being nigh, the chief priests consulted with the Scribes, how they might put Jesus to death; for they were afraid of the people.

Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

The day of unleaven'd bread being come, when the paschal-lamb was to be sacrific'd,

The hour of eating being come, he, and the twelve apostles sat down to table.

And having taken bread, having given thanks, he brake and gave to them, saying, 'This is my body, that for you is being given, this do ye -- to remembrance of me.'

In like manner, also, the cup after the supping, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in my blood, that for you is being poured forth.

and indeed the Son of Man doth go according to what hath been determined; but woe to that man through whom he is being delivered up.'

And a dispute also occurred among them as to which of them was recognized as being greatest.

For I tell you that this that is written must be fulfilled in me: 'And he was counted with the criminals.' For indeed, [what is written] about me {is being fulfilled}."

He being at the place, He said to them, Pray that you enter not into temptation.

And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

I being daily with you in the temple, you reached not out your hands unto me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

As soon as it was day, the rulers of the people, the chief priests and the Scribes being assembled, they order'd him to be brought before their council,

They proceeded to accuse him, saying, "We have discovered this fellow perverting our nation, forbidding tribute being paid to Caesar, and alleging he is king messiah."

and having known that he is from the jurisdiction of Herod, he sent him back unto Herod, he being also in Jerusalem in those days.

And also Pilate and Herod were friends in that day with one another: for they were before being in enmity with each other.

Pilate said to them, "You brought me this man as being an inciter to rebellion among the people. I have examined him before you and found nothing criminal about him, for all your accusations against him.

Pilate therefore spake to them again, being desirous to release Jesus.

and Pilate gave judgment for their request being done,

There was a great crowd of people following him, many being women who were beating their breasts and wailing for him.

And there were being led, two other evil-doers also, to be lifted up.

The sun being eclipsed; and the Temple curtain was torn down the middle.

And all the multitudes being present at that scene, seeing those things which took place, were going away beating their breasts.

And lo, a man, by name Joseph, being a counsellor, a man good and righteous,

(who had not given his assent to their determination and deed;) being of Arimathea, a city of the Jews: who himself also expected the coming of the kingdom of God.

And as they were being perplexed about this, two men in dazzling robes suddenly took their stand beside them.

and they being afraid, and turning their face towards the ground, they said to them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spoke to you, being yet in Galilee,

And behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, it being about sixty stadia from Jerusalem.

and of his being deliver'd up by our chief priests and magistrates to be condemn'd to die, whom they actually crucified:

But certain women from us truly surprised us, being early at the sepulcher;

But they, being confounded and being frightened, supposed they beheld a spirit.

But they not yet believing for joy, and being amazed, He said to them, Have ye here any thing to eat?

and he said to them, 'These are the words that I spake unto you, being yet with you, that it behoveth to be fulfilled all the things that are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, about me.'

All things received being through him, and without him not one thing received being which has received being.

That which came into being in him was Life; and the Life was the Light of Man;

A man came into being, sent from God, whose name was John.

He was not the Light; it was to bear testimony concerning the Light that he came into being.

He was in the world, and the world had its being through him, and the world knew him not.

On those who have accepted him, however, he has conferred the right of being children of God, that is, on those who believe in his Name,

[Eventually] this Word became a human being and lived among us [Note: The word "lived" here refers to pitching a temporary tent]. (And we saw His splendor; such splendor as belongs to the Father's only Son), full of God's favor and truth.

No one has ever seen God; the only begotten Son, the one being in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared him.

Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?

Then He said to them, "Come, and you will see." So, they went and saw where He was staying and they stayed with Him that day. It was about ten o'clock in the morning. [Note: Hour designations in this book are being calculated by Roman time, but this would have been

He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

Nathanael saith to him, 'Whence me dost thou know?' Jesus answered and said to him, 'Before Philip's calling thee -- thou being under the fig-tree -- I saw thee.'

And wine being deficient, the mother of Jesus says to him, They have no wine.

for the Jews passover being nigh, Jesus went up to Jerusalem,

Then the Jews said, Forty and six years was this temple being built, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

Nicodemus says to him, How can a man be born being old? can he enter a second time into the womb of his mother and be born?

Whoever is born from human parents is a human being; and whoever is born from the Holy Spirit is a spiritual being.

And none has ascended to heaven, except he having descended from heaven, the Son of man, he being in heaven.

For anyone who is in the habit of doing wrong hates the light, and to keep his actions from being reproved, he does not come out into the daylight.

But he who practices the truth, cometh to the light, that his actions may be evident, as being done for God.

and John was also baptizing in Aenon, nigh to Salem, because there were many waters there, and they were coming and were being baptized --

The One who comes from above [i.e., Jesus] ranks over all [others]; but the one who is out of the earth [i.e., of human origin] is [merely] an earthly [being] and he speaks in earthly [ways]. [But] the One who comes from heaven [i.e., Jesus] ranks over all [others].

the one being of the earth is of the earth, and speaks of the earth. The one coming from heaven witnesses what He has seen and heard, and no one receives His testimony.

but being obliged to pass through Samaria,

Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.

where a woman of Samaria being come to draw water, Jesus said to her, give me to drink.

Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

God is spirit [the Source of life, yet invisible to mankind], and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

The woman told him, "I know that the Anointed One is coming, who is being called "the Messiah'. When that person comes, he will explain everything."

Already the person who is harvesting [the crop] is being paid for his work, and is gathering a crop for never ending life, so that the one planting and the one harvesting [the crop] may rejoice together.

This second sign again did Jesus, being come out of Judaea into Galilee.

Some time after this the feast of the Jews being come, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

and there was a certain man there being in ailment thirty and eight years,

He being sick answered him, Lord, I have no man, that, when the water was troubled, he might cast me into the pool: and in which I am coming, another steps down before me.

and immediately the man was healed, and took up his bed, and went his way: but that day being the sabbath,

And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.

This made the Jews more determined than ever to kill Him, for not only was He breaking the Sabbath [from their viewpoint], but He was also calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God.

"Truly, truly, I tell you, the person who listens to my message and believes [in] the One who sent me [i.e., God] has never ending life [i.e., as a hope. See Titus 1:2; 3:7]. He will not be judged [and condemned], but has [already] passed from being [spiritually] dead to being [spiritually] alive.

Stop being surprised at this, for the time is coming when all that are in the graves will listen to His voice,

the sea also -- a great wind blowing -- was being raised,

Then having gone about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and being near the ship; and were terrified.

But Jesus said to them, “It is I (I Am); do not be afraid.”

Not that any one has seen the Father, except he being from God, he has seen the Father.

He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

And it being now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the temple, and he was teaching,

And the Jews marveled, saying, How does this man know letters, not being taught?

When a man receives circumcision on a Sabbath to prevent the Law of Moses from being broken, how can you be angry with me for making a man sound and well on a Sabbath?

(the Pharisees being inform'd what the people rumour'd concerning him, they and the chief priests sent their officers to seize him.)

In the last day, the most solemn day of the feast, Jesus being there, raised his voice, and said, if any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.

He who believes in Me [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Me], as the Scripture has said, ‘From his innermost being will flow continually rivers of living water.’”

The Pharisees replied, "Are you being led astray, too?

Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)

being one of them, saith to them, Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he hath done?

but early in the morning he return'd to the temple, where all the people came to him; and being sat down, he instructed them.

And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

The one being of God hears the words of God: on account of this you do not hear, because you are not of God.

Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, Before Abraham came into being, I am.

He answered therefore, If he is sinful I know not. One thing I know, that, being blind before, now I see.

And those of the Pharisees being with Him heard, and said to Him, Whether are we also blind?

and the hireling, and not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, doth behold the wolf coming, and doth leave the sheep, and doth flee; and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep;

During the winter, when the Festival of Dedication was being held in Jerusalem [Note: This was the Jewish festival commemorating the rededication of the Temple in BC after its pagan desecration by Greeks. It is still observed today by Jews as "Hanukkah."],

The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

Now a certain man, named Lazarus, of Bethany, was lying ill-- Bethany being the village of Mary and her sister Martha.

Then Thomas, which means, "The Twin," said to his fellow disciples, "Let us go too, so we can die with Him." [i.e., by being stoned to death with Jesus. See 11:8].

Then when Jesus came, He found him already being held in the tomb four days.

Bethany was near Jerusalem, the distance being a little less than two miles;
