7John 7

1After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.Select John 7:1

2Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.Select John 7:2

3His brethren therefore said to him, Depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.Select John 7:3

4For [there is] no man [that] doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.Select John 7:4

5(For neither did his brethren believe in him.)Select John 7:5

6Then Jesus said to them, My time is not yet come: but your time is always ready.Select John 7:6

7The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify concerning it, that its works are evil.Select John 7:7

8Go ye up to this feast: I go not yet to this feast, for my time is not yet full come.Select John 7:8

9When he had said these words to them, he abode [still] in Galilee.Select John 7:9

10But when his brethren had gone up, then he went also to the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.Select John 7:10

11Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?Select John 7:11

12And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, No; but he deceiveth the people.Select John 7:12

13Yet, no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.Select John 7:13

14Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.Select John 7:14

15And the Jews marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?Select John 7:15

16Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.Select John 7:16

17If any man will do his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God, or [whether] I speak from myself.Select John 7:17

18He that speaketh from himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.Select John 7:18

19Did not Moses give you the law, and [yet] none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?Select John 7:19

20The people answered and said, Thou hast a demon: who goeth about to kill thee?Select John 7:20

21Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.Select John 7:21

22Moses therefore gave to you circumcision, (not because it is from Moses, but from the fathers) and ye on the sabbath circumcise a man.Select John 7:22

23If a man on the sabbath receiveth circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have restored a man to sound health on the sabbath?Select John 7:23

24Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.Select John 7:24

25Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?Select John 7:25

26But lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?Select John 7:26

27But we know this man, whence he is: whereas when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.Select John 7:27

28Then cried Jesus in the temple, as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.Select John 7:28

29But I know him; for I am from him, and he hath sent me.Select John 7:29

30Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.Select John 7:30

31And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this [man] hath done?Select John 7:31

32The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him: and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.Select John 7:32

33Then said Jesus to them, Yet a little while am I with you, and [then] I go to him that sent me.Select John 7:33

34Ye will seek me, and will not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot come.Select John 7:34

35Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go to the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?Select John 7:35

36What [manner of] saying is this that he said, Ye will seek me, and will not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot come?Select John 7:36

37In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirsteth, let him come to me, and drink.Select John 7:37

38He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.Select John 7:38

39(But this he spoke of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive, for the Holy Spirit was not yet [given], because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)Select John 7:39

40Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, In truth this is the Prophet.Select John 7:40

41Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Will Christ come out of Galilee?Select John 7:41

42Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh from the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?Select John 7:42

43So there was a division among the people because of him.Select John 7:43

44And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.Select John 7:44

45Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said to them, Why have ye not brought him?Select John 7:45

46The officers answered, Never man spoke like this man.Select John 7:46

47Then the Pharisees answered them, Are ye also deceived?Select John 7:47

48Have any of the rulers, or of the Pharisees believed on him?Select John 7:48

49But this people who know not the law are cursed.Select John 7:49

50Nicodemus saith to them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them)Select John 7:50

51Doth our law judge [any] man before it heareth him, and knoweth what he doeth?Select John 7:51

52They answered and said to him, Art thou also from Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.Select John 7:52

53And every man went to his own house.Select John 7:53
