²Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer?

^44*How can ye beleeue, which receiue honour one of another, & seeke not the honour that commeth from God onely?

²⁵Iesus answered them, I told you, and ye beleeued not: the workes that I doe in my Fathers name, they beare witnesse of me.

⁴And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.

⁵So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
