1And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
2And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was
born blind?
3Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents:
but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4I must work the works
of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5As
long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6When he had thus spoken,
he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went
his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8The neighbours therefore, and
they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
9Some
said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
10Therefore
said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
11He answered and said, A man
that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and
washed, and I received sight.
12Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said,
I know not.
13They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
14And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put
clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
16Therefore said some of the
Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do
such miracles? And there was a division among them.
17They say unto the blind
man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
18But
the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of
him that had received his sight.
19And they asked them, saying, Is this your
son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
20His parents answered
them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21But
by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for
himself.
22These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for
the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24Then
again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
25He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas
I was blind, now I see.
26Then said they to him again, What did he to thee?
how opened he thine eyes?
27He answered them, I have told you already, and ye
did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?
28Then
they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.
29We
know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.
30The
man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened
mine eyes.
31Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper
of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
32Since the world began was it not
heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
33If this man
were not of God, he could do nothing.
34They answered and said unto him, Thou
wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35Jesus
heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
36He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?
37And
Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.
38And
he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
39And Jesus said, For judgment
I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
40And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind
also?
41Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now
ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth. (John 9)
16And
when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
17And entered
into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
19So
when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the
ship: and they were afraid.
20But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
21Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was
at the land whither they went. (John 6)
31When the Son of
man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
32And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as
a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
33And he shall set the sheep on
his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34Then shall the King say unto them
on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger,
and ye took me in:
36Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me:
I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37Then shall the righteous answer him,
saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38When
saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39Or when
saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40And the King shall answer
and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have
done it unto me.
41Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart
from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42For
I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43I
was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger,
or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45Then shall
he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into
life eternal. (Matthew 25)
1Now a certain
man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2(It
was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
3Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that
the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
5Now Jesus loved Martha, and her
sister, and Lazarus.
6When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode
two days still in the same place where he was.
7Then after that saith he to
his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
8His disciples say unto him, Master,
the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
9Jesus
answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light
of this world.
10But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there
is no light in him.
11These things said he: and after that he saith unto them,
Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
12Then
said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
13Howbeit Jesus spake
of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14Then
said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
15And I am glad for your sakes
that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
16Then
said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
17Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.
18Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:
19And
many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20Then
Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.
21Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.
23Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
24Martha
saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
25Jesus
said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
26And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
27She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should
come into the world.
28And when she had so said, she went her way, and called
Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
29As
soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.
30Now Jesus was
not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.
31The
Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out,
followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.
32Then when Mary
was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother
had not died.
33When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping
which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled.
34And said,
Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.
35Jesus wept.
36Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!
37And
some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have
died?
38Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was
a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
39Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha,
the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
40Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see
the glory of God?
41Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead
was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42And
I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast
sent me.
43And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus,
come forth.
44And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes:
and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
45Then
many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.
46But
some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.
47Then
gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.
48If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away
both our place and nation.
49And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high
priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,
50Nor consider
that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
51And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should
die for that nation;
52And not for that nation only, but that also he should
gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.
53Then
from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.
54Jesus
therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called
Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.
55And the Jews' passover
was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.
56Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think
ye, that he will not come to the feast?
57Now both the chief priests and the
Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.
(John 11)
When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees
had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2(Though Jesus
himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
3He left Judaea, and departed again
into Galilee.
4And he must needs go through Samaria.
5Then
cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the
well: and it was about the sixth hour.
7There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw
water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
8(For his disciples were gone
away unto the city to buy meat.)
9Then 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.
10Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of
God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living
water.
11The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and
the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
12Art thou greater
than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
14But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that
I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
15The
woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
16Jesus
saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17The woman answered
and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
18For
thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
19The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20Our
fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain,
nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22Ye worship ye know not what: we
know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23But the hour cometh, and
now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship
him.
24God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit
and in truth.
25The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which
is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26Jesus saith
unto her, I that speak unto thee am he. (John 4)
50And Jesus
said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus and took him.
51And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and
struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote off his ear.
52Then said
Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
53Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve
legions of angels?
54But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus
it must be? (Matthew 26)
8Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas
unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled;
but that they might eat the passover.
29Pilate then went out unto them, and
said, What accusation bring ye against this man?
30They answered and said unto
him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.
31Then
said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful
for us to put any man to death:
32That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled,
which he spake, signifying what death he should die.
33Then Pilate entered into
the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
34Jesus
answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?
35Pilate
answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?
36Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would
my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
37Pilate
therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for
this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
38Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out
again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all.
39But
ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of
the Jews?
40Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now
Barabbas was a robber. (John 18)
