¹⁴But beholde, I wil raise vp against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD, the God of hostes, and they shall afflict you from the entring in of Hemath, vnto the ^‖riuer of the wildernesse.

²Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.

^2*Now the Iewes feast of Tabernacles was at hand.

²⁷Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

²⁸Then 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.

²⁹But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.

³⁰Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

³¹And 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.

³³Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.

³⁴Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come.

³⁵Then 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?

³⁶What 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?

³⁷In 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.

³⁸He 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.)

²⁷Howbeit wee know this man whence he is: but when Christ commeth, no man knoweth whence he is.

²⁸Then cried Iesus in the Temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am, and I am not come of my selfe, but he that sent me, is true, whom ye know not.

²⁹But I know him, for I am from him, and he hath sent me.

³⁰Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his houre was not yet come.

³¹And many of the people beleeued on him, & said, When Christ commeth, will hee doe moe miracles then these which this man hath done?

³²¶ The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him: And the Pharisees and the chiefe Priests sent officers to take him.

³³Then said Iesus vnto them, Yet a litle while am I with you, and then I goe vnto him that sent me.

^34*Ye shall seeke me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither yee cannot come.

³⁵Then saide the Iewes among themselues, Whither will hee goe, that we shall not find him? will he goe vnto the dispersed among the ^‖Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?

³⁶What maner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seeke 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, Iesus stood, and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come vnto me, and drinke.

^38*He that beleeueth on me, as the Scripture hath saide, out of his belly shall flow riuers of liuing water.

^39*(But this spake he of the Spirit which they that beleeue on him, should receiue. For the holy Ghost was not yet giuen, because that Iesus was not yet glorified.)
