1:
AFTER these things Jesus walked in Galilee; for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2:
Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.
3:
And his brethren said to him: Pass from hence, and go into Judea; that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou dost.
4:
For there is no man that doth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, manifest thyself to the world.
5:
For neither did his brethren believe in him.
6:
Then Jesus said to them: My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready.
7:
The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth: because I give testimony of it, that the works thereof are evil.
8:
Go you up to this festival day, but I go not up to this festival day: because my time is not accomplished.
9:
When he had said these things, he himself stayed in Galilee.
10:
But after his brethren were gone up, then he also went up to the feast, not openly, but, as it were, in secret.
11:
The Jews therefore sought him on the festival day, and said: Where is he?
12:
And there was much murmuring among the multitude concerning him. For some said: He is a good man. And others said: No, but he seduceth the people.
13:
Yet no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.
14:
Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
15:
And the Jews wondered, saying: How doth this man know letters, having never learned?
16:
Jesus answered them, and said: My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17:
If any man do the will of him; he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
18:
He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and there is no injustice in him.
19:
Did Moses not give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law?
20:
Why seek you to kill me? The multitude answered, and said: Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to kill thee?
21:
Jesus answered, and said to them: One work I have done; and you all wonder:
22:
Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man.
23:
If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day?
24:
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge just judgment.
25:
Some therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
26:
And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers known for a truth, that this is the Christ?
27:
But we know this man, whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
28:
Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching, and saying: You both know me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself; but he that sent me, is true, whom you know not.
29:
I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.
30:
They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31:
But of the people many believed in him, and said: When the Christ cometh, shall he do more miracles, than these which this man doth?
32:
The Pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning him: and the rulers and Pharisees sent ministers to apprehend him.
33:
Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me.
34:
You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither you cannot come.
35:
The Jews therefore said among themselves: Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
36:
What is this saying that he hath said: You shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, you cannot come?
37:
And on the last, and great day of the festivity, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.
38:
He that believeth in me, as the scripture saith, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
39:
Now this he said of the Spirit which they should receive, who believed in him: for as yet the Spirit was not given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
40:
Of that multitude therefore, when they had heard these words of his, some said: This is the prophet indeed.
41:
Others said: This is the Christ. But some said: Doth the Christ come out of Galilee?
42:
Doth not the scripture say: That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem the town where David was?
43:
So there arose a dissension among the people because of him.
44:
And some of them would have apprehended him: but no man laid hands on him.
45:
The ministers therefore came to the chief priests and the Pharisees. And they said to them: Why have you not brought him?
46:
The ministers answered: Never did man speak like this man.
47:
The Pharisees therefore answered them: Are you also seduced?
48:
Hath any one of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees?
49:
But this multitude, that knoweth not the law, are accursed.
50:
Nicodemus said to them, (he that came to him by night, who was one of them:)
51:
Doth our law judge any man, unless it first hear him, and know what he doth?
52:
They answered, and said to him: Art thou also a Galilean? Search the scriptures, and see, that out of Galilee a prophet riseth not.
53:
And every man returned to his own house.
