John 7
1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee; for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
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.
2 Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand.
And the feast of the Jews, tabernacles, was nigh.
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.
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.
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.
If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.

8 Go ye up to the feast; I go not up to this feast; for my time is not yet fully come.
You go up to the feast: I do not go to this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.
9 Having said these things, he remained in Galilee.
Saying 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.
And when His brothers went up to the feast, then Himself also went up, not openly, but in secret.
11 The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is that man?
Then the Jews were seeking Him at the feast, and saying, Where is He?
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.

14 But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
But the feast already being midway, Jesus came up into the temple, and was teaching.
15 The Jews therefore marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?
Then the Jews marveled, saying; How does this one know letters, never having been taught?
16 Jesus therefore answered them, and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that sent me.
Then Jesus responded to them, and said, My teaching is not mine, but of Him 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.
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.

20 The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon! Who seeketh to kill thee?
And the multitude responded, Thou hast a demon: who seeks to kill thee?
21 Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one good work, and ye are all wondering.
Jesus responded and said to them, I did one work, and you were all astonished.
22 Moses hath given you circumcision, (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers; ) and ye on the sabbath circumcise a man.
Moses gave you circumcision, not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers, and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.
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?
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?

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.
But we know Him whence He is: but when Christ may come, no one knows 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.
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.
29 I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.
I know Him, because I am with Him, and He sent me.
30 Therefore they sought to take him; but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

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?

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?
