John 7
[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 Judaea, 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? [37] In the last
day, that 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, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living
water.
[39] (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him
should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus
was not yet glorified.)
[40] Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a
truth this is the Prophet.
[41] Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out
of Galilee?
[42] Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David,
and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was? [43] So there was a
division among the people because of him. [44] And some of them would have
taken him; but no man laid hands on him. [45] Then came the officers to the
chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not
brought him? [46] The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.
[47] Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived? [48] Have any
of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him? [49] But this people who
knoweth not the law are cursed. [50] Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that
came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)
[51] Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he
doeth? [52] They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee?
Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet. [53] And every man
went unto his own house.

John 8
[1] Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. [2] And early in the morning he
came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat
down, and taught them. [3] And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a
woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, [4] They
say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
[5] Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what
sayest thou?
[6] This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But
Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he
heard them not.
[7] So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto
them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
[8] And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. [9] And they which
heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one,
beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and
the woman standing in the midst. [10] When Jesus had lifted up himself, and
saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine
accusers? hath no man condemned thee? [11] She said, No man, Lord. And
Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
[12] Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light
of life.
[13] The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself;
thy record is not true.
[14] Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet
my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye
cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. [15] Ye judge after the flesh;
I judge no man. [16] And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not
alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
[17] It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
[18] I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me
beareth witness of me.
[19] Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye
neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my
Father also.
[20] These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple:
and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come. [21] Then said
Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in
your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come. [22] Then said the Jews, Will he
kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
[23] And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of
this world; I am not of this world. [24] I said therefore unto you, that ye
shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in
your sins. [25] Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto
them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning. [26] I have
many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I
speak to the world those things which I have heard of him. [27] They
understood not that he spake to them of the Father. [28] Then said Jesus
unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I
am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I
speak these things. [29] And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath
not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. [30] As he
spake these words, many believed on him. [31] Then said Jesus to those Jews
which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples
indeed; [32] And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you
free. [33] They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in
bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? [34] Jesus
answered them, Verily verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is
the servant of sin. [35] And the servant abideth not in the house for ever:
but the Son abideth ever.
[36] If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
[37] I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my
word hath no place in you.
[38] I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye
have seen with your father.
[39] They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith
unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
[40] But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which
I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. [41] Ye do the deeds of your
father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one
Father, even God. [42] Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye
would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of
myself, but he sent me. [43] Why do ye not understand my speech? even
because ye cannot hear my word.
[44] Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will
do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth,
because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of
his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. [45] And because I tell
you the truth, ye believe me not. [46] Which of you convinceth me of sin?
And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
[47] He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not,
because ye are not of God.
[48] Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou
art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
[49] Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do
dishonour me.
[50] And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
[51] Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall
never see death.
[52] Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil.
Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my
saying, he shall never taste of death.
[53] Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the
prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? [54] Jesus answered, If I
honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of
whom ye say, that he is your God: [55] Yet ye have not known him; but I
know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto
you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
[56] Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
[57] Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and
hast thou seen Abraham?
[58] Jesus said unto them, Verily,verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
[59] Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and
went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

John 9
[1] And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
[2] And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or
his parents, that he was born blind? [3] Jesus answered, Neither hath this
man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made
manifest in him. [4] I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is
day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
[5] As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. [6] When he
had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and
he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, [7] And said unto him,
Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went
his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
[8] The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he
was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged? [9] Some said, This is
he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
[10] Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened? [11] He
answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine
eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and
washed, and I received sight. [12] Then said they unto him, Where is he? He
said, I know not. [13] They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was
blind. [14] And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened
his eyes.
[15] Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight.
He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
[16] Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because
he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner
do such miracles? And there was a division among them. [17] They say unto
the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine
eyes? He said, He is a prophet. [18] But the Jews did not believe
concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they
called the parents of him that had received his sight.
[19] And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born
blind? how then doth he now see?
[20] His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and
that he was born blind:
[21] But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his
eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself. [22]
These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews
had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he
should be put out of the synagogue. [23] Therefore said his parents, He is
of age; ask him. [24] Then again called they the man that was blind, and
said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner. [25]
He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I
know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see. [26] Then said they to him
again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?
[27] He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear:
wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples? [28] Then
they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses'
disciples.
[29] We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not
from whence he is.
[30] The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing,
that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes. [31]
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of
God, and doeth his will, him he heareth. [32] Since the world began was it
not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
[33] If this man were not of God, he could do nothing. [34] They answered
and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach
us? And they cast him out. [35] Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and
when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of
God? [36] He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on
him? [37] And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he
that talketh with thee.
[38] And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him. [39] And Jesus
said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might
see; and that they which see might be made blind. [40] And some of the
Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we
blind also?
[41] Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now
ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

John 10
[1] Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into
the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a
robber.
[2] But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. [3]
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his
own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. [4] And when he putteth forth his
own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know
his voice. [5] And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him:
for they know not the voice of strangers.
[6] This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things
they were which he spake unto them. [7] Then said Jesus unto them again,
Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
[8] All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did
not hear them.
[9] I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall
go in and out, and find pasture.
[10] The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I
am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly.
[11] I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
[12] But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep
are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the
wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. [13] The hireling fleeth,
because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
[14] I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. [15]
As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life
for the sheep.
[16] And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must
bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one
shepherd.
[17] Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I
might take it again.
[18] No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to
lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I
received of my Father.
[19] There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
[20] And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
[21] Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a
devil open the eyes of the blind?
[22] And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was
winter. [23] And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. [24] Then
came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make
us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. [25] Jesus answered
them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's
name, they bear witness of me. [26] But ye believe not, because ye are not
of my sheep, as I said unto you. [27] My sheep hear my voice, and I know
them, and they follow me: [28] And I give unto them eternal life; and they
shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. [29]
My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to
pluck them out of my Father's hand. [30] I and my Father are one.
[31] Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. [32] Jesus answered
them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those
works do ye stone me? [33] The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work
we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man,
makest thyself God. [34] Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your
law, I said, Ye are gods?
[35] If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the
scripture cannot be broken;
[36] Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the
world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? [37] If I do
not the works of my Father, believe me not. [38] But if I do, though ye
believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the
Father is in me, and I in him. [39] Therefore they sought again to take
him: but he escaped out of their hand,
[40] And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first
baptized; and there he abode.
[41] And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all
things that John spake of this man were true. [42] And many believed on him
there.
