John 7
1 After this Jesus moved from place to place in Galilee. He would not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were seeking an opportunity to kill Him.
και περιεπατει ο ιησους μετα ταυτα εν τη γαλιλαια ου γαρ ηθελεν εν τη ιουδαια περιπατειν οτι εζητουν αυτον οι ιουδαιοι αποκτειναι
2 But the Jewish Festival of the Tent-Pitching was approaching.
ην δε εγγυς η εορτη των ιουδαιων η σκηνοπηγια
3 So His brothers said to Him, "Leave these parts and go into Judaea, that not only we but your disciples also may witness the miracles which you perform.
ειπον ουν προς αυτον οι αδελφοι αυτου μεταβηθι εντευθεν και υπαγε εις την ιουδαιαν ινα και οι μαθηται σου θεωρησωσιν τα εργα σου α ποιεις
4 For no one acts in secret, desiring all the while to be himself known publicly. Since you are doing these things, show yourself openly to the world."
ουδεις γαρ εν κρυπτω τι ποιει και ζητει αυτος εν παρρησια ειναι ει ταυτα ποιεις φανερωσον σεαυτον τω κοσμω
5 For even His brothers were not believers in Him.
ουδε γαρ οι αδελφοι αυτου επιστευον εις αυτον
6 "My time," replied Jesus, "has not yet come, but for you any time is suitable.
λεγει ουν αυτοις ο ιησους ο καιρος ο εμος ουπω παρεστιν ο δε καιρος ο υμετερος παντοτε εστιν ετοιμος
7 It is impossible for the world to hate you; but me it does hate, because I give testimony concerning it that its conduct is evil.
ου δυναται ο κοσμος μισειν υμας εμε δε μισει οτι εγω μαρτυρω περι αυτου οτι τα εργα αυτου πονηρα εστιν
8 As for you, go up to the Festival. I do not now go up to this Festival, because my time is not yet fully come."
υμεις αναβητε εις την εορτην ταυτην εγω ουπω αναβαινω εις την εορτην ταυτην οτι ο καιρος ο εμος ουπω πεπληρωται
9 Such was His answer, and He remained in Galilee.
ταυτα δε ειπων αυτοις εμεινεν εν τη γαλιλαια
10 When however His brothers had gone up to the Festival, then He also went up, not openly, but as it were privately.
ως δε ανεβησαν οι αδελφοι αυτου τοτε και αυτος ανεβη εις την εορτην ου φανερως αλλ ως εν κρυπτω
11 Meanwhile the Jews at the Festival were looking for Him and were inquiring, "Where is he?"
οι ουν ιουδαιοι εζητουν αυτον εν τη εορτη και ελεγον που εστιν εκεινος
12 Among the mass of the people there was much muttered debate about Him. Some said, "He is a good man." Others said, "Not so: he is imposing on the people."
και γογγυσμος πολυς περι αυτου ην εν τοις οχλοις οι μεν ελεγον οτι αγαθος εστιν αλλοι ελεγον ου αλλα πλανα τον οχλον
13 Yet for fear of the Jews no one spoke out boldly about Him.
ουδεις μεντοι παρρησια ελαλει περι αυτου δια τον φοβον των ιουδαιων
14 But when the Festival was already half over, Jesus went up to the Temple and commenced teaching.
ηδη δε της εορτης μεσουσης ανεβη ο ιησους εις το ιερον και εδιδασκεν
15 The Jews were astonished. "How does this man know anything of books," they said, "although he has never been at any of the schools?"
και εθαυμαζον οι ιουδαιοι λεγοντες πως ουτος γραμματα οιδεν μη μεμαθηκως
16 Jesus answered their question by saying, "My teaching does not belong to me, but comes from Him who sent me.
απεκριθη ουν αυτοις ο ιησους και ειπεν η εμη διδαχη ουκ εστιν εμη αλλα του πεμψαντος με
17 If any one is willing to do His will, he shall know about the teaching, whether it is from God or originates with me.
εαν τις θελη το θελημα αυτου ποιειν γνωσεται περι της διδαχης ποτερον εκ του θεου εστιν η εγω απ εμαυτου λαλω
18 The man whose teaching originates with himself aims at his own glory. He who aims at the glory of Him who sent him teaches the truth, and there is no deception in him.
ο αφ εαυτου λαλων την δοξαν την ιδιαν ζητει ο δε ζητων την δοξαν του πεμψαντος αυτον ουτος αληθης εστιν και αδικια εν αυτω ουκ εστιν
19 Did not Moses give you the Law? And yet not a man of you obeys the Law. Why do you want to kill me?"
ου μωσης δεδωκεν υμιν τον νομον και ουδεις εξ υμων ποιει τον νομον τι με ζητειτε αποκτειναι
20 "You are possessed by a demon," replied the crowd; "no one wants to kill you."
απεκριθη ο οχλος και ειπεν δαιμονιον εχεις τις σε ζητει αποκτειναι
21 "One deed I have done," replied Jesus, "and you are all full of wonder.
απεκριθη ιησους και ειπεν αυτοις εν εργον εποιησα και παντες θαυμαζετε
22 Consider therefore. Moses gave you the rite of circumcision (not that it began with Moses, but with your earlier forefathers), and even on a Sabbath day you circumcise a child.
δια τουτο μωσης δεδωκεν υμιν την περιτομην ουχ οτι εκ του μωσεως εστιν αλλ εκ των πατερων και εν σαββατω περιτεμνετε ανθρωπον
23 If a child is circumcised even on a Sabbath day, are you bitter against me because I have restored a man to perfect health on a Sabbath day?
ει περιτομην λαμβανει ανθρωπος εν σαββατω ινα μη λυθη ο νομος μωσεως εμοι χολατε οτι ολον ανθρωπον υγιη εποιησα εν σαββατω
24 Do not form superficial judgements, but form the judgements that are just."
μη κρινετε κατ οψιν αλλα την δικαιαν κρισιν κρινατε
25 Some however of the people of Jerusalem said, "Is not this the man they are wanting to kill?
ελεγον ουν τινες εκ των ιεροσολυμιτων ουχ ουτος εστιν ον ζητουσιν αποκτειναι
26 But here he is, speaking openly and boldly, and they say nothing to him! Can the Rulers really have ascertained that this man is the Christ?
και ιδε παρρησια λαλει και ουδεν αυτω λεγουσιν μηποτε αληθως εγνωσαν οι αρχοντες οτι ουτος εστιν αληθως ο χριστος
27 And yet we know this man, and we know where he is from; but as for the Christ, when He comes, no one can tell where He is from."
αλλα τουτον οιδαμεν ποθεν εστιν ο δε χριστος οταν ερχηται ουδεις γινωσκει ποθεν εστιν
28 Jesus therefore, while teaching in the Temple, cried aloud, and said, "Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from. And yet I have not come of my own accord; but there is One who has sent me, an Authority indeed, of whom you have no knowledge.
εκραξεν ουν εν τω ιερω διδασκων ο ιησους και λεγων καμε οιδατε και οιδατε ποθεν ειμι και απ εμαυτου ουκ εληλυθα αλλ εστιν αληθινος ο πεμψας με ον υμεις ουκ οιδατε
29 I know Him, because I came from Him, and He sent me."
εγω οιδα αυτον οτι παρ αυτου ειμι κακεινος με απεστειλεν
30 On hearing this they wanted to arrest Him; yet not a hand was laid on Him, because His time had not yet come.
εζητουν ουν αυτον πιασαι και ουδεις επεβαλεν επ αυτον την χειρα οτι ουπω εληλυθει η ωρα αυτου
31 But from among the crowd a large number believed in Him. "When the Christ comes," they said, "will He perform more miracles than this teacher has performed?"
πολλοι δε εκ του οχλου επιστευσαν εις αυτον και ελεγον οτι ο χριστος οταν ελθη μητι πλειονα σημεια τουτων ποιησει ων ουτος εποιησεν
32 The Pharisees heard the people thus expressing their various doubts about Him, and the High Priests and the Pharisees sent some officers to apprehend Him.
ηκουσαν οι φαρισαιοι του οχλου γογγυζοντος περι αυτου ταυτα και απεστειλαν υπηρετας οι φαρισαιοι και οι αρχιερεις ινα πιασωσιν αυτον
33 So Jesus said, "Still for a short time I am with you, and then I go my way to Him who sent me.
ειπεν ουν ο ιησους ετι μικρον χρονον μεθ υμων ειμι και υπαγω προς τον πεμψαντα με
34 You will look for me and will not find me, and where I am you cannot come."
ζητησετε με και ουχ ευρησετε και οπου ειμι εγω υμεις ου δυνασθε ελθειν
35 The Jews therefore said to one another, "Where is he about to betake himself, so that we shall not find him? Will he betake himself to the Dispersion among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
ειπον ουν οι ιουδαιοι προς εαυτους που ουτος μελλει πορευεσθαι οτι ημεις ουχ ευρησομεν αυτον μη εις την διασποραν των ελληνων μελλει πορευεσθαι και διδασκειν τους ελληνας
36 What do those words of his mean, 'You will look for me, but will not find me, and where I am you cannot come'?"
τις εστιν ουτος ο λογος ον ειπεν ζητησετε με και ουχ ευρησετε και οπου ειμι εγω υμεις ου δυνασθε ελθειν
37 On the last day of the Festival--the great day--Jesus stood up and cried aloud. "Whoever is thirsty," He said, "let him come to me and drink.
εν δε τη εσχατη ημερα τη μεγαλη της εορτης ειστηκει ο ιησους και εκραξεν λεγων εαν τις διψα ερχεσθω προς με και πινετω
38 He who believes in me, from within him--as the Scripture has said--rivers of living water shall flow."
ο πιστευων εις εμε καθως ειπεν η γραφη ποταμοι εκ της κοιλιας αυτου ρευσουσιν υδατος ζωντος
39 He referred to the Spirit which those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not bestowed as yet, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
τουτο δε ειπεν περι του πνευματος ου εμελλον λαμβανειν οι πιστευοντες εις αυτον ουπω γαρ ην πνευμα αγιον οτι ιησους ουδεπω εδοξασθη
40 After listening to these discourses, some of the crowd began to say, "This is beyond doubt the Prophet."
πολλοι ουν εκ του οχλου ακουσαντες τον λογον ελεγον ουτος εστιν αληθως ο προφητης
41 Others said, "He is the Christ." But others again, "Not so, for is the Christ to come from Galilee?
αλλοι ελεγον ουτος εστιν ο χριστος αλλοι ελεγον μη γαρ εκ της γαλιλαιας ο χριστος ερχεται
42 Has not the Scripture declared that the Christ is to come of the family of David and from Bethlehem, David's village?"
ουχι η γραφη ειπεν οτι εκ του σπερματος δαυιδ και απο βηθλεεμ της κωμης οπου ην δαυιδ ο χριστος ερχεται
43 So there was a violent dissension among the people on His account.
σχισμα ουν εν τω οχλω εγενετο δι αυτον
44 Some of them wanted at once to arrest Him, but no one laid hands upon Him.
τινες δε ηθελον εξ αυτων πιασαι αυτον αλλ ουδεις επεβαλεν επ αυτον τας χειρας
45 Meanwhile the officers returned to the High Priests and Pharisees, who asked them, "Why have you not brought him?"
ηλθον ουν οι υπηρεται προς τους αρχιερεις και φαρισαιους και ειπον αυτοις εκεινοι δια τι ουκ ηγαγετε αυτον
46 "No mere man has ever spoken as this man speaks," said the officers.
απεκριθησαν οι υπηρεται ουδεποτε ουτως ελαλησεν ανθρωπος ως ουτος ο ανθρωπος
47 "Are you deluded too?" replied the Pharisees;
απεκριθησαν ουν αυτοις οι φαρισαιοι μη και υμεις πεπλανησθε
48 "has any one of the Rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him?
μη τις εκ των αρχοντων επιστευσεν εις αυτον η εκ των φαρισαιων
49 But this rabble who understand nothing about the Law are accursed!"
αλλ ο οχλος ουτος ο μη γινωσκων τον νομον επικαταρατοι εισιν
50 Nicodemus interposed--he who had formerly gone to Jesus, being himself one of them.
λεγει νικοδημος προς αυτους ο ελθων νυκτος προς αυτον εις ων εξ αυτων
51 "Does our Law," he asked, "judge a man without first hearing what he has to say and ascertaining what his conduct is?"
μη ο νομος ημων κρινει τον ανθρωπον εαν μη ακουση παρ αυτου προτερον και γνω τι ποιει
52 "Do you also come from Galilee?" they asked in reply. "Search and see for yourself that no Prophet is of Galilaean origin."
απεκριθησαν και ειπον αυτω μη και συ εκ της γαλιλαιας ει ερευνησον και ιδε οτι προφητης εκ της γαλιλαιας ουκ εγηγερται
53 [So they went away to their several homes;
και απηλθεν εκαστος εις τον οικον αυτου
