St John 7:21-35 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

21. Jesus answered, and said to them: One work I have done; and you all wonder:

22. Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man.

23. If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day?

24. Judge not according to the appearance, but judge just judgment.

25. Some therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

26. And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers known for a truth, that this is the Christ?

27. But we know this man, whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

28. Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching, and saying: You both know me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself; but he that sent me, is true, whom you know not.

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

30. They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

31. But of the people many believed in him, and said: When the Christ cometh, shall he do more miracles, than these which this man doth?

32. The Pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning him: and the rulers and Pharisees sent ministers to apprehend him.

33. Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me.

34. You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither you cannot come.

35. The Jews therefore said among themselves: Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
