John 7:45-52

New American Standard Bible

⁴⁵ The ^(A)officers then came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why did you not bring Him?” ⁴⁶ The ^(B)officers answered, “^(C)Never has a man spoken in this way!” ⁴⁷ The Pharisees then replied to them, “^(D)You have not been led astray too, have you? ^48 (E)Not one of ^(F)the rulers or Pharisees has believed in Him, has he? ⁴⁹ But this crowd that does not know the Law is accursed!” ^50 (G)Nicodemus (the one who came to Him before, being one of them) *said to them, ⁵¹ “^(H)Our Law does not judge the person unless it first hears from him and knows what he is doing, does it?” ⁵² They answered and said to him, “^(I)You are not from Galilee as well, are you? Examine the Scriptures, and see that no prophet arises out of Galilee.”
