John 7:14-25

English Standard Version

¹⁴About the middle of the feast Jesus went up ^(A)into the temple and began teaching. ¹⁵The Jews therefore ^(B)marveled, saying, “How is it that this man has learning,^[a] when he has never studied?” ¹⁶So Jesus answered them, ^(C)“My teaching is not mine, but his ^(D)who sent me. ¹⁷^(E)If anyone's will is to do God's^[b] will, ^(F)he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I ^(G)am speaking on my own authority. ¹⁸The one who speaks on his own authority ^(H)seeks his own glory; but the one who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and in him there is no falsehood. ¹⁹^(I)Has not Moses given you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. ^(J)Why do you seek to kill me?” ²⁰The crowd answered, ^(K)“You have a demon! Who is seeking to kill you?” ²¹Jesus answered them, “I did ^(L)one work, and you all marvel at it. ²²^(M)Moses gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but ^(N)from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath. ²³If on the Sabbath a man receives circumcision, so that the law of Moses may not be broken, ^(O)are you angry with me because on the Sabbath I made a man's whole body well? ²⁴^(P)Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.”
