1 ¶ After these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judea because the Jews sought to kill him.

2 N ow the feast of the Jews, of the tabernacles, was at hand.

3 H is brethren therefore said unto him, Depart from this place and go into Judea that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

4 F or no one who seeks to be clearly known does anything in secret. If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.

5 F or not even his brethren believed in him.

6 T hen Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.

7 T he world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify of it that its works are evil.

8 G o ye up unto this feast; I go not up yet unto this feast, for my time is not yet fulfilled.

9 A nd having said these things unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

10 B ut when his brethren were gone up, then he also went up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

11 T hen the Jews sought him at the feast and said, Where is he?

12 A nd there was much murmuring among the people concerning him, for some said, He is a good man; others said, No, but he deceives the people.

13 B ut no one spoke 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 A nd the Jews marvelled, saying, How does this man know letters, having never learned?

16 J esus answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

17 I f anyone desires to do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it is of God or whether I speak of myself.

18 H e that speaks of himself seeks his own glory, but he that seeks the glory of him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

19 D id not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do ye go about to kill me?

20 T he people answered and said, Thou hast a demon; who goes about to kill thee?

21 J esus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.

22 M oses 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 I f a man on the sabbath day receives circumcision without the law of Moses being broken, are ye angry at me because I have made a man entirely whole on the sabbath day?

24 J udge not according to the appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.

25 T hen one of those of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

26 B ut, behold, he speaks boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Have the rulers truly understood that this is indeed the Christ?

27 B ut we know where this man is from; but when the Christ comes, no one shall know where he is from.

28 T hen Jesus cried out in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye know me, and ye know from where I come, but I have not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

29 B ut I know him, for I am from him, and he has sent me.

30 T hen they sought to take him, but no one laid hands on him because his hour was not yet come.

31 A nd many of the people believed in him and said, When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than these which this man has done?

32 T he Pharisees heard the people that murmured such things concerning him, and the princes of the priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him.

33 T hen Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while I shall be with you, and then I shall go unto him that sent me.

34 Y e shall seek me and shall not find me, and where I shall be, ye shall not be able to come.

35 T hen the Jews said among themselves, Where will he go that we shall not find him? Will he go unto the dispersed among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

36 W hat manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me and shall not find me, and where I shall be ye shall not be able to come?

37 ¶ In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, If any man thirsts, let him come unto me and drink.

38 H e that believes in me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

39 ( But this he spoke concerning the Spirit, which those that believe on him should receive, for the Holy Spirit was not yet given because Jesus was not yet glorified.)

40 T hen many of the people, when they heard this word, said, Truly this is the Prophet.

41 O thers said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall the Christ come out of Galilee?

42 H as not the scripture said, That the Christ comes of the seed of David and out of the town of Bethlehem where David was?

43 S o there was a division among the people because of him.

44 A nd some of them would have taken him, but no one laid hands on him.

45 ¶ Then the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees came, and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?

46 T he officers answered, Never has anyone spoken like this man.

47 T hen the Pharisees answered them, Are ye also deceived?

48 H ave any of the princes or of the Pharisees believed on him?

49 B ut this people who do not know the law are cursed.

50 N icodemus said unto them (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them),

51 D oes our law judge any man before it hears him and knows what he does?

52 T hey answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search and see, for a prophet has never arisen out of Galilee.

53 A nd each one went unto his own house.
