John 7:7-20
71The worldG2889 cannotG1410G3756 hateG3404 you, but it hatesG3404 Me becauseG3754 I testifyG3140 aboutG4012 it, that 2its deedsG2041 are evilG4190. 8GoG305 upG305 to the feastG1859 yourselvesG4771; I am not goingG305 upG305 to thisG3778 feastG1859, becauseG3754 3My timeG2540 has not yetG3768 fullyG4137 arrivedG4137.” 9NowG1161 having saidG3004 theseG3778 thingsG3778 to them, He stayedG3306 in GalileeG1056.
10But whenG5613 His 4brothersG80 had goneG305 upG305 to the feastG1859, thenG5119 He HimselfG846 alsoG2532 wentG305 upG305, not publiclyG5320, but as though in secretG2927. 115SoG3767 the JewsG2453 6were lookingG2212 forG2212 Him at the feastG1859 and sayingG3004, “WhereG4226 is He?” 12And there was a greatG4183 dealG4183 of talkG1112 aboutG4012 Him inG1112 secretG1112 amongG1722 the crowdsG3793: 7someG3588G3303 were sayingG3004, “He is a goodG18 manG18”; othersG243 were sayingG3004, “NoG3756, on the contraryG235, He is misleadingG4105 the peopleG3793.” 13HoweverG3305, noG3762 oneG3762 was speakingG2980 openlyG3954 aboutG4012 Him, for 8fearG5401 of 9the JewsG2453.
14But when it was nowG2235 the middleG3322 of the feastG1859, JesusG2424 wentG305 upG305 into the templeG2413 area, and began to 10teachG1321. 1511The JewsG2453 thenG3767 wereG2296 astonishedG2296, sayingG3004, “HowG4459 has thisG3778 ManG3778 12becomeG3609 learnedG3609G1121, not having been educatedG3129?” 16SoG3767 JesusG2424 answeredG611 them and saidG3004, “13My teachingG1322 is not My ownG1699, but His who sentG3992 Me. 1714IfG1437 anyoneG5100 is willingG2309 to doG4160 His willG2307, he will knowG1097 aboutG4012 the teachingG1322, whetherG4220 it is of GodG2316, orG2228 I am speakingG2980 from MyselfG1683. 18The one who speaksG2980 from himselfG1438 15seeksG2212 his ownG2398 gloryG1391; but He who is seekingG2212 the gloryG1391 of the One who sentG3992 Him, He is trueG227, and there is noG3756 unrighteousnessG93 in Him.
19“16Did MosesG3475 not giveG1325 you the LawG3551, and yet noneG3762 of you carriesG4160 outG4160 the LawG3551? WhyG5101 are you 17seekingG2212 to killG615 Me?” 20The crowdG3793 answeredG611, “18You haveG2192 a demonG1140! WhoG5101 is seekingG2212 to killG615 You?”
