John 7:3-18 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

3. His brethren therefore said to him, Remove hence and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest;

4. for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be known in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world:

5. for neither did his brethren believe on him.

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

7. The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.

8. Ye, go ye up to this feast. I go not up to this feast, for my time is not yet fulfilled.

9. Having said these things to them he abode in Galilee.

10. But when his brethren had gone up, then he himself also went up to the feast, not openly, but as in secret.

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

12. And there was much murmuring concerning him among the crowds. Some said, He is a good man; others said, No; but he deceives the crowd.

13. However, no one spoke openly concerning him on account of their fear of the Jews.

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

15. The Jews therefore wondered, saying, How knows this man letters, having never learned?

16. Jesus therefore answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but that of him that has sent me.

17. If any one desire to practise his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is of God, or that I speak from myself.

18. He that speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but he that seeks the glory of him that has sent him, he is true, and unrighteousness is not in him.
