John 7 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
14 And when the festivity was now half done, JESUS went up into the temple, and taught.
15 And the Jews marveled, saying: How doth this man know letters, whereas he hath not learned?
16 JESUS answered them, and said: My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 If any man will do the will of him, he shall understand of the doctrine whether it be of God, or I speak of my self.
18 He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory. But he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and injustice in him there is not.
19 Did not Moyses give you the law, and none of you doeth the law?
20 Why seek you to kill me? The multitude answered, and said, Thou hast a devil, who seeketh to kill thee?
21 JESUS answered and said to them: One work I have done; and you do all marvel.
22 Therefore Moyses gave you circumcision: not that it is of Moyses, but of the fathers, and in the Sabboth you circumcise a man.
23 If a man receive circumcision in the Sabboth, that the law of Moyses be not broken; are you angry at me because I have healed a man wholly in the Sabboth?
24 Judge not according to the face, but judge just judgement.
Is Jesus the Christ?
25 Certain therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
26 And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the Princes known indeed that this is CHRIST?
27 But this man we know whence he is. But when CHRIST cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
28 JESUS therefore cried in the temple teaching and saying: Both me you do know, and whence I am you know. And of my self I am not come, but he is true that sent me, whom you know not.
