18	Ἀπεκρίθησαν οὖν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ Τί σημεῖον δεικνύεις ἡμῖν ὅτι ταῦτα ποιεῖς	So the Jews said to him, “What sign do you show us for doing these things?”	The Jews then responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?”
19	Ἀπεκρίθη Ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Λύσατε τὸν ναὸν τοῦτον καὶ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις ἐγερῶ αὐτόν	Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”	Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”
20	Εἶπαν οὖν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι Τεσσεράκοντα καὶ ἓξ ἔτεσιν οἰκοδομήθη ὁ ναὸς οὗτος καὶ σὺ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις ἐγερεῖς αὐτόν	The Jews then said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?”	They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?”
21	Ἐκεῖνος δὲ ἔλεγεν περὶ τοῦ ναοῦ τοῦ σώματος αὐτοῦ	But he was speaking about the temple of his body.	But the temple he had spoken of was his body.
22	ὅτε οὖν ἠγέρθη ἐκ νεκρῶν ἐμνήσθησαν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ὅτι τοῦτο ἔλεγεν καὶ ἐπίστευσαν τῇ γραφῇ καὶ τῷ λόγῳ ὃν εἶπεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς	When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.	After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.
23	Ὡς δὲ ἦν ἐν τοῖς Ἱεροσολύμοις ἐν τῷ πάσχα ἐν τῇ ἑορτῇ πολλοὶ ἐπίστευσαν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ θεωροῦντες αὐτοῦ τὰ σημεῖα ἃ ἐποίει	Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs that he was doing.	Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name.
24	αὐτὸς δὲ Ἰησοῦς οὐκ ἐπίστευεν αὑτὸν αὐτοῖς διὰ τὸ αὐτὸν γινώσκειν πάντας	But Jesus on his part did not entrust himself to them, because he knew all people	But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people.
25	καὶ ὅτι οὐ χρείαν εἶχεν ἵνα τις μαρτυρήσῃ περὶ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου αὐτὸς γὰρ ἐγίνωσκεν τί ἦν ἐν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ	and needed no one to bear witness about man, for he himself knew what was in man.	He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person.
