John 5:20-46

²⁰For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth to him all things that he doeth; and he shall show to him greater works than these, that ye wonder.

²¹For as the Father raiseth dead men, and quickeneth, so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

²²For neither the Father judgeth any man, but hath given every doom to the Son,

²³that all men honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father that sent him.

²⁴Truly, truly, I say to you, that he that heareth my word, and believeth in him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and he cometh not into doom, but passeth from death into life.

²⁵Truly, truly, I say to you, for the hour cometh, and now it is, when dead men shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear, shall live.

²⁶For as the Father hath life in him-self, so he gave to the Son, to have life in himself;

²⁷and he gave to him power to make doom, for he is man’s Son.

²⁸Do not ye wonder in this, for the hour cometh, in which all men that be in burials, shall hear the voice of God’s Son.

²⁹And they that have done good things, shall go into again-rising of life; but they that have done evil things, into again-rising of doom.

³⁰I may nothing do of myself, but as I hear, I deem, or I may not of myself do anything, but as I hear, I judge, and my doom is just, for I seek not my will, but the will of the Father that sent me.

³¹If I bear witnessing of myself, my witnessing is not true;

³²another is that beareth witnessing of me, and I know that his witnessing is true, that he beareth of me.

³³Ye sent to John, and he bare witnessing to the truth.

³⁴But I take not witnessing of man; but I say these things, that ye be safe.

³⁵He was a lantern burning and shining, or giving light; but ye would glad, or joy, at an hour in his light.

³⁶But I have more witnessing than John, for the works that my Father gave to me to perform them or the works that my Father gave me that I perform them, those works that I do bear wit-nessing of me, that the Father sent me.

³⁷And the Father that sent me, he bare witnessing of me. Neither ye heard ever his voice, neither ye saw his likeness, or form.

³⁸And ye have not his word dwelling in you; for ye believe not to him, whom he sent.

³⁹Seek ye the scriptures, in which ye guess to have everlasting life; and those it be, that bear witnessing of me.

⁴⁰And ye will not come to me, that ye have life.

⁴¹I take not clearness of men;

⁴²but I have known you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

⁴³I came in the name of my Father, and ye took not me. If another come in his own name, ye shall receive him.

⁴⁴How may ye believe, that receive glory each of other, and ye seek not the glory that is of God alone?

⁴⁵Do not ye guess, that I am to accuse you with the Father; it is Moses that accuseth you, in whom ye hope.

⁴⁶For if ye believed to Moses, peradventure ye should believe also to me; for he wrote of me.
