John 7:31-36

31But 1many of the crowd believed in Him; and they were saying, “2When 3the Christ comes, He will not perform more 4 5signs than those which this man has, will He?”

32The Pharisees heard the crowd muttering these things about Him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent 6officers to 7seize Him. 33Therefore Jesus said, “8For a little while longer I am with you, then 9I go to Him who sent Me. 34 10You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.” 35 11The Jews then said to one another, “12Where does this man intend to go that we will not find Him? He is not intending to go to 13the Dispersion among 14the Greeks, and teach the Greeks, is He? 36What is this statement that He said, ‘15You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come’?”
