The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one
whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went
not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
The next day, the crowd that had remained on the other side of the sea realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded it with His disciples, but they had gone away alone.
When the people therefore saw that Jesus was
not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to
Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to
Capernaum to look for Him.
Jesus answered them and said,
Verily,
verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me,
not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the
loaves, and were filled.
Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is
not because you saw these signs that you are looking for Me, but because you
ate the
loaves and had your fill.
Labour
not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto
everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
Do
not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on Him God the Father has placed His seal of
approval.”
Then Jesus said unto them,
Verily,
verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you
not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.
But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
But as I stated, you have seen Me and still you do not believe.
For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me.
And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.
And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have come down from heaven?’”
Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
not that
anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father.
This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that
anyone may eat of it and
not die.
This is that bread which came down from heaven:
not as your fathers did eat
manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who
ate the
manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live
forever.”
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.
But there are some of you that believe
not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed
not, and who should
betray him.
However, there are some of you who do
not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did
not believe and who would
betray Him.)
Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”
After these things Jesus walked in
Galilee: for he would
not walk in
Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.
After this, Jesus traveled throughout
Galilee. He did
not want to travel in
Judea, because the Jews there were trying to kill Him.
For neither did his brethren believe in him.
For even His own brothers did not believe in Him.
Then Jesus said unto them, My time is
not yet come: but your time is
alway ready.
Therefore Jesus told them, “Although your time is always at hand, My time has not yet come.
Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come.
Go up to the feast on your own. I am not going up to this feast, because My time has not yet come.”
But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.
But after His brothers had gone up to the feast, He also went—not publicly, but in secret.
Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
“My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It comes from Him who sent Me.
Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
Has not Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps it. Why are you trying to kill Me?”
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.
But because Moses gave you
circumcision, you
circumcise a boy on the Sabbath (
not that it is from Moses, but from the patriarchs.)
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?
If a boy can be
circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses will
not be broken, why are you
angry with Me for making the whole man well on the Sabbath?
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
Stop judging by outward appearances, and start judging justly.”
Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?
Then some of the people of Jerusalem began to say, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill?
But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
Yet here He is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying anything to Him. Have the rulers truly recognized that this is the Christ?
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.
Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts,
cried out, “You know Me, and you know where I am from. I have
not come of My own
accord, but He who sent Me is true. You do
not know Him,
Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
So they tried to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come.
You will look for Me, but you will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.”
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?
At this, the Jews said to one another, “Where does He intend to go that we will
not find Him? Will He go where the Jews are
dispersed among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?
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?
What does He mean by saying, ‘You will look for Me, but you will not find Me,’ and, ‘Where I am, you cannot come’?”
(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.)
He was speaking about the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive. For the Spirit had
not yet been given, because Jesus had
not yet been
glorified.
Hath
not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of
Bethlehem, where David was?
Doesn’t the Scripture say that the Christ will come from the line of David and from
Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”
Then came the officers to the chief priests and
Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye
not brought him?
Then the officers returned to the chief priests and
Pharisees, who asked them, “Why didn’t you bring Him in?”
But this people who knoweth
not the law are
cursed.
But this crowd that does
not know the law, they are under a
curse.”
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.
They said this to test Him, in order to have a basis for
accusing Him. But Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with His finger.
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.
Once again, Jesus spoke to the people and said, “I am the light of the world.
Whoever follows Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”
The
Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of
thyself; thy record is
not true.
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.
Jesus replied, “Even if I
testify about Myself, My testimony is
valid, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do
not know where I came from or where I am going.
And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
But even if I do judge, My judgment is true, because I am not alone; I am with the Father who sent Me.
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.
“Where is Your Father?” they asked Him. “You do not know Me or My Father,” Jesus answered. “If you knew Me, you would know My Father as well.”
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.
He spoke these words while teaching in the temple courts, near the treasury. Yet no one seized Him, because His hour had not yet come.
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
Then He told them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.
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.
That is why I told you that you would die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”
They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
They did not understand that He was telling them about the Father.
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.
So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing on My own, but speak exactly what the Father has taught Me.
And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
He who sent Me is with Me. He has not left Me alone, because I always do what pleases Him.”
And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
A slave is
not a permanent member of the family, but a son belongs to it
forever.
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.
But now you are trying to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham never did such a thing.
Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be
not born of
fornication; we have one Father, even God.
You are doing the works of your father.” “We are
not illegitimate children,” they declared. “Our only Father is God Himself.”
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.
Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on My own, but He sent Me.
Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you are unable to accept My message.
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.
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, refusing to
uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, because he is a
liar and the father of lies.
And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
But because I speak the truth, you do not believe Me!
Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
Which of you can prove Me guilty of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe Me?
He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God. The reason you do
not hear is that you do
not belong to God.”
Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we
not well that thou art a
Samaritan, and hast a devil?
The Jews answered Him, “Are we
not right to say that You are a
Samaritan and You have a
demon?”
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.
“I do
not have a
demon,” Jesus replied, “but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.
And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
I do not seek My own glory. There is One who seeks it, and He is the Judge.
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:
Jesus answered, “If I
glorify Myself, My glory means
nothing. The One who glorifies Me is My Father, of whom you say ‘He is our God.’
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.
You do
not know Him, but I know Him. If I said I did
not know Him, I would be a
liar like you. But I do know Him, and I keep His word.
Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and You have seen Abraham?”
The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is
not this he that sat and
begged?
At this, his neighbors and those who had formerly seen him
begging began to ask, “Isn’t this the man who used to sit and
beg?”
Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
“Where is He?” they asked. “I do not know,” he answered.
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.
Because of this, some of the
Pharisees said, “This man is
not from God, for He does
not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was division among them.
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.
The Jews still did not believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight until they summoned his parents
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.
But how he can now see or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him. He is old enough to speak for himself.”
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.
He answered, “Whether He is a
sinner I do
not know. There is one thing I do know: I was blind, but now I see!”
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?
He replied, “I already told you, and you did
not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?”
We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.
We know that God spoke to Moses, but we do not know where this man is from.”
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.
“That is remarkable indeed!” the man said. “You do not know where He is from, and yet He opened my eyes.
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
We know that God does
not listen to sinners, but He does
listen to the one who worships Him and does His will.
Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
Never before has
anyone heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind.
If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
If this man were not from God, He could do no such thing.”
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.
Then Jesus declared, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind may see and those who see may become blind.”
Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
“If you were blind,” Jesus replied, “you would not be guilty of sin. But since you claim you can see, your guilt remains.”
And a stranger will they
not follow, but will
flee from him: for they know
not the voice of strangers.
But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will
flee from him because they do
not recognize his voice.”
This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
Jesus spoke to them using this illustration, but they did not understand what He was telling them.
All that ever came before me are
thieves and robbers: but the sheep did
not hear them.
All who came before Me were
thieves and robbers, but the sheep did
not listen to them.
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.
The
thief comes only to
steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.
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.
The
hired hand is
not the
shepherd, and the sheep are
not his own. When he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf pounces on them and scatters the flock.
The man runs away because he is a
hired servant and is unconcerned for the sheep.
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.
I have other sheep that are
not of this fold. I must bring them in as well, and they will
listen to My voice. Then there will be one flock and one
shepherd.
Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
But others replied, “These are
not the words of a man possessed by a
demon. Can a
demon open the eyes of the blind?”
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.
“I already told you,” Jesus replied, “but you did
not believe. The works I do in My Father’s name
testify on My behalf.
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
But because you are not My sheep, you refuse to believe.
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.
“We are
not stoning You for any good work,” said the Jews, “but for
blasphemy, because You, who are a man, declare
Yourself to be God.”
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
Jesus replied, “Is it not written in your Law: ‘I have said you are gods’?
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
If I am not doing the works of My Father, then do not believe Me.
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.
But if I am doing them, even though you do not believe Me, believe the works themselves, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I am in the Father.”
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.
When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will
not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be
glorified through it.”
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.
Jesus answered, “Are there
not twelve hours of
daylight? If
anyone walks in the
daytime, he will
not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.
And I am
glad for your sakes that I was
not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
and for your sake I am
glad I was
not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
Then said
Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had
not died.
Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would
not have died.
Now Jesus was
not yet come into the town, but was in that place where
Martha met him.
Now Jesus had
not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where
Martha had met Him.
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.
When Mary came to Jesus and saw Him, she fell at His feet and said, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”
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?
But some of them asked, “Could
not this man who opened the eyes of the blind also have kept
Lazarus from dying?”
