John 7:1-13 ▼

1 After that wente Iesus aboute in Galile, for he wolde not go aboute in Iewry, because the Iewes sought to kyll him.

2 But the Iewes feast of Tabernacles was at hande.

3 Then sayde his brethren vnto him: Get the hece, and go into Iewry, that thy disciples also maye se thy workes, that thou doest.

4 He that seketh to be openly knowne, doth nothinge in secrete. Yf thou do soch thinges, the shewe yi self before the worlde:

5 For his awne brethren also beleued not in him.

6 Then sayde Iesus vnto them: My tyme is not yet come, but youre tyme is allwaye ready.

7 The worlde can not hate you, but me it hateth: because I testifye of it, that the workes of it are euell.

8 Go ye vp vnto this feast, I wyll not go vp yet vnto this feast, for my tyme is not yet fulfylled.

9 Whan he sayde this vnto them, he abode styll in Galile.

10 But as soone as his brethren were gone vp, then wente he vp also vnto the feast, not openly, but as it were secretly.

11 Then sought him ye Iewes at ye feast, and sayde: Where is he?

12 And there was a greate murmur of him amonge the people. Some sayde: He is good. But other sayde: No, he doth but disceaue the people.

13 Howbeit no man spake frely of him, for feare of the Iewes.
