John 7:42-49 American Standard Version (ASV)

42. Hath not the scripture said that the Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?

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

44. And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.

45. The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why did ye not bring him?

46. The officers answered, Never a man so spake.

47. The Pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also led astray?

48. Hath any of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees?

49. But this multitude that knoweth not the law are accursed.
