John 7:41-52

41OthersG243 were sayingG3004, “ThisG3778 is 1the ChristG5547.” Still othersG3588 were sayingG3004, “2SurelyG3361 3the ChristG5547 is not going to comeG2064 from GalileeG1056, is He? 42Has not the ScriptureG1124 saidG3004 that the ChristG5547 comesG2064 from 4the descendantsG4690 of DavidG1160, and from BethlehemG965, the villageG2968 whereG3699 DavidG1160 was?” 43SoG3767 5a divisionG4978 occurredG1096 in the crowdG3793 becauseG1223 of Him. 446SomeG5100 of them wantedG2309 to seizeG4084 Him, but noG3762 oneG3762 laidG1911 handsG5495 on Him.

45The 7officersG5257 thenG3767 cameG2064 to the chiefG749 priestsG749 and PhariseesG5330, and they saidG3004 to them, “WhyG1223G5101 did you not bringG71 Him?” 46The 8officersG5257 answeredG611, “9NeverG3763 has a manG444 spokenG2980 the wayG3779 thisG3779 manG444 speaksG2980.” 47The PhariseesG5330 thenG3767 answeredG611 them, “10You have not alsoG2532 been ledG4105 astrayG4105, have you? 4811NoG3361 oneG5100 of 12the rulersG758 orG2228 PhariseesG5330 has believedG4100 in Him, has he? 49But thisG3778 crowdG3793 which does not knowG1097 the LawG3551 is accursedG1884.” 5013NicodemusG3530 (he who cameG2064 to Him beforeG4387, beingG1510 oneG1520 of them) saidG3004 to them, 51“14Our LawG3551 does not judgeG2919 a manG444 unlessG1437G3361 it firstG4413 hearsG191 from him and knowsG1097 whatG5101 he is doingG4160, does it?” 52They answeredG611 him, “15You are not alsoG2532 from GalileeG1056, are you? SearchG2045, and seeG3708 that noG3756 prophetG4396 arisesG1453 out of GalileeG1056.”
