*
And they celebrated the dedication in Jerusalem ,
and it was winter .
*
And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon '
s porch .
*
Then the Jews came round about him and said unto him ,
Until when wilt thou hold our soul in suspense ?
If thou art the Christ ,
tell us plainly .
*
Jesus answered them ,
I have told you ,
and ye do not believe ;
the works that I do in my Father '
s name ,
they bear witness of me .
*
But ye believe not because ye are not of my sheep ,
as I said unto you .
*
My sheep hear my voice ,
and I know them ,
and they follow me ;
*
and I give unto them eternal life ;
and they shall never perish ,
neither shall anyone pluck them out of my hand .
*
My Father ,
who gave [
them to ]
me ,
is greater than all ;
and no one is able to pluck them out of my Father '
s hand .
*
I and [
my ]
Father are one .
*
Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him .
*
Jesus answered them ,
Many good works have I showed you from my Father ;
for which of those works do ye stone me ?
*
The Jews answered him ,
saying ,
For a good work we do not stone thee ,
but for blasphemy ;
and because thou ,
being a man ,
makest thyself God .
*
Jesus answered them ,
Is it not written in your law ,
I said ,
Ye are gods ?
*
If he called them gods unto whom the word of God came (
and the scripture cannot be broken ),
*
do ye say of him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world ,
Thou blasphemest ,
because I said ,
I am the Son of God ?
*
If I do not do the works of my Father ,
do not believe me .
*
But if I do ,
though ye do not believe me ,
believe the works that ye may know and believe that the Father [
is ]
in me and I in him .
*
Therefore they sought again to take him ,
but he escaped out of their hand
*
and went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized ,
and there he abode .
*
And many came unto him and said ,
John certainly did no sign ,
but all [
the ]
things that John spoke of this man were true .
*
And many believed in him there .:
