John 7:9-23

9Having saidG3004 these thingsG3778 to them he abode in GalileeG1056.

10But whenG5613 his brethren had goneG305 up, then he himself alsoG2532 wentG305 up to the feastG1859, not openlyG5320, but as in secretG2927.

11The JewsG2453 thereforeG3767 soughtG2212 him at the feastG1859, and saidG3004, WhereG4226 isG1510 he?

12And there wasG1510 muchG4183 murmuring concerningG4012 him among the crowdsG3793. Some saidG3004, He isG1510 [a] goodG18 [man]; othersG243 saidG3004, No; but he deceivesG4105 the crowdG3793.

13HoweverG3305, no oneG3762 spokeG2980 openlyG3954 concerningG4012 him on accountG1223 of [their] fearG5401 of the JewsG2453.

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?
