John 7:1-36 in English

¹ And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judæa, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand.

³ His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judæa, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest.

⁴ For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

⁵ For even his brethren did not believe on him.

⁶ Jesus therefore saith unto 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 testify of it, that its works are evil.

⁸ Go ye up unto the feast: I go not up unto this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.

⁹ And having said these things unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

¹⁰ But when his brethren were gone up unto the feast, then went he also up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.

¹¹ The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

¹² And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him: some said, He is a good man; others said, Not so, but he leadeth the multitude astray.

¹³ Yet no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews therefore marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

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

¹⁷ If any man willeth to do his will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from myself.

¹⁸ He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you doeth the law? Why seek ye to kill me?

²⁰ The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?

²¹ Jesus answered and said unto them, I did one work, and ye all marvel because thereof.

²² Moses hath given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers); and on the sabbath ye circumcise a man.

²³ If a man receiveth circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are ye wroth with me, because I made a man every whit whole on the sabbath?

²⁴ Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

²⁵ Some therefore of them of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ And lo, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing unto him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is the Christ?

²⁷ Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence he is.

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me, and know whence I am; and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him: and no man laid his hand on him, because his hour was not yet come.

³¹ But of the multitude many believed on him; and they said, When the Christ shall come, will he do more signs than those which this man hath done?

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him.

³³ Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come.

³⁵ The Jews therefore said among themselves, Whither will this man go that we shall not find him? will he go unto the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this word that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come?

¹ After these things, Jesus walked in Galilee, for He didn’t want to walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill Him.

² Now the Jews’ Feast of Tabernacles was near.

³ Therefore His brothers told Him, “Leave here and go to Judea, so that Your disciples will see the works that You are doing, too.

⁴ Nobody does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world.”

⁵ For even His brothers didn’t believe in Him.

⁶ Then Jesus told them, “My time hasn’t yet come, but your time is always right.

⁷ The world can’t hate you, but it hates me because I testify that its works are evil.

⁸ Go up to this feast yourselves. I’m not going up to this feast, yet, for my time hasn’t yet fully come.”

⁹ Having said these things to them, He stayed in Galilee.

¹⁰ When His brothers had gone up to the feast, however, Jesus also went up, not publicly, but in secret.

¹¹ The Jews were looking for Him at the feast, and saying, “Where is He?”

¹² There was much complaining among the people about Him. Some said, “He is good,” but others said, “No, He deceives the people.”

¹³ No one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ About the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and began to teach.

¹⁵ The Jews marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”

¹⁶ Jesus answered, “My teaching isn’t mine, but His who sent me.

¹⁷ Anyone who wants to do His will shall know if the teaching is from God or if I speak on my own.

¹⁸ The one who speaks on his own seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.

¹⁹ Didn’t Moses give you the Law, yet none of you keeps the Law? Why are you trying to kill me?”

²⁰ The people answered, “You have a demon. Who is trying to kill You?”

²¹ Jesus answered, “I did one work, and you all marvel.

²² Moses gave you circumcision (not that it’s from Moses, but from the forefathers), and you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath.

²³ If a boy gets circumcised on the Sabbath, so that the Law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Don’t judge by appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.”

²⁵ Some of the people of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill?

²⁶ Look! He is speaking boldly, and they say nothing to Him. The rulers haven’t really concluded that this is the Christ, have they?

²⁷ Still, we know where this man is from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where He is from.”

²⁸ Then Jesus cried out, as He taught in the temple, “You know me, and you know where I’m from. I haven’t come of my own accord, but He who sent me is true, who you don’t know.

²⁹ I know Him, because I am from Him, and He sent me.”

³⁰ Because of this, they were seeking to seize Him, but no one laid hands on Him, because His time had not yet come.

³¹ Many of the people believed in Him, saying, “When the Christ comes, will He do more signs than this man has done?”

³² The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about Jesus, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to seize Him.

³³ Then Jesus told them, “I will be with you a little while longer, and then I am going to Him who sent me.

³⁴ You will look for me, and not find me, and where I am, you can’t come.”

³⁵ Then the Jews said among themselves, “Where does He intend to go that we won’t be able to find Him? He doesn’t intend to go to the dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks, does He?

³⁶ What does He mean by saying, ‘You will look for me, and not find me, and where I am, you can’t come’?”

¹ After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.

³ His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judæa, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

⁴ For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.

⁵ For neither did his brethren believe in him.

⁶ Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.

⁷ The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

⁸ Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come.

⁹ When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

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

¹¹ Then the Jews sought 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 a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people.

¹³ Howbeit no man spake 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 marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

¹⁶ Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

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.

¹⁸ He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?

²⁰ The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee?

²¹ Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.

²² Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.

²³ If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?

²⁴ Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

²⁵ Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?

²⁷ Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

²⁸ Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

²⁹ But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.

³⁰ Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

³¹ And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?

³² The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

³³ Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come.

³⁵ Then said the Jews 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 manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come?

¹ And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand.

³ His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest.

⁴ For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

⁵ For even his brethren did not believe on him.

⁶ Jesus therefore saith unto them, My time is not yet come; but your time is alway ready.

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

⁸ Go ye up unto the feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.

⁹ And having said these things unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

¹⁰ But when his brethren were gone up unto the feast, then went he also up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.

¹¹ The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

¹² And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him: some said, He is a good man; others said, Not so, but he leadeth the multitude astray.

¹³ Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews therefore marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

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

¹⁷ If any man willeth to do his will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it be of God, or whether I speak from myself.

¹⁸ He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you doeth the law? Why seek ye to kill me?

²⁰ The multitude answered, Thou hast a devil: who seeketh to kill thee?

²¹ Jesus answered and said unto them, I did one work, and ye all marvel.

²² For this cause hath Moses given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers); and on the sabbath ye circumcise a man.

²³ If a man receiveth circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are ye wroth with me, because I made a man every whit whole on the sabbath?

²⁴ Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

²⁵ Some therefore of them of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ And lo, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing unto him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is the Christ?

²⁷ Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence he is.

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me, and know whence I am; and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him: and no man laid his hand on him, because his hour was not yet come.

³¹ But of the multitude many believed on him; and they said, When the Christ shall come, will he do more signs than those which this man hath done?

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him.

³³ Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come.

³⁵ The Jews therefore said among themselves, Whither will this man go that we shall not find him? will he go unto the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this word that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come?

¹ After those things happened, Jesus went around in Galilee province. He did not want to travel in Judea province, because he knew that the Jewish leaders there were wanting to kill him.

² But when the time of the Jewish celebration called ❛Celebration of Living in Shelters❜ was near,

³ Jesus' younger brothers said to him, “ Since many people here have left you, you should leave and go to Judea province and perform some miracles there, so that your disciples may see them!

⁴ No one who wants to become famous does things secretly. You say you are doing these miracles, so do some miracles there so that everyone MTY can see them!”

⁵ They said this critically, because even though they were his own younger brothers, they did not believe he was from God.

⁶ So Jesus said to them, “It is not yet time for me MTY to go to the celebration. For you, any time is right to go to the celebration.

⁷ The people MTY who ◄ do not believe in me/do not belong to God► cannot hate you, but they hate me because I tell them that what they are doing is evil.

⁸ You (pl) go ahead to the celebration. I am not going up to Jerusalem to the celebration yet, because now is not the right time for me to go.”

⁹ After he said that, Jesus stayed a little longer in Galilee.

¹⁰ However, a few days after his younger brothers left to go up to the celebration, he went also. He went, along with us disciples, but no others went with us.

¹¹ At the celebration, the Jewish leaders were looking for him. They were asking people, “Has Jesus come?”

¹² Among the crowds, many people were whispering about Jesus. Some were saying, “He is a good man!” But others were saying instead, “No! He is deceiving the crowds!”

¹³ But no one was speaking so that others could hear them, because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders SYN.

¹⁴ In the middle of the days of the celebration, Jesus went to the Temple courtyard and began to teach people.

¹⁵ The Jewish elders were amazed at what he was saying. They said, “This man never studied in one of our religious schools! So ◄how can he have learned so much about Scripture?/it is difficult for us to believe that he has learned so much about Scripture!► RHQ”

¹⁶ Jesus replied to them, “What I teach does not come from myself. It comes from God, the one who sent me.

¹⁷ Those who choose to do what God wants will find out whether what I teach comes from God or whether I am speaking with only my own authority.

¹⁸ Those who speak with only their own authority do that only so that others will honor them. But I am doing things so that others will honor the one who sent me, and I am someone who speaks the truth. I never lie.

¹⁹ Think about the laws that Moses gave you RHQ. None of you completely obeys those laws. So why are you trying to kill me, saying I do not obey the laws concerning ◄ the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest►?”

²⁰ Someone in the crowd answered, “ By saying this you show that you are crazy (OR, A demon is controlling you)! Certainly no one is trying to kill you!”

²¹ Jesus replied to them, “Because I did a miracle of healing someone ◄on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day►, you are all shocked.

²² Moses gave you a law that you must circumcise the male children and that you must do that exactly seven days after they are born. Actually, it was your ancestors, Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, not Moses, who started that ritual. But because of that law, you sometimes circumcise them ◄on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day►, but that is working, too

²³ You sometimes circumcise boys ◄on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day► so that the law of Moses is not disobeyed { you do not disobey the law of Moses}, so ◄it is ridiculous that you are angry with me, saying I worked ◄on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day► by healing a man!/why are you angry with me, saying I worked ◄on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day► by healing a man?► RHQ Healing someone is far more helpful than circumcising a baby boy!

²⁴ Stop deciding whether my healing this man is wrong according to what you see! Instead, decide according to what is really the right action to help people”!

²⁵ Some of the people from Jerusalem were saying, “◄This is the man that they are trying to kill!/Isn't this the man that they are trying to kill?► RHQ

²⁶ He is saying these things ◄publicly/in front of many people►, but our Jewish rulers are not saying anything to oppose him. Is that because they have decided that he is truly ◄the Messiah/God's chosen king►?

²⁷ But he cannot be the Messiah, because we know where this man came from. When the Messiah really comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ They said that because they thought Jesus was born in Nazareth. So while Jesus was teaching people in the Temple courtyard, he shouted, “Yes, you say that you know me, and you think you know IRO where I am from. But I have come here not ◄because I appointed myself/with my own authority►. Instead, God is the one who truly sent me. You do not know him.

²⁹ But I know him, because I have come from him. He is the one who sent me!”

³⁰ Then they tried to seize him because he said that he had come from God. But no one put their hands on him to do that, because it was not yet the time MTY for him to die.

³¹ But many of the crowd believed that he had come from God. They said, “When the Messiah comes, he certainly will not do more miracles than this man has done, will he?”

³² The Pharisees heard them whispering these things about him. So they and the chief priests sent some Temple guards to seize him.

³³ Then Jesus said, “I will be with you for only a short time. Then I will return to the one who sent me.

³⁴ Then you will search for me, but you will not find me. And you will not be able to come to the place where I am.”

³⁵ So the Jewish leaders SYN said to themselves, “Where is this man about to go with the result that we will not be able to find him? Some Jewish people have dispersed and live among Greek people. He is not intending to go and live among them and teach them, is he?

³⁶ When he said ‘You will search for me, but you will not be able to find me,’ and when he said ‘You will not be able to come to the place where I am,’ what did he mean?”

¹ After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.

³ His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.

⁴ For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”

⁵ For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

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

⁷ The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

⁸ You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

⁹ Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

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

¹¹ The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”

¹² There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”

¹³ Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”

¹⁶ Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

¹⁷ If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.

¹⁸ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”

²⁰ The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”

²¹ Jesus answered them, “I did one work and you all marvel because of it.

²² Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

²³ If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”

²⁵ Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷ However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.

³³ Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will seek me and won’t find me. You can’t come where I am.”

³⁵ The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’?”

¹ After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.

⁵ For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

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

⁷ The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

⁸ You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

⁹ Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

²³ If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgement.”

²⁵ Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷ However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.

³³ Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will seek me and won’t find me. You can’t come where I am.”

³⁵ The Jews therefore said amongst themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion amongst the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’?”

¹ After this, Jesus went from place to place in Galilee. He did not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were looking for a chance to put him to death.

² But the feast of the Jews, the feast of tents, was near.

³ So his brothers said to him, Go away from here into Judaea so that your disciples may see the works which you do.

⁴ Because no man does things secretly if he has a desire that men may have knowledge of him. If you do these things, let yourself be seen by all men.

⁵ For even his brothers had no belief in him.

⁶ Jesus said to them, My time is still to come, but any time is good for you.

⁷ It is not possible for you to be hated by the world; but I am hated by it, because I give witness that what it does is evil.

⁸ Go you up to the feast: I am not going up now to the feast because my time has not fully come.

⁹ Having said these things to them, he still kept in Galilee.

¹⁰ But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he went up, not publicly, but in secret.

¹¹ At the feast the Jews were looking for him and saying, Where is he?

¹² And there was much discussion about him among the mass of the people. Some said, He is a good man; but others said, No, he is giving people false ideas.

¹³ But no man said anything about him openly for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ Now in the middle of the feast Jesus went up to the Temple and was teaching.

¹⁵ Then the Jews were surprised and said, How has this man got knowledge of books? He has never been to school.

¹⁶ Jesus gave them this answer: It is not my teaching, but his who sent me.

¹⁷ If any man is ready to do God's pleasure he will have knowledge of the teaching and of where it comes from — from God or from myself.

¹⁸ The man whose words come from himself is looking for glory for himself, but he who is looking for the glory of him who sent him — that man is true and there is no evil in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law? Even so, not one of you keeps the law. Why have you a desire to put me to death?

²⁰ The people said in answer, You have an evil spirit: who has any desire to put you to death?

²¹ This was the answer of Jesus: I have done one work and you are all surprised at it.

²² Moses gave you circumcision — not that it comes from Moses, but from the fathers — and even on the Sabbath you give a child circumcision.

²³ If a child is given circumcision on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Let not your decisions be based on what you see, but on righteousness.

²⁵ Then some of the people of Jerusalem said, Is not this the man whose death is desired?

²⁶ And here he is talking openly and they say nothing to him! Is it possible that the rulers have knowledge that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷ However, it is clear to us where this man comes from: but when the Christ comes no one will have knowledge where he comes from.

²⁸ Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.

²⁹ I have knowledge of him because I came from him and he sent me.

³⁰ Then they had a desire to take him: but no man put hands on him because his hour was still to come.

³¹ And numbers of the people had belief in him, and they said, When the Christ comes will he do more signs than this man has done?

³² This discussion of the people came to the ears of the Pharisees; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent servants to take him.

³³ Then Jesus said, I will be with you a little longer and then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will be looking for me, and you will not see me: and where I am you may not come.

³⁵ So the Jews said among themselves, To what place is he going where we will not see him? will he go to the Jews living among the Greeks and become the teacher of the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this saying of his, You will be looking for me and will not see me, and where I am you may not come?

¹ And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the tabernacles, the feast of the Jews, was near.

³ His brethren therefore said to him, Remove hence and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest;

⁴ for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be known in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world:

⁵ for neither did his brethren believe on him.

⁶ Jesus therefore says to them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.

⁷ The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.

⁸ Ye, go ye up to this feast. I go not up to this feast, for my time is not yet fulfilled.

⁹ Having said these things to them he abode in Galilee.

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

¹¹ The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

¹² And there was much murmuring concerning him among the crowds. Some said, He is a good man; others said, No; but he deceives the crowd.

¹³ However, no one spoke openly concerning him on account of their fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews therefore wondered, saying, How knows this man letters, having never learned?

¹⁶ Jesus therefore answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but that of him that has sent me.

¹⁷ If any one desire to practise his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is of God, or that I speak from myself.

¹⁸ He that speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but he that seeks the glory of him that has sent him, he is true, and unrighteousness is not in him.

¹⁹ Has not Moses given you the law, and no one of you practises the law? Why do ye seek to kill me?

²⁰ The crowd answered and said, Thou hast a demon: who seeks to kill thee?

²¹ Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and ye all wonder.

²² Therefore Moses gave you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and ye circumcise a man on sabbath.

²³ If a man receives circumcision on sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be violated, are ye angry with me because I have made a man entirely sound on sabbath?

²⁴ Judge not according to sight, but judge righteous judgment.

²⁵ Some therefore of those of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ and behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers then indeed recognised that this is the Christ?

²⁷ But as to this man we know whence he is. Now as to the Christ, when he comes, no one knows whence he is.

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me and ye know whence I am; and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye do not know.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him; and no one laid his hand upon him, because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ But many of the crowd believed on him, and said, Will the Christ, when he comes, do more signs than those which this man has done?

³² The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things concerning him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they might take him.

³³ Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while I am with you, and I go to him that has sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me and shall not find me, and where I am ye cannot come.

³⁵ The Jews therefore said to one another, Where is he about to go that we shall not find him? Is he about to go to the dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What word is this which he said, Ye shall seek me and shall not find me; and where I am ye cannot come?

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?

¹ And after these things Jesus was walking in Galilee; for He did not wish to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill Him.

² Now the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near.

³ His brothers therefore said to Him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, so that Your disciples also may see the works that You do.

⁴ For no one does anything in secret while he himself seeks to be known publicly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world.”

⁵ For not even His brothers believed in Him.

⁶ Then 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 about it, that its works are evil.

⁸ You go up to this feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because My time has not yet been fulfilled.”

⁹ When He had said these things to them, He remained in Galilee.

¹⁰ But when His brothers had gone up, then also He Himself went up to the feast, not openly, but in private.

¹¹ Then the Jews were seeking Him at the feast, and said, “Where is He?”

¹² And there was much murmuring among the crowds concerning Him. Some on the one hand were saying, “He is a good Man”; while others were saying, “No, on the contrary, He deceives the people.”

¹³ However, no one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and began to teach.

¹⁵ And the Jews were marveling, saying, “How has this Man become learned, since He has not been educated?”

¹⁶ Therefore Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.

¹⁷ If anyone desires to do His will, he will know about the doctrine, whether it is from God, or whether I am speaking on My own authority.

¹⁸ He who speaks from himself is seeking his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

¹⁹ Has not Moses given you the law, yet none of you keeps the law? Why are you seeking to kill Me?”

²⁰ The crowd answered and said, “You have a demon. Who is seeking to kill You?”

²¹ Jesus answered and said to them, “I did one work, and you all marvel.

²² Because of this Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

²³ If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.”

²⁵ Therefore some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, “Is this not He whom they are seeking to kill?

²⁶ And look! He is speaking publicly, and they say nothing to Him. Can it be that the rulers know indeed that this is truly the Messiah?

²⁷ However, we know where this Man is from; but whenever the Messiah comes, no one knows where He is from.”

²⁸ Therefore Jesus cried out, as He was teaching in the temple, saying, “You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of my own accord, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

²⁹ I know Him, for I am from Him, and He sent Me.”

³⁰ Therefore they were seeking to arrest Him; but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

³¹ But many of the crowd believed in Him, and were saying, “When the Messiah comes, will He do more signs than these which this Man has done?”

³² The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about Him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent attendants so that they might arrest Him.

³³ Then Jesus said, “Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go to Him who sent Me.

³⁴ You will seek Me and you will not find Me, and where I am you cannot come.”

³⁵ Therefore the Jews said among themselves, “Where does this man intend to go that we will not find Him? Does He intend to go into the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this thing which He said, ‘You will seek Me and you will not find Me, and where I am you cannot come’?”

¹ After these things Jesus continued to move about in Galilee, since He did not wish to move about in Judea because the Jews were wanting to kill Him.

² Now the Jews' Feast of Tabernacles was near.

³ So His brothers said to Him: “Leave here and go up into Judea so your disciples also may see the works that you are doing,

⁴ because no one does anything in secret while he actually wants to be in evidence. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world!”

⁵ For not even His brothers were believing into Him.

⁶ So Jesus says to them: “My time is not here yet, but your time is always available.

⁷ The world cannot hate you, but does hate me, because I testify about it that its works are malignant.

⁸ You guys go up to this feast; I am not going up yet to this feast, because my time has not yet fully come.”

⁹ So upon saying these things to them He stayed on in Galilee.

¹⁰ Now when His brothers had gone up to the feast, then He too went up, not openly but in secret like.

¹¹ So the Jews were looking for Him at the feast and saying, “Where is he?”

¹² And there was a lot of murmuring about Him among the crowds. Some were saying, “He is good”; others were saying, “On the contrary, he's deceiving the people.”

¹³ However, no one was talking openly about Him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ Now when the feast was already half over Jesus went up into the temple and started to teach.

¹⁵ And the Jews were marveling saying, “How is this man learned, not having been educated?”

¹⁶ So Jesus answered them and said: “What I teach is not mine, but His who sent me.

¹⁷ If anyone wants to do His will, he will know concerning the teaching, whether it is from God or whether I am speaking on my own.

¹⁸ Someone who speaks on his own is seeking his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him, He is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

¹⁹ “Did not Moses give you the Law? And yet not one of you keeps the Law! Why do you want to kill me?”

²⁰ The crowd answered and said, “You must have a demon! Who wants to kill you?”

²¹ Jesus answered and said to them: “I did one work, and you all marvel.

²² Consider this: Moses gave you circumcision (not that it comes from Moses, but from the patriarchs), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

²³ If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the Law of Moses won't be broken, are you angry at me because I made a whole man well on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Stop judging on the basis of appearances, but judge the righteous judgment.”

²⁵ Now some of the Jerusalemites were saying: “Isn't this the man they are wanting to kill?

²⁶ Yet look! He is speaking openly and they are saying nothing to Him. Could it be true that the rulers know that this is really the Christ?

²⁷ On the other hand, we know where this man is from; but whenever the Christ comes nobody knows where He is from.”

²⁸ So Jesus called out in the temple, teaching and saying: “You do know me, and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come on my own, but the One who sent me is true, whom you do not know.

²⁹ I do know Him because I am from Him, and He sent me.”

³⁰ So they tried to arrest Him, yet no one laid a hand on Him because His hour had not yet come.

³¹ Now many of the crowd were believing into Him, and they were saying, “Whenever the Christ comes He won't perform more signs than these which this man has done, will He?”

³² The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about Him, so the Pharisees and the chief priests sent operatives to arrest Him.

³³ Then Jesus said: “For a little while I am still with you, and then I go to the One who sent me.

³⁴ You will look for me and not find me; also, where I am you cannot come.”

³⁵ So the Jews said among themselves: “Where does this fellow intend to go that we won't find him? He doesn't intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks, does he?

³⁶ What word is this that he spoke, ‘You will look for me and not find me’; also, ‘where I am you cannot come’?”

¹ After this, Jesus spent his time going from place to place in Galilee. He did not want to do so in Judea because the Jews were out to kill him.

² But as it was almost time for the Jewish festival of the Tabernacles,

³ his brothers told him, “You ought to leave and go to Judea so your followers will be able to see what miracles you can do.

⁴ No one who wants to be famous keeps what they do hidden. If you can do such miracles, then show yourself to the world!”

⁵ For even his own brothers really didn't believe in him.

⁶ Jesus told them, “This is not my time to go, not yet; but you can go whenever you want, for any time's the right time for you.

⁷ The world has no reason to hate you, but it does hate me, because I make it clear that its ways are evil.

⁸ You go on to the festival. I'm not going to this festival because this is not the right time for me, not yet.”

⁹ After saying this he stayed behind in Galilee.

¹⁰ After his brothers left to go to the festival, Jesus also went, but not openly—he stayed out of sight.

¹¹ Now at the festival the Jewish leaders were searching for him and kept on asking, “Where is he?”

¹² Many people in the crowds were complaining about him. Some said, “He's a good man,” while others argued, “No! He deceives people.”

¹³ But no one dared to speak openly about him because they were afraid of what the Jewish leaders would do to them.

¹⁴ When the festival was halfway through Jesus went to the Temple and began to teach.

¹⁵ The Jewish leaders were very surprised, and asked, “How does this man have so much learning when he hasn't been educated?”

¹⁶ Jesus answered, “My teaching is not from me but from the one who sent me.

¹⁷ Anyone who chooses to follow what God wants will know if my teaching comes from God or if I'm only speaking for myself.

¹⁸ Those who speak for themselves want to glorify themselves, but someone who glorifies the one who sent him is truthful and not deceitful.

¹⁹ Moses gave you the law, didn't he? Yet none of you keeps the law! Why are you trying to kill me?”

²⁰ “You're demon-possessed!” the crowd replied. “No one's trying to kill you!”

²¹ “I did one miracle and you're all shocked by it,” Jesus replied.

²² “However, because Moses told you to circumcise—not that it really came from Moses, but from your forefathers before him—you perform circumcision on the Sabbath.

²³ If you circumcise on the Sabbath to make sure that the law of Moses isn't broken, why are you angry with me for healing someone on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Don't judge by appearances; decide what is right!”

²⁵ Then some of those from Jerusalem began wondering, “Isn't this the one they're trying to kill?

²⁶ But see how openly he's speaking, and they're saying nothing to him. Do you think the authorities believe he's the Messiah?

²⁷ But that's not possible because we know where he comes from. When the Messiah comes, nobody will know where he's from.”

²⁸ While he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus called out in a loud voice, “So you think you know me and where I'm from? However, I did not come for my own sake. The one who sent me is true. You don't know him,

²⁹ but I know him, for I come from him, and he sent me.”

³⁰ So they tried to arrest him, but no one laid a hand on him because his time had not yet come.

³¹ However, many of the crowd did put their trust in him. “When the Messiah appears, will he do more miraculous signs than this man has done?” they said.

³² When the Pharisees heard the crowd whispering this about him, they and the chief priests sent guards to arrest Jesus.

³³ Then Jesus told the people, “I'll be with you just a little longer, but then I'll return to the one who sent me.

³⁴ You'll search for me but you won't find me; and you can't come where I'm going.”

³⁵ The Jews said to each other, “Where could he be going that we couldn't find him? Is he planning to go to those scattered among the foreigners, and teach the foreigners?

³⁶ What does he mean by saying, ‘You'll search for me but you won't find me; and you can't come where I'm going’?”

¹ After these things, Iesus walked in Galile, and woulde not walke in Iudea: for the Iewes sought to kill him.

² Nowe the Iewes feast of the Tabernacles was at hande.

³ His brethren therefore sayde vnto him, Depart hence, and goe into Iudea, that thy disciples may see thy woorkes that thou doest.

⁴ For there is no man that doeth any thing secretely, and hee himselfe seeketh to be famous. If thou doest these things, shewe thy selfe to the worlde.

⁵ For as yet his brethren beleeued not in him.

⁶ Then Iesus saide vnto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway readie.

⁷ The world can not hate you: but me it hateth, because I testifie of it, that the workes thereof are euill.

⁸ Go ye vp vnto this feast: I wil not go vp yet vnto this feast: for my time is not yet fulfilled.

⁹ These things he sayde vnto them, and abode still in Galile.

¹⁰ But assoone as his brethren were gone vp, then went hee also vp vnto the feast, not openly, but as it were priuilie.

¹¹ Then the Iewes sought him at the feast, and saide, Where is hee?

¹² And much murmuring was there of him among the people. Some said, He is a good man: other sayd, Nay: but he deceiueth the people.

¹³ Howbeit no man spake openly of him for feare of the Iewes.

¹⁴ Nowe when halfe the feast was done, Iesus went vp into the Temple and taught.

¹⁵ And the Iewes marueiled, saving, Howe knoweth this man the Scriptures, seeing that hee neuer learned!

¹⁶ Iesus answered them, and saide, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

¹⁷ If any man will doe his will, he shall knowe of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speake of my selfe.

¹⁸ Hee that speaketh of himselfe, seeketh his owne glorie: but hee that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no vnrighteousnes is in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses giue you a Law, and yet none of you keepeth the lawe? Why goe ye about to kill me?

²⁰ The people answered, and said, Thou hast a deuil: who goeth about to kill thee?

²¹ Iesus answered, and saide to them, I haue done one worke, and ye all maruaile.

²² Moses therefore gaue vnto you circumcision, (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers) and ye on the Sabbath day circumcise a man.

²³ If a man on the Sabbath receiue circumcision, that the Lawe of Moses should not be broken, be ye angrie with me, because I haue made a man euery whit whole on the Sabbath day?

²⁴ Iudge not according to the appearance, but iudge righteous iudgement.

²⁵ Then saide some of them of Hierusalem, Is not this he, whom they goe about to kill?

²⁶ And beholde, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him: doe the rulers know in deede that this is in deede that Christ?

²⁷ Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when that Christ commeth, no man shall knowe whence he is.

²⁸ Then cried Iesus in the Temple as hee taught, saying, Ye both knowe mee, and knowe whence I am: yet am I not come of my selfe, but he that sent me, is true, whome ye knowe not.

²⁹ But I knowe him: for I am of him, and he hath sent me.

³⁰ Then they sought to take him, but no man layde handes on him, because his houre was not yet come.

³¹ Now many of the people beleeued in him, and said, When that Christ commeth, will he doe moe miracles then this man hath done?

³² The Pharises heard that the people murmured these thinges of him, and the Pharises, and high Priestes sent officers to take him.

³³ Then saide Iesus vnto them, Yet am I a little while with you, and then goe I vnto him that sent mee.

³⁴ Ye shall seeke me, and shall not finde me, and where I am, can ye not come.

³⁵ Then saide the Iewes amongs themselues, Whither will he goe, that we shall not finde him? Will he goe vnto them that are dispersed among the Grecians, and teache the Grecians?

³⁶ What saying is this that hee saide, Ye shall seeke mee, and shall not finde mee? and where I am, cannot ye come?

¹ After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.

³ His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

⁴ For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.

⁵ For neither did his brethren believe in him.

⁶ Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.

⁷ The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

⁸ Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come.

⁹ When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

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

¹¹ Then the Jews sought 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 a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people.

¹³ Howbeit no man spake 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 marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

¹⁶ Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

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.

¹⁸ He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?

²⁰ The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee?

²¹ Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.

²² Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision, not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers; and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.

²³ If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?

²⁴ Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

²⁵ Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ But lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?

²⁷ Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

²⁸ Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

²⁹ But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.

³⁰ Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

³¹ And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do moe miracles than these which this man hath done?

³² The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

³³ Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come.

³⁵ Then said the Jews 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 manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come?

¹ After these things Jesus walked in Galilee; for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand.

³ His brothers therefore said to him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou art doing.

⁴ For no one doeth anything in secret, and yet himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

⁵ For even his brothers did not believe in him.

⁶ Jesus saith 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 testify of it, that its works are evil.

⁸ Go ye up to the feast; I go not up to this feast; for my time is not yet fully come.

⁹ Having said these things, he 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 therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is that man?

¹² And there was much debating among the multitude concerning him. Some said, He is a good man; others said, Nay, but he deceiveth the multitude.

¹³ No one, however, spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews therefore marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

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

¹⁷ If any one is desirous to do his will, he will know concerning the teaching, whether it is from God, or whether I speak from myself.

¹⁸ He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory; but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and in him is no unrighteousness.

¹⁹ Hath not Moses given you the Law? and none of you keepeth the Law! Why do ye seek to kill me?

²⁰ The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon! Who seeketh to kill thee?

²¹ Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one good work, and ye are all wondering.

²² Moses hath given you circumcision, (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath circumcise a man.

²³ If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye angry at me, because I have restored soundness to the whole body of a man on the sabbath?

²⁴ Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

²⁵ Then some of the men of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ and see! he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers discovered certainly that this man is the Christ?

²⁷ Still, as to this man, we know whence he is; but when the Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence he is.

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried aloud, teaching in the temple and saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but there is in truth one who sent me, whom ye know not.

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

³⁰ Therefore they sought to take him; but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ But of the multitude many believed in him, and said, When the Christ cometh, will he do more signs than these which this man doeth?

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude thus debating concerning him; and the chief priest and the Pharisees sent officers to seize him.

³³ Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while I am with you, and then I go to him that sent me.

³⁴ Ye will seek me and not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come.

³⁵ The Jews therefore said among themselves, Whither will this man go, that we shall not find him? Will he go to the dispersed among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What meaneth this which he said, Ye will seek me, and not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come?

¹ After this, Jesus went about in Galilee, for he would not do so in Judea, because the religious authorities (in Jerusalem) were eager to put him to death.

² When the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near,

³ his brothers said to him, “Leave this part of the country, and go into Judea, so that your disciples, as well as we, may see the work that you are doing.

⁴ For no one does a thing privately, if they are seeking to be widely known. Since you do these things, you should show yourself publicly to the world.”

⁵ For even his brothers did not believe in him.

⁶ “My time,” answered Jesus, “is not come yet, but your time is always here.

⁷ The world cannot hate you, but it does hate me, because I testify that its ways are evil.

⁸ Go yourselves up to the Festival; I am not going to this Festival yet, because my time has not yet come.”

⁹ After telling them this, he stayed on in Galilee.

¹⁰ But, when his brothers had gone up to the Festival, Jesus also went up — not publicly, but privately.

¹¹ The authorities were looking for him at the Festival and asking ‘Where is he?’;

¹² and there were many whispers about him amongst the people, some saying ‘He is a good man;’ others, ‘No! He is leading the people astray.’

¹³ No one, however, spoke freely about him, because they were afraid of the authorities.

¹⁴ About the middle of the Festival week, Jesus went up into the Temple Courts, and began teaching.

¹⁵ The authorities were astonished. “How has this man got his learning,” they asked, “when he has never studied?”

¹⁶ So, in reply, Jesus said, “My teaching is not my own; it is his who sent me.

¹⁷ If anyone has the will to do God's will, they will find out whether my teaching is from God, or whether I speak on my own authority.

¹⁸ The person who speaks on their own authority seeks honour for themselves; but the one who seeks the honour of him who sent him is sincere, and there is nothing false in him.

¹⁹ Was not it Moses who gave you the Law? Yet not one of you obeys it! Why are you seeking to put me to death?”

²⁰ “You must be possessed by a demon!” the people exclaimed. “Who is seeking to put you to death?”

²¹ “There was one thing I did,” replied Jesus, “at which you are all still wondering.

²² But that is why Moses has instituted circumcision amongst you — not, indeed, that it began with him, but with our ancestors — and that is why you circumcise even on a Sabbath.

²³ When a man receives circumcision on a Sabbath to prevent the Law of Moses from being broken, how can you be angry with me for making a man sound and well on a Sabbath?

²⁴ Do not judge by appearances; judge justly.”

²⁵ At this some of the people of Jerusalem exclaimed, “Is not this the man who they are seeking to put to death?

²⁶ Yet here he is, speaking out boldly, and they say nothing to him! Is it possible that our leading men have really discovered that he is the Christ?

²⁷ Yet we know where this man is from; but, when the Christ comes, no one will be able to tell where he is from.”

²⁸ Therefore, Jesus, as he was teaching in the Temple Courts, raised his voice and said, “Yes; you know me and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come on my own authority, but he who sent me may be trusted; and him you do not know.

²⁹ I do know him, for it is from him that I have come, and he sent me as his messenger.”

³⁰ So they sought to arrest him; but no one touched him, for his time was not come yet.

³¹ Many of the people, however, believed in him. “When the Christ comes,” they said, “will he give more signs of his mission than this man has given?”

³² The Pharisees heard the people whispering about him in this way, and so the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him;

³³ at which Jesus said, “I will be with you but a little longer, and then I am going to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will look for me, and you will not find me; and you will not be able to come where I will be.”

³⁵ “Where is this man going,” the people asked one another, “that we would not find him? Will he go to our countrymen abroad, and teach foreigners?

³⁶ What does he mean by saying ‘You will look for me, and you will not find me; and you will not be able to come where I will be’?”

¹ After this, Jesus went about in Galilee, for he would not do so in Judea, because the religious authorities (in Jerusalem) were eager to put him to death.

² When the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near,

³ his brothers said to him, “Leave this part of the country, and go into Judea, so that your disciples, as well as we, may see the work that you are doing.

³⁴ You will look for me, and you will not find me; and you will not be able to come where I will be.”

³⁵ “Where is this man going,” the people asked one another, “that we would not find him? Will he go to our countrymen abroad, and teach foreigners?

³⁶ What does he mean by saying ‘You will look for me, and you will not find me; and you will not be able to come where I will be’?”

¹ After these things, Yeshua Salvation was walking in Galilee District, Circuit, for he would not walk in Judea Praise, because the Jews Praisers sought to kill him.

² Now the festival of Sukkot ·Tabernacles·, the Festival of Booths, was at hand. (The seventh month 15th day).

³ His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here, and go into Judea Praise, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.

⁴ For no one does anything in secret, and himself seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”

⁵ For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

⁶ Yeshua Salvation therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

⁷ The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

⁸ You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

⁹ Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee District, Circuit.

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

¹¹ The Jews Praisers therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”

¹² There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”

¹³ Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews Praisers.

¹⁴ But when it was now the middle of the feast, Yeshua Salvation went up into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews Praisers therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know so much, without having studied?”

¹⁶ Yeshua Salvation therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

¹⁷ If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.

¹⁸ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Didn’t Moses Drawn out give you the Torah ·Teaching·? Yet none of you keeps the law! Why do you seek to kill me?”

²⁰ The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”

²¹ Yeshua Salvation answered them, “I did one work, and you all marvel because of it.

²² Moses Drawn out has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses Drawn out, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath ·To cease· you circumcise a boy.

²³ If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath ·To cease·, that the Torah ·Teaching· of Moses Drawn out may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath ·To cease·?

²⁴ Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge upright judgment.”

²⁵ Therefore some of them of Jerusalem City of peace said, “Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Messiah Anointed one?

²⁷ However we know where this man comes from, but when the Messiah Anointed one comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ Yeshua Salvation therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Messiah Anointed one comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”

³² The Pharisees Separated heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees Separated sent officers to arrest him.

³³ Then Yeshua Salvation said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will seek me, and won’t find me; and where I am, you can’t come.”

³⁵ The Jews Praisers therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me; and where I am, you can’t come’?”

¹ After that Iesus wet about in Galile and wolde not go about in Iewry for the Iewes sought to kill him.

² The Iewes tabernacle feast was at honde.

³ His brethren therfore sayde vnto him: get ye hence and go into Iewry that thy disciples maye se thy workes that thou doest.

⁴ For ther is no man that doeth eny thing secretly and he him selfe seketh to be knowen. Yf thou do soche thinges shewe thy selfe to the worlde.

⁵ For as yet his brethren beleved not in him.

⁶ Then Iesus sayd vnto them: My tyme is not yet come youre tyme is all waye redy.

⁷ The worlde cannot hate you. Me it hateth: because I testify of it that the workes of it are evyll.

⁸ Go ye vp vnto this feast. I will not go vp yet vnto this feast for my tyme is not yet full come.

⁹ These wordes he sayde vnto them and abode still in Galile.

¹⁰ But assone as his brethren were goone vp then went he also vp vnto the feast: not openly but as it were prevely.

¹¹ Then sought him the Iewes at the feast and sayde: Where is he?

¹² And moche murmurynge was ther of him amonge the people. Some sayde: He is good. Wother sayde naye but he deceaveth the people.

¹³ How be it no man spake openly of him for feare of the Iewes

¹⁴ In the middes of the feast Iesus went vp into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ And the Iewes marveylled sayinge: How knoweth he the scriptures seynge that he never learned?

¹⁶ Iesus answered them and sayde: My doctrine is not myne: but his that sent me.

¹⁷ If eny man will do his will he shall knowe of the doctrine whether it be of God or whether I speake of my selfe.

¹⁸ He that speaketh of him selfe seketh his awne prayse. But he that seketh his prayse that sent him the same is true and no vnrightewesnes is in him.

¹⁹ Dyd not Moses geve you a lawe and yet none of you kepeth the lawe? Why goo ye aboute to kyll me?

²⁰ The people answered and sayde: thou hast the devyll: who goeth aboute to kyll the?

²¹ Iesus answered and sayde to them: I have done one worke and ye all marvayle.

²² Moses therfore gave vnto you circumcision: not because it is of Moses but of the fathers. And yet ye on the Saboth daye circumcise a man.

²³ If a man on the Saboth daye receave circumcision without breakinge of the lawe of Moses: disdayne ye at me because I have made a man every whit whoale on the saboth daye?

²⁴ Iudge not after the vtter aperaunce: but iudge rightewes iudgement.

²⁵ Then sayd some of them of Ierusalem: Is not this he who they goo aboute to kyll?

²⁶ Beholde he speaketh boldly and they saye nothinge to him. Do the rulars knowe in dede that this is very Christ?

²⁷ How be it we knowe this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh no man shall knowe whence he is.

²⁸ Then cryed Iesus in the temple as he taught sayinge: ye knowe me and whence I am ye knowe. And yet I am not come of my selfe but he that sent me is true whom ye knowe not.

²⁹ I knowe him: for I am of him and he hath sent me.

³⁰ Then they sought to take him: but no man layde hondes on him because his tyme was not yet come.

³¹ Many of the people beleved on him and sayde: when Christ cometh will he do moo miracles then this man hath done?

³² The pharises hearde that the people murmured suche thinges about him. Wherfore the pharises and hye prestes sent ministres forthe to take him.

³³ Then sayde Iesus vnto the: Yet am I a lytell whyle with you and then goo I vnto him that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seke me and shall not fynde me: and where I am thyther can ye not come.

³⁵ Then sayde the Iewes bitwene the selves: whyther will he goo that we shall not fynde him? Will he goo amonge the gentyls which are scattered all a broade and teache the gentyls?

³⁶ What maner of sayinge is this that he sayde: ye shall seke me and shall not fynde me: and where I am thyther can ye not come?

¹ After these things Jesus traveled about in Galilee, for he did not want to go into Judea because the Jews were seeking to kill him.

² Now the Jewish Festival of Shelters was near.

³ His brothers therefore said to him, “Leave this place and go to Judea, so that your disciples also may see the works that you do.

⁴ No one does anything in secret if he himself wants to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world.”

⁵ For even his brothers did not believe in him.

⁶ Jesus therefore 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 about it that its works are evil.

⁸ You go up to the festival; I am not going to this festival because my time has not yet been fulfilled.”

⁹ After he said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

¹⁰ But when his brothers had gone up to the festival, then he also went up, not publicly but in secret.

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

¹² There was much discussion among the crowds about him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “No, he leads the crowds astray.”

¹³ Yet no one spoke openly about him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ When the festival was already half over, Jesus went up into the temple and began to teach.

¹⁵ Then the Jews marveled, saying, “How does this man know so much? He has never been educated.”

¹⁶ Jesus answered them and said, “My teaching is not mine, but is of him who sent me.

¹⁷ If anyone wishes to do his will, he will know about this teaching, whether it comes from God, or whether I speak from myself.

¹⁸ Whoever speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but whoever seeks the glory of him who sent him, that person is true, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why do you seek to kill me?”

²⁰ The crowd answered, “You have a demon. Who seeks to kill you?”

²¹ Jesus answered and said to them, “I did one work, and you all marvel because of it.

²² Moses gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the ancestors), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man.

²³ If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses is not broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Do not judge according to appearance, but judge righteously.”

²⁵ Some of them from Jerusalem said, “Is not this the one they seek to kill?

²⁶ See, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. It cannot be that the rulers indeed know that this is the Christ, can it?

²⁷ Yet we know where this one is from. But when the Christ comes, no one will know where he is from.”

²⁸ Then Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me and know where I come from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, and you do not know him.

²⁹ I know him because I come from him and he sent me.”

³⁰ They were trying to arrest him, but no one laid a hand on him because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ But many in the crowd believed in him, and they said, “When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than what this one has done?”

³² The Pharisees heard the crowds whispering these things about Jesus, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.

³³ Jesus then said, “I am still with you for a short amount of time, and then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will seek me but you will not find me; where I go, you will not be able to come.”

³⁵ The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we will not be able to find him? Will he go to the dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this word that he said, 'You will seek me but will not find me; where I go, you will not be able to come'?”

¹ After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.

¹³ Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”

¹⁶ Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

¹⁷ If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.

¹⁸ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

²⁶ Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷ However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

³⁶ What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’?”

¹ After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

² Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.

³ His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.

⁴ For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”

⁵ For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

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

⁷ The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

⁸ You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

⁹ Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

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

¹¹ The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”

¹² There was much murmuring amongst the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”

¹³ Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ The Jews therefore marvelled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”

¹⁶ Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

¹⁷ If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.

¹⁸ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”

²⁰ The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”

²¹ Jesus answered them, “I did one work and you all marvel because of it.

²² Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

²³ If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?

²⁴ Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgement.”

²⁵ Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷ However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.

³³ Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ You will seek me and won’t find me. You can’t come where I am.”

³⁵ The Jews therefore said amongst themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion amongst the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’?”

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 His brethren therefore said to him, Depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

⁴ For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, show 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 testify concerning it, that its works are evil.

⁸ Go ye up to this feast: I go not yet to this feast, for my time is not yet full come.

⁹ When he had said these words to them, he abode still in Galilee.

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

¹¹ Then the Jews sought 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 a good man: others said, No; but he deceiveth 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 marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

¹⁶ Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

¹⁷ If any man will do his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God, or whether I speak from myself.

¹⁸ He that speaketh from himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?

²⁰ The people answered and said, Thou hast a demon: who goeth about to kill thee?

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

²² Moses therefore gave to you circumcision, (not because it is from Moses, but from the fathers) and ye on the sabbath circumcise a man.

²³ If a man on the sabbath receiveth circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have restored a man to sound health on the sabbath?

²⁴ Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

²⁵ Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ But lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?

²⁷ But we know this man, whence he is: whereas when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

²⁸ Then cried Jesus in the temple, as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

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

³⁰ Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

³¹ And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?

³² The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him: and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

³³ Then said Jesus to them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go to him that sent me.

³⁴ Ye will seek me, and will not find me : and where I am, thither ye cannot come.

³⁵ Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go to the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?

³⁶ What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye will seek me, and will not find me : and where I am, thither ye cannot come?

¹ After these things, Yeshua was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Judeans sought to kill him.

² Now the Jewish festival, the Feast of Sukkot, was at hand.

³ His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.

⁴ For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”

⁵ For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

⁶ Yeshua therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

⁷ The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

⁸ You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

⁹ Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

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

¹⁸ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ Didn’t Moses give you the Torah, and yet none of you keeps the Torah? Why do you seek to kill me?”

²⁰ The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”

²¹ Yeshua answered them, “I did one work and you all marvel because of it.

²² Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

²³ If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the Torah of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?

²⁶ Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Messiah?

²⁷ However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Messiah comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ Yeshua therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

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

³⁰ They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

¹ After these things Jesus walked into Galilee, for he would not walk into Judea, for the Jews sought to slay him.

² And there was nigh a feast day of the Jews, Scenopegia, that is, a feast of tabernacles.

³ And his brethren said to him, Pass from hence, and go into Judea, that also thy disciples see thy works that thou doest;

⁴ for no man doeth anything in huddles, and himself seeketh to be open, +or forsooth no man doeth anything in hid place, or privy, and he seeketh to be in open. If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.

⁵ For neither his brethren believed in him.

⁶ Therefore Jesus saith to them, My time came not yet, but your time is evermore ready.

⁷ The world may not hate you, soothly it hateth me; for I bear witnessing thereof, that the works of it be evil.

⁸ Go ye up to this feast day, but I shall not go up to this feast day, for my time is not yet fulfilled or full-filled.

⁹ When he had said these things, he dwelt in Galilee.

¹⁰ And after that his brethren were gone up, then he went up to the feast day, not openly, but as in private.

¹¹ Therefore the Jews sought him in the feast day, and said, Where is he?

¹² And much grutching was of him among the people. For some said, That he is good; and others said, Nay, but he deceiveth the people;

¹³ nevertheless no man spake openly of him, for dread of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when the middle feast day came, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

¹⁵ And the Jews wondered, and said, How knoweth this man letters, since he hath not learned?

¹⁶ Jesus answered to them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

¹⁷ If any man will do his will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it be of God, or 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, is soothfast, and unrightwiseness is not in him.

¹⁹ Whether Moses gave not to you a law, and none of you doeth or keep-eth the law? What seek ye to slay me?

²⁰ And the people answered, and said, Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to slay thee?

²¹ Jesus answered, and said to them, I have done one work, and all ye wonder.

²² Therefore Moses gave to you circumcision; not for it is of Moses, but of the fathers; and in the sabbath ye circumcise a man.

²³ If a man take circumcision in the sabbath, that the law of Moses be not broken, have ye indignation, or wrath, to me, for I made all a man whole in the sabbath?

²⁴ Do not ye deem after the face, but deem ye a rightful doom.

²⁵ Therefore some of Jerusalem said, Whether this is not he, whom the Jews seek to slay?

²⁶ and lo! he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Whether the princes know verily that this is Christ?

²⁷ But we know this man, of whence he is; but when Christ shall come, no man knoweth of whence he is.

²⁸ Therefore Jesus cried in the temple teaching, and said, Ye know me, and ye know of whence I am; and I came not of myself, but he is true that sent me, whom ye know not.

²⁹ I know him, and if I say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar; but I know him, for of him I am, and he sent me.

³⁰ Therefore they sought to take him, and no man set on him hands, for his hour came not yet.

³¹ And many of the people believed in him, and said, When Christ shall come, whether he shall do more tokens than those that this doeth?

³² The Pharisees heard the people musing of him, these things; and the princes and the Pharisees sent min-isters, to take him.

³³ Therefore Jesus said to them, Yet a little time I am with you, and I go to the Father, that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me, and ye shall not find me; and where I am, ye may not come.

³⁵ Therefore the Jews said to them-selves, Whither shall this go, for we shall not find him? whether he will go into the scattering of heathen men, and will teach the heathen?

³⁶ What is this word, which he said, Ye shall seek me, and ye shall not find me; and where I am, ye may not come?

¹ After these things Jesus walked into Galilee, for he would not walk into Judea, for the Jews sought to slay him.

² And there was nigh a feast day of the Jews, Scenopegia, that is, a feast of tabernacles, (or the Festival of Tabernacles).

³ And his brethren said to him, Pass from hence (or Go forth from here), and go into Judea, (so) that also thy disciples see thy works that thou doest;

⁴ for no man doeth anything in huddles (or in secret), and himself seeketh to be (out in the) open, +or forsooth no man doeth anything in hid place, or (in) privy, (or for no one doeth anything in a hidden place, or in private), and he seeketh to be (out) in (the) open. If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.

⁵ For neither his brethren believed in him.

⁶ Therefore Jesus saith to them, My time came not yet, but your time is (for)evermore ready. (My hour hath not yet come, or It is not yet my time, but it is always your time.)

⁷ The world may not hate you, soothly it hateth me; for I bear witnessing thereof (or for I testify to it), that the works of it be evil.

⁸ Go ye up to this feast day, but I shall not go up to this feast day, for my time is not yet fulfilled, or full-filled, (or for my time is not yet filled full, or hath not yet fully come to fruition).

⁹ When he had said these things, he dwelt in Galilee.

¹⁰ And after that his brethren were gone up, then he went up to the feast day, not openly, but as in private.

¹¹ Therefore the Jews sought him in the feast day (or And so the Jews looked for him on the Feast Day, or at the Festival), and said, Where is he?

¹² And much grudging was of him among the people (or And there was much grumbling about him among the people). For some said, That he is good; and others said, Nay, but he deceiveth the people;

¹³ nevertheless no man spake openly of him, for dread of the Jews (or for fear of the Jews).

¹⁴ But when the middle feast day came, Jesus went up into the temple (or Jesus went to the Temple), and taught.

¹⁵ And the Jews wondered, and said, How knoweth this man letters, since he hath not learned? (or How can this man know so much, since he hath not studied?)

¹⁶ Jesus answered to them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

¹⁷ If any man will do his will, he shall know of the teaching, 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, is soothfast (or is truthful), and unrightwiseness is not in him.

¹⁹ Whether Moses gave not to you a law, and none of you doeth or keepeth the law? What seek ye to slay me? (Did not Moses give you the Law? and yet none of you obeyeth the Law. Why do ye seek to kill me?)

²⁰ And the people answered, and said, Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to slay thee?

²¹ Jesus answered, and said to them, I have done one work, and all ye wonder.

²² Therefore Moses gave to you circumcision; not for it is of Moses, but of the fathers, (or not that it was from Moses, but from the fathers); and in (or on) the sabbath ye circumcise a man.

²³ If a man take circumcision in the sabbath, that the law of Moses be not broken, (why) have ye indignation, or wrath, to me, for I made all a man whole in the sabbath? (And if a man receive his circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the Law of Moses be not broken, then why have ye indignation, or wrath, against me, for I made a man all whole, or I healed him, on the Sabbath?)

²⁴ Do not ye deem after the face, but deem ye a rightful doom. (Do not simply judge on the surface, but rather make the correct judgement.)

²⁵ Therefore some of Jerusalem said, Whether this is not he, whom the Jews seek to slay?

²⁶ and lo! he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Whether the princes know verily that this is Christ? (or Perhaps our leaders know that he is truly the Messiah?)

²⁷ But we know this man, of whence he is; but when Christ shall come, no man knoweth of whence he is. (And yet we know this man, where he is from; but when the Messiah shall come, no one shall know where he is from.)

²⁸ Therefore Jesus cried in the temple (when he was) teaching, and said, Ye know me, and ye know of whence I am; and I came not of myself, but he is true that sent me, whom ye know not.

²⁹ I know him, and if I say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar; but I know him, for of him I am (or for I am from him), and he sent me.

³⁰ Therefore they sought to take (hold of) him, and no man set on him hands, for his hour came not yet. (And so they sought to take hold of him, but no one put his hands on him, for his hour had not yet come, or for it was not yet his time.)

³¹ And many of the people believed in him, and said, When Christ shall come, whether he shall do more tokens than those that this doeth? (or When the Messiah shall come, shall he do more signs, or miracles, than these which he doeth?)

³² The Pharisees heard the people musing of him, (concerning) these things; and the princes and the Pharisees sent ministers, to take him. (The Pharisees heard the people musing about him, concerning these things; and the leaders, or the high priests, and the Pharisees sent their servants, to take hold of him.)

³³ Therefore Jesus said to them, Yet a little time I am with you, and (then) I go to the Father, that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me, and ye shall not find me; and where I am, ye may not come (or ye cannot come).

³⁵ Therefore the Jews said to themselves, Whither shall this go, for we shall not find him? whether he will go into the scattering of heathen men, and will teach the heathen? (And so the Jews said to themselves, Where shall he go, that we shall not be able to find him? shall he go unto the Dispersion among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?)

³⁶ What is this word, which he said, Ye shall seek me, and ye shall not find me; and where I am, ye may not come? (or and where I am, ye cannot come?)

¹ Aftir these thingis Jhesus walkide in to Galilee, for he wolde not walke in to Judee, for the Jewis souyten to sle hym.

² And ther was neiy a feeste dai of the Jewis, Senofegia.

³ And hise britheren seiden to hym, Passe fro hennus, and go in to Judee, that also thi disciplis seen thi werkis that thou doist;

⁴ for no man doith ony thing in hiddlis, and hym silf sekith to be opyn. If thou doist these thingis, schewe thi silf to the world.

⁵ For nether hise britheren bileueden in hym.

⁶ Therfor Jhesus seith to hem, My tyme cam not yit, but youre tyme is euermore redi.

⁷ The world may not hate you, sothely it hatith me; for Y bere witnessyng therof, that the werkis of it ben yuele.

⁸ Go ye vp to this feeste dai, but Y schal not go vp to this feeste dai, for my tyme is not yit fulfillid.

⁹ Whanne he hadde seid these thingis, he dwelte in Galilee.

¹⁰ And aftir that hise britheren weren gon vp, thanne he yede vp to the feeste dai, not opynli, but as in priuyte.

¹¹ Therfor the Jewis souyten hym in the feeste dai, and seiden, Where is he?

¹² And myche grutchyng was of hym among the puple. For summe seiden, That he is good; and othere seiden, Nai, but he disceyueth the puple;

¹³ netheles no man spak opynli of hym, for drede of the Jewis.

¹⁴ But whanne the myddil feeste dai cam, Jhesus wente vp in to the temple, and tauyte.

¹⁵ And the Jewis wondriden, and seiden, Hou can this man lettris, sithen he hath not lerned?

¹⁶ Jhesus answerde to hem, and seide, My doctryne is not myn, but his that sente me.

¹⁷ If ony man wole do his wille, he schal knowe of the techyng, whethir it be of God, or Y speke of my silf.

¹⁸ He that spekith of hym silf, sekith his owne glorie; but he that sekith the glorie of hym that sente hym, is sothefast, and vnriytwisnesse is not in hym.

¹⁹ Whether Moises yaf not to you a lawe, and noon of you doith the lawe?

²⁰ What seken ye to sle me? And the puple answerde, and seide, Thou hast a deuel; who sekith to sle thee?

²¹ Jhesus answerde, and seide to hem, Y haue don o werk, and alle ye wondren.

²² Therfor Moises yaf to you circumcisioun; not for it is of Moyses, but of the fadris; and in the sabat ye circumciden a man.

²³ If a man take circumcicioun in the sabat, that the lawe of Moises be not brokun, han ye indignacioun to me, for Y made al a man hool in the sabat?

²⁴ Nile ye deme aftir the face, but deme ye a riytful doom.

²⁵ Therfor summe of Jerusalem seiden, Whethir this is not he, whom the Jewis seken to sle?

²⁶ and lo! he spekith opynli, and thei seien no thing to hym. Whether the princes knewen verili, that this is Crist?

²⁷ But we knowun this man, of whennus he is; but whanne Crist schal come, no man woot of whennus he is.

²⁸ Therfor Jhesus criede in the temple `techynge, and seide, Ye knowen me, and `ye knowen of whennus Y am; and Y cam not of my silf, but he is trewe that sente me, whom ye knowen not.

²⁹ Y knowe hym, and if Y seie that Y knowe hym not, Y schal be lijk to you, a liere; but Y knowe hym, for of hym Y am, and he sente me.

³⁰ Therfor thei souyten to take hym, and no man sette on hym hoondis, for his our cam not yit.

³¹ And many of the puple bileueden in hym, and seiden, Whanne Crist schal come, whether he schal do mo tokenes, than tho that this doith?

³² Farisees herden the puple musinge of hym these thingis; and the princis and Farisees senten mynystris, to take hym.

³³ Therfor Jhesus seide to hem, Yit a litil tyme Y am with you, and Y go to the fadir, that sente me.

³⁴ Ye schulen seke me, and ye schulen not fynde; and where Y am, ye may not come.

³⁵ Therfor the Jewis seiden to hem silf, Whidur schal this gon, for we schulen not fynde hym? whether he wole go in to the scateryng of hethene men, and wole teche the hethene?

³⁶ What is this word, which he seide, Ye schulen seke me, and ye schulen not fynde; and where Y am, ye moun not come?

¹ And Jesus was walking after these things in Galilee, for he did not wish to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him,

² and the feast of the Jews was nigh — that of tabernacles —

³ his brethren, therefore, said unto him, 'Remove hence, and go away to Judea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works that thou dost;

⁴ for no one in secret doth anything, and himself seeketh to be in public; if thou dost these things — manifest thyself to the world;'

⁵ for not even were his brethren believing in him.

⁶ Jesus, therefore, saith to them, 'My time is not yet present, but your time is always ready;

⁷ the world is not able to hate you, but me it doth hate, because I testify concerning it that its works are evil.

⁸ Ye — go ye up to this feast; I do not yet go up to this feast, because my time hath not yet been fulfilled;'

⁹ and saying these things to them, he remained in Galilee.

¹⁰ And when his brethren went up, then also he himself went up to the feast, not manifestly, but as in secret;

¹¹ the Jews, therefore, were seeking him, in the feast, and said, 'Where is that one?'

¹² and there was much murmuring about him among the multitudes, some indeed said — 'He is good;' and others said, 'No, but he leadeth astray the multitude;'

¹³ no one, however, was speaking freely about him, through fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ And it being now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the temple, and he was teaching,

¹⁵ and the Jews were wondering, saying, 'How hath this one known letters — not having learned?'

¹⁶ Jesus answered them and said, 'My teaching is not mine, but His who sent me;

¹⁷ if any one may will to do His will, he shall know concerning the teaching, whether it is of God, or — I do speak from myself.

¹⁸ 'He who is speaking from himself his own glory doth seek, but he who is seeking the glory of him who sent him, this one is true, and unrighteousness is not in him;

¹⁹ hath not Moses given you the law? and none of you doth the law; why me do ye seek to kill?'

²⁰ The multitude answered and said, 'Thou hast a demon, who doth seek to kill thee?'

²¹ Jesus answered and said to them, 'One work I did, and ye all wonder,

²² because of this, Moses hath given you the circumcision — not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers — and on a sabbath ye circumcise a man;

²³ if a man doth receive circumcision on a sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye wroth with me that I made a man all whole on a sabbath?

²⁴ judge not according to appearance, but the righteous judgment judge.'

²⁵ Certain, therefore, of the Jerusalemites said, 'Is not this he whom they are seeking to kill?

²⁶ and, lo, he doth speak freely, and they say nothing to him; did the rulers at all know truly that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷ but this one — we have known whence he is; and the Christ, when he doth come, no one doth know whence he is.'

²⁸ Jesus cried, therefore, in the temple, teaching and saying, 'Ye have both known me, and ye have known whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but He who sent me is true, whom ye have not known;

²⁹ and I have known Him, because I am from Him, and He did send me.'

³⁰ They were seeking, therefore, to seize him, and no one laid the hand on him, because his hour had not yet come,

³¹ and many out of the multitude did believe in him, and said — 'The Christ — when he may come — will he do more signs than these that this one did?'

³² The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they may take him;

³³ Jesus, therefore, said to them, 'Yet a little time I am with you, and I go away unto Him who sent me;

³⁴ ye will seek me, and ye shall not find; and where I am, ye are not able to come.'

³⁵ The Jews, therefore, said among themselves, 'Whither is this one about to go that we shall not find him? — to the dispersion of the Greeks is he about to go? and to teach the Greeks;

³⁶ what is this word that he said, Ye will seek me, and ye shall not find? and, Where I am, ye are not able to come?'
