John 7

Jesus Teaches at the Feast

1

Afterg3326 theseg3778 thingsg3778 Jesusg2424  awas walkingg4043 in Galileeg1056, for He was unwillingg3756g2309 to walkg4043 in Judeag2453 becauseg3754  bthe Jewsg2453  cwere seekingg2212 to killg615 Him.

2

Nowg1161 the feastg1859 of the Jewsg2453,  athe Feastg4634 of Boothsg4634, was nearg1451.

3

Thereforeg3767 His  abrothersg80 saidg3004 to Him, "Leaveg3327 hereg1782 and gog5217 into Judeag2453, sog3767 that Your  bdisciplesg3101 alsog2532 may seeg2334 Your worksg2041 whichg3739 You are doingg4160.

4

"For nog3762 oneg3762 doesg4160 anythingg5100 in secretg2927  1wheng2532 he himselfg846 seeksg2212 to be known publiclyg3954. Ifg1487 You dog4160 theseg3778 thingsg3778, showg5319 Yourselfg4572 to the worldg2889."

5

For not eveng3761 His  abrothersg80 were believingg4100 in Him.

6

Sog3767 Jesusg2424 *saidg3004 to them, aMy timeg2540 is not yetg3768 hereg3918a, but your timeg2540 is alwaysg3842 opportuneg2092.

7

aThe worldg2889 cannotg1410g3756 hateg3404 you, but it hatesg3404 Me becauseg3754 I testifyg3140 of it, that  bits deedsg2041 are evilg4190.

8

"Gog305 up to the feastg1859 yourselvesg4771; I do not gog305 up to thisg3778 feastg1859 becauseg3754  aMy timeg2540 has not yetg3768 fullyg4137 comeg4137."

9

Having saidg3004 theseg3778 thingsg3778 to them, He stayedg3306 in Galileeg1056.

10

But wheng5613 His  abrothersg80 had goneg305 up to the feastg1859, theng5119 He Himselfg846 alsog2532 wentg305 up, not publiclyg5320, but as ifg5613, in secretg2927.

11

 aSog3767 the Jewsg2453  bwere seekingg2212 Him at the feastg1859 and were sayingg3004, "Whereg4226 is He?"

12

There was muchg4183 grumblingg1112 amongg1722 the crowdsg3793 concerningg4012 Him;  asomeg3588g3303a were sayingg3004, "He is a goodg18 mang18"; othersg243 were sayingg3004, "Nog3756, on the contraryg235, He leadsg4105 the peopleg3793 astrayg4105."

13

Yetg3305 nog3762 oneg3762 was speakingg2980 openlyg3954 of Him for  afearg5401 of the Jewsg2453.

14

But when it was nowg2235 the midstg3322 of the feastg1859 Jesusg2424 wentg305 up into the templeg2413, and began to  ateachg1321.

15

 aThe Jewsg2453 theng3767 were astonishedg2296, sayingg3004, "Howg4459 has thisg3778 mang3778  bbecomeg3609a learnedg3609a, having neverg3361 been educatedg3129?"

16

Sog3767 Jesusg2424 answeredg611 them and saidg3004, aMy teachingg1322 is not Mineg1699, but His who sentg3992 Me.

17

aIfg1437 anyoneg5100 is willingg2309 to dog4160 His willg2307, he will knowg1097 of the teachingg1322, whetherg4220 it is of Godg2316 org2228 whether I speakg2980 from Myselfg1683.

18

"He who speaksg2980 from himselfg1438  aseeksg2212 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

aDid not Mosesg3475 giveg1325 you the Lawg3551, and yet noneg3762 of you carriesg4160 out the Lawg3551? Whyg5101 do you  bseekg2212 to killg615 Me?"

20

The crowdg3793 answeredg611, " aYou haveg2192 a demong1140! Whog5101 seeksg2212 to killg615 You?"

21

Jesusg2424 answeredg611 them, "I didg4160  aoneg1520  1deedg2041, and you allg3956 marvelg2296.

22

"For thisg3778 reasong1223  aMosesg3475 has giveng1325 you circumcisiong4061 (not becauseg3754 it is from Mosesg3475, but from  bthe fathersg3962), and on the Sabbathg4521 you circumciseg4059 a mang444.

23

aIfg1487 a mang444 receivesg2983 circumcisiong4061 on the Sabbathg4521 sog2443 that the Lawg3551 of Mosesg3475 will not be brokeng3089, are you angryg5520 with Me becauseg3754 I madeg4160 an entireg3650 mang444 wellg5199 on the Sabbathg4521?

24

"Do not  ajudgeg2919 accordingg2596 to appearanceg3799, but  1judgeg2919 with righteousg1342 judgmentg2920."

25

Sog3767 someg5100 of the peopleg2415 of Jerusalemg2415 were sayingg3004, "Is thisg3778 not the man whomg3739 they are seekingg2212 to killg615?

26

"Lookg2396, He is speakingg2980 publiclyg3954, and they are sayingg3004 nothingg3762 to Him.  aThe rulersg758 do not reallyg230 knowg1097 that thisg3778 is  1the Christg5547, do they?

27

"Howeverg235,  awe knowg3609a whereg4159 thisg3778 mang3778 is from; but wheneverg3752 the Christg5547 may comeg2064, nog3762 oneg3762 knowsg1097 whereg4159 He is from."

28

Theng3767 Jesusg2424 criedg2896 out in the templeg2413,  ateachingg1321 and sayingg3004, bYou bothg2532 knowg3609a Me and knowg3609a whereg4159 I amg1510 from; and  cI have not comeg2064 of Myselfg1683, but He who sentg3992 Me is trueg228, whomg3739 you do not knowg3609a.

29

aI knowg3609a Him, becauseg3754  bI amg1510 from Him, and  cHe sentg649 Me."

30

Sog3767 they  awere seekingg2212 to seizeg4084 Him; and nog3762 mang3762 laidg1911 his handg5495 on Him, becauseg3754 His  bhourg5610 had not yetg3768 comeg2064.

31

But  amanyg4183 of the crowdg3793 believedg4100 in Him; and they were sayingg3004, " bWheng3752  1the Christg5547 comesg2064, He will not performg2038b moreg4183  2 csignsg4592 than those whichg3739 thisg3778 mang3778 has, will He?"

32

The Phariseesg5330 heardg191 the crowdg3793 mutteringg1111 theseg3778 thingsg3778 aboutg4012 Him, and the chiefg749 priestsg749 and the Phariseesg5330 sentg649  aofficersg5257 to  bseizeg4084 Him.

33

Thereforeg3767 Jesusg2424 saidg3004, aFor a littleg3398 whileg5550 longerg2089 I amg1510 with you, theng2532  bI gog5217 to Him who sentg3992 Me.

34

aYou will seekg2212 Me, and will not findg2147 Me; and whereg3699 I amg1510, you cannotg1410g3756 comeg2064."

35

 aThe Jewsg2453 theng3767 saidg3004 to oneg1438 anotherg1438, " bWhereg4226 does thisg3778 mang3778 intendg3195 to gog4198 that we will not findg2147 Him? He is not intendingg3195 to gog4198 to  cthe Dispersiong1290 among  dthe Greeksg1672, and teachg1321 the Greeksg1672, is He?

36

"Whatg5101 is thisg3778 statementg3056 that He saidg3004, aYou will seekg2212 Me, and will not findg2147 Me; and whereg3699 I amg1510, you cannotg1410g3756 comeg2064'?"

37

Nowg1161 on  athe lastg2078 dayg2250, the greatg3173 day of the feastg1859, Jesusg2424 stoodg2476 and criedg2896 out, sayingg3004, 1 bIfg1437 anyoneg5100 is thirstyg1372,  2let him comeg2064 to Me and drinkg4095.

38

"He who believesg4100 in Me,  aas the Scriptureg1124 saidg3004, `From  1his innermostg2836 beingg2836 will flowg4482 riversg4215 of  blivingg2198 waterg5204.' "

39

But thisg3778 He spokeg3004  aof the Spiritg4151, whomg3739 thoseg3588 who believedg4100 in Him were to receiveg2983; for  bthe Spiritg4151 was not yetg3768 given, becauseg3754 Jesusg2424 was not yetg3764  cglorifiedg1392.

Division of People over Jesus

40

Some of the peopleg3793 thereforeg3767, when they heardg191 theseg3778 wordsg3056, were sayingg3004, "Thisg3778 certainlyg230 is  athe Prophetg4396."

41

Othersg243 were sayingg3004, "Thisg3778 is  1the Christg5547." Still othersg3588 were sayingg3004, " aSurelyg3361  1the Christg5547 is not going to comeg2064 from Galileeg1056, is He?

42

"Has not the Scriptureg1124 saidg3004 that the Christg5547 comesg2064 from  athe descendantsg4690 of Davidg1160b, and from Bethlehemg965, the villageg2968 whereg3699 Davidg1160b was?"

43

Sog3767  aa divisiong4978 occurredg1096 in the crowdg3793 becauseg1223 of Him.

44

 aSomeg5100 of them wantedg2309 to seizeg4084 Him, but nog3762 oneg3762 laidg1911 handsg5495 on Him.

45

The  aofficersg5257 theng3767 cameg2064 to the chiefg749 priestsg749 and Phariseesg5330, and they saidg3004 to them, "Whyg1223g5101 did you not bringg71 Him?"

46

The  aofficersg5257 answeredg611, " bNeverg3763 has a mang444 spokeng2980 the wayg3779 thisg3779 mang444 speaksg2980."

47

The Phariseesg5330 theng3767 answeredg611 them, " aYou have not alsog2532 been ledg4105 astrayg4105, have you?

48

aNog3361 oneg5100 of  bthe rulersg758 org2228 Phariseesg5330 has believedg4100 in Him, has he?

49

"But thisg3778 crowdg3793 which does not knowg1097 the Lawg3551 is accursedg1884a."

50

 aNicodemusg3530 (he who cameg2064 to Him beforeg4387, beingg1510 oneg1520 of them) *saidg3004 to them,

51

aOur Lawg3551 does not judgeg2919 a mang444 unlessg1437g3361 it firstg4413 hearsg191 from him and knowsg1097 whatg5101 he is doingg4160, does it?"

52

They answeredg611 him, " aYou are not alsog2532 from Galileeg1056, are you? Searchg2045, and seeg3708 that nog3756 prophetg4396 arisesg1453 out of Galileeg1056."

53

1Everyoneg1538 wentg4198 to his homeg3624.
