7 I muri i enei mea ka haereere a Ihu i Kariri: kahore hoki ia i pai ki te haereere i Huria, e rapu ana hoki nga Hurai kia whakamatea ia.
2 Na kua tata te hakari a nga Hurai, te hakari whare wharau.
3 Na ka mea ona teina ki a ia, Haere atu i konei, anga atu ki Huria, kia kite ai hoki au akonga i au mahi e mahi nei koe.
4 E kore hoki tetahi tangata e mea huna i tetahi mea, ki te whai ia kia ara tona ingoa. Ki te mea koe i enei mea, kia kite te ao i a koe.
5 Ko ona teina tonu hoki kihai i whakapono ki a ia.
6 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Kahore ano kia taea noatia toku taima: ko to koutou taima ia kei nga wa katoa.
7 E kore e ahei kia kino te ao ki a koutou; engari ka kino ki ahau, no te mea e whakaaturia ana e ahau te kino o ana mahi.
8 Haere koutou ki tenei hakari: e kore ahau e haere wawe ki tenei hakari; kahore hoki toku taima kia ata rite noa.
9 A ka mutu tenei korero ana ki a ratou, ka noho tonu ia ki Kariri.
10 A, no ka riro ona teina ki te hakari, ka haere ano hoki ia, ehara i te mea whakakite nui, engari i tu a huna.
11 Heoi i rapu nga Hurai i a ia i te hakari, i mea, Kei hea ia?
12 He nui hoki te korero komuhumuhu mona i roto i te mano: ko etahi i mea, He tangata pai ia: ko etahi i mea, Kahore, engari e whakapohehe ana ia i te iwi.
13 Heoi kihai i rahi te korero a tetahi tangata mona, he wehi ki nga Hurai.
14 Na, i waenganui o te hakari, ka haere a Ihu ki roto ki te temepara whakaako ai.
15 A ka miharo nga Hurai, ka mea, na te aha i hua ai te mohio o tenei tangata, ehara nei hoki ia i te mea whakaako?
16 Ka whakahoki a Ihu ki a ratou, ka mea, Ehara i te mea naku ake taku e whakaako nei, engari na toku kaitono mai.
17 Ki te pai tetahi tangata ki te mea i tana e pai ai, e matau ia ki te whakaakoranga, na te Atua ranei, he korero naku ake ranei.
18 Ko te tangata nana ake tana korero, e whai ana ia i tona ake kororia: tena ki te whai tetahi i te kororia o tona kaitono, e pono ana ia, a kahore ona he.
19 He teka ianei na Mohi te ture i hoatu ki a koutou, a kahore e whakaritea te ture e tetahi o koutou? He aha koutou ka whai nei kia whakamatea ahau?
20 Na ka whakahoki te mano ka mea, He rewera tou: ko wai te whai ana kia whakamatea koe?
21 Ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kotahi aku mahi i mahi ai, a e miharotia ana e koutou katoa.
22 I homai e Mohi te kotinga ki a koutou; ehara ano ia i te mea na Mohi ake, engari na nga tupuna; e kokoti ana hoki koutou i te tangata i te hapati.
23 Ki te kotia te tangata i te hapati, kei takahia te ture a Mohi; e riri ana oti koutou ki ahau, moku i whakaora rawa i te tangata i te hapati?
24 Kaua e waiho te whakawa i runga i ta te kanohi, engari kia tika ta koutou whakawa.
25 Me i reira ka mea etahi o nga tangata o Hiruharama, Ehara oti tenei i a ia e whaia nei e ratou kia whakamatea?
26 Na, maia tonu tana korero, a kahore a ratou kupu ki a ia. E tino matau ana ranei nga rangatira, ko te Karaiti pu tenei?
27 Otiia e matau ana tatou ki te wahi i puta mai ai tenei: tena ka tae mai a te Karaiti, kahore he tangata e matau ki te wahi e puta mai ai ia.
28 Na ka karanga a Ihu i te temepara i a ia e whakaako ana, ka mea, E matau ana koutou ki ahau, e matau ana ano ki te wahi i haere mai ai ahau: ehara i ahau ake taku haere mai; engari e pono ana te kaitono mai i ahau; kahore nei koutou i matau ki a ia.
29 E matau ana ahau ki a ia; i puta mai hoki ahau i a ia, nana ano ahau i tono mai.
30 A i whai ratou kia hopukia ia: otiia kihai i pa te ringa o tetahi ki a ia, kahore hoki tona haora i taka noa.
31 A he tokomaha o te mano i whakapono ki a ia, i mea, ka tae mai a te Karaiti, tera ranei e maha atu ana merekara e mea ai i a tenei e mea nei?
32 I rongo nga Parihi i te mano e korerorero ana i enei mea mona; na ka tonoa mai e nga Parihi ratou ko nga tohunga nui he katipa ki te hopu i a ia.
33 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, He iti noa ake te wahi e noho ai ahau ki a koutou, katahi ahau ka haere ki toku kaitono mai.
34 Tera koutou e rapu i ahau, heoi e kore koutou e kite: e kore hoki koutou e ahei te haere ake ki te wahi e noho ai ahau.
35 Na ka mea nga Hurai ki a ratou ano, E haere oti te tangata nei ki hea, e kore ai e kitea e tatou? e haere oti ia ki nga manene i roto i nga Kariki, ako ai i nga Kariki?
36 He ki aha tenei e ki nei ia, Tera koutou e rapu i ahau, a e kore e kite: e kore hoki koutou e ahei te haere ake ki te wahi e noho ai ahau?
37 I te ra whakamutunga, i te ra nui o te hakari, ka tu a Ihu, ka karanga, ka mea, Ki te matewai tetahi, haere mai ia ki ahau, kia inu.
38 Ki te whakapono tetahi ki ahau, ka rite ki ta te karaipiture, ka rere mai nga wai ora i roto i tona kopu.
39 I korerotia tenei e ia mo te Wairua, meake nei riro i te hunga e whakapono ana ki a ia; kahore ano hoki te Wairua Tapu kia homai noa; no te mea kiano a Ihu i whakakororiatia noatia.
40 Ko etahi o te mano i to ratou rongonga i tenei kupu, i mea, he pono ko te Poropiti tenei.
41 Ka mea etahi, Ko te Karaiti tenei. Ko etahi i mea, E puta mai ranei a te Karaiti i Kariri?
42 Kahore koia te karaipiture i mea, E puta mai a te Karaiti i te uri o Rawiri, i Peterehema, i te kainga i noho ai a Rawiri?
43 Na ka waiho ia hei take wehewehenga ma te mano.
44 Ko etahi o ratou i mea kia hopukia ia: otira kihai i pa nga ringa o tetahi ki a ia.
45 Na ko te taenga atu o nga katipa ki nga tohunga nui ratou ko nga Parihi; ka mea atu enei ki a ratou, he aha ia te kawea mai ai e koutou.
46 Ka whakahokia e nga katipa, Kahore rawa he tangata i rite ana korero ki a tenei.
47 Na ka whakahokia ta ratou e nga Parihi, Kua tinihangatia ano hoki koutou?
48 Kua whakapono koia tetahi o nga rangatira, o nga Parihi ranei ki a ia?
49 Ko tenei hunga ia e kore nei e matau ki te ture, ka oti ratou te kanga.
50 Ka mea a Nikorima ki a ratou, tera i haere mai ra ki a ia i mua, ko ia hoki tetahi o ratou,
51 Ka whakahengia ranei te tangata e to tatou ture, i te mea kahore ano i whakarongo noa ki a ia, i matau hoki ki tana mahi?
52 Na ka whakahoki ratou, ka mea ki a ia, Ko koe hoki tetahi no Kariri? Tena rapua, ka kite koe, kahore kia ara noa tetahi poropiti i Kariri.
53 Na hoki ana ratou ki tona whare, ki tona whare.

Jesus Goes to the Festival of Tabernacles
7 After this, Jesus went around in Galilee. He did not want[a] to go about in Judea because the Jewish leaders(A) there were looking for a way to kill him.(B) 2 But when the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles(C) was near, 3 Jesus’ brothers(D) said to him, “Leave Galilee and go to Judea, so that your disciples there may see the works you do. 4 No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.” 5 For even his own brothers did not believe in him.(E)
6 Therefore Jesus told them, “My time(F) is not yet here; for you any time will do. 7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me(G) because I testify that its works are evil.(H) 8 You go to the festival. I am not[b] going up to this festival, because my time(I) has not yet fully come.” 9 After he had said this, he stayed in Galilee.
10 However, after his brothers had left for the festival, he went also, not publicly, but in secret. 11 Now at the festival the Jewish leaders were watching for Jesus(J) and asking, “Where is he?”
12 Among the crowds there was widespread whispering about him. Some said, “He is a good man.”
Others replied, “No, he deceives the people.”(K) 13 But no one would say anything publicly about him for fear of the leaders.(L)
Jesus Teaches at the Festival
14 Not until halfway through the festival did Jesus go up to the temple courts and begin to teach.(M) 15 The Jews(N) there were amazed and asked, “How did this man get such learning(O) without having been taught?”(P)
16 Jesus answered, “My teaching is not my own. It comes from the one who sent me.(Q) 17 Anyone who chooses to do the will of God will find out(R) whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own. 18 Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory,(S) but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him. 19 Has not Moses given you the law?(T) Yet not one of you keeps the law. Why are you trying to kill me?”(U)
20 “You are demon-possessed,”(V) the crowd answered. “Who is trying to kill you?”
21 Jesus said to them, “I did one miracle,(W) and you are all amazed. 22 Yet, because Moses gave you circumcision(X) (though actually it did not come from Moses, but from the patriarchs),(Y) you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath. 23 Now if a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me for healing a man’s whole body on the Sabbath? 24 Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly.”(Z)
Division Over Who Jesus Is
25 At that point some of the people of Jerusalem began to ask, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill?(AA) 26 Here he is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying a word to him. Have the authorities(AB) really concluded that he is the Messiah?(AC) 27 But we know where this man is from;(AD) when the Messiah comes, no one will know where he is from.”
28 Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts,(AE) cried out, “Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from.(AF) I am not here on my own authority, but he who sent me is true.(AG) You do not know him, 29 but I know him(AH) because I am from him and he sent me.”(AI)
30 At this they tried to seize him, but no one laid a hand on him,(AJ) because his hour had not yet come.(AK) 31 Still, many in the crowd believed in him.(AL) They said, “When the Messiah comes, will he perform more signs(AM) than this man?”
32 The Pharisees heard the crowd whispering such things about him. Then the chief priests and the Pharisees sent temple guards to arrest him.
33 Jesus said, “I am with you for only a short time,(AN) and then I am going to the one who sent me.(AO) 34 You will look for me, but you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come.”(AP)
35 The Jews said to one another, “Where does this man intend to go that we cannot find him? Will he go where our people live scattered(AQ) among the Greeks,(AR) and teach the Greeks? 36 What did he mean when he said, ‘You will look for me, but you will not find me,’ and ‘Where I am, you cannot come’?”(AS)
37 On the last and greatest day of the festival,(AT) Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.(AU) 38 Whoever believes(AV) in me, as Scripture has said,(AW) rivers of living water(AX) will flow from within them.”[c](AY) 39 By this he meant the Spirit,(AZ) whom those who believed in him were later to receive.(BA) Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.(BB)
40 On hearing his words, some of the people said, “Surely this man is the Prophet.”(BC)
41 Others said, “He is the Messiah.”
Still others asked, “How can the Messiah come from Galilee?(BD) 42 Does not Scripture say that the Messiah will come from David’s descendants(BE) and from Bethlehem,(BF) the town where David lived?” 43 Thus the people were divided(BG) because of Jesus. 44 Some wanted to seize him, but no one laid a hand on him.(BH)
Unbelief of the Jewish Leaders
45 Finally the temple guards went back to the chief priests and the Pharisees, who asked them, “Why didn’t you bring him in?”
46 “No one ever spoke the way this man does,”(BI) the guards replied.
47 “You mean he has deceived you also?”(BJ) the Pharisees retorted. 48 “Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him?(BK) 49 No! But this mob that knows nothing of the law—there is a curse on them.”
50 Nicodemus,(BL) who had gone to Jesus earlier and who was one of their own number, asked, 51 “Does our law condemn a man without first hearing him to find out what he has been doing?”
52 They replied, “Are you from Galilee, too? Look into it, and you will find that a prophet does not come out of Galilee.”(BM)
[The earliest manuscripts and many other ancient witnesses do not have John 7:53—8:11. A few manuscripts include these verses, wholly or in part, after John 7:36, John 21:25, Luke 21:38 or Luke 24:53.]
53 Then they all went home,

7 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2 Now the Jew's feast of tabernacles was at hand.
3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.
4 For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.
5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.
6 Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.
7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.
8 Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast: for my time is not yet full come.
9 When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.
10 But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.
11 Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people.
13 Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
14 Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?
16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
19 Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
20 The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee?
21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.
22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.
23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?
24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?
26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
30 Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?
32 The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.
33 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.
34 Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come.
35 Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
36 What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come?
37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.
41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?
42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?
43 So there was a division among the people because of him.
44 And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.
45 Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?
46 The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.
47 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived?
48 Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?
49 But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.
50 Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)
51 Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?
52 They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
53 And every man went unto his own house.
