| The Book of John 7 | ||||||||||||||||
| The World English Online Bible (WLD) | ||||||||||||||||
| John 7:1 | After these things, Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:2 | Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:3 | His brothers therefore said to him, "Depart from here, and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:4 | For no man does anything in secret, and himself seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:5 | For even his brothers didn't believe in him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:6 | Jesus therefore said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:7 | The world can't hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:8 | You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:9 | Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:10 | But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:11 | The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, "Where is he?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:12 | There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, "He is a good man." Others said, "Not so, but he leads the multitude astray." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:13 | Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:14 | But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:15 | The Jews therefore marveled, saying, "How does this man know letters, having never been educated?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:16 | Jesus therefore answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:17 | If anyone desires to do his will, he will know of the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I speak from myself. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:18 | He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:19 | Didn't Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:20 | The multitude answered, "You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:21 | Jesus answered them, "I did one work, and you all marvel because of it. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:22 | Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:23 | If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I made a man every bit whole on the Sabbath? | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:24 | Don't judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:25 | Some therefore of them of Jerusalem said, "Isn't this he whom they seek to kill? | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:26 | Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ? | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:27 | However we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:28 | Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, "You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don't know. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:29 | I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:30 | They sought therefore to take him. No one laid a hand on him, because his hour was not yet come. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:31 | But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, "When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than those which this man has done?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:32 | The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:33 | Then Jesus said, "Yet a little while, am I with you, then I go to him who sent me. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:34 | You will seek me, and won't find me; and where I am, you can't come." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:35 | The Jews therefore said among themselves, "Where will this man go that we won't find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks? | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:36 | What is this word that he said, 'You will seek me, and won't find me; and where I am, you can't come?'" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:37 | Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink! | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:38 | He who believes in me, as the scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:39 | But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:40 | Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, "This is truly the prophet." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:41 | Others said, "This is the Christ." But some said, "What, does the Christ come out of Galilee? | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:42 | Hasn't the scripture said that the Christ comes of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:43 | So there arose a division in the multitude because of him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:44 | Some of them would have taken him, but no one laid hands on him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:45 | The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, "Why didn't you bring him?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:46 | The officers answered, "No man ever spoke like this man!" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:47 | The Pharisees therefore answered them, "Are you also led astray? | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:48 | Has any of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees? | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:49 | But this cursed multitude doesn't know the law." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:50 | Nicodemus (he who came to him by night, being one of them) said to them, | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:51 | "Does our law judge a man, unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:52 | They answered him, "Are you also from Galilee? Search, and see that no prophet has arisen out of Galilee." | |||||||||||||||
| John 7:53 | Everyone went to his own house, | |||||||||||||||
