of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the cord of his sandal.'

His mother saith to the ministrants, 'Whatever he may say to you -- do.'

and saith to him, 'Every man, at first, the good wine doth set forth; and when they may have drunk freely, then the inferior; thou didst keep the good wine till now.'

this one came unto him by night, and said to him, 'Rabbi, we have known that from God thou hast come -- a teacher, for no one these signs is able to do that thou dost, if God may not be with him.'

Jesus answered and said to him, 'Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born from above, he is not able to see the reign of God;'

Jesus answered, 'Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born of water, and the Spirit, he is not able to enter into the reign of God;

that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during,

for God did so love the world, that His Son -- the only begotten -- He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during.

For God did not send His Son to the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him;

for every one who is doing wicked things hateth the light, and doth not come unto the light, that his works may not be detected;

but he who is doing the truth doth come to the light, that his works may be manifested, that in God they are having been wrought.'

John answered and said, 'A man is not able to receive anything, if it may not have been given him from the heaven;

for his disciples were gone away to the city, that they may buy victuals;

but whoever may drink of the water that I will give him, may not thirst -- to the age; and the water that I will give him shall become in him a well of water, springing up to life age-during.'

The woman saith unto him, 'Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.'

The woman saith to him, 'I have known that Messiah doth come, who is called Christ, when that one may come, he will tell us all things;'

Jesus saith to them, 'My food is, that I may do the will of Him who sent me, and may finish His work;

he, having heard that Jesus is come out of Judea to Galilee, went away unto him, and was asking him that he may come down and may heal his son, for he was about to die.

Jesus then said unto him, 'If signs and wonders ye may not see, ye will not believe.'

The ailing man answered him, 'Sir, I have no man, that, when the water may be troubled, he may put me into the pool, and while I am coming, another doth go down before me.'

After these things, Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, 'Lo, thou hast become whole; sin no more, lest something worse may happen to thee.'

Jesus therefore responded and said to them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything of himself, if he may not see the Father doing anything; for whatever things He may do, these also the Son in like manner doth;

for the Father doth love the Son, and doth shew to him all things that He himself doth; and greater works than these He will shew him, that ye may wonder.

that all may honour the Son according as they honour the Father; he who is not honouring the Son, doth not honour the Father who sent him.

'But I do not receive testimony from man, but these things I say that ye may be saved;

and ye do not will to come unto me, that ye may have life;

Jesus then having lifted up his eyes and having seen that a great multitude doth come to him, saith unto Philip, 'Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?' --

Philip answered him, 'Two hundred denaries' worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little;'

And when they were filled, he saith to his disciples, 'Gather together the broken pieces that are over, that nothing may be lost;'

Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to take him by force that they may make him king, retired again to the mountain himself alone.

They said therefore unto him, 'What may we do that we may work the works of God?'

Jesus answered and said to them, 'This is the work of God, that ye may believe in him whom He did send.'

They said therefore to him, 'What sign, then, dost thou, that we may see and may believe thee? what dost thou work?

And Jesus said to them, 'I am the bread of the life; he who is coming unto me may not hunger, and he who is believing in me may not thirst -- at any time;

all that the Father doth give to me will come unto me; and him who is coming unto me, I may in no wise cast without,

because I have come down out of the heaven, not that I may do my will, but the will of Him who sent me.

'And this is the will of the Father who sent me, that all that He hath given to me I may not lose of it, but may raise it up in the last day;

and this is the will of Him who sent me, that every one who is beholding the Son, and is believing in him, may have life age-during, and I will raise him up in the last day.'

no one is able to come unto me, if the Father who sent me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day;

this is the bread that out of the heaven is coming down, that any one may eat of it, and not die.

I am the living bread that came down out of the heaven; if any one may eat of this bread he shall live -- to the age; and the bread also that I will give is my flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.'

Jesus, therefore, said to them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, If ye may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves;

if then ye may behold the Son of Man going up where he was before?

and he said, 'Because of this I have said to you -- No one is able to come unto me, if it may not have been given him from my Father.'

his brethren, therefore, said unto him, 'Remove hence, and go away to Judea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works that thou dost;

if any one may will to do His will, he shall know concerning the teaching, whether it is of God, or -- I do speak from myself.

if a man doth receive circumcision on a sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are ye wroth with me that I made a man all whole on a sabbath?

and many out of the multitude did believe in him, and said -- 'The Christ -- when he may come -- will he do more signs than these that this one did?'

The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they may take him;

'Doth our law judge the man, if it may not hear from him first, and know what he doth?'

I said, therefore, to you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye may not believe that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.'

Jesus, therefore, said to them, 'When ye may lift up the Son of Man then ye will know that I am he; and of myself I do nothing, but according as my Father did teach me, these things I speak;

Jesus, therefore, said unto the Jews who believed in him, 'If ye may remain in my word, truly my disciples ye are, and ye shall know the truth,

if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free.

Ye are of a father -- the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar -- also his father.

verily, verily, I say to you, If any one may keep my word, death he may not see -- to the age.'

The Jews, therefore, said to him, 'Now we have known that thou hast a demon; Abraham did die, and the prophets, and thou dost say, If any one may keep my word, he shall not taste of death -- to the age!

they took up, therefore, stones that they may cast at him, but Jesus hid himself, and went forth out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

Jesus answered, 'Neither did this one sin nor his parents, but that the works of God may be manifested in him;

These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews, for already had the Jews agreed together, that if any one may confess him -- Christ, he may be put out of the synagogue;

and we have known that God doth not hear sinners, but, if any one may be a worshipper of God, and may do His will, him He doth hear;

he answered and said, 'Who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?'

And Jesus said, 'For judgment I to this world did come, that those not seeing may see, and those seeing may become blind.'

and when his own sheep he may put forth, before them he goeth on, and the sheep follow him, because they have known his voice;

I am the door, through me if any one may come in, he shall be saved, and he shall come in, and go out, and find pasture.

The thief doth not come, except that he may steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.

'Because of this doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that again I may take it;

Therefore, again, did the Jews take up stones that they may stone him;

and if I do, even if me ye may not believe, the works believe, that ye may know and may believe that in me is the Father, and I in Him.'

and Jesus having heard, said, 'This ailment is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.'

then after this, he saith to the disciples, 'We may go to Judea again;'

Jesus answered, 'Are there not twelve hours in the day? if any one may walk in the day, he doth not stumble, because the light of this world he doth see;

and if any one may walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.'

These things he said, and after this he saith to them, 'Lazarus our friend hath fallen asleep, but I go on that I may awake him;'

and I rejoice, for your sake, (that ye may believe,) that I was not there; but we may go to him;'

therefore said Thomas, who is called Didymus, to the fellow-disciples, 'We may go -- we also, that we may die with him,'

Jesus said to her, 'I am the rising again, and the life; he who is believing in me, even if he may die, shall live;

the Jews, therefore, who were with her in the house, and were comforting her, having seen Mary that she rose up quickly and went forth, followed her, saying -- 'She doth go away to the tomb, that she may weep there.'

and I knew that Thou always dost hear me, but, because of the multitude that is standing by, I said it, that they may believe that Thou didst send me.'

the chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered together a sanhedrim, and said, 'What may we do? because this man doth many signs?

if we may let him alone thus, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and will take away both our place and nation.'

nor reason that it is good for us that one man may die for the people, and not the whole nation perish.'

and not for the nation only, but that also the children of God, who have been scattered abroad, he may gather together into one.

From that day, therefore, they took counsel together that they may kill him;

they were seeking, therefore, Jesus, and said one with another, standing in the temple, 'What doth appear to you -- that he may not come to the feast?'

and both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if any one may know where he is, he may shew it, so that they may seize him.

A great multitude, therefore, of the Jews knew that he is there, and they came, not because of Jesus only, but that Lazarus also they may see, whom he raised out of the dead;

and the chief priests took counsel, that also Lazarus they may kill,

And there were certain Greeks out of those coming up that they may worship in the feast,

And Jesus responded to them, saying, 'The hour hath come that the Son of Man may be glorified;

verily, verily, I say to you, if the grain of the wheat, having fallen to the earth, may not die, itself remaineth alone; and if it may die, it doth bear much fruit;

if any one may minister to me, let him follow me, and where I am, there also my ministrant shall be; and if any one may minister to me -- honour him will the Father.

and I, if I may be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto myself.'

Jesus, therefore, said to them, 'Yet a little time is the light with you; walk while ye have the light, that darkness may not overtake you; and he who is walking in the darkness hath not known where he goeth;

while ye have the light, believe in the light, that sons of light ye may become.' These things spake Jesus, and having gone away, he was hid from them,

I a light to the world have come, that every one who is believing in me -- in the darkness may not remain;

and if any one may hear my sayings, and not believe, I -- I do not judge him, for I came not that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.
