John 7

1AfterG3326 these thingsG3778 JesusG3588G2424 walkedG4043 inG1722 GalileeG3588G1056: forG1063 he wouldG2309 notG3756 walkG4043 inG1722 JewryG3588G2449, becauseG3754 the JewsG2453 soughtG2212 to killG615 himG846. 2NowG1161 the Jews’G2453 feastG3588G1859 of tabernaclesG3588G4634 wasG1510 at handG1451. 3HisG846 brethrenG3588G80 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, DepartG3327 henceG1782, andG2532 goG5217 intoG1519 JudæaG3588G2449, thatG2443 thyG4771 disciplesG3588G3101 alsoG2532 may seeG2334 the worksG3588G2041 thatG3739 thouG4771 doestG4160. 4ForG1063 there is no manG3762 that doethG4160 any thingG5100 inG1722 secretG2927, andG2532 heG2212 himselfG846 seekethG2212 to be knownG1510 openlyG3954. IfG1487 thou doG4160 these thingsG3778, shewG5319 thyselfG4572 to the worldG3588G2889. 5ForG1063 neitherG3761 didG4100 hisG846 brethrenG3588G80 believeG4100 inG1519 himG846. 6ThenG3767 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, MyG1699 timeG3588G2540 isG3918 not yetG3768 comeG3918: butG1161 yourG5212 timeG2540 isG1510 alwayG3842 readyG2092. 7The worldG3588G2889 cannotG3756 hateG3404 youG4771; butG1161 meG1473 it hatethG3404, becauseG3754 IG1473 testifyG3140 ofG4012 itG846, thatG3754 the worksG3588G2041 thereofG846 areG1510 evilG4190. 8GoG305 yeG4771 upG305 untoG1519 thisG3778 feastG3588G1859: IG1473 goG305 notG3768 upG305 yetG3768 untoG1519 thisG3778 feastG3588G1859; forG3754 myG1699 timeG3588G2540 isG4137 not yetG3768 full comeG4137. 9WhenG1161 he had saidG3004 these wordsG3778 unto themG846, he abodeG3306 still inG1722 GalileeG3588G1056.

10ButG1161 whenG5613 hisG846 brethrenG3588G80 were gone upG305, thenG5119 wentG305 heG846 alsoG2532 upG305 untoG1519 the feastG3588G1859, notG3756 openlyG5320, butG235 as it wereG5613 inG1722 secretG2927. 11ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 soughtG2212 himG846 atG1722 the feastG3588G1859, andG2532 saidG3004, WhereG4226 isG1510 heG1565? 12AndG2532 there wasG1510 muchG4183 murmuringG1112 amongG1722 the peopleG3588G3793 concerningG4012 himG846: for someG3588 saidG3004, He isG1510 a good manG18: othersG243 saidG3004, NayG3756; butG235 he deceivethG4105 the peopleG3588G3793. 13HowbeitG3305 no manG3762 spakeG2980 openlyG3954 ofG4012 himG846 forG1223 fearG3588G5401 of the JewsG2453.

14NowG2235 about the midstG3322 of the feastG3588G1859 JesusG3588G2424 went upG305 intoG1519 the templeG3588G2411, andG2532 taughtG1321. 15AndG2532 the JewsG2453 marvelledG2296, sayingG3004, HowG4459 knowethG1492 this manG3778 lettersG1121, havingG3129 neverG3361 learnedG3129? 16JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 themG846, andG2532 saidG3004, MyG1699 doctrineG1322 isG1510 notG3756 mineG1699, butG235 his that sentG3992 meG1473. 17IfG1437 any manG5100 willG2309 doG4160 hisG846 willG3588G2307, he shall knowG1097 ofG4012 the doctrineG3588G1322, whetherG4220 it beG1510 ofG1537 GodG3588G2316, orG2228 whether IG1473 speakG2980 ofG575 myselfG1683. 18He that speakethG3588G2980 ofG575 himselfG1438 seekethG2212 his ownG3588G2398 gloryG3588G1391: butG1161 he that seekethG3588G2212 hisG3588G3992 gloryG3588G1391 that sentG3588G3992 himG846, the sameG3778 isG1510 trueG227, andG2532 noG3756 unrighteousnessG93 isG1510 inG1722 himG846. 19DidG1325 notG3756 MosesG3475 giveG1325 youG4771 the lawG3588G3551, andG2532 yet noneG3762 ofG1537 youG4771 keepethG4160 the lawG3588G3551? WhyG5101 go ye aboutG2212 to killG615 meG1473? 20The peopleG3588G3793 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, Thou hastG2192 a devilG1140: whoG5101 goeth aboutG2212 to killG615 theeG4771? 21JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, I have doneG4160 oneG1520 workG2041, andG2532 yeG2296 allG3956 marvelG2296. 22MosesG3475 thereforeG1223 gaveG1325 unto youG4771 circumcisionG3588G4061; (notG3756 becauseG3754 it isG1510 ofG1537 MosesG3588G3475, butG235 ofG1537 the fathersG3588G3962;) andG2532 yeG4059 onG1722 the sabbath dayG4521 circumciseG4059 a manG444. 23IfG1487 a manG444 onG1722 the sabbath dayG4521 receiveG2983 circumcisionG4061, thatG2443 the lawG3588G3551 of MosesG3475 shouldG3089 notG3361 be brokenG3089; are ye angryG5520 at meG1473, becauseG3754 I have madeG4160 a manG444 every whitG3650 wholeG5199 onG1722 the sabbath dayG4521? 24JudgeG2919 notG3361 according toG2596 the appearanceG3799, butG235 judgeG2919 righteousG1342 judgmentG2920. 25ThenG3767 saidG3004 someG5100 ofG1537 them of JerusalemG3588G2415, IsG1510 notG3756 thisG3778 heG1510, whomG3739 they seekG2212 to killG615? 26ButG2532, loG3708, he speakethG2980 boldlyG3954, andG2532 they sayG3004 nothingG3762 unto himG846. DoG1097 the rulersG3588G758 knowG1097 indeedG230 thatG3754 thisG3778 isG1510 the veryG230 ChristG3588G5547? 27HowbeitG235 we knowG1492 this manG3778 whenceG4159 he isG1510: butG1161 whenG3752 ChristG5547 comethG2064, no manG3762 knowethG1097 whenceG4159 he isG1510. 28ThenG3767 criedG2896 JesusG3588G2424 inG1722 the templeG3588G2411 as he taughtG1321, sayingG3004, YeG1492 bothG2504 knowG1492 meG2504, andG2532 ye knowG1492 whenceG4159 I amG1510: andG2532 I amG2064 notG3756 comeG2064 ofG575 myselfG1683, butG235 he that sentG3992 meG1473 isG1510 trueG228, whomG3739 yeG4771 knowG1492 notG3756. 29ButG1161 IG1473 knowG1492 himG846: forG3754 I amG1510 fromG3844 himG846, and heG2548 hath sentG649 meG1473. 30ThenG3767 they soughtG2212 to takeG4084 himG846: butG2532 no manG3762 laidG1911 handsG3588G5495 onG1909 himG846, becauseG3754 hisG846 hourG3588G5610 wasG2064 not yetG3768 comeG2064. 31AndG1161 manyG4183 ofG1537 the peopleG3588G3793 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004, WhenG3752 ChristG3588G5547 comethG2064, will he doG4160 moreG4119 miraclesG4592 than theseG3778 whichG3739 thisG3778 man hath doneG4160?

32The PhariseesG3588G5330 heardG191 thatG1111 the peopleG3588G3793 murmuredG1111 such thingsG3778 concerningG4012 himG846; andG2532 the PhariseesG3588G5330 andG2532 the chief priestsG3588G749 sentG649 officersG5257 toG2443 takeG4084 himG846. 33ThenG3767 saidG3004 JesusG3588G2424 unto themG846, YetG2089 a littleG3398 whileG5550 am IG1510 withG3326 youG4771, andG2532 then I goG5217 untoG4314 him that sentG3992 meG1473. 34Ye shall seekG2212 meG1473, andG2532 shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 me: andG2532 whereG3699 IG1473 amG1510, thither yeG4771 cannotG3756 comeG2064. 35ThenG3767 saidG3004 the JewsG2453 amongG4314 themselvesG1438, WhitherG4226 willG3195 heG3778 goG4198, thatG3754 weG1473 shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 himG846? will heG3195 goG4198 untoG1519 the dispersedG3588G1290 among the GentilesG3588G1672, andG2532 teachG1321 the GentilesG3588G1672? 36WhatG5101 manner of sayingG3588G3056 isG1510 thisG3778 thatG3739 he saidG3004, Ye shall seekG2212 meG1473, andG2532 shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 me: andG2532 whereG3699 IG1473 amG1510, thither yeG4771 cannotG3756 comeG2064? 37InG1722 the lastG2078 dayG2250, thatG3588 greatG3173 day of the feastG3588G1859, JesusG3588G2424 stoodG2476 andG2532 criedG2896, sayingG3004, IfG1437 any manG5100 thirstG1372, let him comeG2064 untoG4314 meG1473, andG2532 drinkG4095. 38He that believethG4100 onG1519 meG1473, asG2531 the scriptureG3588G1124 hath saidG3004, out ofG1537 hisG846 bellyG3588G2836 shall flowG4482 riversG4215 ofG5204 livingG2198 waterG5204. 39(ButG1161 thisG3778 spake heG3004 ofG4012 the SpiritG3588G4151, whichG3739 they that believeG4100 onG1519 himG846 shouldG3195 receiveG2983: forG1063 theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151 wasG1510 not yetG3768 given; because thatG3754 JesusG3588G2424 wasG1392 not yetG3764 glorifiedG1392.)

40ManyG4183 ofG1537 the peopleG3588G3793 thereforeG3767, when they heardG191 this sayingG3588G3056, saidG3004, Of a truthG230 thisG3778 isG1510 the ProphetG3588G4396. 41OthersG243 saidG3004, ThisG3778 isG1510 the ChristG3588G5547. ButG1161 someG243 saidG3004, ShallG3361 ChristG3588G5547 comeG2064 out ofG1537 GalileeG3588G1056? 42HathG3004 notG3780 the scriptureG3588G1124 saidG3004, ThatG3754 ChristG3588G5547 comethG2064 ofG1537 the seedG3588G4690 of DavidG1138, andG2532 outG575 of the townG3588G2968 of BethlehemG965, whereG3699 DavidG1138 wasG1510? 43SoG3767 there wasG1096 a divisionG4978 amongG1722 the peopleG3588G3793 becauseG1223 of himG846. 44AndG1161 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 would haveG2309 takenG4084 himG846; butG235 no manG3762 laidG1911 handsG3588G5495 onG1909 himG846.

45ThenG3767 cameG2064 the officersG3588G5257 toG4314 the chief priestsG3588G749 andG2532 PhariseesG5330; andG2532 theyG1565 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhyG1223 have yeG71 notG3756 broughtG71 himG846? 46The officersG3588G5257 answeredG611, NeverG3763 manG444 spakeG2980 likeG5613 thisG3778 manG3588G444. 47ThenG3767 answeredG611 themG846 the PhariseesG3588G5330, AreG4105 yeG4771 alsoG3361 deceivedG4105? 48HaveG4100 anyG5100 ofG1537 the rulersG3588G758 orG2228 ofG1537 the PhariseesG3588G5330 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846? 49ButG235 thisG3778 peopleG3588G3793 who knowethG1097 notG3361 the lawG3588G3551 areG1510 cursedG1944. 50NicodemusG3530 saithG3004 untoG4314 themG846, (he that cameG2064 toG4314 JesusG846 by nightG3571, beingG1510 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846,) 51DothG2919 ourG1473 lawG3588G3551 judgeG2919 any manG3588G444, beforeG1437G3361G4386 it hearG191 himG846, andG2532 knowG1097 whatG5101 he doethG4160? 52They answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, ArtG1510 thouG4771 alsoG2532 ofG1537 GalileeG3588G1056? SearchG2045, andG2532 lookG3708: forG3754 out ofG1537 GalileeG3588G1056 arisethG1453 noG3756 prophetG4396. 53AndG2532 every manG1538 wentG4198 untoG1519 his ownG846 houseG3588G3624.
