| John 7: (ASV) |
| 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? |
| 37) 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) He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, from within him shall flow rivers of living water. |
| 39) 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) Some of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, This is of a truth the prophet. |
| 41) Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, What, doth the Christ come out of Galilee? |
| 42) Hath not the scripture said that the Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was? |
| 43) So there arose a division in the multitude because of him. |
| 44) And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him. |
| 45) The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why did ye not bring him? |
| 46) The officers answered, Never man so spake. |
| 47) The Pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also led astray? |
| 48) Hath any of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees? |
| 49) But this multitude that knoweth not the law are accursed. |
| 50) Nicodemus saith unto them (he that came to him before, being one of them), |
| 51) Doth our law judge a man, except it first hear from himself and know what he doeth? |
| 52) They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and see that out of Galilee ariseth no prophet. |
| 53) [And they went every man unto his own house: |
