
priest, and went in with Jesus
into the palace of the high priest.
18:16 But Peter stood at the door outside.
Then went out that other
disciple, which was known unto the high
priest, and spoke unto her
that kept the door, and brought in Peter.
18:17 Then says the damsel that kept
the door unto Peter, Are not you
also one of this man's disciples? He
says, I am not.
18:18 And the servants and officers stood
there, who had made a fire
of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed
themselves: and Peter stood
with them, and warmed himself.
18:19 The high priest then asked Jesus
of his disciples, and of his
doctrine.
18:20 Jesus answered him, I spoke openly
to the world; I ever taught
in the synagogue, and in the temple,
to where the Jews always resort;
and in secret have I said nothing.
18:21 Why do you ask me? ask those who
heard me, what I have said unto
them: behold, they know what I said.
18:22 And when he had thus spoken, one
of the officers which stood by
struck Jesus with the palm of his hand,
saying, Do you answer the high
priest so?
18:23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken
evil, bear witness of the
evil: but if well, why do you smite me?
18:24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto
Caiaphas the high priest.
18:25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed
himself. They said therefore
unto him, Are not you also one of his
disciples? He denied it, and
said, I am not.
18:26 One of the servants of the high
priest, being his kinsman whose
ear Peter cut off, says, Did not I see
you in the garden with him?
18:27 Peter then denied again: and immediately
the cock crowed.
18:28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas
unto the hall of judgment: and
it was early; and they themselves went
not into the judgment hall,
lest they should be defiled; but that
they might eat the passover.
18:29 Pilate then went out unto them,
and said, What accusation bring
you against this man?
18:30 They answered and said unto him,
If he were not a malefactor, we
would not have delivered him up unto
you.
18:31 Then said Pilate unto them, Take
you him, and judge him
according to your law. The Jews therefore
said unto him, It is not
lawful for us to put any man to death:
18:32 That the saying of Jesus might
be fulfilled, which he spoke,
signifying what death he should die.
18:33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment
hall again, and called
Jesus, and said unto him, Are you the
King of the Jews?
18:34 Jesus answered him, Say you this
thing of yourself, or did
others tell it you of me?
18:35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Your
own nation and the chief
priests have delivered you unto me: what
have you done?
18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not
of this world: if my kingdom
were of this world, then would my servants
fight, that I should not be
delivered to the Jews: but now is my
kingdom not from here.
18:37 Pilate therefore said unto him,
Are you a king then? Jesus
answered, You say that I am a king. To
this end was I born, and for
this cause came I into the world, that
I should bear witness unto the
truth. Every one that is of the truth
hears my voice.
18:38 Pilate says unto him, What is truth?
And when he had said this,
he went out again unto the Jews, and
says unto them, I find in him no
fault at all.
18:39 But you have a custom, that I should
release unto you one at the
passover: will you therefore that I release
unto you the King of the
Jews?
18:40 Then cried they all again, saying,
Not this man, but Barabbas.
Now Barabbas was a robber.
19:1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus,
and whipped him.
19:2 And the soldiers platted a crown
of thorns, and put it on his
head, and they put on him a purple robe,
19:3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews!
and they smote him with their
hands.
19:4 Pilate therefore went forth again,
and says unto them, Behold, I
bring him forth to you, that you may
know that I find no fault in him.
19:5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the
crown of thorns, and the
purple robe. And Pilate says unto them,
Behold the man!
19:6 When the chief priests therefore
and officers saw him, they cried
out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.
Pilate says unto them, Take you
him, and crucify him: for I find no fault
in him.
19:7 The Jews answered him, We have a
law, and by our law he ought to
die, because he made himself the Son
of God.
19:8 When Pilate therefore heard that
saying, he was the more afraid;
19:9 And went again into the judgment
hall, and says unto Jesus, >From
where are you? But Jesus gave him no
answer.
19:10 Then says Pilate unto him, You
do not speak unto me? do you not
know that I have power to crucify you,
and have power to release you?
19:11 Jesus answered, You could have
no power at all against me,
unless it were given you from above:
therefore he that delivered me
unto you has the greater sin.
19:12 And from then on, Pilate sought
to release him: but the Jews
cried out, saying, If you let this man
go, you are not Caesar's
friend: whosoever makes himself a king
speaks against Caesar.
19:13 When Pilate therefore heard that
saying, he brought Jesus forth,
and sat down in the judgment seat in
a place that is called the
Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.
19:14 And it was the preparation of the
passover, and about the sixth
hour: and he says unto the Jews, Behold
your King!
19:15 But they cried out, Away with him,
away with him, crucify him.
Pilate says unto them, Shall I crucify
your King? The chief priests
answered, We have no king but Caesar.
19:16 Then delivered he him therefore
unto them to be crucified. And
they took Jesus, and led him away.
19:17 And he bearing his cross went forth
into a place called the
place of a skull, which is called in
the Hebrew Golgotha:
19:18 Where they crucified him, and two
other with him, on either side
one, and Jesus in the midst.
19:19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put
it on the cross. And the
writing was JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING
OF THE JEWS.
19:20 This title then read many of the
Jews: for the place where Jesus
was crucified was close to the city:
and it was written in Hebrew, and
Greek, and Latin.
19:21 Then said the chief priests of
the Jews to Pilate, Write not,
The King of the Jews; but that he said,
I am King of the Jews.
19:22 Pilate answered, What I have written
I have written.
19:23 Then the soldiers, when they had
crucified Jesus, took his
garments, and made four parts, to every
soldier a part; and also his
coat: now the coat was without seam,
woven from the top throughout.
19:24 They said therefore among themselves,
Let us not tear it, but
cast lots for it, whose it shall be:
that the scripture might be
fulfilled, which says, They parted my
clothing among them, and for my
vesture they did cast lots. These things
therefore the soldiers did.
19:25 Now there stood by the cross of
Jesus his mother, and his
mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas,
and Mary Magdalene.
19:26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother,
and the disciple standing
by, whom he loved, he says unto his mother,
Woman, behold your son!
19:27 Then says he to the disciple, Behold
your mother! And from that
hour that disciple took her unto his
own home.
19:28 After this, Jesus knowing that
all things were now accomplished,
that the scripture might be fulfilled,
says, I thirst.
19:29 Now there was set a vessel full
of vinegar: and they filled a
sponge with vinegar, and put it upon
hyssop, and put it to his mouth.
19:30 When Jesus therefore had received
the vinegar, he said, It is
finished: and he bowed his head, and
gave up the ghost.
19:31 The Jews therefore, because it
was the preparation, that the
bodies should not remain upon the cross
on the sabbath day, (for that
sabbath day was a high day,) asked Pilate
that their legs might be
broken, and that they might be taken
away.
19:32 Then came the soldiers, and broke
the legs of the first, and of
the other which was crucified with him.
19:33 But when they came to Jesus, and
saw that he was dead already,
they broke not his legs:
19:34 But one of the soldiers with a
spear pierced his side, and
immediately came there out blood and
water.
19:35 And he that saw it bore record,
and his record is true: and he
knows that he says true, that you might
believe.
19:36 For these things were done, that
the scripture should be
fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be
broken.
19:37 And again another scripture says,
They shall look on him whom
they pierced.
19:38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea,
being a disciple of Jesus,
but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked
Pilate that he might take
away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave
him leave. He came therefore,
and took the body of Jesus.
19:39 And there came also Nicodemus,
which at the first came to Jesus
by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh
and aloes, about a hundred
pound weight.
19:40 Then took they the body of Jesus,
and wound it in linen clothes
with the spices, as the manner of the
Jews is to bury.
19:41 Now in the place where he was crucified
there was a garden; and
in the garden a new sepulcher, in which
was never man yet laid.
19:42 There laid they Jesus therefore
because of the Jews' preparation
day; for the sepulcher was close at hand.
20:1 The first day of the week comes
Mary Magdalene early, when it was
yet dark, unto the sepulcher, and sees
the stone taken away from the
sepulcher.
20:2 Then she runs, and comes to Simon
Peter, and to the other
disciple, whom Jesus loved, and says
unto them, They have taken away
the LORD out of the sepulcher, and we
know not where they have laid
him.
20:3 Peter therefore went forth, and
that other disciple, and came to
the sepulcher.
20:4 So they ran both together: and the
other disciple did outrun
Peter, and came first to the sepulcher.
20:5 And he stooping down, and looking
in, saw the linen clothes
lying; yet went he not in.
20:6 Then comes Simon Peter following
him, and went into the
sepulcher, and sees the linen clothes
lie,
20:7 And the napkin, that was about his
head, not lying with the linen
clothes, but wrapped together in a place
by itself.
20:8 Then went in also that other disciple,
which came first to the
sepulcher, and he saw, and believed.
20:9 For as yet they did not know the
scripture, that he must rise
again from the dead.
20:10 Then the disciples went away again
unto their own home.
20:11 But Mary stood outside at the sepulcher
weeping: and as she
wept, she stooped down, and looked into
the sepulcher,
20:12 And sees two angels in white sitting,
the one at the head, and
the other at the feet, where the body
of Jesus had lain.
20:13 And they say unto her, Woman, why
do you weep? She says unto
them, Because they have taken away my
LORD, and I do not know where
they have laid him.
20:14 And when she had thus said, she
turned herself back, and saw
Jesus standing, and did not know that
it was Jesus.
20:15 Jesus says unto her, Woman, why
do you weep? whom do you seek?
She, supposing him to be the gardener,
says unto him, Sir, if you have
carried him from here, tell me where
you have laid him, and I will
take him away.
20:16 Jesus says unto her, Mary. She
turned herself, and says unto
him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
20:17 Jesus says unto her, Touch me not;
for I am not yet ascended to
my Father: but go to my brothers, and
say unto them, I ascend unto my
Father, and your Father; and to my God,
and your God.
20:18 Mary Magdalene came and told the
disciples that she had seen the
LORD, and that he had spoken these things
unto her.
20:19 Then the same day at evening, being
the first day of the week,
when the doors were shut where the disciples
were assembled for fear
of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in
the midst, and says unto them,
Peace be unto you.
20:20 And when he had so said, he showed
unto them his hands and his
side. Then were the disciples glad, when
they saw the LORD.
20:21 Then said Jesus to them again,
Peace be unto you: as my Father
has sent me, even so send I you.
20:22 And when he had said this, he breathed
on them, and says unto
them, Receive you the Holy Ghost:
20:23 Whose soever sins you remit, they
are remitted unto them; and
whose soever sins you retain, they are
retained.
20:24 But Thomas, one of the twelve,
called Didymus, was not with them
when Jesus came.
20:25 The other disciples therefore said
unto him, We have seen the
LORD. But he said unto them, Unless I
shall see in his hands the print
of the nails, and put my finger into
the print of the nails, and
thrust my hand into his side, I will
not believe.
20:26 And after eight days again his
disciples were within, and Thomas
with them: then came Jesus, the doors
being shut, and stood in the
midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
20:27 Then says he to Thomas, Reach to
here your finger, and behold my
hands; and reach to here your hand, and
thrust it into my side: and be
not faithless, but believing.
20:28 And Thomas answered and said unto
him, My LORD and my God.
20:29 Jesus says unto him, Thomas, because
you have seen me, you have
believed: blessed are they that have
not seen, and yet have believed.
20:30 And many other signs truly did
Jesus in the presence of his
disciples, which are not written in this
book:
20:31 But these are written, that you
might believe that Jesus is the
Christ, the Son of God; and that believing
you might have life through
his name.
21:1 After these things Jesus showed
himself again to the disciples at
the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise
showed he himself.
21:2 There were together Simon Peter,
and Thomas called Didymus, and
Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the
sons of Zebedee, and two other
of his disciples.
21:3 Simon Peter says unto them, I go
a fishing. They say unto him, We
also go with you. They went forth, and
entered into a boat
immediately; and that night they caught
nothing.
21:4 But when the morning was now come,
Jesus stood on the shore: but
the disciples did not know that it was
Jesus.
21:5 Then Jesus says unto them, Children,
have you any food? They
answered him, No.
21:6 And he said unto them, Cast the
net on the right side of the
boat, and you shall find. They cast therefore,
and now they were not
able to draw it for the multitude of
fishes.
21:7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus
loved says unto Peter, It is
the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard
that it was the Lord, he girt his
fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,)
and did cast himself into
the sea.
21:8 And the other disciples came in
a little boat; (for they were not
far from land, but as it were two hundred
cubits,) dragging the net
with fishes.
21:9 As soon then as they had come to
land, they saw a fire of coals
there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.
21:10 Jesus says unto them, Bring of
the fish which you have now
caught.
21:11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the
net to land full of great
fishes, a hundred and fifty and three:
and for all there were so many,
yet was not the net broken.
21:12 Jesus says unto them, Come and
dine. And none of the disciples
dared ask him, Who are you? knowing that
it was the Lord.
21:13 Jesus then comes, and takes bread,
and gives them, and fish
likewise.
21:14 This is now the third time that
Jesus showed himself to his
disciples, after he was risen from the
dead.
21:15 So when they had dined, Jesus says
to Simon Peter, Simon, son of
Jonas, do you love me more than these?
He says unto him, Yes, Lord;
you know that I love you. He says unto
him, Feed my lambs.
21:16 He says to him again the second
time, Simon, son of Jonas, do
you love me? He says unto him, Yes, Lord;
you know that I love you. He
says unto him, Feed my sheep.
21:17 He says unto him the third time,
Simon, son of Jonas, love you
me? Peter was grieved because he said
unto him the third time, Do you
love me? And he said unto him, Lord,
you know all things; you know
that I love you. Jesus says unto him,
Feed my sheep.
21:18 Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto
you, When you were young, you
girded yourself, and walked to where
you would: but when you shall be
old, you shall stretch forth your hands,
and another shall gird you,
and carry you to where you would not.
21:19 This spoke he, signifying by what
death he should glorify God.
And when he had spoken this, he says
unto him, Follow me.
21:20 Then Peter, turning about, sees
the disciple whom Jesus loved
following; which also leaned on his breast
at supper, and said, Lord,
which is he that betrays you?
21:21 Peter seeing him says to Jesus,
Lord, and what shall this man
do?
21:22 Jesus says unto him, If I will
that he tarry till I come, what
is that to you? follow you me.
21:23 Then went this saying abroad among
the brothers, that that
disciple should not die: yet Jesus said
not unto him, He shall not
die; but, If I will that he tarry till
I come, what is that to you?
21:24 This is the disciple which testifies
of these things, and wrote
these things: and we know that his testimony
is true.
21:25 And there are also many other things
which Jesus did, the which,
if they should be written every one,
I suppose that even the world
itself could not contain the books that
should be written. Amen.
