CHAPTER 4
John 4:1-3
1 When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was
making and baptizing more disciples than John 2 (although Jesus himself
baptized not, but his disciples), 3 he left Judea, and departed again into
Galilee.
John 4:4-26
4 And he must needs pass through Samaria. 5 So he cometh to a city of
Samaria, called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his
son Joseph: 6 and Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied
with his journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour. 7
There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give
me to drink. 8 For his disciples were gone away into the city to buy food.
9 The Samaritan woman therefore saith unto him, How is it that thou, being
a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? (For Jews have no
dealings with Samaritans.) 10 Jesus answered and said unto unto her, If
thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to
drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living
water. 11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with,
and the well is deep: whence then hast thou that living water? 12 Art thou
greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof
himself, and his sons, and his cattle? 13 Jesus answered and said unto her,
Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again: 14 but whosoever
drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the
water that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing
up unto eternal life. 15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water,
that I thirst not, neither come all the way hither to draw. 16 Jesus saith
unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. 17 The woman answered and
said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I
have no husband: 18 for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now
hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said truly. 19 The woman saith unto
him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in
this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought
to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh,
when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the
Father. 22 Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we
know; for salvation is from the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is,
when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for
such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers. 24 God is a Spirit: and
they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth. 25 The woman saith
unto him, I know that Messiah cometh (he that is called Christ): when he is
come, he will declare unto us all things. 26 Jesus saith unto her, I that
speak unto thee am he.
John 4:27-42
27 And upon this came his disciples; and they marvelled that he was
speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest
thou with her? 28 So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the
city, and saith to the people, 29 Come, see a man, who told me all things
that ever I did: can this be the Christ? 30 They went out of the city, and
were coming to him. 31 In the mean while the disciples prayed him, saying,
Rabbi, eat. 32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not.
33 The disciples therefore said one to another, Hath any man brought him
aught to eat? 34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him
that sent me, and to accomplish his work. 35 Say not ye, There are yet four
months, and then cometh the harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your
eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white already unto harvest. 36
He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal;
that he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. 37 For herein
is the saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. 38 I sent you to reap
that whereon ye have not labored: others have labored, and ye are entered
into their labor. 39 And from that city many of the Samaritans believed on
him because of the word of the woman, who testified, He told me all things
that ever I did. 40 So when the Samaritans came unto him, they besought him
to abide with them: and he abode there two days. 41 And many more believed
because of his word; 42 and they said to the woman, Now we believe, not
because of thy speaking: for we have heard for ourselves, and know that
this is indeed the Saviour of the world.
John 4:43-54
43 And after the two days he went forth from thence into Galilee. 44 For
Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen
all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went
unto the feast. 46 He came therefore again unto Cana of Galilee, where he
made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick
at Capernaum. 47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into
Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and
heal his son; for he was at the point of death. 48 Jesus therefore said
unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will in no wise believe. 49
The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die. 50 Jesus
saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that
Jesus spake unto him, and he went his way. 51 And as he was now going down,
his servants met him, saying, that his son lived. 52 So he inquired of them
the hour when he began to amend. They said therefore unto him, Yesterday at
the seventh hour the fever left him. 53 So the father knew that it was at
that hour in which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself
believed, and his whole house. 54 This is again the second sign that Jesus
did, having come out of Judaea into Galilee.
CHAPTER 5
John 5:1-16
1 After these things there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the sheep gate a pool, which is
called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches. 3 In these lay a multitude
of them that were sick, blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of
the water. 4for an angel of the Lord went down at certain seasons into the
pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of
the waters stepped in was made whole, with whatsoever disease he was
holden. 5 And a certain man was there, who had been thirty and eight years
in his infirmity. 6 When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been now
a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wouldest thou be made whole? 7
The sick man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled,
to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down
before me. 8 Jesus saith unto him, Arise, take up thy bed, and walk. 9 And
straightway the man was made whole, and took up his bed and walked. Now it
was the sabbath on that day. 10 So the Jews said unto him that was cured,
It is the sabbath, and it is not lawful for thee to take up thy bed. 11 But
he answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy
bed, and walk. 12 They asked him, Who is the man that said unto thee, Take
up thy bed, and walk? 13 But he that was healed knew not who it was; for
Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in the place. 14
Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou
art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing befall thee. 15 The man
went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him whole. 16
And for this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did these things
on the sabbath.
John 5:17-30
17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh even until now, and I work.
18 For this cause therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because
he not only brake the sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making
himself equal with God. 19 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them,
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what
he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doeth, these the Son
also doeth in like manner. 20 For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth
him all things that himself doeth: and greater works than these will he
show him, that ye may marvel. 21 For as the Father raiseth the dead and
giveth them life, even so the Son also giveth life to whom he will. 22 For
neither doth the Father judge any man, but he hath given all judgment unto
the Son; 23 that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He
that honoreth not the Son honoreth not the Father that sent him. 24 Verily,
verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that
sent me, hath eternal life, and cometh not into judgment, but hath passed
out of death into life. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour cometh,
and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they
that hear shall live. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself, even so
gave he to the Son also to have life in himself: 27 and he gave him
authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man. 28 Marvel not at
this: for the hour cometh, in which all that are in the tombs shall hear
his voice, 29 and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the
resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection
of judgment. 30 I can of myself do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my
judgment is righteous; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of
him that sent me. John 5:31-47
31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. 32 It is another
that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth
of me is true. 33 Ye have sent unto John, and he hath borne witness unto
the truth. 34 But the witness which I receive is not from man: howbeit I
say these things, that ye may be saved. 35 He was the lamp that burneth and
shineth; and ye were willing to rejoice for a season in his light. 36 But
the witness which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which
the Father hath given me to accomplish, the very works that I do, bear
witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. 37 And the Father that sent
me, he hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any
time, nor seen his form. 38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for
whom he sent, him ye believe not. 39 Ye search the scriptures, because ye
think that in them ye have eternal life; and these are they which bear
witness of me; 40 and ye will not come to me, that ye may have life. 41 I
receive not glory from men. 42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of
God in yourselves. 43 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not:
if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. 44 How can ye
believe, who receive glory one of another, and the glory that cometh from
the only God ye seek not? 45 Think not that I will accuse you to the
Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, on whom ye have set
your hope. 46 For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote
of me. 47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my
words? CHAPTER 6
John 6:1-14
1 After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of
Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude followed
him, because they beheld the signs which he did on them that were sick. 3
And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there he sat with his disciples. 4
Now the passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. 5 Jesus therefore
lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great multitude cometh unto him,
saith unto Philip, Whence are we to buy bread, that these may eat? 6 And
this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do. 7 Philip
answered him, Two hundred shillings' worth of bread is not sufficient for
them, that every one may take a little. 8 One of his disciples, Andrew,
Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him, 9 There is a lad here, who hath five
barley loaves, and two fishes: but what are these among so many? 10 Jesus
said, Make the people sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So
the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 Jesus therefore took
the loaves; and having given thanks, he distributed to them that were set
down; likewise also of the fishes as much as they would. 12 And when they
were filled, he saith unto his disciples, Gather up the broken pieces which
remain over, that nothing be lost. 13 So they gathered them up, and filled
twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which
remained over unto them that had eaten. 14 When therefore the people saw
the sign which he did, they said, This is of a truth the prophet that
cometh into the world. John 6:15-21
15 Jesus therefore perceiving that they were about to come and take him by
force, to make him king, withdrew again into the mountain himself alone. 16
And when evening came, his disciples went down unto the sea; 17 and they
entered into a boat, and were going over the sea unto Capernaum. And it was
now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. 18 And the sea was rising by
reason of a great wind that blew. 19 When therefore they had rowed about
five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they behold Jesus walking on the sea,
and drawing nigh unto the boat: and they were afraid. 20 But he saith unto
them, It is I; be not afraid. 21 They were willing therefore to receive him
into the boat: and straightway the boat was at the land whither they were
going.
John 6:22-27
22 On the morrow the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea saw
that there was no other boat there, save one, and that Jesus entered not
with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples went away alone 23
(howbeit there came boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they ate
the bread after the Lord had given thanks): 24 when the multitude therefore
saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they themselves got
into the boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. 25 And when they
found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when
camest thou hither? 26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say
unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye ate of the
loaves, and were filled. 27 Work not for the food which perisheth, but for
the food which abideth unto eternal life, which the Son of man shall give
unto you: for him the Father, even God, hath sealed. John 6:28-59
28 They said therefore unto him, What must we do, that we may work the
works of God? 29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of
God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. 30 They said therefore unto
him, What then doest thou for a sign, that we may see, and believe thee?
what workest thou? 31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is
written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat. 32 Jesus therefore said
unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, It was not Moses that gave you
the bread out of heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread out of
heaven. 33 For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven,
and giveth life unto the world. 34 They said therefore unto him, Lord,
evermore give us this bread. 35 Jesus said unto them. I am the bread of
life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me
shall never thirst. 36 But I said unto you, that ye have seen me, and yet
believe not. 37 All that which the Father giveth me shall come unto me; and
him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. 38 For I am come down
from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. 39
And this is the will of him that sent me, that of all that which he hath
given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. 40
For this is the will of my Father, that every one that beholdeth the Son,
and believeth on him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at
the last day. 41 The Jews therefore murmured concerning him, because he
said, I am the bread which came down out of heaven. 42 And they said, Is
not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how
doth he now say, I am come down out of heaven? 43 Jesus answered and said
unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. 44 No man can come to me, except
the Father that sent me draw him: and I will raise him up in the last day.
45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God.
Every one that hath heard from the Father, and hath learned, cometh unto
me. 46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he that is from God, he
hath seen the Father. 47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth
hath eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna
in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread which cometh down
out of heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I am the living
bread which came down out of heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall
live for ever: yea and the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the
life of the world. 52 The Jews therefore strove one with another, saying,
How can this man give us his flesh to eat? 53 Jesus therefore said unto
them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of
man and drink his blood, ye have not life in yourselves. 54 He that eateth
my flesh and drinketh my blood hath eternal life: and I will raise him up
at the last day. 55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink
indeed. 56 He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me, and
I in him. 57 As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the
Father; so he that eateth me, he also shall live because of me. 58 This is
the bread which came down out of heaven: not as the fathers ate, and died;
he that eateth this bread shall live for ever. 59 These things said he in
the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum. John 6:60-71
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when the heard this, said, This is a
hard saying; who can hear it? 61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his
disciples murmured at this, said unto them, Doth this cause you to stumble?
62What then if ye should behold the Son of man ascending where he was
before? 63 It is the spirit that giveth life; the flesh profiteth nothing:
the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, are are life. 64 But
there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning
who they were that believed not, and who it was that should betray him. 65
And he said, For this cause have I said unto you, that no man can come unto
me, except it be given unto him of the Father. 66 Upon this many of his
disciples went back, and walked no more with him. 67 Jesus said therefore
unto the twelve, Would ye also go away? 68 Simon Peter answered him, Lord,
to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. 69 And we have
believed and know that thou art the Holy One of God. 70 Jesus answered
them, Did not I choose you the twelve, and one of you is a devil? 71 Now he
spake of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he it was that should betray
him, being one of the twelve.
