John 7:14-28

14But when it was nowG1161 the middle of the feastG1859, JesusG2424 wentG305 up into the templeG2411 and taughtG1321.

15The JewsG2453 thereforeG3767 wonderedG2296, sayingG3004, HowG4459 knows this [manG3778] lettersG1121, having neverG3361 learnedG3129?

16JesusG2424 thereforeG3767 answeredG611 them and saidG3004, My doctrine isG1510 not mine, but [that] of him that has sentG3992 me.

17If any oneG5100 desireG2309 to practise his will, he shall knowG1097 concerningG4012 the doctrine, whether it isG1510 of 1GodG2316, or [that] I speakG2980 from myself.

18He that speaksG2980 from himself seeksG2212 his ownG2398 gloryG1391; but he that seeksG2212 the gloryG1391 of him that has sentG3992 him, he isG1510 trueG227, and unrighteousnessG93 isG1510 not in him.

19Has not MosesG3475 givenG1325 you the lawG3551, and no oneG3762 of you practises the lawG3551? WhyG5101 do ye seekG2212 to killG615 me?

20The crowdG3793 answeredG611 [and said], Thou hast a demonG1140: who seeksG2212 to killG615 thee?

21JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to them, I have done oneG1520 workG2041, and ye all wonderG2296.

22Therefore MosesG3475 gaveG1325 you circumcisionG4061 (not that it isG1510 of MosesG3475, but of the fathersG3962), and ye circumciseG4059 a manG444 on sabbathG4521.

23If a manG444 receivesG2983 circumcisionG4061 on sabbathG4521, that the lawG3551 of MosesG3475 may not be violated, are ye angry with me because I have madeG4160 a manG444 entirelyG3650 soundG5199 on sabbathG4521?

24JudgeG2919 not accordingG2596 to sight, but judgeG2919 righteousG1342 judgmentG2920.

25Some thereforeG3767 of those of JerusalemG2415 saidG3004, IsG1510 not this he whom they seekG2212 to killG615?

26and beholdG2396, he speaksG2980 openlyG3954, and they sayG3004 nothing to him. Have the rulersG758 then indeed recognised that this isG1510 the ChristG5547?

27But [as to] this [manG3778] we knowG1097 whence he isG1510. NowG1161 [as to] the ChristG5547, whenG3752 he comesG2064, no oneG3762 knowsG1097 whence he isG1510.

28JesusG2424 thereforeG3767 criedG2896 out in the temple, teachingG1321 and sayingG3004, Ye both know me and ye know whence I amG1510; and I amG1510 not comeG2064 of myself, but he that sentG3992 me isG1510 trueG228, whom ye do not know.
