Chapter 7

1 AFTER these things Jesus travelled in Galilee; for he did not wish to travel in Judaea, because the Jews wanted to kill him.

2 Now the Jewish feast of the tabernacles was at hand.

3 And his brothers said to Jesus, Depart from here and go to Judaea, so that your disciples may see the works that you do.

4 For there is no man, who does anything in secret and yet wants it to become known. If you are doing these things, show yourself to the people.

5 For not even his own brothers believed in Jesus.

6 Jesus said to them, My time has not yet come; but your time is always ready.

7 The world cannot hate you; but it hates me, because I testify against it, that its works are evil.

8 You go up to this feast; I am not going just now to this feast, for my time is not yet come.

9 He said these things, and remained in Galilee.

10 But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not openly, but as it were in secret.

11 The Jews were looking for him at the feast and said, Where is he?

12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him; for some said, He is good; and others said, No, but he just deceives the people.

13 But no man spoke openly about him, because of the fear of the Jews.

14 Now about the middle period of the feast, Jesus went up to the temple and taught.

15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How does this man know reading, when he has not been instructed?

16 Jesus answered and said, My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

17 He who wills to do his will, he will understand if my teaching is from God, or if I am just speaking of my own accord.

18 He who speaks of his own accord seeks glory for himself; but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him, he is true, and there is no deception in his heart.

19 Did not Moses give you the law? and yet no one of you obeys the law. Why do you want to kill me?

20 The people answered, saying, You are crazy; who wants to kill you?

21 Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and all of you marvel.

22 Moses gave you circumcision, not because it is from Moses, but because it is from the forefathers; and yet you circumcise a man on the sabbath.

23 So if a man is circumcised on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; yet you murmur at me, because I healed a whole man * on the sabbath day?

24 Do not judge by partiality, but judge a just judgment.

25 Then some of the men of Jerusalem were saying, Is not this the man whom they want to kill?

26 And yet he speaks openly, but they say nothing to him. Perhaps our elders have found out that he is the Christ?

27 Howbeit we know whence he comes; but when the Christ comes, no man will know whence he comes.

28 Jesus then lifted up his voice as he taught in the temple, and said, You know me, and you know whence I come; and yet I have not come of my own accord, but he who sent me is true, whom you do not know.

29 But I know him; because I am from him, and he sent me.

30 So they wanted to seize him; and no man laid hands on him, because his time had not yet come.

31 But a great many of the people believed in him and said, When the Christ comes, why, will he do greater wonders than this man does?

32 The Pharisees heard the people talking about him; so they and the high priests sent soldiers to arrest him.

33 And Jesus said, I am with you just a short while, and I am going to him who sent me.

34 You will seek me, but you will not find me; and where I am you cannot come.

35 Then the Jews said among themselves, Where is he going, that we cannot find him? why, is he planning to go to the countries of the Gentiles, to teach the pagans?

36 What does this word mean which he said, You will seek me and you will not find me; and where I am you cannot come?

37 Now on the greatest day, which is the last day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out and said, If any man is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.

38 Whoever believes in me, just as the scriptures have said, the rivers of living water shall flow from within him.

39 He said this concerning the Spirit, which they who believe in him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

40 Many of the people who heard his words were saying, This man truly is a prophet.

41 Others were saying, He is the Christ; but others said, Is it possible that Christ should come from Galilee?

42 Does not the scripture say that Christ will come from the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the town of David?

43 So the people were divided because of him.

44 And there were some men among them, who wanted to seize him; but no man laid hands on him.

45 And the soldiers returned to the high priests and the Pharisees; and the priests said to them, Why did you not bring him?

46 The soldiers said to them, Never a man has spoken as this man speaks.

47 The Pharisees said to them, Why, have you also been deceived?

48 Why, have any of the leaders or of the Pharisees believed in him,

49 Except this cursed people, who do not know the law?

50 Nicodemus, one of them, who had come to Jesus at night, said to them,

51 Does our law convict a man, unless it first hears from him, and knows what he has done?

52 They answered and said to him, Why, are you also from Galilee? * Search and see that no prophet will rise up from Galilee.

53 So everyone went to his own house.

Chapter 7

1 After3326 these5023 things Jesus2424 walked4043 in Galilee:1056 for he would2309 not walk4043 in Jewry,2449 because3754 the Jews2453 sought2212 to kill615 him.

2 Now1161 the Jew's2453 feast1859 of tabernacles4634 was at1451 hand.1451

3 His brothers80 therefore3767 said2036 to him, Depart3327 hence,1782 and go5217 into1519 Judaea,2449 that your disciples3101 also2532 may see2334 the works2041 that you do.4160

4 For there is no3762 man3762 that does4160 any5100 thing in secret,2927 and he himself846 seeks2212 to be known openly.1722 3954 If1487 you do4160 these5023 things, show5319 yourself4572 to the world.2889

5 For neither3761 did his brothers80 believe4100 in him.

6 Then3767 Jesus2424 said3004 to them, My time2540 is not yet3768 come:3918 but your5212 time2540 is always3842 ready.2092

7 The world2889 cannot3756 1410 hate3404 you; but me it hates,3404 because3754 I testify3140 of it, that the works2041 thereof3012 846 are evil.4190

8 Go305 you up to this5026 feast:1859 I go305 not up yet3768 to this5026 feast:1859 for my time2540 is not yet3768 full4137 come.4137

9 When he had said2036 these5023 words to them, he stayed3306 still in Galilee.1056

10 But when5613 his brothers80 were gone305 up, then5119 went305 he also2532 up to the feast,1859 not openly,5320 but as it were in secret.2927

11 Then3767 the Jews2453 sought2212 him at1722 the feast,1859 and said,3004 Where4226 is he?

12 And there was much4183 murmuring1112 among1722 the people3793 concerning4012 him: for some3588 3303 said,3004 He is a good18 man: others243 said,3004 No;3756 but he deceives4105 the people.3793

13 However,3305 no3762 man3762 spoke2980 openly3954 of him for fear5401 of the Jews.2453

14 Now2235 about the middle3322 of the feast1859 Jesus2424 went305 up into1519 the temple,2411 and taught.1321

15 And the Jews2453 marveled,2296 saying,3004 How4459 knows1492 this3778 man letters,1121 having never3361 learned?3129

16 Jesus2424 answered611 them, and said,2036 My doctrine1322 is not mine,1699 but his that sent3992 me.

17 If1437 any5100 man will2309 do4160 his will,2307 he shall know1097 of the doctrine,1322 whether4220 it be of God,2316 or2228 whether I speak2980 of myself.1683

18 He that speaks2980 of himself1438 seeks2212 his own2398 glory:1391 but he that seeks2212 his glory1391 that sent3992 him, the same3778 is true,227 and no3756 unrighteousness93 is in him.

19 Did not Moses3475 give1325 you the law,3551 and yet none3762 of you keeps4160 the law?3551 Why5101 go2212 you about2212 to kill615 me?

20 The people3793 answered611 and said,2036 You have2192 a devil:1140 who5101 goes2212 about2212 to kill615 you?

21 Jesus2424 answered611 and said2036 to them, I have2192 done4160 one1520 work,2041 and you all3956 marvel.2296

22 Moses3475 therefore1223 5124 gave1325 to you circumcision;4061 (not because3754 it is of Moses,3475 but of the fathers;3962) and you on1722 the sabbath4521 day circumcise4059 a man.444

23 If1487 a man444 on1722 the sabbath4521 day receive2983 circumcision,4061 that the law3551 of Moses3475 should not be broken;3089 are you angry5520 at me, because3754 I have2192 made4160 a man444 every3650 whit3650 whole5199 on1722 the sabbath4521 day?

24 Judge2919 not according2596 to the appearance,3799 but judge2919 righteous1342 judgment.2920

25 Then3767 said3004 some5100 of them of Jerusalem,2414 Is not this3778 he, whom3739 they seek2212 to kill?615

26 But, see,2396 he speaks2980 boldly,3954 and they say3004 nothing3762 to him. Do the rulers758 know1097 indeed230 that this3778 is the very230 Christ?5547

27 However,235 we know1492 this5126 man from where4159 he is: but when3752 Christ5547 comes,2064 no3762 man3762 knows1097 from where4159 he is.

28 Then3767 cried2896 Jesus2424 in the temple2411 as he taught,1321 saying,3004 You both2532 know1492 me, and you know1492 from where4159 I am:1510 and I am not come2064 of myself,1683 but he that sent3992 me is true,228 whom3739 you know1492 not.

29 But I know1492 him: for I am1510 from him, and he has sent649 me.

30 Then3767 they sought2212 to take4084 him: but no3762 man3762 laid1911 hands5495 on1909 him, because3754 his hour5610 was not yet3768 come.2064

31 And many4183 of the people3793 believed4100 on1519 him, and said,3004 When3752 Christ5547 comes,2064 will he do4160 more4119 miracles4592 than these5130 which3739 this3778 man has done?4160

32 The Pharisees5330 heard191 that the people3793 murmured1111 such5023 things concerning4012 him; and the Pharisees5330 and the chief749 priests749 sent649 officers5257 to take4084 him.

33 Then3767 said2036 Jesus2424 to them, Yet2089 a little3398 while5550 am1510 I with you, and then3767 I go5217 to him that sent3992 me.

34 You shall seek2212 me, and shall not find2147 me: and where3699 I am,1510 thither you cannot3756 1410 come.2064

35 Then3767 said2036 the Jews2453 among4314 themselves,1438 Where4226 will3195 he go,4198 that we shall not find2147 him? will3195 he go4198 to the dispersed1290 among the Gentiles,1672 and teach1321 the Gentiles?1672

36 What5101 manner of saying3056 is this3778 that he said,2036 You shall seek me, and shall not find2147 me: and where3699 I am,1510 thither you cannot3756 1410 come?2064

37 In the last2078 day,2250 that great3173 day of the feast,1859 Jesus2424 stood2476 and cried,2896 saying,3004 If1437 any5100 man thirst,1372 let him come2064 to me, and drink.4095

38 He that believes4100 on1519 me, as the scripture1124 has said,2036 out of his belly2836 shall flow4482 rivers4215 of living2198 water.5204

39 (But this5124 spoke2036 he of the Spirit,4151 which3739 they that believe4100 on1519 him should3195 receive:2983 for the Holy40 Ghost4151 was not yet3768 given; because3754 that Jesus2424 was not yet3764 glorified.1392)

40 Many4183 of the people3793 therefore,3767 when they heard191 this3588 saying,3056 said,3004 Of a truth230 this3778 is the Prophet.4396

41 Others243 said,3004 This3778 is the Christ.5547 But some243 said,3004 Shall Christ5547 come2064 out of Galilee?1056

42 Has not the scripture1124 said,2036 That Christ5547 comes2064 of the seed4690 of David,1138 and out of the town2968 of Bethlehem,965 where3699 David1138 was?

43 So3767 there was a division4978 among1722 the people3793 because1223 of him.

44 And some5100 of them would2309 have taken4084 him; but no3762 man3762 laid1911 hands5495 on1909 him.

45 Then3767 came2064 the officers5257 to the chief749 priests749 and Pharisees;5330 and they said2036 to them, Why1302 have you not brought71 him?

46 The officers5257 answered,611 Never3763 man444 spoke2980 like3779 this3778 man.444

47 Then3767 answered611 them the Pharisees,5330 Are you also2532 deceived?4105

48 Have any3387 of the rulers758 or2228 of the Pharisees5330 believed4100 on1519 him?

49 But this3778 people3793 who3588 knows1097 not the law3551 are cursed.1944

50 Nicodemus3530 said3004 to them, (he that came2064 to Jesus846 by night,3571 being5607 one1520 of them,)

51 Does our law3551 judge2919 any3588 man,444 before3362 4386 it hear191 him, and know1097 what5101 he does?4160

52 They answered611 and said2036 to him, Are1488 you also2532 of Galilee?1056 Search,2045 and look:1492 for out of Galilee1056 rises1453 no3756 prophet.4396

53 And every1538 man went4198 to his own house.3624

Chapter 7

1 AFTER these things Jesus travelled in Galilee; for he did not wish to travel in Judaea, because the Jews wanted to kill him.

1 After3326 these5023 things Jesus2424 walked4043 in Galilee:1056 for he would2309 not walk4043 in Jewry,2449 because3754 the Jews2453 sought2212 to kill615 him.

2 Now the Jewish feast of the tabernacles was at hand.

2 Now1161 the Jew's2453 feast1859 of tabernacles4634 was at1451 hand.1451

3 And his brothers said to Jesus, Depart from here and go to Judaea, so that your disciples may see the works that you do.

3 His brothers80 therefore3767 said2036 to him, Depart3327 hence,1782 and go5217 into1519 Judaea,2449 that your disciples3101 also2532 may see2334 the works2041 that you do.4160

4 For there is no man, who does anything in secret and yet wants it to become known. If you are doing these things, show yourself to the people.

4 For there is no3762 man3762 that does4160 any5100 thing in secret,2927 and he himself846 seeks2212 to be known openly.1722 3954 If1487 you do4160 these5023 things, show5319 yourself4572 to the world.2889

5 For not even his own brothers believed in Jesus.

5 For neither3761 did his brothers80 believe4100 in him.

6 Jesus said to them, My time has not yet come; but your time is always ready.

6 Then3767 Jesus2424 said3004 to them, My time2540 is not yet3768 come:3918 but your5212 time2540 is always3842 ready.2092

7 The world cannot hate you; but it hates me, because I testify against it, that its works are evil.

7 The world2889 cannot3756 1410 hate3404 you; but me it hates,3404 because3754 I testify3140 of it, that the works2041 thereof3012 846 are evil.4190

8 You go up to this feast; I am not going just now to this feast, for my time is not yet come.

8 Go305 you up to this5026 feast:1859 I go305 not up yet3768 to this5026 feast:1859 for my time2540 is not yet3768 full4137 come.4137

9 He said these things, and remained in Galilee.

9 When he had said2036 these5023 words to them, he stayed3306 still in Galilee.1056

10 But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not openly, but as it were in secret.

10 But when5613 his brothers80 were gone305 up, then5119 went305 he also2532 up to the feast,1859 not openly,5320 but as it were in secret.2927

11 The Jews were looking for him at the feast and said, Where is he?

11 Then3767 the Jews2453 sought2212 him at1722 the feast,1859 and said,3004 Where4226 is he?

12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him; for some said, He is good; and others said, No, but he just deceives the people.

12 And there was much4183 murmuring1112 among1722 the people3793 concerning4012 him: for some3588 3303 said,3004 He is a good18 man: others243 said,3004 No;3756 but he deceives4105 the people.3793

13 But no man spoke openly about him, because of the fear of the Jews.

13 However,3305 no3762 man3762 spoke2980 openly3954 of him for fear5401 of the Jews.2453

14 Now about the middle period of the feast, Jesus went up to the temple and taught.

14 Now2235 about the middle3322 of the feast1859 Jesus2424 went305 up into1519 the temple,2411 and taught.1321

15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How does this man know reading, when he has not been instructed?

15 And the Jews2453 marveled,2296 saying,3004 How4459 knows1492 this3778 man letters,1121 having never3361 learned?3129

16 Jesus answered and said, My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

16 Jesus2424 answered611 them, and said,2036 My doctrine1322 is not mine,1699 but his that sent3992 me.

17 He who wills to do his will, he will understand if my teaching is from God, or if I am just speaking of my own accord.

17 If1437 any5100 man will2309 do4160 his will,2307 he shall know1097 of the doctrine,1322 whether4220 it be of God,2316 or2228 whether I speak2980 of myself.1683

18 He who speaks of his own accord seeks glory for himself; but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him, he is true, and there is no deception in his heart.

18 He that speaks2980 of himself1438 seeks2212 his own2398 glory:1391 but he that seeks2212 his glory1391 that sent3992 him, the same3778 is true,227 and no3756 unrighteousness93 is in him.

19 Did not Moses give you the law? and yet no one of you obeys the law. Why do you want to kill me?

19 Did not Moses3475 give1325 you the law,3551 and yet none3762 of you keeps4160 the law?3551 Why5101 go2212 you about2212 to kill615 me?

20 The people answered, saying, You are crazy; who wants to kill you?

20 The people3793 answered611 and said,2036 You have2192 a devil:1140 who5101 goes2212 about2212 to kill615 you?

21 Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and all of you marvel.

21 Jesus2424 answered611 and said2036 to them, I have2192 done4160 one1520 work,2041 and you all3956 marvel.2296

22 Moses gave you circumcision, not because it is from Moses, but because it is from the forefathers; and yet you circumcise a man on the sabbath.

22 Moses3475 therefore1223 5124 gave1325 to you circumcision;4061 (not because3754 it is of Moses,3475 but of the fathers;3962) and you on1722 the sabbath4521 day circumcise4059 a man.444

23 So if a man is circumcised on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; yet you murmur at me, because I healed a whole man * on the sabbath day?

23 If1487 a man444 on1722 the sabbath4521 day receive2983 circumcision,4061 that the law3551 of Moses3475 should not be broken;3089 are you angry5520 at me, because3754 I have2192 made4160 a man444 every3650 whit3650 whole5199 on1722 the sabbath4521 day?

24 Do not judge by partiality, but judge a just judgment.

24 Judge2919 not according2596 to the appearance,3799 but judge2919 righteous1342 judgment.2920

25 Then some of the men of Jerusalem were saying, Is not this the man whom they want to kill?

25 Then3767 said3004 some5100 of them of Jerusalem,2414 Is not this3778 he, whom3739 they seek2212 to kill?615

26 And yet he speaks openly, but they say nothing to him. Perhaps our elders have found out that he is the Christ?

26 But, see,2396 he speaks2980 boldly,3954 and they say3004 nothing3762 to him. Do the rulers758 know1097 indeed230 that this3778 is the very230 Christ?5547

27 Howbeit we know whence he comes; but when the Christ comes, no man will know whence he comes.

27 However,235 we know1492 this5126 man from where4159 he is: but when3752 Christ5547 comes,2064 no3762 man3762 knows1097 from where4159 he is.

28 Jesus then lifted up his voice as he taught in the temple, and said, You know me, and you know whence I come; and yet I have not come of my own accord, but he who sent me is true, whom you do not know.

28 Then3767 cried2896 Jesus2424 in the temple2411 as he taught,1321 saying,3004 You both2532 know1492 me, and you know1492 from where4159 I am:1510 and I am not come2064 of myself,1683 but he that sent3992 me is true,228 whom3739 you know1492 not.

29 But I know him; because I am from him, and he sent me.

29 But I know1492 him: for I am1510 from him, and he has sent649 me.

30 So they wanted to seize him; and no man laid hands on him, because his time had not yet come.

30 Then3767 they sought2212 to take4084 him: but no3762 man3762 laid1911 hands5495 on1909 him, because3754 his hour5610 was not yet3768 come.2064

31 But a great many of the people believed in him and said, When the Christ comes, why, will he do greater wonders than this man does?

31 And many4183 of the people3793 believed4100 on1519 him, and said,3004 When3752 Christ5547 comes,2064 will he do4160 more4119 miracles4592 than these5130 which3739 this3778 man has done?4160

32 The Pharisees heard the people talking about him; so they and the high priests sent soldiers to arrest him.

32 The Pharisees5330 heard191 that the people3793 murmured1111 such5023 things concerning4012 him; and the Pharisees5330 and the chief749 priests749 sent649 officers5257 to take4084 him.

33 And Jesus said, I am with you just a short while, and I am going to him who sent me.

33 Then3767 said2036 Jesus2424 to them, Yet2089 a little3398 while5550 am1510 I with you, and then3767 I go5217 to him that sent3992 me.

34 You will seek me, but you will not find me; and where I am you cannot come.

34 You shall seek2212 me, and shall not find2147 me: and where3699 I am,1510 thither you cannot3756 1410 come.2064

36 What does this word mean which he said, You will seek me and you will not find me; and where I am you cannot come?

36 What5101 manner of saying3056 is this3778 that he said,2036 You shall seek me, and shall not find2147 me: and where3699 I am,1510 thither you cannot3756 1410 come?2064

38 He that believes4100 on1519 me, as the scripture1124 has said,2036 out of his belly2836 shall flow4482 rivers4215 of living2198 water.5204

39 He said this concerning the Spirit, which they who believe in him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

39 (But this5124 spoke2036 he of the Spirit,4151 which3739 they that believe4100 on1519 him should3195 receive:2983 for the Holy40 Ghost4151 was not yet3768 given; because3754 that Jesus2424 was not yet3764 glorified.1392)

40 Many of the people who heard his words were saying, This man truly is a prophet.

40 Many4183 of the people3793 therefore,3767 when they heard191 this3588 saying,3056 said,3004 Of a truth230 this3778 is the Prophet.4396

41 Others were saying, He is the Christ; but others said, Is it possible that Christ should come from Galilee?

43 So the people were divided because of him.

43 So3767 there was a division4978 among1722 the people3793 because1223 of him.

44 And there were some men among them, who wanted to seize him; but no man laid hands on him.

44 And some5100 of them would2309 have taken4084 him; but no3762 man3762 laid1911 hands5495 on1909 him.

45 And the soldiers returned to the high priests and the Pharisees; and the priests said to them, Why did you not bring him?

45 Then3767 came2064 the officers5257 to the chief749 priests749 and Pharisees;5330 and they said2036 to them, Why1302 have you not brought71 him?

46 The soldiers said to them, Never a man has spoken as this man speaks.

46 The officers5257 answered,611 Never3763 man444 spoke2980 like3779 this3778 man.444

47 The Pharisees said to them, Why, have you also been deceived?

48 Why, have any of the leaders or of the Pharisees believed in him,

48 Have any3387 of the rulers758 or2228 of the Pharisees5330 believed4100 on1519 him?

49 Except this cursed people, who do not know the law?

51 Does our law convict a man, unless it first hears from him, and knows what he has done?

51 Does our law3551 judge2919 any3588 man,444 before3362 4386 it hear191 him, and know1097 what5101 he does?4160

52 They answered and said to him, Why, are you also from Galilee? * Search and see that no prophet will rise up from Galilee.

52 They answered611 and said2036 to him, Are1488 you also2532 of Galilee?1056 Search,2045 and look:1492 for out of Galilee1056 rises1453 no3756 prophet.4396
