John 11:45-57

451ThereforeG3767 manyG4183 of the JewsG2453 2who cameG2064 to MaryG3137, and 3sawG2300 whatG3739 He had doneG4160, believedG4100 in Him. 46But someG5100 of them wentG565 to the 4PhariseesG5330 and toldG3004 them the things whichG3739 JesusG2424 had doneG4160.

47ThereforeG3767 5the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the PhariseesG5330 6convenedG4863 a 7councilG4892 meetingG4892, and they were sayingG3004, “WhatG5101 are we 8doingG4160 inG3754 regardG3754 toG3754 theG3754 factG3754 thatG3754 thisG3778 ManG444 is performingG4160 manyG4183 910signsG4592? 48IfG1437 we letG863 Him go on likeG3779 thisG3779, allG3956 the people will believeG4100 in Him, and the RomansG4514 will comeG2064 and takeG142 overG142 bothG2532 our 1112placeG5117 and our nationG1484.” 49But oneG1520 of them, 13CaiaphasG2533, 14who was highG749 priestG749 that yearG1763, saidG3004 to them, “You knowG3609 nothingG3762 atG3762 allG3762, 50norG3761 are you takingG3049 intoG3049 accountG3049 that 15it isG4851 inG4851 your bestG4851 interestG4851 that oneG1520 manG444 dieG599 for the peopleG2992, and that the wholeG3650 nationG1484 not perishG622 instead.” 51NowG1161 he did not sayG3004 thisG3778 16on his ownG1438, but 17as he was highG749 priestG749 that yearG1763, he prophesiedG4395 that JesusG2424 wasG3195 goingG3195 toG3195 dieG599 for the nationG1484; 52and not for the nationG1484 onlyG3440, but inG2443 orderG2443 thatG2443 He might alsoG2532 18gatherG4863 togetherG4863 into oneG1520 the childrenG5043 of GodG2316 who are scatteredG1287 abroadG1287. 53SoG3767 from that dayG2250 on they 19plannedG1011 togetherG1011 to killG615 Him.

54ThereforeG3767 JesusG2424 20noG3765 longerG3765 continued to walkG4043 publiclyG3954 amongG1722 the JewsG2453, but wentG565 awayG565 fromG1564 thereG1564 to the regionG5561 nearG1451 the wildernessG2048, into a cityG4172 calledG3004 21EphraimG2187; and thereG2546 He stayedG3306 with the disciplesG3101.

55NowG1161 22the PassoverG3957 of the JewsG2453 was nearG1451, and manyG4183 wentG305 upG305 to JerusalemG2414 from the countryG5561 priorG4253 to the PassoverG3957, 23inG2443 orderG2443 toG2443 24purifyG48 themselvesG1438. 56SoG3767 they 25were lookingG2212 forG2212 JesusG2424, and sayingG3004 to oneG240 anotherG240 as they stoodG2476 in the templeG2413 area, “WhatG5101 do you thinkG1380; that He will not comeG2064 to the feastG1859 atG3756G3361 allG3756G3361?” 57NowG1161 26the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the PhariseesG5330 had givenG1325 ordersG1785 that ifG1437 anyoneG5100 knewG1097 whereG4226 He was, he was to reportG3377 it, soG3704 thatG3704 they might arrestG4084 Him.
