| John. | |
| CH. VII. 11-53. CH. VIII. 1. | |
| 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.[199] | |
| 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 judgement. | |
| 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,[200] 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,[201] 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,[202]
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. | |
| CH. VIII. | |
| Jesus went unto the mount of
Olives:[203] | |
| John. | |
| CH. VIII. 2-11. | |
| 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[204] commanded
us, that such should be stoned:[205]
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[206] 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. | |
| John. | |
| CH. VIII. 12-59. | |
| 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[207] 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.[208] | |
| 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.[209] | |
| 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. | |
| Luke. | |
| CH. X. 25-37. | |
| 25 And behold, a certain lawyer
stood up, and tempted him, saying,
Master, what shall I do to inherit
eternal life? | |
| 26 He said unto him, What is
written in the law? how readest
thou? | |
| 27 And he answering said, Thou
shalt love the Lord thy God with
all thy heart, and with all thy soul,
and with all thy strength, and with
all thy mind; and thy neighbour as
thyself.[210] | |
| 28 And he said unto him, Thou
hast answered right: this do, and
thou shalt live.[211] | |
| 29 But he, willing to justify himself,
said unto Jesus, And who is my
neighbour? | |
| 30 And Jesus answering, said, A
certain man went down[212] from Jerusalem
to Jericho, and fell among thieves,
which stripped him of his raiment,
and wounded him, and departed, leaving
him half dead. | |
| 31 And by chance there came
down a certain priest that way; and
when he saw him, he passed by on
the other side. | |
| 32 And likewise a Levite, when he
was at the place, came and looked on
him, and passed by on the other side. | |
| 33 But a certain Samaritan, as he
journeyed, came where he was: and
when he saw him, he had compassion
on him, | |
| 34 And went to him, and bound up
his wounds, pouring in oil and wine,
and set him on his own beast, and
brought him to an inn, and took care
of him. | |
| 35 And on the morrow, when he
departed, he took out two pence, and
gave them to the host, and said unto
him, Take care of him: and whatsoever
thou spendest more, when I come
again, I will repay thee. | |
| 36 Which now of these three, thinkest
thou, was neighbour unto him that
fell among the thieves? | |
| 37 And he said, He that shewed
mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto
him, Go, and do thou likewise. | |
