< John 7 >

1 And after these things was walking Jesus in Galilee; not for He was desiring in Judea to walk, because were seeking Him the Jews to kill.
After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2 Was now near the feast of the Jews of Booths.
Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.
3 Said therefore to Him the brothers of Him; do depart from here and do go into Judea so that also the disciples of You (will see *N+kO) of You the works that You are doing;
His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judæa, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.
4 No [one] for anything in secret does and seeks himself in public to be; If these things You do, do show Yourself to the world.
For [there is] no man [that] doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.
5 Not even for the brothers of Him were believing in Him.
For neither did his brethren believe in him.
6 Says therefore to them Jesus; The time for Me not yet is come, but the time of you always is ready.
Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.
7 Not is able the world to hate you, Me myself however it hates, because I myself bear witness concerning it that the works of it evil are.
The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.
8 You yourselves do go up to feast (this; *k) I myself (not *N+kO) am going up to feast this, for My time not yet has been fulfilled.
Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come.
9 These things now having said (He himself *N+KO) He remained in Galilee.
When he had said these words unto them, he abode [still] in Galilee.
10 When however had gone up the brothers of Him to the feast, then also He himself went up not openly but as in secret.
But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.
11 The therefore Jews were seeking Him at the feast and were saying; Where is He?
Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
12 And murmuring about Him there was much among the crowds. Some indeed were saying that Good He is, Others however were saying; No, but He deceives the people.
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 No [one] however publicly was speaking about Him because of the fear of the Jews.
Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
14 Now also of the feast being in the middle went up Jesus into the temple and was teaching.
Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
15 (and *k) Were marveling (then *NO) the Jews saying; How this one writings knows not having studied?
And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?
16 Answered (therefore *NO) them Jesus and said: My teaching not is of Myself but of the [One who] having sent Me;
Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 If anyone shall desire the will of Him to do, he will know concerning the teaching whether from God it is or I myself from Myself speak.
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 The [one] from himself speaking the glory [their] own seeks; the [One] however seeking the glory of the [One who] having sent Him, He true is, and unrighteousness in Him not is.
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 Not Moses (has given *NK+o) to you the law? and no [one] of you keeps the law! Why Me do you seek to kill?
Did not Moses give you the law, and [yet] none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
20 Answered the crowd (and said: *k) A demon You have; who You seeks to kill?
The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee?
21 Answered Jesus and said to them; One work I did, and all you marvel.
Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.
22 Because of this: Moses has given you circumcision — not that of Moses it is but of the fathers — also on Sabbath you circumcise a man.
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.
23 If circumcision receives a man on Sabbath so that not shall be broken the law of Moses, with Me myself are you angry because entirely a man sound I made on [the] Sabbath?
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 Not do judge according to appearance, but the righteous judgment (do judge. *N+kO)
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
25 Were saying therefore some of those of Jerusalem; Not this is he whom they seek to kill?
Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?
26 And behold publicly He speaks, and no [thing] to Him they say. otherwise otherwise Truly have recognized the rulers that this is (truly *K) the Christ?
But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
27 But this [man] we know from where He is; The however Christ whenever He may come, no [one] knows from where He is.
Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
28 Cried out therefore in the temple teaching Jesus and saying; Me Me you know and you know from where I am; and of Myself not I have come, but is true the [One] having sent Me whom you yourselves not know;
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 I myself (now *k) know Him, because from Him I am, and He and He Me sent.
But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
30 They were seeking therefore Him to take, but no [one] laid upon Him the hand, because not yet had come the hour of Him.
Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 Out of the crowd now many believed in Him and were saying (that: *k) The Christ When He may come, (Surely not *N+kO) more signs (than these things *k) will He do than this [man] has done?
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 Heard the Pharisees the crowd murmuring about Him these things, and sent the chief priests and the Pharisees officers that they may seize Him.
The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.
33 Said therefore (to them *k) Jesus; Yet time a little with you I am and I go to the [One] having sent Me.
Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and [then] I go unto him that sent me.
34 You will seek Me and not will find Me, and where am I myself you yourselves not are able to come.
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot come.
35 Said therefore the Jews among themselves; Where He is about to go that we ourselves not will find Him? Surely to the Dispersion among the Greeks is He about to go and to teach the Greeks?
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 is word this that He said; You will seek Me and not will find (Me, *NK) and Where am I myself you yourselves not are able to come?
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 now the last day the great [day] of the feast had stood Jesus and cried out saying; If anyone shall thirst, he should come to Me and should drink.
In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38 The [one] believing in Me myself, even as has said the Scripture: Rivers out of the belly of him will flow of water living.
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
39 This now He said concerning the Spirit (which *N+kO) were about to receive those (having believed *N+kO) in Him; not yet for was [the] Spirit (Holy *KO) (given *O) because Jesus (not yet *N+kO) was glorified.
(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 *K) from the crowd therefore having heard (the *N+kO) (words *N+KO) these were saying (that: *o) This is truly the Prophet.
Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.
41 Others were saying; This is the Christ; (Those *N+kO) however were saying; Surely not for out of Galilee the Christ comes?
Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?
42 (Surely *N+kO) the Scripture has said that out of the seed of David and from Bethlehem the village where was David comes the Christ
Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?
43 A division therefore occurred in the crowd because of Him.
So there was a division among the people because of him.
44 Some now were desiring of them to seize Him, but no [one] (laid *NK+o) on Him the hands.
And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.
45 Came therefore the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees, and said to them that; Because of why not did you bring Him?
Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?
46 Answered the officers; Never spoke like this a man (as *ko) (this *KO) (man. *KO)
The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.
47 Answered therefore them the Pharisees; Surely not also you yourselves have been deceived?
Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived?
48 Surely not any of the rulers has believed on Him or of the Pharisees?
Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?
49 But crowd this not knowing the law (cursed *N+kO) are.
But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.
50 Says Nicodemus to them, the [one] having come (at night *K) to Him (the *N) (former *NO) one being of them;
Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them, )
51 Surely not the law of us does judge the man only unless it shall hear (first *N+kO) from him and may know what he does?
Doth our law judge [any] man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?
52 They answered and they said to him; Surely not also you yourself from Galilee are? do search and do see that out of Galilee a prophet not (is raised. *N+kO)
They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
53 (And *KO) (he went *K+o) (each to the home of him, *KO)
And every man went unto his own house.
