John 5:27-47

27and He gaveG1325 Him authorityG1849 to 1executeG4160 judgmentG2920, becauseG3754 He is 2the SonG5207 of ManG444. 28Do not beG2296 amazedG2296 at thisG3778; for 34a timeG5610 is comingG2064 whenG1722G3739 5allG3956 whoG3588 are in the tombsG3419 will hearG191 His voiceG5456, 29and will comeG1607 outG1607: 6thoseG3588 who didG4160 the goodG18 deeds to a resurrectionG386 of lifeG2222, thoseG3588 who committedG4238 the badG5337 deeds to a resurrectionG386 of judgmentG2920.

30“7I canG1410 doG4160 nothingG3756G3762 8on My ownG1683. As I hearG191, I judgeG2919; and 9My judgmentG2920 is 10righteousG1342, becauseG3754 I do not seekG2212 My ownG1699 willG2307 but 11the willG2307 of Him who sentG3992 Me.

31“12IfG1437 I alone testifyG3140 aboutG4012 MyselfG1683, My testimonyG3141 is not 13trueG227. 32There is 14anotherG243 who testifiesG3140 aboutG4012 Me, and I knowG3609 that the testimonyG3141 whichG3739 He givesG3140 aboutG4012 Me is trueG227. 33You have sentG649 messengers to JohnG2491, and he 15has testifiedG3140 to the truthG225. 34But 16the testimonyG3141 I receiveG2983 is not from manG444, but I sayG3004 theseG3778 thingsG3778 soG2443 thatG2443 you may be savedG4982. 35He was 17the lampG3088 that was burningG2545 and shiningG5316, and you 18were willingG2309 to rejoiceG21 for 19a whileG5610 in his lightG5457. 36But the testimonyG3141 I haveG2192 is greaterG3173 than the testimony of JohnG2491; for 20the worksG2041 whichG3739 the FatherG3962 has givenG1325 Me 21to accomplishG5048--the veryG846 worksG2041 that I doG4160--testifyG3140 aboutG4012 Me, that the FatherG3962 22has sentG649 Me. 37And the FatherG3962 who sentG3992 Me, 23He has testifiedG3140 aboutG4012 Me. You have neitherG3777 heardG191 His voiceG5456 at anyG4455 timeG4455, norG3777 seenG3708 His formG1491. 38AlsoG2532 you do not haveG2192 24His wordG3056 remainingG3306 in you, becauseG3754 you do not believeG4100 Him whomG3739 He 25sentG649. 392627You examineG2038 the ScripturesG1124 becauseG3754 you thinkG1380 that in them you haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222; and it is 28thoseG1565 very Scriptures that testifyG3140 aboutG4012 Me; 40and yet you are unwillingG3756G2309 to comeG2064 to Me soG2443 thatG2443 you may haveG2192 lifeG2222. 4129I do not receiveG2983 gloryG1391 from peopleG444; 42but I knowG1097 you, that you do not haveG2192 the loveG26 of GodG2316 in yourselvesG1438. 43I have comeG2064 in My Father’sG3962 nameG3686, and you do not 30receiveG2983 Me; 31ifG1437 anotherG243 comesG2064 in his ownG2398 nameG3686, you will 32receiveG2983 him. 44HowG4459 canG1410 you believeG4100, when you 3334acceptG2983 35gloryG1391 from oneG240 anotherG240 and you do not seekG2212 36the 37gloryG1391 that is from 38the one and onlyG3441 GodG2316? 45Do not thinkG1380 that I will accuseG2723 you beforeG4314 the FatherG3962; the one who accusesG2723 you is 39MosesG3475, in whomG3739 you have putG1679 your hopeG1679. 46For ifG1487 you believedG4100 MosesG3475, you would believeG4100 Me; for 40he wroteG1125 aboutG4012 Me. 47But 41ifG1487 you do not believeG4100 his writingsG1121, howG4459 will you believeG4100 My wordsG4487?”
