¹ After these things Jesus walked into Galilee, for he would not walk into Judea, for the Jews sought to slay him.

² And there was nigh a feast day of the Jews, Scenopegia, [that is, a feast of tabernacles].

³ And his brethren said to him, Pass from hence, and go into Judea, that also thy disciples see thy works that thou doest;

⁴ for no man doeth anything in huddles, and himself seeketh to be open, [+or forsooth no man doeth anything in hid place, or privy, and he seeketh to be in open]. If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.

⁵ For neither his brethren believed in him.

⁶ Therefore Jesus saith to them, My time came not yet, but your time is evermore ready.

⁷ The world may not hate you, soothly it hateth me; for I bear witnessing thereof, that the works of it be evil.

⁸ Go ye up to this feast day, but I shall not go up to this feast day, for my time is not yet fulfilled [or full-filled].

⁹ When he had said these things, he dwelt in Galilee.

¹⁰ And after that his brethren were gone up, then he went up to the feast day, not openly, but as in private.

¹¹ Therefore the Jews sought him in the feast day, and said, Where is he?

¹² And much grutching was of him among the people. For some said, That he is good; and others said, Nay, but he deceiveth the people;

¹³ nevertheless no man spake openly of him, for dread of the Jews.

¹⁴ But when the middle feast day came, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

¹⁵ And the Jews wondered, and said, How knoweth this man letters, since he hath not learned?

¹⁶ Jesus answered to them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

¹⁷ If any man will do his will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it be of God, or I speak of myself.

¹⁸ He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory; but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, is soothfast, and unrightwiseness is not in him.

¹⁹ Whether Moses gave not to you a law, and none of you doeth [or keep-eth] the law? What seek ye to slay me?

²⁰ And the people answered, and said, Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to slay thee?

²¹ Jesus answered, and said to them, I have done one work, and all ye wonder.

²² Therefore Moses gave to you circumcision; not for it is of Moses, but of the fathers; and in the sabbath ye circumcise a man.

²³ If a man take circumcision in the sabbath, that the law of Moses be not broken, have ye indignation, [or wrath], to me, for I made all a man whole in the sabbath?

²⁴ Do not ye deem after the face, but deem ye a rightful doom.

²⁵ Therefore some of Jerusalem said, Whether this is not he, whom the Jews seek to slay?

²⁶ and lo! he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Whether the princes know verily that this is Christ?

²⁷ But we know this man, of whence he is; but when Christ shall come, no man knoweth of whence he is.

²⁸ Therefore Jesus cried in the temple teaching, and said, Ye know me, and ye know of whence I am; and I came not of myself, but he is true that sent me, whom ye know not.

²⁹ I know him, and if I say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar; but I know him, for of him I am, and he sent me.

³⁰ Therefore they sought to take him, and no man set on him hands, for his hour came not yet.

³¹ And many of the people believed in him, and said, When Christ shall come, whether he shall do more tokens than those that this doeth?

³² The Pharisees heard the people musing of him, these things; and the princes and the Pharisees sent min-isters, to take him.

³³ Therefore Jesus said to them, Yet a little time I am with you, and I go to the Father, that sent me.

³⁴ Ye shall seek me, and ye shall not find me; and where I am, ye may not come.

³⁵ Therefore the Jews said to them-selves, Whither shall this go, for we shall not find him? whether he will go into the scattering of heathen men, and will teach the heathen?

³⁶ What is this word, which he said, Ye shall seek me, and ye shall not find me; and where I am, ye may not come?

³⁷ But in the last day of the great feast, Jesus stood, and cried, and said, If any man thirsteth, come he to me, and drink.

³⁸ He that believeth in me, as the scripture saith, Floods of quick water shall flow out of his womb.

³⁹ But he said this thing of the Spirit [or of the Holy Ghost], whom men that believed in him should take; for the Spirit was not yet given, for Jesus was not yet glorified.

⁴⁰ Therefore of that company, when they had heard these words of him, they said, This is verily a prophet.

⁴¹ Others said, This is Christ. But some said, Whether Christ cometh from Galilee?

⁴² Whether the scripture saith not, that of the seed of David, and of the castle of Bethlehem, where David was, Christ cometh?

⁴³ Therefore dissension was made among the people for him.

⁴⁴ And some of them would have taken him, but no man set hands on him.

⁴⁵ Therefore the ministers came to the bishops, and Pharisees, and they said to them, Why brought ye not him?

⁴⁶ The ministers answered, Never man spake so, as this man speaketh.

⁴⁷ Therefore the Pharisees answered to them, Whether ye be deceived also?

⁴⁸ whether any of the princes, or of the Pharisees believed in him?

⁴⁹ But this people, that knoweth not the law, be cursed.

⁵⁰ Nicodemus saith to them, he that came to him by night, that was one of them,

⁵¹ Whether our law deemeth a man, but it have first heard of him [or no but first it have heard of him], and know what he doeth?

⁵² They answered, and said to him, Whether thou art a man of Galilee also? Seek thou scriptures, and see thou, that a prophet riseth not of Galilee.

⁵³ And they turned again, each into his house.
