John 7:2-13

2Now the tabernacles, the feast of the Jews, was near.

3His brethren therefore said to him, Remove hence and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest;

4for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be [known] in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world:

5for neither did his brethren believe on him.

6Jesus therefore says to them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.

7The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.

8Ye, go ye up to this feast. I go not up to this feast, for my time is not yet fulfilled.

9Having said these things to them he abode in Galilee.

10But when his brethren had gone up, then he himself also went up to the feast, not openly, but as in secret.

11The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

12And there was much murmuring concerning him among the crowds. Some said, He is [a] good [man]; others said, No; but he deceives the crowd.

13However, no one spoke openly concerning him on account of [their] fear of the Jews.
