SECTION 12 (39) Jesus goes up to the passover, casts the traders out of the temple: (40) and in answer to the Jews, foretells his resurrection-(41) Miracles are wrought in Jerusalem many believe upon Jesus-(42) Nicodemus has an interview with Jesus. JOHN ii. 13-iii. 21.

temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the 15 changers of money sitting: and when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, 16 and overthrew the tables; and said unto them that sold

doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's 17 house an house of merchandise. And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

18

Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things? 19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, 20 and in three days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews,

Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt 21 thou rear it up in three days? But he spake of the temple 22 of his body. When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

NICODEMUS' INTERVIEW WITH JESUS.

23

Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born 4 when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, 5 verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is 6 born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto 7

ye

12

thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. Nicodemus answered and said 9 unto him, How can these things be? Jesus answered and 10 said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that 11 we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he 13 that came down from heaven, even the Son of man, which is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the 14 wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: that 15 whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his 16 only-begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not 17 his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth 18 on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God. And this is the condem- 19 nation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh 20

JOHN BAPTIZES IN ENON NEAR SALIM.

But he that may be made

SECTION 13.-(43) Jesus dwells in Judæa; his disciples baptize-John also continuing to baptize-(44) John renders the last and most explicit of his testimonies to Jesus Christ (45) Jesus departs from Judæa into Galilee (46) he comes to Sychar— (47) tarries two days at Sychar-John not being yet cast into prison.

After these things came Jesus and his disci- John iii. 22-24. ples into the land of Judæa; and there he L. from Jerusa 23 tarried with them, and baptized. And John lem to Bethel. also was baptizing in Ænon, near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. 24 For John was not yet cast into prison.

Then there arose a question between some No. 44. of John's disciples and the Jews about purify- John iii. 25—36. 26 ing. And they came unto John, and said Enonneur Salim. unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and 27 all men come to him. John answered and said, A man

can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. 28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the 29 Christ, but that I am sent before him. He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is ful30 filled. He must increase, but I must decrease. He that 31 cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from 32 heaven is above all. And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony. 33 He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal 34 that God is true. For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by mea35 sure unto him. The Father loveth the Son, and hath

Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore 6 Sychar. being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well and it was about the sixth hour. There cometh a 7 woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink. (For his disciples were gone away unto 8 the city to buy meat.) Then saith the woman of Samaria 9 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. Jesus answered 10

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. The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast 11 nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water? Art thou greater than 12 our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle? Jesus answered 13 and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again : but whosoever drinketh of the water 14 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.

INTERVIEW WITH THE SAMARITAN WOMAN.

give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither 16 to draw. Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and 17 come hither. The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have 18 no husband: for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst 19 thou truly. The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive 20 that thou art a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where 21 men ought to worship. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this 22 mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: 23 for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and

Ye

now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to 24 worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him 25 must worship him in spirit and in truth. The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called 26 Christ when he is come, he will tell us all things. saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What 28 seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her? The

woman then left her water-pot, and went her way into the 29 city, and saith to the men, Come, see a man, which told me 30 all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ? Then

they went out of the city, and came unto him.

31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, 32 Master, eat. But he said unto them, I have meat to eat 33 that ye know not of. Therefore said the disciples one to 34 another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat? Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent 35 me, and to finish his work.
