¹ܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܗܠܟ ܗܘܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܓܠܝܠܐ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܨܒܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܗܠܟܘ ܒܝܗܘܕ ܡܛܠ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܡܩܛܠܗ ܀

¹After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

²ܘܩܪܝܒ ܗܘܐ ܥܕܥܕܐ ܕܡܛܠܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܀

²Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.

³ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܗ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܫܢܐ ܠܟ ܡܟܐ ܘܙܠ ܠܝܗܘܕ ܕܢܚܙܘܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܝܟ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܀

³His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here, and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.

⁴ܠܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܐܢܫ ܕܥܒܕ ܡܕܡ ܒܛܘܫܝܐ ܘܨܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܓܠܝܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܐܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܚܘܐ ܢܦܫܟ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܀

⁴For no one does anything in secret, and himself seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”

⁵ܐܦ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܗܘܘ ܒܗ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܀

⁵For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

⁶ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܙܒܢܝ ܕܝܠܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܗܫܐ ܠܐ ܡܛܐ ܙܒܢܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܒܟܠ ܥܕܢ ܡܛܝܒ ܀

⁶Jesus therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

⁷ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܥܠܡܐ ܠܡܤܢܟܘܢ ܠܝ ܕܝܢ ܤܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܢܐ ܡܤܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܒܝܫܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܀

⁷ The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

⁸ܐܢܬܘܢ ܤܩܘ ܠܥܕܥܕܐ ܗܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܤܠܩ ܐܢܐ ܗܫܐ ܠܥܕܥܕܐ ܗܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܙܒܢܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܠܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܫܠܡ ܀

⁸ You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

⁹ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܘܦܫ ܠܗ ܒܓܠܝܠܐ ܀

⁹Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

¹⁰ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܤܠܩܘ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܠܥܕܥܕܐ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܗܘ ܤܠܩ ܠܐ ܒܓܠܝܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܛܘܫܝܐ ܀

¹⁰But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.

¹¹ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܒܥܕܥܕܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܐܝܟܘ ܗܘ ܀

¹¹The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”

¹²ܘܪܛܢܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܛܠܬܗ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܟܢܫܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܛܒ ܗܘ ܘܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܛܥܐ ܠܥܡܐ ܀

¹²There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”

¹³ܠܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܢܫ ܓܠܝܐܝܬ ܡܡܠܠ ܗܘܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܚܠܬܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܀

¹³Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܦܠܓܘ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܕܥܕܥܕܐ ܤܠܩ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܡܠܦ ܗܘܐ ܀

¹⁴But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

¹⁵ܘܡܬܕܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܝܕܥ ܗܢܐ ܤܦܪܐ ܟܕ ܠܐ ܝܠܦ ܀

¹⁵The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”

¹⁶ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܝܘܠܦܢܝ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܐܠܐ ܕܗܘ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܀

¹⁶Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

¹⁷ܡܢ ܕܨܒܐ ܕܢܥܒܕ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܡܤܬܟܠ ܝܘܠܦܢܝ ܐܢ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܐܘ ܐܢܐ ܡܢ ܨܒܘܬ ܢܦܫܝ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܀

¹⁷ If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.

¹⁸ܡܢ ܕܡܢ ܨܒܘܬ ܪܥܝܢܗ ܡܡܠܠ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܠܢܦܫܗ ܒܥܐ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܕܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܗ ܒܥܐ ܫܪܝܪ ܗܘ ܘܥܘܠܐ ܒܠܒܗ ܠܐ ܐܝܬ ܀

¹⁸ He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܘܫܐ ܝܗܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܢܛܪ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܀

¹⁹ Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”

²⁰ܡܢܐ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܩܛܠܢܝ ܥܢܐ ܟܢܫܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܝܘܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟ ܡܢܘ ܒܥܐ ܠܡܩܛܠܟ ܀

²⁰The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”

²¹ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܕ ܥܒܕܐ ܥܒܕܬ ܘܟܠܟܘܢ ܡܬܕܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀

²¹Jesus answered them, “I did one work, and you all marvel because of it.

²²ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܡܘܫܐ ܝܗܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܓܙܘܪܬܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܢܗ ܗܝ ܡܢ ܡܘܫܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܡܢ ܐܒܗܬܐ ܗܝ ܘܒܫܒܬܐ ܓܙܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܀

²² Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

²³ܐܢ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܡܬܓܙܪ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܢܫܬܪܐ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܕܡܘܫܐ ܥܠܝ ܪܛܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܟܠܗ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܚܠܡܬ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܀

²³ If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?

²⁴ܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܕܝܢܝܢ ܒܡܤܒ ܒܐܦܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܝܢܐ ܟܐܢܐ ܕܘܢܘ ܀

²⁴ Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”

²⁵ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܐܢܫܐ ܡܢ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܠܘ ܗܢܘ ܗܘ ܕܒܥܝܢ ܠܡܩܛܠ ܀

²⁵Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?

²⁶ܘܗܐ ܓܠܝܐܝܬ ܡܡܠܠ ܘܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܕܠܡܐ ܝܕܥܘ ܩܫܝܫܝܢ ܕܗܢܘ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

²⁶Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?

²⁷ܐܠܐ ܠܗܢܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܡܢ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܗܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܬܝ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܝܕܥ ܡܢ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܗܘ ܀

²⁷However we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

²⁸ܘܐܪܝܡ ܝܫܘܥ ܩܠܗ ܟܕ ܡܠܦ ܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܘܠܝ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܡܢ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܐܢܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܡܢ ܨܒܘܬ ܢܦܫܝ ܠܐ ܐܬܝܬ ܐܠܐ ܫܪܝܪ ܗܘ ܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܗܘ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܗ ܀

²⁸Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.

²⁹ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܕܡܢ ܠܘܬܗ ܐܢܐ ܘܗܘ ܫܕܪܢܝ ܀

²⁹ I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.”

³⁰ܘܒܥܘ ܠܡܐܚܕܗ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܐܪܡܝ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܐܝܕܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܐܬܬ ܗܘܬ ܫܥܬܗ ܀

³⁰They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.

³¹ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܟܢܫܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܗ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܡܐ ܕܝܬܝܪܢ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܬܘܬܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܗܢܐ ܥܒܕ ܀

³¹But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”

³²ܘܫܡܥܘ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܠܟܢܫܐ ܕܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܗܠܝܢ ܘܫܕܪܘ ܗܢܘܢ ܘܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܕܚܫܐ ܕܢܐܚܕܘܢܝܗܝ ܀

³²The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.

³³ܘܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܩܠܝܠ ܬܘܒ ܙܒܢܐ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬ ܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܀

³³Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.

³⁴ܘܬܒܥܘܢܢܝ ܘܠܐ ܬܫܟܚܘܢܢܝ ܘܐܝܟܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܝܬܝ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܐܬܐ ܀

³⁴ You will seek me, and won’t find me; and where I am, you can’t come.”

³⁵ܐܡܪܝܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܒܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܠܐܝܟܐ ܥܬܝܕ ܗܢܐ ܠܡܐܙܠ ܕܚܢܢ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܠܗ ܠܡܐ ܟܝ ܠܐܬܪܘܬܐ ܕܥܡܡܐ ܥܬܝܕ ܕܢܐܙܠ ܘܢܠܦ ܠܚܢܦܐ ܀

³⁵The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

³⁶ܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܗܕܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܬܒܥܘܢܢܝ ܘܠܐ ܬܫܟܚܘܢܢܝ ܘܐܝܟܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܝܬܝ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܐܬܐ ܀

³⁶What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me; and where I am, you can’t come’? ”

³⁷ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܝܢ ܪܒܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܐܚܪܝܐ ܕܥܕܥܕܐ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܩܥܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܨܗܐ ܢܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܝ ܘܢܫܬܐ ܀

³⁷Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!

³⁸ܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢ ܒܝ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܡܪܘ ܟܬܒܐ ܢܗܪܘܬܐ ܕܡܝܐ ܚܝܐ ܢܪܕܘܢ ܡܢ ܟܪܤܗ ܀

³⁸ He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water.”

³⁹ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܥܠ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܥܬܝܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܡܩܒܠܘ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܒܗ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܗܘܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܐܫܬܒܚ ܗܘܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܀

³⁹But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.

⁴⁰ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܟܢܫܐ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܡܠܘܗܝ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܗܢܘ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܢܒܝܐ ܀

⁴⁰Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, “This is truly the prophet.”

⁴¹ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܗܢܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܠܡܐ ܡܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܐܬܐ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

⁴¹Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “What, does the Christ come out of Galilee?

⁴²ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܟܬܒܐ ܐܡܪ ܕܡܢ ܙܪܥܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܘܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܠܚܡ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܐܬܐ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

⁴²Hasn’t the Scripture said that the Christ comes of the seed of David, 2 Samuel 7:12 and from Bethlehem, Micah 5:2 the village where David was?”

⁴³ܘܗܘܬ ܗܘܬ ܦܠܓܘܬܐ ܒܟܢܫܐ ܡܛܠܬܗ ܀

⁴³So there arose a division in the multitude because of him.

⁴⁴ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܘ ܐܢܫܝܢ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܕܨܒܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܢܐܚܕܘܢܝܗܝ ܐܠܐ ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܐܪܡܝ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܐܝܕܝܐ ܀

⁴⁴Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.

⁴⁵ܘܐܬܘ ܕܚܫܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܗܢܐ ܠܡܢܐ ܠܐ ܐܝܬܝܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܀

⁴⁵The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why didn’t you bring him?”

⁴⁶ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܚܫܐ ܠܐ ܡܡܬܘܡ ܗܟܢܐ ܡܠܠ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܡܠܠ ܓܒܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܀

⁴⁶The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”

⁴⁷ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܠܡܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܛܥܝܬܘܢ ܀

⁴⁷The Pharisees therefore answered them, “You aren’t also led astray, are you?

⁴⁸ܠܡܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܢ ܪܫܐ ܐܘ ܡܢ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܗ ܀

⁴⁸Have any of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees?

⁴⁹ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܥܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܠܝܛܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܀

⁴⁹But this multitude that doesn’t know the law is accursed.”

⁵⁰ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܢܝܩܕܡܘܤ ܚܕ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܠܠܝܐ ܀

⁵⁰Nicodemus (he who came to him by night, being one of them) said to them,

⁵¹ܕܠܡܐ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܕܝܠܢ ܡܚܝܒ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܢܫܡܥ ܡܢܗ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܘܢܕܥ ܡܢܐ ܥܒܕ ܀

⁵¹“Does our law judge a man, unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?”

⁵²ܥܢܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܡܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܐܢܬ ܒܨܝ ܘܚܙܝ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܡܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܠܐ ܩܐܡ ܀

⁵²They answered him, “Are you also from Galilee? Search, and see that no prophet has arisen out of Galilee. See Isaiah 9:1 and Matthew 4:13-16. ”

⁵³ܐܙܠ ܗܟܝܠ ܟܠܚܕ ܠܒܝܬܗ ܀

⁵³Everyone went to his own house,
