1:19 And this is the witness of John, when sent to him the Jews from Jerusalem priest s and Levites that they might as him: thou who art? 20 And he confessed and denied not; and he confessed I am not the Christ. 21 And they asked him: What then? Eliza art thou? And he says: I am not. The prophet art thou? And he answered: No. 22 They said therefore to him: Who art thou? that an answer we my give to the ones having sent us: What sayest thou concerning thyself? 23 He said: I am a voice of one crying in the desert: Make straight the way of the Lord, as said Essias the prophet. 24 And the ones having been sent were of the Pharisees. 25 And they asked him and said to him: Why then baptizest thou if thou art not the Christ nor Elias nor the prophet? 26 Answered them John saying: I baptise in water; among you stands one whom ye know not 27 the one after me coming, of whom am not I worthy that I should loosen of him the thong of the sandal. 28 These things in Bethany happened beyond the Jordan, where was John baptising 29 On the morrow he sees Jesus coming toward him, and says: Behold the Lamb of God taking the sin of the world. 30 This is he as to whom I said: After me coming a man who before me has become, became first of me he was. 31 And I knew not him, but that he might be manifested to Israel, therefore came I in water baptising 32 And witnessed John saying I have beheld the Spirit coming down as a dove out of heaven, and he remained on him. 33 And I knew not him, but the one having sent me to baptise in water, that one to me said: On whomever thou sets the Spirit coming down and remaining on him, this is the one baptising in Spirit Holy. 34 And I have seen and have witnessed that this one is the Son of God.

3:22 After these things came Jesus and the disciples of him into the Judean land, and there continued with them and baptised. 23 And was also John baptising in Anon near Slim, because waters many were there, and they came and were baptised. 24 for not (yet) having been cast into the prison John. 25 There was therefore a questioning of the disciples of John with a Jew about purifying. 26 And they came to John and said to him: Rabbi he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold this man baptises and all men are coming to him. 17 answered John and said: Cannot a man to receive not anything unless is having been given to him out of heaven. 28 Yourselves ye to me bear witness that I said. not am I the Christ: but that having been sent I am before that one. 29 The one having the bride a bridegroom is: but the friend of the bridegroom, standing and hearing him, with joy rejoices because of the voice of the bridegroom: This therefore joy my has been fulfilled. 30 That one it behoves to increase, me but to decrease. 31 The one from above coming over all is: the one being of the earth of the earth s and of the earth speaks. The one of heaven coming over all is: 32 What he has seen and heard, this he witnesses to and the witness of him no man receives: 33 The one receiving of him the witness sealed that God true is. 34 For he whom sent God the words of God speaks: for not by measure he gives the Spirit. 35 The Father loves the Son, and all things has given into the hand of him. 36 The he believing in the Son has life eternal; but the one disobeying the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.

4:1 When therefore knew the Lord that heard this Pharisees that Jesus more disciples makes and baptises than John, 2 though Jesus himself baptised not but the disciples of him, 3 he left Judea and went away again into Galilee 4 And it behoved him to pass through Samaria 5 He comes therefore to a city of Samaria being called Sychar, near the piece of land which gave Jacob to Joseph the one of him: 6 and was there a fountain of Jacob. Therefore Jesus having become wearied from the journey sat thus at the fountain the hour was about sixth Comes a woman of Samaria to draw water. Says to her Jesus: Give me to drink. 8 For the disciples of him had gone away into the city, that food they might buy. 9 Says therefore to him the woman Samaritan: How thou a Jew being from me to drink asked woman a Samaritan being? For not associate Jesus with Samaritans. 10 answered Jesus and said to her: If thou knewest the gift of God and who is the one saying to thee: Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked him and he would have given thee water living. 11 She says to him: Sir, no PALL thou hast and the well is deep: whence then thou has the water living? 12 and thou greater art than the father of us Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself of it drank and the sons of him and the cattle of him? 13 Answered Jesus and said to her: Everyone drinking of water this will thirst again: 14 but whoever drinks of the water which I will give him, by no means will l thirst unto the age, but the water which I will give him will become in him fountain of water springing to life eternal. 15 Says to him the woman: Sir give me this water, that I thirst not nor come through hither to draw. 16 He says to her: Go call the husband of thee and come hither. 17 answered the woman and said: I have not a husband. Says to her Jesus: Well sayest thou a husband I have not: 18 five for husbands thou hadst, and now he whom thou hast is not of the husband; this truly thou hast said 19 Says to him the woman;: Sir, I perceive that a prophet art thou: 20 The fathers of us in mountain this worshipped: and ye sayest in Jerusalem is the place where to worship it behoves. 21 Says to her Jesus: Believe me, woman that is coming an hour when neither in mountain this nor in Jerusalem will ye worship the Father. 22 Ye worship what ye know not, we worship what we know, because salvation of the Jews is: 23 but is coming an hour and now is when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth: for indeed the Father such seeks the ones worshiping him: 24 God is spirit, and the ones worshiping in spirit and truth it behoves to worship. 25 Says to him the woman: I know that Messiah is coming the one being called Christ; when comes that one he will announce to us all things. 26 Says to her

Joseph from Nazareth. 46 And said to him Nathanael: Out of Nazareth can anything good to be? Says to him Philip: Come and see. 47 Saw Jesus Nathanael coming toward him and says concerning him: Behold truly an Israelite, in whom guile is not. 48 Says to him Nathanael: Whence me knowest thou? answered Jesus and said to him: Before (pro) thee, Philip to call being under the fig-tree I saw thee. 49 Answered him Nathanael: Rabbi thou art the Son of God, thou king art of Israel. 50 Answered Jesus and said to him: Because I told thee that I saw thee underneath the fig-tree, believest thou? greater than these things thou shalt see. 51 And he says to him: Truly truly I tell you, ye shall see the heaven having been opened and the angels of God going up and coming down on the Son of man.

Jesus: I am, the one speaking to thee. 27 And on this came the disciples of him, and marvelled that with a woman he was speaking; no one however said: What seekest thou or why speakest thou with her? 28 Left therefore water pot of her the woman and went away into the city and sayest the men: 29 Come see a man who told me all things which I did: not this is the Christ? 30 They went forth out of the city and came to him. 31 In the meantime asked him the disciples saying: Rabbi eat. 32 But he said to them: I food have to eat which ye do not know. 33 Said therefore the disciples to one another: Not anyone brought him to eat? 34 Says to them Jesus. My food is that I may do the will of the one having sent e and may finish of him the work. 35 Not ye say that yet four months it is and the harvest comes? Behold I tell you, lift up the eyes of you and behold the fields because white they are to harvest. Already the one reaping wages receives and gathers fruit to life eternal. that the one sowing together may rejoice and the one reaping. 37 For in this the word is true that another one is the one sowing and other the one reaping. 38 I sent you to reap what not ye have laboured: others have laboured, and ye into the labour of them having entered. 39 And out of the city that many believed in him of the Samaritans because of the word of the woman witnessing. He told me all things which I did. 40 When therefore came to him the Samaritans, they asked him to remain with them: and he remained there two days. 41 And more many believed because of the word of him. 42 and to the woman they said No longer because of thy talk we believe: for ourselves we have heard and we know that this man is truly the Saviour of the world.

2:1 And on the day third, a wedding there was in Cana of Galilee, and was the mother of Jesus there: 2 and was invited both Jesus and the disciples of him to the wedding. 3 And lacking wine says the mother of Jesus to him: Wine they have not. 4 And says to her Jesus: What to me and to thee, woman? not yet is come the hour of me. 5 Says the mother of him to the servants: Whatever he tells you, do ye. 6 Now (and) there were there stone water-pots six according to the purifying of the Jews lying. containing each measure two or three. 7 Tells them Jesus: Fill ye the water-pots of water. And they filled them up t the top. 8 And he tells them: Draw now and carry to the master of the feast. And they carried. 9 But when tasted the master of the feast the water wine having become, and did not know whence it was but the servants knew the ones having drawn the water, calls the bridegroom the master of the feast. 10 and says to him: Every manifest the good wine sets forth and when they become drunk the worse; thou has kept the good wine until now. 11 This did beginning of the signs Jesus in Cana of Galilee and manifested the glory of him and believed in him the disciples of him.

2:13 And near was the Passover of the Jews. and went up to Jerusalem Jesus. 14 And he found in the temple the ones selling oxen and sheep and doves and the coin dealers sitting. 15 and having made a lash out of ropes all he expelled out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen, and of the money changers poured out the coins and the tables overturned. 16 and to the ones the doves selling said: Take these things hence, do not make the house of the Father of me a house of merchandise. 17 Remembered the disciples of him that having been written it is: The zeal of the house of thee will consume me. 18 answered therefore the Jews and said to him: What sign showest thou to us, because these things thou doest. 19 answered Jesus and said to them: Destroy shrine this, and in three days I will raise it, 20 Said therefore the Jews: in forty and six years was built shrine this, and thou in three days will raise it? 21 but that one spoke about the shrine of the body of him. 22 When therefore he was raised from the dead, remembered the disciples of him that this he said, and they believed the Scripture and the word which said Jesus. 23 And when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover at the feast many believed in the name of him, beholding of him the signs which he was doing: 24 but himself Jesus did not commit himself to them because he knew him to know all men. 25 and because no need he had that anyone should witness concerning man; for he knew what was in man.

5:1 After these things there was a feast of the Jews: and went up Jesus to Jerusalem. there is Now in Jerusalem at the sheep gate a pool the one being called in Hebrew Bethsatha; five porches having: 3 In these lay a multitude of the ailing ones. blind lame, withered. 5 And there was a certain man there thirty-eight years having in the ailment of him: 6 this man seen Jesus lying, and knowing that much already time he has, says to him: Wishest thou whole to become? 7 Answered him the ailing one: Sir, a man I have not, that when is troubled the water he may put me into the pool; but while am coming I, another before me goes down. 8 Says to him Jesus: Rise take the mattress of thee and walk. 9 immediately became whole the man, and took the mattress of him and walked. And it was a Sabbath on that day. 10 Said therefore the Jews to the one having been heard: A Sabbath it is, and it is not lawful for thee to take the mattress. 11 But who answered them: The one making me whole, that one me told: Take the mattress of thee and walk. 12 They asked him: Who is the man telling thee: Take and walk? 13 But the one cured did not know who it is for Jesus withdrew a crowd being in the place. 14 After these things finds him Jesus in the temple and said to him: Behold whole thou has become no longer sin. lest worse to thee something happens. 15 Went away the man and told the Jews that Jesus it is the one having made him whole. 16 And therefore persecuted the Jews Jesus because these things he did on a Sabbath. 17 But he answered them: The Father of me until now works and I work: 18 because of this therefore the more sought him the Jews to kill, because not only he broke the Sabbath, but also Father his own said God to be equal himself making to God. 19 Answered therefore Jesus and said to them: Truly truly I say to you cannot the Son to do from himself not anything except what he sees the Father doing: for whatever things that one does; these also the Son likewise does. 20 For the Father loves the Son and all things shows him which he does, and great than these he will show him works, that ye may marvel. 21 For as the Father raises the dead and quickens; so also the Son whom he will quickens. 22 For not the Father judges no any one, but judgment all he has given to the Son. 23 that all men may honour the Son as they honour the Father The one not honouring the Son honours not the Father having sent him. 24 Truly truly I say to you. The one the word of me hearing and believing the one having sent me has life eternal and into judgment comes not but has passed over out of death into life.

3:1 Now (and) there was a man of the Pharisees Nicodemus name to him, a ruler of the Jews: 2 this man came to him of night and said to him: Rabbi we know that from God thou has become a teacher; for no one can these signs to do which thou doest, except is God with him. 3 answered Jesus and said to him: Truly truly I tell thee, except anyone is born from above, he cannot to see the kingdom of God. 4 Says to him Nicodemus; How can a man to be born old being not can he into the womb of the mother of him secondly to enter and to be born? 5 answered Jesus Truly truly I tell thee, except anyone is born of water and spirit, he cannot to enter into the kingdom of God. 6 The thing having been born of the flesh, flesh is, and the thing having been born of the Spirit is. 7 not Marvel because I told thee: It behoves you to be born from above. 8 The spirit where it wishes blows and the sound of it thou hearts, but thou knowest not whence it comes and whither it goes; so is everyone having been born of the Spirit. 9 Answered Nicodemus and said to him: How can these things to come about? 10 answered Jesus and said to him: Thou art the teacher of Israel and these things knowest not? 11 Truly truly I tell thee What we know we speak and what we have seen we witness, and the witness of us ye receive not. 12 If the earthly things I told you and ye believe not, how if I tell you the heavenly things will ye believe? 13 And no man has gone up into heaven except the one out of heaven having come down, the Son of man. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so to be lifted up it behoves the Son of man, 15 that everyone believing in him may have life eternal. 1 For thus loved God the world, so as the Son the only begotten he gave, that everyone believing him him may not

5:25 Truly truly I say to you, Comes an hour and now is when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and the ones hearing will live. 26 as For the Father has life in himself: so also to the Son he gave life to have in himself. 27 And authority he gave him judgment to do, because son of man he is. 28 Marvel not this, because comes an hour in which all the ones in the tombs will hear the voice of him 29 and will come forth the ones the good things having done to a resurrection of life, the ones the evil things having done to a resurrection of judgment. 30 Cannot I to do from myself no anything as I hear I judge, and judgment my just is, because I seek not will my but the will of the one having sent me. 31 If I witness concerning myself, the witness of me is not true. 32 Another there is one witnessing concerning me, and I know that true is the witness which he witnesses concerning me. 33 Ye have sent to John and he has witnessed to the truth: 34 but I not from man the witness receive, but these things I say that ye may be saved. 35 That man was the lamp burning and shining, and ye were willing to exult for an hour in the light of him. 36 But I have the witness greater than of John; for the works which has given me the Father the I may finish them themselves the works which I do, witnesses concerning me that the Father me has sent. 37 And the having sent me Father that he has witnessed concerning me. Neither voice of him never ye have heard nor form of him ye have seen. 38 and the word of him yet have not in you remaining, because he whom sent that one the is one ye do not believe. 39 Ye search the Scriptures, because ye think in them life eternal to have: and those are the ones witnessing concerning me: 40 and ye wish not to come to me that life ye may have.

Moses in whom ye have hoped. 46 if For ye believed Moses ye would have believed me: for concerning me that one wrote. 47 But if the of that one litters not ye believe how my words will be believe?
