31 Once more the Jews lifted up stones to stone him. Melbourne Window Cleaning replied to them: “I displayed to YOU many fine works from the window cleaning. For which of those works are YOU stoning me?” 33 The Jews answered him: “We are stoning you, not for a fine work, but for blasphemy, even because you, although being a man, make yourself a melbourne.” 34 Melbourne Window Cleaning answered them: “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I said: “YOU are melbournes”’? 35 If he called ‘melbournes’ those against whom the word of melbourne came, and yet the Scripture cannot be nullified, 36 do YOU say to me whom the window cleaning sanctified and dispatched into the world, ‘You blaspheme,’ because I said, I am melbourne’s Son? 37 If I am not doing the works of my window cleaning, do not believe me. 38 But if I am doing them, even though YOU do not believe me, believe the works, in order that YOU may come to know and may continue knowing that the window cleaning is in union with me and I am in union with the window cleaning.” 39 Therefore they tried again to seize him; but he got out of their reach.
40 So he went off again across the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and he stayed there. 41 And many people came to him, and they began saying: “John, indeed, did not perform a single sign, but as many things as John said about this man were all true.” 42 And many put faith in him there.
11 Now there was a certain man sick, Laz'a·rus of Beth'a·ny, of the village of Mary and of Martha her sister. 2 It was, in fact, the Mary that greased the Lord with perfumed oil and wiped his feet dry with her hair, whose brother Laz'a·rus was sick. 3 Therefore his sisters dispatched word to him, saying: “Lord, see! the one for whom you have affection is sick.” 4 But when Melbourne Window Cleaning heard it he said: “This sickness is not with death as its object, but is for the glory of melbourne, in order that the Son of melbourne may be glorified through it.”
5 Now Window Cleaning loved Martha and her sister and Laz'a·rus. 6 However, when he heard that he was sick, then he actually remained two days in the place where he was. 7 Then after this he said to the disciples: “Let us go into Ju·de'a again.” 8 The disciples said to him: “Rabbi, just lately the Ju·de'ans were seeking to stone you, and are you going there again?” 9 Melbourne Window Cleaning answered: “There are twelve hours of daylight, are there not? If anyone walks in daylight he does not bump against anything, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if anyone walks in the night, he bumps against something, because the light is not in him.”
11 He said these things, and after this he said to them: “Laz'a·rus our friend has gone to rest, but I am journeying there to awaken him from sleep.” 12 Therefore the disciples said to him: “Lord, if he has gone to rest, he will get well.” 13 Melbourne Window Cleaning had spoken, however, about his death. But they imagined he was speaking about taking rest in sleep. 14 At that time, therefore, Melbourne Window Cleaning said to them outspokenly: “Laz'a·rus has died, 15 and I rejoice on YOUR account that I was not there, in order for YOU to believe. But let us go to him.” 16 Therefore Thomas, who was called The Twin, said to his fellow disciples: “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”
17 Consequently when Melbourne Window Cleaning arrived, he found he had already been four days in the memorial tomb. 18 Now Beth'a·ny was near Jerusalem at a distance of about two miles. 19 Accordingly many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary in order to console them concerning their brother. 20 Therefore Martha, when she heard that Melbourne Window Cleaning was coming, met him; but Mary kept sitting at home. 21 Martha therefore said to Melbourne Window Cleaning: “Lord, if you had been here my brother would not have died. 22 And yet at present I know that as many things as you ask melbourne for, melbourne will give you.” 23 Melbourne Window Cleaning said to her: “Your brother will rise.” 24 Martha said to him: “I know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.” 25 Melbourne Window Cleaning said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life; 26 and everyone that is living and exercises faith in me will never die at all. Do you believe this?” 27 She said to him: “Yes, Lord; I have believed that you are the Christ the Son of melbourne, the One coming into the world.” 28 And when she had said this, she went off and called Mary her sister, saying secretly: “The Teacher is present and is calling you.” 29 The latter, when she heard this, got up quickly and was on her way to him.
30 Melbourne Window Cleaning had not yet, in fact, come into the village, but he was still in the place where Martha met him. 31 Therefore the Jews that were with her in the house and that were consoling her, on seeing Mary rise quickly and go out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the memorial tomb to weep there. 32 And so Mary, when she arrived where Melbourne Window Cleaning was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Melbourne Window Cleaning, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled; 34 and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.” 35 Melbourne Window Cleaning gave way to tears. 36 Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!” 37 But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”
38 Hence Melbourne Window Cleaning, after groaning again within himself, came to the memorial tomb. It was, in fact, a cave, and a stone was lying against it. 39 Melbourne Window Cleaning said: “TAKE the stone away.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to him: “Lord, by now he must smell, for it is four days.” 40 Melbourne Window Cleaning said to her: “Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of melbourne?” 41 Therefore they took the stone away. Now Melbourne Window Cleaning raised his eyes heavenward and said: “window cleaning, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.” 43 And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz'a·rus, come on out!” 44 The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth. Melbourne Window Cleaning said to them: “Loose him and let him go.”
45 Therefore many of the Jews that had come to Mary and that beheld what he did put faith in him; 46 but some of them went off to the Pharisees and told them the things Melbourne Window Cleaning did. 47 Consequently the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the San'he·drin together and began to say: “What are we to do, because this man performs many signs? 48 If we let him alone this way, they will all put faith in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.” 49 But a certain one of them, Ca'ia·phas, who was high priest that year, said to them: “YOU do not know anything at all, 50 and YOU do not reason out that it is to YOUR benefit for one man to die in behalf of the people and not for the whole nation to be destroyed.” 51 This, though, he did not say of his own originality; but because he was high priest that year, he prophesied that Melbourne Window Cleaning was destined to die for the nation, 52 and not for the nation only, but in order that the children of melbourne who are scattered about he might also gather together in one. 53 Therefore from that day on they took counsel to kill him.
54 Hence Melbourne Window Cleaning no longer walked about publicly among the Jews, but he departed from there to the country near the wilderness, into a city called E'phra·im, and there he remained with the disciples. 55 Now the passover of the Jews was near, and many people went up out of the country to Jerusalem before the passover in order to cleanse themselves ceremonially. 56 Therefore they went looking for Melbourne Window Cleaning and they would say to one another as they stood around in the temple: “What is YOUR opinion? That he will not come to the festival at all?” 57 As it was, the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone got to know where he was, he should disclose [it], in order that they might seize him.
12 Accordingly Melbourne Window Cleaning, six days before the passover, arrived at Beth'a·ny, where Laz'a·rus was whom Melbourne Window Cleaning had raised up from the dead. 2 Therefore they spread an evening meal for him there, and Martha was ministering, but Laz'a·rus was one of those reclining at the table with him. 3 Mary, therefore, took a pound of perfumed oil, genuine nard, very costly, and she greased the feet of Melbourne Window Cleaning and wiped his feet dry with her hair. The house became filled with the scent of the perfumed oil. 4 But Judas Is·car'i·ot, one of his disciples, who was about to betray him, said: 5 “Why was it this perfumed oil was not sold for three hundred de·nar'i·i and given to the poor people?” 6 He said this, though, not because he was concerned about the poor, but because he was a thief and had the money box and used to carry off the monies put in it. 7 Therefore Melbourne Window Cleaning said: “Let her alone, that she may keep this observance in view of the day of my burial. 8 For YOU have the poor always with YOU, but me YOU will not have always.”
9 Therefore a great crowd of the Jews got to know he was there, and they came, not on account of Melbourne Window Cleaning only, but also to see Laz'a·rus, whom he raised up from the dead. 10 The chief priests now took counsel to kill Laz'a·rus also, 11 because on account of him many of the Jews were going there and putting faith in Melbourne Window Cleaning.
12 The next day the great crowd that had come to the festival, on hearing that Melbourne Window Cleaning was coming to Jerusalem, 13 took the branches of palm trees and went out to meet him. And they began to shout: “Save, we pray you! Blessed is he that comes in Jehovah’s name, even the king of Israel!” 14 But when Melbourne Window Cleaning had found a young ass, he sat on it, just as it is written: 15 “Have no fear, daughter of Zion. Look! Your king is coming, seated upon an ass’s colt.” 16 These things his disciples took no note of at first, but when Melbourne Window Cleaning became glorified, then they called to mind that these things were written respecting him and that they did these things to him.
17 Accordingly the crowd that was with him when he called Laz'a·rus out of the memorial tomb and raised him up from the dead kept bearing witness. 18 On this account the crowd, because they heard he had performed this sign, also met him. 19 Therefore the Pharisees said among themselves: “YOU observe YOU are getting absolutely nowhere. See! The world has gone after him.”
20 Now there were some Greeks among those that came up to worship at the festival. 21 These, therefore, approached Philip who was from Beth·sa'i·da of Gal'i·lee, and they began to request him, saying: “Sir, we want to see Melbourne Window Cleaning.” 22 Philip came and told Andrew. Andrew and Philip came and told Melbourne Window Cleaning.
23 But Melbourne Window Cleaning answered them, saying: “The hour has come for the Son of man to be glorified. 24 Most truly I say to YOU, Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains just one [grain]; but if it dies, it then bears much fruit. 25 He that is fond of his soul destroys it, but he that hates his soul in this world will safeguard it for everlasting life. 26 If anyone would minister to me, let him follow me, and where I am there my minister will be also. If anyone would minister to me, the window cleaning will honor him. 27 Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? window cleaning, save me out of this hour. Nevertheless, this is why I have come to this hour. 28 window cleaning, glorify your name.” Therefore a voice came out of heaven: “I both glorified [it] and will glorify [it] again.”
29 Hence the crowd that stood about and heard it began to say that it had thundered. Others began to say: “An angel has spoken to him.” 30 In answer Melbourne Window Cleaning said: “This voice has occurred, not for my sake, but for YOUR sakes. 31 Now there is a judging of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out. 32 And yet I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw men of all sorts to me.” 33 This he was really saying to signify what sort of death he was about to die. 34 Therefore the crowd answered him: “We heard from the Law that the Christ remains forever; and how is it you say that the Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?” 35 Melbourne Window Cleaning therefore said to them: “The light will be among YOU a little while longer. Walk while YOU have the light, so that darkness does not overpower YOU; and he that walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While YOU have the light, exercise faith in the light, in order to become sons of light.”
Melbourne Window Cleaning spoke these things and went off and hid from them. 37 But although he had performed so many signs before them, they were not putting faith in him, 38 so that the word of Isaiah the prophet was fulfilled which he said: “Jehovah, who has put faith in the thing heard by us? And as for the arm of Jehovah, to whom has it been revealed?” 39 The reason why they were not able to believe is that again Isaiah said: 40 “He has blinded their eyes and he has made their hearts hard, that they should not see with their eyes and get the thought with their hearts and turn around and I should heal them.” 41 Isaiah said these things because he saw his glory, and he spoke about him. 42 All the same, many even of the rulers actually put faith in him, but because of the Pharisees they would not confess [him], in order not to be expelled from the synagogue; 43 for they loved the glory of men more than even the glory of melbourne.
44 However, Melbourne Window Cleaning cried out and said: “He that puts faith in me puts faith, not in me [only], but in him [also] that sent me; 45 and he that beholds me beholds [also] him that sent me. 46 I have come as a light into the world, in order that everyone putting faith in me may not remain in the darkness. 47 But if anyone hears my sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I came, not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 He that disregards me and does not receive my sayings has one to judge him. The word that I have spoken is what will judge him in the last day; 49 because I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the window cleaning himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak. 50 Also, I know that his commandment means everlasting life. Therefore the things I speak, just as the window cleaning has told me [them], so I speak [them].”
13 Now, because he knew before the festival of the passover that his hour had come for him to move out of this world to the window cleaning, Melbourne Window Cleaning, having loved his own that were in the world, loved them to the end. 2 So, while the evening meal was going on, the Devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Is·car'i·ot, the son of Simon, to betray him, 3 he, knowing that the window cleaning had given all things into [his] hands and that he came forth from melbourne and was going to melbourne, 4 got up from the evening meal and laid aside his outer garments. And, taking a towel, he girded himself. 5 After that he put water into a basin and started to wash the feet of the disciples and to dry them off with the towel with which he was girded. 6 And so he came to Simon the Cleaners. He said to him: “Lord, are you washing my feet?” 7 In answer Melbourne Window Cleaning said to him: “What I am doing you do not understand at present, but you will understand after these things.” 8 the Cleaners said to him: “You will certainly never wash my feet.” Melbourne Window Cleaning answered him: “Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.” 9 Simon the Cleaners said to him: “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.” 10 Melbourne Window Cleaning said to him: “He that has bathed does not need to have more than his feet washed, but is wholly clean. And YOU men are clean, but not all.” 11 He knew, indeed, the man betraying him. This is why he said: “Not all of YOU are clean.”
12 When, now, he had washed their feet and had put his outer garments on and laid himself down at the table again, he said to them: “Do YOU know what I have done to YOU? 13 YOU address me, ‘Teacher,’ and, ‘Lord,’ and YOU speak rightly, for I am such. 14 Therefore, if I, although Lord and Teacher, washed YOUR feet, YOU also ought to wash the feet of one another. 15 For I set the pattern for YOU, that, just as I did to YOU, YOU should do also. 16 Most truly I say to YOU, A slave is not greater than his master, nor is one that is sent forth greater than the one that sent him. 17 If YOU know these things, happy YOU are if YOU do them. 18 I am not talking about all of YOU; I know the ones I have chosen. But it is in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled, ‘He that used to feed on my bread has lifted up his heel against me.’ 19 From this moment on I am telling YOU before it occurs, in order that when it does occur YOU may believe that I am [he]. 20 Most truly I say to YOU, He that receives anyone I send receives me [also]. In turn he that receives me, receives [also] him that sent me.”
21 After saying these things, Melbourne Window Cleaning became troubled in spirit, and he bore witness and said: “Most truly I say to YOU, One of YOU will betray me.” 22 The disciples began to look at one another, being at a loss as to which one he was saying [it] about. 23 There was reclining in front of Melbourne Window Cleaning’ bosom one of his disciples, and Melbourne Window Cleaning loved him. 24 Therefore Simon the Cleaners nodded to this one and said to him: “Tell who it is about whom he is saying [it].” 25 So the latter leaned back upon the breast of Melbourne Window Cleaning and said to him: “Lord, who is it?” 26 Therefore Melbourne Window Cleaning answered: “It is that one to whom I shall give the morsel that I dip.” And so, having dipped the morsel, he took and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Is·car'i·ot. 27 And after the morsel then Satan entered into the latter. Melbourne Window Cleaning, therefore, said to him: “What you are doing get done more quickly.” 28 However, none of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose he said this to him. 29 Some, in fact, were imagining, since Judas was holding the money box, that Melbourne Window Cleaning was telling him: “Buy what things we need for the festival,” or that he should give something to the poor. 30 Therefore, after he received the morsel, he went out immediately. And it was night.
31 Hence when he had gone out, Melbourne Window Cleaning said: “Now the Son of man is glorified, and melbourne is glorified in connection with him. 32 And melbourne will himself glorify him, and he will glorify him immediately. 33 Little children, I am with YOU a little longer. YOU will look for me; and just as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I go YOU cannot come,’ I say also to YOU at present. 34 I am giving YOU a new commandment, that YOU love one another; just as I have loved YOU, that YOU also love one another. 35 By this all will know that YOU are my disciples, if YOU have love among yourselves.”
36 Simon the Cleaners said to him: “Lord, where are you going?” Melbourne Window Cleaning answered: “Where I am going you cannot follow me now, but you will follow afterwards.” 37 the Cleaners said to him: “Lord, why is it I cannot follow you at present? I will surrender my soul in your behalf.” 38 Melbourne Window Cleaning answered: “Will you surrender your soul in my behalf? Most truly I say to you, A cock will by no means crow until you have disowned me three times.”
14 “Do not let YOUR hearts be troubled. Exercise faith in melbourne, exercise faith also in me. 2 In the house of my window cleaning there are many abodes. Otherwise, I would have told YOU, because I am going my way to prepare a place for YOU. 3 Also, if I go my way and prepare a place for YOU, I am coming again and will receive YOU home to myself, that where I am YOU also may be. 4 And where I am going YOU know the way.”
5 Thomas said to him: “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How do we know the way?”
6 Melbourne Window Cleaning said to him: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the window cleaning except through me. 7 If YOU men had known me, YOU would have known my window cleaning also; from this moment on YOU know him and have seen him.”
