John 8:1-59
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?
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.
Temple
in Jerusalem Discourse with Jews
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 9:1-41
The
Healing of a Blind Man
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 10:1-42
Temple
in Jerusalem Discourse with Pharisees
The Good Shepherd
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.

John 11:1-57
The
Raising of Lazarus From The Dead
1 Now a certain man was
sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 (It was that
Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose
brother Lazarus was sick.) 3 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. 4
When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of
God might be glorified thereby. 5
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. 6 When he had heard therefore that he
was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was. 7 Then after that saith
he to his disciples, Let
us go into Judaea again. 8 His
disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought
to stone thee; and goest thou thither again? 9 Jesus
answered, Are there not twelve
hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light
of this world. 10 But if a man walk in the night, he
stumbleth, because there is no light in him. 11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that
I may awake him out of sleep. 12
Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. 13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken
of taking of rest in sleep. 14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
15 And
I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless
let us go unto him. 16 Then said
Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let
us also go, that we may die with him. 17 Then when Jesus
came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already. 18 Now Bethany was
nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off: 19 And many of the Jews came to Martha
and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother. 20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard
that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house. 21 Then
said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my
brother had not died. 22 But I
know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. 23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall
rise again. 24 Martha saith unto
him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at
the last day. 25 Jesus said
unto her, I am the resurrection,
and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me
shall never die. Believest thou this? 27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe
that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world. 28 And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister
secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee. 29 As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto
him. 30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met
him. 31 The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw
Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.
32 Then when Mary
was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. 33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which
came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, 34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see. 35 Jesus wept. 36 Then
said the Jews, Behold how he loved him! 37 And some of them said, Could not this
man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have
died? 38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to
the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. 39 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead,
saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath
been dead four days. 40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest
believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? 41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was
laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. 42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which
stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. 43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried
with a loud voice, Lazarus, come
forth. 44 And he that was dead
came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a
napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose
him, and let him go. 45 Then many of the Jews which came to
Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.
46 But some of them went
their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done. 47 Then gathered
the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What
do we? for this man doeth many miracles. 48 If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the
Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. 49
And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto
them, Ye know nothing at all, 50 Nor consider that it is
expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish
not. 51 And this spake he not of himself: but being high
priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; 52 And not for that
nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were
scattered abroad. 53 Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to
death. 54 Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a
country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his
disciples. 55 And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up
to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves. 56 Then sought they for Jesus, and
spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What
think ye, that he will not come to the feast? 57 Now both the
chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he
were, he should shew it, that they might take him.

John 12:1-50
1 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where
Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. 2 There they made him a
supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him. 3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed
the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the
odour of the ointment. 4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son,
which should betray him, 5 Why was not this ointment sold for
three hundred pence, and given to the poor? 6 This he said,
not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what
was put therein. 7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this. 8 For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always. 9 Much people of the Jews therefore knew
that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus
also, whom he had raised from the dead. 10 But the chief priests consulted that they might
put Lazarus also to death; 11 Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away,
and believed on Jesus. 12 On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when
they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, 13 Took branches of palm trees, and went
forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the
King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.
16 These
things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then
remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these
things unto him. 17 The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of
his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record. 18 For this cause the people also
met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle. 19 The Pharisees therefore
said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing?
behold, the world is gone after him.
Jerusalem Discourse with The People
20 And there were certain
Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast: 21 The same came therefore to
Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus. 22 Philip cometh and
telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus. 23 And Jesus answered them,
saying, The hour is come, that
the Son of man should be glorified.
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of
wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much
fruit. 25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this
world shall keep it unto life eternal. |
my
all
26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and
where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father
honour. 27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this
hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. 28 Father,
glorify thy name. Then came
there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. 29 The people therefore, that stood by, and
heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An
angel spake to him. 30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for
your sakes. 31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall
the prince of this world be cast out. 32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth,
will draw all men unto me. 33 This he said, signifying what death he should die. 34 The people
answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ
abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son
of man? 35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you.
Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness
knoweth not whither he goeth. 36 While ye have light, believe in the light,
that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them. 37
But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him: 38 That
the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord
been revealed? 39 Therefore they could not believe, because
that Esaias said again, 40 He hath blinded their eyes, and
hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with
their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. 41
These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him. 42 Nevertheless among
the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not
confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue: 43 For they loved the
praise of men more than the praise of God. 44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on
me, but on him that sent me. 45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. 46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should
not abide in darkness. 47 And if any man hear my words, and believe
not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

|
48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my
words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the
last day. |
49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the
Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should
speak. 50 And I know that his
commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said
unto me, so I speak.

John 13:1-38
Jerusalem
Discourse with The Disciples
1 Now before the feast of
the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this
world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto
the end. 2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas
Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him; 3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all
things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; 4 He riseth from
supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. 5 After that he
poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with
the towel wherewith he was girded. 6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith
unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? 7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. 8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered
him, If I wash thee not, thou
hast no part with me. 9 Simon
Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands
and my head. 10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his
feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all. 11 For he knew who should betray him;
therefore said he, Ye are not
all clean. 12 So after he had
washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for
so I am. |
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have
washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. 16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant
is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. 17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye
do them. |
18 I speak not of you all: I know whom
I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath
lifted up his heel against me. 19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it
is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he. 20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send
receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. 21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled
in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say
unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22 Then the
disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake. 23 Now there was leaning on
Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. 24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to
him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake. 25 He then lying on Jesus'
breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it? 26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it
to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27 And after the sop Satan entered into
him. Then said Jesus unto him, That
thou doest, do quickly. 28 Now
no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him. 29 For some of them thought,
because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we
have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
30 He then having received
the sop went immediately out: and it was night. 31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus
said, Now is the Son of man
glorified, and God is glorified in him. 32 If God be
glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify
him. 33 Little children, yet a little while I am
with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so
now I say to you. 34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye
love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have
love one to another. 36 Simon
Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me
afterwards.
|
|
37 Peter said unto
him,
Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
38 Jesus answered him,
Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice. |

John 14:1-31
Jerusalem
Discourse with The Disciples
1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I
would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive
you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. |
5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not
whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father,
but by me. |
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from
henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the
Father, and it sufficeth us.
9 Jesus saith unto him,
Have I been so
long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the
Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? 10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words
that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the
works. 11 Believe me that I am in
the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. |
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I
do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my
Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the
Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. 15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father,
and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
|
17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it
seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall
be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no
more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and
I in you.
21 He that hath my commandments,
and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my
Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
|
22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how
is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him,
and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear
is not mine, but the Father's which sent me. 25 These things have I spoken unto you,
being yet present with you.
26 But the Comforter, which is the
Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring
all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth,
give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto
you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father
is greater than I.
29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to
pass, ye might believe.
30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world
cometh, and hath nothing in me.
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave
me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
