John 7
1 After these things Jesus walked about in Galilee: for He was not willing to walk about in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill Him.
And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2 And the feast of the Jews, tabernacles, was nigh.
Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand.
3 Then His brothers said to Him; Depart hence, and go into Judea; in order that thy disciples shall see thy works which thou art doing. For no one does anything in secret, and Himself seeks to be public.
His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest.
4 If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.
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 His brothers were not believing on Him.
For even his brethren did not believe on him.
6 Jesus says to them, My time is not yet; but your time is always ready.
Jesus therefore saith unto them, My time is not yet come; but your time is alway ready.
7 The world is not able to hate you; but it hates me, because I testify against it, that its works are evil.
The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its works are evil.
8 You go up to the feast: I do not go to this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.
Go ye up unto the feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.
9 Saying these things He remained in Galilee.
And having said these things unto them, he abode [still] in Galilee.
10 And when His brothers went up to the feast, then Himself also went up, not openly, but in secret.
But when his brethren were gone up unto the feast, then went he also up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.
11 Then the Jews were seeking Him at the feast, and saying, Where is He?
The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
12 And there was much murmuring in the crowd concerning Him: some indeed were saying, That He is good; others were saying, No, but He deceives the multitude.
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 No one indeed was speaking openly concerning Him on account of the fear of the Jews.
Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
14 But the feast already being midway, Jesus came up into the temple, and was teaching.
But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
15 Then the Jews marveled, saying; How does this one know letters, never having been taught?
The Jews therefore marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?
16 Then Jesus responded to them, and said, My teaching is not mine, but of Him that sent me;
Jesus therefore answered them, and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that 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 speak for myself.
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: he that seeketh the glory of Him that sent Him, the same is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
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 no one of you does the law. Why do you seek to kill me?
Did not Moses give you the law, and [yet] none of you doeth the law? Why seek ye to kill me?
20 And the multitude responded, Thou hast a demon: who seeks to kill thee?
The multitude answered, Thou hast a devil: who seeketh to kill thee?
21 Jesus responded and said to them, I did one work, and you were all astonished.
Jesus answered and said unto them, I did one work, and ye all marvel.
22 Moses gave you circumcision, not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers, and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.
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 receives circumcision on the Sabbath, in order that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you mad at me, because I made a man entirely whole on the Sabbath?
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 sight, but judge righteous judgment.
Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
25 Then certain ones of Jerusalemites were saying, Is not this He whom they wished to kill?
Some therefore of them of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
26 And behold He speaks publicly, and they say nothing to Him. Whether do the rulers truly know that He is the Christ?
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 But we know Him whence He is: but when Christ may come, no one knows whence He is.
Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence he is.
28 Then Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, You indeed know me, and know whence I am; and I have not come of myself, but the one sending me is true, whom you do not know.
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 with Him, and He sent me.
I know him; because I am from him, and he sent me.
30 Then they were seeking to arrest Him: and no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.
They sought therefore to take him: and no man laid his hand on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 And many from the multitude believed on Him; and continued to say, When Christ may come, will He do more miracles than this one is doing?
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 crowd murmuring these things concerning Him; and the chief priests and Pharisees sent officers, that they should arrest Him.
The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him.
33 Then Jesus said, Yet a little while I am with you, and I go to Him that sent me.
Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him that sent me.
34 You will seek me, and will not find me: and where I am, you are not able to come.
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come.
35 Then the Jews said to themselves, Where is He about to go, that we shall not find Him? is He about to go into the Dispersion of the Greek, and teach the Greeks?
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 which He said, You shall seek me, and not find me: and where I am, you are not able to come?
What is this word that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come?
37 And on the last great day of the feast, Jesus stood and continued to cry out, saying, If any one thirst, let him come and drink.
Now on the last day, the great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38 The one believing on me, as the Scripture said, out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water.
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
39 And He spoke this concerning the Spirit, whom those believing on Him were about to receive: for the Spirit was not yet; because Jesus was not yet glorified.
But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believed on him were to receive: for the Spirit was not yet [given]; because Jesus was not yet glorified.
40 Then those hearing these words from the multitude, were saying, This is truly the prophet;
[Some] of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, This is of a truth the prophet.
41 others were saying, He is the Christ; others were saying, For whether does Christ come out of Galilee?
Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, What, doth the Christ come out of Galilee?
42 Did not the Scripture say, that Christ comes from the seed of David and from the village of Bethlehem, where David was?
Hath not the scripture said that the Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?
43 Then there was a schism in the crowd on account of Him:
So there arose a division in the multitude because of him.
44 and some of them wished to arrest Him; but no one laid hands on Him.
And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.
45 Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, Why did you not bring Him?
The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why did ye not bring him?
46 The officers responded, Never did a man so speak, as this man speaks.
The officers answered, Never man so spake.
47 And the Pharisees responded to them; Are ye also deceived?
The Pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also led astray?
48 Whether has any one of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on Him?
Hath any of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees?
49 But this crowd knowing not the law are accursed.
But this multitude which knoweth not the law are accursed.
50 Nicodemus being one of them, says to them;
Nicodemus saith unto them (he that came to him before, being one of them),
51 Whether does our law judge a man, until it may first hear from him and know what he does?
Doth our law judge a man, except it first hear from himself and know what he doeth?
52 They responded and said to him, Whither art thou also from Galilee? Search, and see that no prophet rises out of Galilee.
They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and see that out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
[And they went every man unto his own house:
