John 7:1-9
New American Standard Bible
Jesus Teaches at the Feast
7 After these things Jesus (A)was walking in Galilee, for He was unwilling to walk in Judea because (B)the Jews (C)were seeking to kill Him. 2 Now the feast of the Jews, (D)the Feast of Booths, was near. 3 So His (E)brothers said to Him, “Move on from here and go into Judea, so that Your (F)disciples also may see Your works which You are doing. 4 For no one does anything in secret [a]when he himself is striving to be known publicly. If You are doing these things, show Yourself to the world.” 5 For not even His (G)brothers believed in Him. 6 So Jesus *said to them, “(H)My time is not yet here, but your time is always ready. 7 (I)The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify about it, that (J)its deeds are evil. 8 Go up to the feast yourselves; I am not going up to this feast, because (K)My time has not yet fully arrived.” 9 Now having said these things to them, He stayed in Galilee.

If You are doing these things, make Yourself known[b] to the world”. 5 (For not even His brothers were believing in Him). 6 So Jesus says to them, “My time[c] is not yet here, but your time is always ready. 7 The world cannot hate you, but it is hating Me because I am testifying about it that its works are evil. 8 You go up to the Feast. I am not going up to this Feast, because My time has not yet been fulfilled”. 9 And having said these things, He remained in Galilee.
