After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Μετὰ ταῦτα ἦν ἡ ἑορτὴ τῶν Ἰουδαίων, καὶ ἀνέβη ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα.
Meta tauta ēn hē heortē tōn Ioudaiōn, kai anebē ho Iēsous eis Hierosolyma.
Near the Sheep Gate in Jerusalem was a pool called Bethesda in Hebrew. It was surrounded by five covered walkways.
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
Ἔστιν δὲ ἐν τοῖς Ἱεροσολύμοις ἐπὶ τῇ προβατικῇ κολυμβήθρα, ἡ ἐπιλεγομένη Ἑβραϊστὶ Βηθεσδά, πέντε στοὰς ἔχουσα.
Estin de en tois Hierosolymois epi tē probatikē kolymbēthra, hē epilegomenē Hebraisti Bēthesda, pente stoas echousa.
A large number of sick people lay there—the blind, the disabled, and the paralyzed—waiting for the water to move.
In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
Ἐν ταύταις κατέκειτο πλῆθος πολὺ τῶν ἀσθενούντων, τυφλῶν, χωλῶν, ξηρῶν, ἐκδεχομένων τὴν τοῦ ὕδατος κίνησιν.
En tautais katekeito plēthos poly tōn asthenountōn, typhlōn, chōlōn, xērōn, ekdechomenōn tēn tou hydatos kinēsin.
From time to time an angel went down into the pool and stirred the water. The first person to enter the water after it had been stirred was healed of whatever disease he had.
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
Ἄγγελος γὰρ κατὰ καιρὸν κατέβαινεν ἐν τῇ κολυμβήθρᾳ, καὶ ἐτάρασσεν τὸ ὕδωρ∙ ὁ οὖν πρῶτος ἐμβὰς μετὰ τὴν ταραχὴν τοῦ ὕδατος, ὑγιὴς ἐγίνετο, ᾧ δήποτε κατείχετο νοσήματι.
Angelos gar kata kairon katebainen en tē kolymbēthra, kai etarassen to hydōr; ho oun prōtos embas meta tēn tarachēn tou hydatos, hygiēs egineto, hō dēpote kateicheto nosēmati.
One man there had been suffering from his condition for thirty-eight years.
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
Ἦν δέ τις ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖ τριάκοντα ὀκτὼ ἔτη ἔχων ἐν τῇ ἀσθενείᾳ.
Ēn de tis anthrōpos ekei triakonta oktō etē echōn en tē astheneia.
When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been in that condition for a long time, He asked him, “Do you want to be made well?”
When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
Τοῦτον ἰδὼν ὁ Ἰησοῦς κατακείμενον, καὶ γνοὺς ὅτι πολὺν ἤδη χρόνον ἔχει, λέγει αὐτῷ, Θέλεις ὑγιὴς γενέσθαι;
Touton idōn ho Iēsous katakeimenon, kai gnous hoti polyn ēdē chronon echei, legei autō, Theleis hygiēs genesthai?
The sick man answered, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get there, someone else always goes down ahead of me.”
The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
Ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ ὁ ἀσθενῶν, Κύριε, ἄνθρωπον οὐκ ἔχω ἵνα, ὅταν ταραχθῇ τὸ ὕδωρ, βάλῃ με εἰς τὴν κολυμβήθραν∙ ἐν ᾧ δὲ ἔρχομαι ἐγώ, ἄλλος πρὸ ἐμοῦ καταβαίνει.
Apekrithē autō ho asthenōn, Kyrie, anthrōpon ouk echō hina, hotan tarachthē to hydōr, balē me eis tēn kolymbēthran; en hō de erchomai egō, allos pro emou katabainei.
Jesus told him, “Get up. Pick up your mat and walk.”
Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
Λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Ἔγειραι, ἆρον τὸν κράββατόν σου, καὶ περιπάτει.
Legei autō ho Iēsous, Egeirai, aron ton krabbaton sou, kai peripatei.
Immediately the man was healed. He picked up his mat and began walking.
That day was a Sabbath.
And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
Καὶ εὐθέως ἐγένετο ὑγιὴς ὁ ἄνθρωπος, καὶ ἦρεν τὸν κράββατον αὐτοῦ καὶ περιεπάτει. Ἦν δὲ σάββατον ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ.
Kai eutheōs egeneto hygiēs ho anthrōpos, kai ēren ton krabbaton autou kai periepatei. Ēn de sabbaton en ekeinē tē hēmera.
So the Jewish leaders told the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath. The Law does not permit you to carry your mat.”
¶ The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
Ἔλεγον οὖν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι τῷ τεθεραπευμένῳ, Σάββατόν ἐστιν∙ οὐκ ἔξεστίν σοι ἆραι τὸν κράββατον.
Elegon oun hoi Ioudaioi tō tetherapeumenō, Sabbaton estin; ouk exestin soi arai ton krabbaton.
He answered, “The Man who healed me told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’”
He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
Ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς, Ὁ ποιήσας με ὑγιῆ, ἐκεῖνός μοι εἶπεν, Ἆρον τὸν κράββατόν σου καὶ περιπάτει.
Apekrithē autois, Ho poiēsas me hygiē, ekeinos moi eipen, Aron ton krabbaton sou kai peripatei.
They asked, “Who is the Man who told you, ‘Pick up your mat and walk’?”
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
Ἠρώτησαν οὖν αὐτόν, Τίς ἐστιν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ εἰπών σοι, Ἆρον τὸν κράββατόν σου καὶ περιπάτει;
Ērōtēsan oun auton, Tis estin ho anthrōpos ho eipōn soi, Aron ton krabbaton sou kai peripatei?
But the healed man did not know who He was, because Jesus had slipped away into the crowd.
And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
Ὁ δὲ ἰαθεὶς οὐκ ᾔδει τίς ἐστιν∙ ὁ γὰρ Ἰησοῦς ἐξένευσεν, ὄχλου ὄντος ἐν τῷ τόπῳ.
Ho de iatheis ouk ēdei tis estin; ho gar Iēsous exeneusen, ochlou ontos en tō topō.
Later, Jesus found the man in the Temple and told him, “Look, you have been made well. Stop living in sin, so that something worse does not happen to you.”
Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
Μετὰ ταῦτα εὑρίσκει αὐτὸν ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Ἴδε ὑγιὴς γέγονας∙ μηκέτι ἁμάρτανε, ἵνα μὴ χεῖρόν τί σοι γένηται.
Meta tauta heuriskei auton ho Iēsous en tō hierō, kai eipen autō, Ide hygiēs gegonas; mēketi hamartane, hina mē cheiron ti soi genētai.
The man went away and told the Jewish leaders that Jesus was the One who had healed him.
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.
Ἀπῆλθεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος, καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν ὁ ποιήσας αὐτὸν ὑγιῆ.
Apēlthen ho anthrōpos, kai anēngeilen tois Ioudaiois hoti Iēsous estin ho poiēsas auton hygiē.
Because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders began persecuting Him and looking for a way to kill Him.
And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
Καὶ διὰ τοῦτο ἐδίωκον τὸν Ἰησοῦν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι, καὶ ἐζήτουν αὐτὸν ἀποκτεῖναι, ὅτι ταῦτα ἐποίει ἐν σαββάτῳ.
Kai dia touto ediōkon ton Iēsoun hoi Ioudaioi, kai ezētoun auton apokteinai, hoti tauta epoiei en sabbatō.
Jesus answered them, “My Father is still working, and I am working too.”
¶ But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
Ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς ἀπεκρίνατο αὐτοῖς, Ὁ πατήρ μου ἕως ἄρτι ἐργάζεται, κἀγὼ ἐργάζομαι.
Ho de Iēsous apekrinato autois, Ho patēr mou heōs arti ergazetai, kagō ergazomai.
This made them even more determined to kill Him. In their eyes, Jesus was not merely breaking the Sabbath; He was calling God His own Father and thereby making Himself equal with God.
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
Διὰ τοῦτο οὖν μᾶλλον ἐζήτουν αὐτὸν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι ἀποκτεῖναι, ὅτι οὐ μόνον ἔλυεν τὸ σάββατον, ἀλλὰ καὶ πατέρα ἴδιον ἔλεγεν τὸν θεόν, ἴσον ἑαυτὸν ποιῶν τῷ θεῷ.
Dia touto oun mallon ezētoun auton hoi Ioudaioi apokteinai, hoti ou monon elyen to sabbaton, alla kai patera idion elegen ton theon, ison heauton poiōn tō theō.
Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I tell you: the Son does nothing independently of the Father. He does what He sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son does also.
Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
Ἀπεκρίνατο οὖν ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ δύναται ὁ υἱὸς ποιεῖν ἀφ’ ἑαυτοῦ οὐδέν, ἐὰν μή τι βλέπῃ τὸν πατέρα ποιοῦντα∙ ἃ γὰρ ἂν ἐκεῖνος ποιῇ, ταῦτα καὶ ὁ υἱὸς ὁμοίως ποιεῖ.
Apekrinato oun ho Iēsous kai eipen autois, Amēn amēn legō hymin, ou dynatai ho huios poiein aph’ heautou ouden, ean mē ti blepē ton patera poiounta; ha gar an ekeinos poiē, tauta kai ho huios homoiōs poiei.
The Father loves the Son and shows Him everything He Himself is doing. And He will show Him works even greater than these, and you will be amazed.
For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
Ὁ γὰρ πατὴρ φιλεῖ τὸν υἱόν, καὶ πάντα δείκνυσιν αὐτῷ ἃ αὐτὸς ποιεῖ∙ καὶ μείζονα τούτων δείξει αὐτῷ ἔργα, ἵνα ὑμεῖς θαυμάζητε.
Ho gar patēr philei ton huion, kai panta deiknysin autō ha autos poiei; kai meizona toutōn deixei autō erga, hina hymeis thaumazēte.
Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, the Son also gives life to whomever He chooses.
For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
Ὥσπερ γὰρ ὁ πατὴρ ἐγείρει τοὺς νεκροὺς καὶ ζῳοποιεῖ, οὕτως καὶ ὁ υἱὸς οὓς θέλει ζῳοποιεῖ.
Hōsper gar ho patēr egeirei tous nekrous kai zōopoiei, houtōs kai ho huios hous thelei zōopoiei.
The Father does not personally carry out judgment against anyone. He has entrusted all judgment to the Son,
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
Οὐδὲ γὰρ ὁ πατὴρ κρίνει οὐδένα, ἀλλὰ τὴν κρίσιν πᾶσαν δέδωκεν τῷ υἱῷ∙
Oude gar ho patēr krinei oudena, alla tēn krisin pasan dedōken tō huiō;
so that everyone will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Anyone who refuses to honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
ἵνα πάντες τιμῶσιν τὸν υἱόν, καθὼς τιμῶσιν τὸν πατέρα. Ὁ μὴ τιμῶν τὸν υἱόν, οὐ τιμᾷ τὸν πατέρα τὸν πέμψαντα αὐτόν.
hina pantes timōsin ton huion, kathōs timōsin ton patera. Ho mē timōn ton huion, ou tima ton patera ton pempsanta auton.
Truly, truly, I tell you: whoever hears My word and believes the One who sent Me has eternal life. That person does not come under condemnation but has already crossed over from death into life.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ὁ τὸν λόγον μου ἀκούων, καὶ πιστεύων τῷ πέμψαντί με, ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον∙ καὶ εἰς κρίσιν οὐκ ἔρχεται, ἀλλὰ μεταβέβηκεν ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου εἰς τὴν ζωήν.
Amēn amēn legō hymin hoti ho ton logon mou akouōn, kai pisteuōn tō pempsanti me, echei zōēn aiōnion; kai eis krisin ouk erchetai, alla metabebēken ek tou thanatou eis tēn zōēn.
Truly, truly, I tell you: the time is coming—and is already here—when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἔρχεται ὥρα καὶ νῦν ἐστιν, ὅτε οἱ νεκροὶ ἀκούσονται τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ οἱ ἀκούσαντες ζήσονται.
Amēn amēn legō hymin hoti erchetai hōra kai nyn estin, hote hoi nekroi akousontai tēs phōnēs tou huiou tou theou, kai hoi akousantes zēsontai.
Just as the Father has life within Himself, He has also given the Son to have life within Himself.
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
Ὥσπερ γὰρ ὁ πατὴρ ἔχει ζωὴν ἐν ἑαυτῷ, οὕτως ἔδωκεν καὶ τῷ υἱῷ ζωὴν ἔχειν ἐν ἑαυτῷ∙
Hōsper gar ho patēr echei zōēn en heautō, houtōs edōken kai tō huiō zōēn echein en heautō;
And He has given the Son authority to execute judgment because He is the Son of Man.
And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
καὶ ἐξουσίαν ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ καὶ κρίσιν ποιεῖν, ὅτι υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου ἐστίν.
kai exousian edōken autō kai krisin poiein, hoti huios anthrōpou estin.
Do not be amazed at this. A time is coming when everyone in the graves will hear His voice
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
Μὴ θαυμάζετε τοῦτο∙ ὅτι ἔρχεται ὥρα, ἐν ᾗ πάντες οἱ ἐν τοῖς μνημείοις ἀκούσονται τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ,
Mē thaumazete touto; hoti erchetai hōra, en hē pantes hoi en tois mnēmeiois akousontai tēs phōnēs autou,
and come out. Those who have done good will rise to the resurrection of life, and those who have practiced evil will rise to the resurrection of judgment.
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
καὶ ἐκπορεύσονται, οἱ τὰ ἀγαθὰ ποιήσαντες, εἰς ἀνάστασιν ζωῆς∙ οἱ δὲ τὰ φαῦλα πράξαντες, εἰς ἀνάστασιν κρίσεως.
kai ekporeusontai, hoi ta agatha poiēsantes, eis anastasin zōēs; hoi de ta phaula praxantes, eis anastasin kriseōs.
I can do nothing independently of My Father. I judge according to what I hear from Him, and My judgment is right because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.
I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.
Οὐ δύναμαι ἐγὼ ποιεῖν ἀπ’ ἐμαυτοῦ οὐδέν∙ καθὼς ἀκούω, κρίνω∙ καὶ ἡ κρίσις ἡ ἐμὴ δικαία ἐστίν∙ ὅτι οὐ ζητῶ τὸ θέλημα τὸ ἐμόν, ἀλλὰ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ πέμψαντός με πατρός.
Ou dynamai egō poiein ap’ emautou ouden; kathōs akouō, krinō; kai hē krisis hē emē dikaia estin; hoti ou zētō to thelēma to emon, alla to thelēma tou pempsantos me patros.
If I were the only one testifying about Myself, My testimony would not be accepted as legally sufficient.
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
Ἐὰν ἐγὼ μαρτυρῶ περὶ ἐμαυτοῦ, ἡ μαρτυρία μου οὐκ ἔστιν ἀληθής.
Ean egō martyrō peri emautou, hē martyria mou ouk estin alēthēs.
But there is Another who testifies about Me, and I know that His testimony about Me is true.
¶ There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
Ἄλλος ἐστὶν ὁ μαρτυρῶν περὶ ἐμοῦ, καὶ οἶδα ὅτι ἀληθής ἐστιν ἡ μαρτυρία ἣν μαρτυρεῖ περὶ ἐμοῦ.
Allos estin ho martyrōn peri emou, kai oida hoti alēthēs estin hē martyria hēn martyrei peri emou.
You sent messengers to John, and he testified to the truth.
Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
Ὑμεῖς ἀπεστάλκατε πρὸς Ἰωάννην, καὶ μεμαρτύρηκεν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ.
Hymeis apestalkate pros Iōannēn, kai memartyrēken tē alētheia.
I do not depend upon human testimony, but I mention John’s testimony so that you might be saved.
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.
Ἐγὼ δὲ οὐ παρὰ ἀνθρώπου τὴν μαρτυρίαν λαμβάνω, ἀλλὰ ταῦτα λέγω ἵνα ὑμεῖς σωθῆτε.
Egō de ou para anthrōpou tēn martyrian lambanō, alla tauta legō hina hymeis sōthēte.
John was a burning and shining lamp, and for a time you were willing to enjoy his light.
He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
Ἐκεῖνος ἦν ὁ λύχνος ὁ καιόμενος καὶ φαίνων, ὑμεῖς δὲ ἠθελήσατε ἀγαλλιαθῆναι πρὸς ὥραν ἐν τῷ φωτὶ αὐτοῦ.
Ekeinos ēn ho lychnos ho kaiomenos kai phainōn, hymeis de ēthelēsate agalliathēnai pros hōran en tō phōti autou.
But I have testimony far greater than John’s. The works the Father has given Me to complete—the very works I am doing—testify that the Father sent Me.
¶ But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
Ἐγὼ δὲ ἔχω τὴν μαρτυρίαν μείζω τοῦ Ἰωάννου∙ τὰ γὰρ ἔργα ἃ ἔδωκέν μοι ὁ πατὴρ ἵνα τελειώσω αὐτά, αὐτὰ τὰ ἔργα ἃ ἐγὼ ποιῶ, μαρτυρεῖ περὶ ἐμοῦ ὅτι ὁ πατήρ με ἀπέσταλκεν.
Egō de echō tēn martyrian meizō tou Iōannou; ta gar erga ha edōken moi ho patēr hina teleiōsō auta, auta ta erga ha egō poiō, martyrei peri emou hoti ho patēr me apestalken.
And the Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have never heard His voice or seen His form.
And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
Καὶ ὁ πέμψας με πατήρ, αὐτὸς μεμαρτύρηκεν περὶ ἐμοῦ. Οὔτε φωνὴν αὐτοῦ ἀκηκόατε πώποτε, οὔτε εἶδος αὐτοῦ ἑωράκατε.
Kai ho pempsas me patēr, autos memartyrēken peri emou. Oute phōnēn autou akēkoate pōpote, oute eidos autou heōrakate.
His word does not remain within you, because you refuse to believe the One He sent.
And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
Καὶ τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἔχετε μένοντα ἐν ὑμῖν, ὅτι ὃν ἀπέστειλεν ἐκεῖνος, τούτῳ ὑμεῖς οὐ πιστεύετε.
Kai ton logon autou ouk echete menonta en hymin, hoti hon apesteilen ekeinos, toutō hymeis ou pisteuete.
You carefully search the Scriptures because you think that in them you possess eternal life. Yet those very Scriptures testify about Me.
¶ Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
Ἐρευνᾶτε τὰς γραφάς, ὅτι ὑμεῖς δοκεῖτε ἐν αὐταῖς ζωὴν αἰώνιον ἔχειν, καὶ ἐκεῖναί εἰσιν αἱ μαρτυροῦσαι περὶ ἐμοῦ∙
Ereunate tas graphas, hoti hymeis dokeite en autais zōēn aiōnion echein, kai ekeinai eisin hai martyrousai peri emou;
Still, you refuse to come to Me so that you may have life.
And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
καὶ οὐ θέλετε ἐλθεῖν πρός με, ἵνα ζωὴν ἔχητε.
kai ou thelete elthein pros me, hina zōēn echēte.
I do not seek praise from people.
I receive not honour from men.
Δόξαν παρὰ ἀνθρώπων οὐ λαμβάνω∙
Doxan para anthrōpōn ou lambanō;
But I know you, and I know that the love of God is not within you.
But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
ἀλλ’ ἔγνωκα ὑμᾶς, ὅτι τὴν ἀγάπην τοῦ θεοῦ οὐκ ἔχετε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς.
all’ egnōka hymas, hoti tēn agapēn tou theou ouk echete en heautois.
I have come in My Father’s name, and you refuse to receive Me. If someone else comes promoting himself, you will receive him.
I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
Ἐγὼ ἐλήλυθα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ πατρός μου, καὶ οὐ λαμβάνετέ με∙ ἐὰν ἄλλος ἔλθῃ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἰδίῳ, ἐκεῖνον λήψεσθε.
Egō elēlytha en tō onomati tou patros mou, kai ou lambanete me; ean allos elthē en tō onomati tō idiō, ekeinon lēpsesthe.
How can you believe when you seek praise from one another but do not seek the praise that comes from the only God?
How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
Πῶς δύνασθε ὑμεῖς πιστεῦσαι, δόξαν παρὰ ἀλλήλων λαμβάνοντες, καὶ τὴν δόξαν τὴν παρὰ τοῦ μόνου θεοῦ οὐ ζητεῖτε;
Pōs dynasthe hymeis pisteusai, doxan para allēlōn lambanontes, kai tēn doxan tēn para tou monou theou ou zēteite?
Do not think that I will be the One accusing you before the Father. Moses—the very one in whom you have placed your hope—is the one who accuses you.
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
Μὴ δοκεῖτε ὅτι ἐγὼ κατηγορήσω ὑμῶν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα∙ ἔστιν ὁ κατηγορῶν ὑμῶν, Μωσῆς, εἰς ὃν ὑμεῖς ἠλπίκατε.
Mē dokeite hoti egō katēgorēsō hymōn pros ton patera; estin ho katēgorōn hymōn, Mōsēs, eis hon hymeis ēlpikate.
If you truly believed Moses, you would believe Me, because Moses wrote about Me.
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
Εἰ γὰρ ἐπιστεύετε Μωσῇ, ἐπιστεύετε ἂν ἐμοί∙ περὶ γὰρ ἐμοῦ ἐκεῖνος ἔγραψεν.
Ei gar episteuete Mōsē, episteuete an emoi; peri gar emou ekeinos egrapsen.
But if you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?”
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
Εἰ δὲ τοῖς ἐκείνου γράμμασιν οὐ πιστεύετε, πῶς τοῖς ἐμοῖς ῥήμασιν πιστεύσετε;
Ei de tois ekeinou grammasin ou pisteuete, pōs tois emois rhēmasin pisteusete?
