Therfor the fadir knewe, that thilke our it was, in which Jhesus seide to hym, Thi sone lyueth; and he bileuede, and al his hous.
Jhesus dide eft this secounde tokene, whanne he cam fro Judee in to Galilee.
Aftir these thingis ther was a feeste dai of Jewis, and Jhesus wente vp to Jerusalem.
And in Jerusalem is a waissynge place, that in Ebrew is named Bethsaida, and hath fyue porchis.
In these lay a greet multitude of sike men, blynde, crokid, and drie, abidynge the mouyng of the watir.
For the aungel `of the Lord cam doun certeyne tymes in to the watir, and the watir was moued; and he that first cam doun in to the sisterne, aftir the mouynge of the watir, was maad hool of what euer sijknesse he was holdun.
And a man was there, hauynge eiyte and thritti yeer in his sikenesse.
And whanne Jhesus hadde seyn hym liggynge, and hadde knowun, that he hadde myche tyme, he seith to hym, Wolt thou be maad hool?
The sijk man answerde to hym, Lord, Y haue no man, that whanne the watir is moued, to putte me `in to the cisterne; for the while Y come, anothir goith doun bifor me.
Jhesus seith to hym, Rise vp, take thi bed, and go.
And anoon the man was maad hool, and took vp his bed, and wente forth. And it was sabat in that dai.
Therfor the Jewis seiden to him that was maad hool, It is sabat, it is not leueful to thee, to take awei thi bed.
He answeride to hem, He that made me hool, seide to me, Take thi bed, and go.
Therfor thei axiden him, What man `is that, that seide to thee, Take vp thi bed, and go?
But he that was maad hool, wiste not who it was. And Jhesus bowide awei fro the puple, that was set in the place.
Aftirward Jhesus foond hym in the temple, and seide to hym, Lo! thou art maad hool; now nyle thou do synne, lest any worse thing bifalle to thee.
Thilke man wente, and telde to the Jewis, that it was Jhesu that made hym hool.
Therfor the Jewis pursueden Jhesu, for he dide this thing in the sabat.
And Jhesus answeride to hem, My fadir worchith til now, and Y worche.
Therfor the Jewis souyten more to sle hym, for not oneli he brak the sabat, but he seide that God was his fadir, and made hym euene to God.
Therfor Jhesus answerde, and seide to hem, Treuli, treuli, Y seye to you, the sone may not of hym silf do ony thing, but that thing that he seeth the fadir doynge; for what euere thingis he doith, the sone doith in lijk maner tho thingis.
For the fadir loueth the sone, and schewith to hym alle thingis that he doith; and he schal schewe to hym grettere werkis than these, that ye wondren.
For as the fadir reisith deed men, and quykeneth, so the sone quykeneth whom he wole.
For nethir the fadir iugith ony man, but hath youun ech doom to the sone,
that alle men onoure the sone, as thei onouren the fadir. He that onourith not the sone, onourith not the fadir that sente hym.
Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, that he that herith my word, and bileueth to hym that sente me, hath euerlastynge lijf, and he cometh not in to doom, but passith fro deeth in to lijf.
Treuli, treuli Y seie to you, for the our cometh, and now it is, whanne deed men schulen here the vois of `Goddis sone, and thei that heren, schulen lyue.
For as the fadir hath lijf in hym silf, so he yaf to the sone, to haue lijf in him silf;
and he yaf to hym power to make doom, for he is mannys sone.
Nyle ye wondre this, for the our cometh, in which alle men that ben in birielis, schulen here the voice of Goddis sone.
And thei that han do goode thingis, schulen go in to ayenrisyng of lijf; but thei that han done yuele thingis, in to ayenrisyng of doom.
Y may no thing do of my silf, but as Y here, Y deme, and my doom is iust, for Y seke not my wille, but the wille of the fadir that sente me.
If Y bere witnessing of my silf, my witnessyng is not trewe;
another is that berith witnessyng of me, and Y woot that his witnessyng is trewe, that he berith of me.
Ye senten to Joon, and he bar witnessyng to treuthe.
But Y take not witnessyng of man; but Y seie these thingis, that ye be saaf.
He was a lanterne brennynge and schynynge; but ye wolden glade at an our in his liyt.
But Y haue more witnessyng than Joon, for the werkis that my fadir yaf to me to perfourme hem, thilke werkis that Y do beren witnessyng of me, that the fadir sente me.
And the fadir that sente me, he bar witnessyng of me. Nether ye herden euere his vois, nether ye seien his licnesse.
And ye han not his word dwellynge in you; for ye byleuen not to hym, whom he sente.
Seke ye scripturis, in which ye gessen to haue euerlastynge lijf; and tho it ben, that beren witnessyng of me.
And ye wolen not come to me, that ye haue lijf.
Y take not clerenesse of men;
but Y haue knowun you, that ye han not the loue of God in you.
Y cam in the name of my fadir, and ye token not me. If another come in his owne name, ye schulen resseyue hym.
Hou moun ye bileue, that resseyuen glorie ech of othere, and ye seken not the glorie `that is of God aloone?
Nyle ye gesse, that Y am to accuse you anentis the fadir; it is Moises that accusith you, in whom ye hopen.
For if ye bileueden to Moises, perauenture ye schulden bileue also to me; for he wroot of me.
But if ye bileuen not to hise lettris, hou schulen ye bileue to my wordis?
Aftir these thingis Jhesus wente ouere the see of Galilee, that is Tiberias.
And a greet multitude suede hym; for thei sayn the tokenes, that he dide on hem that weren sijke.
Therfor Jhesus wente in to an hil, and sat there with hise disciplis.
And the paske was ful niy, a feeste dai of the Jewis.
Therfor whanne Jhesus hadde lift vp hise iyen, and hadde seyn, that a greet multitude cam to hym, he seith to Filip, Wherof schulen we bie looues, that these men ete?
But he seide this thing, temptynge hym; for he wiste what he was to do.
Filip answerde to hym, The looues of tweyn hundrid pans sufficen not to hem, that ech man take a litil what.
Oon of hise disciplis, Andrew, the brothir of Symount Petre,
seith to him, A child is here, that hath fyue barli looues and twei fischis; but what ben these among so manye?
Therfor Jhesus seith, Make ye hem sitte to the mete. And there was myche hey in the place. And so men saten to the mete, as `fyue thousynde in noumbre.
And Jhesus took fyue looues, and whanne he hadde do thankyngis, he departide to men that saten to the mete, and also of the fischis, as myche as thei wolden.
And whanne thei weren fillid, he seide to hise disciplis, Gadir ye the relifs that ben left, that thei perischen not.
And so thei gadriden, and filliden twelue cofyns of relif of the fyue barli looues and twei fischis, that lefte to hem that hadden etun.
Therfor tho men, whanne thei hadden seyn the signe that he hadde don, seiden, For this is verili the profete, that is to come in to the world.
And whanne Jhesus hadde knowun, that thei weren to come to take hym, and make hym kyng, he fleiy `aloone eft in to an hille.
And whanne euentid was comun, his disciplis wenten doun to the see.
And thei wenten vp in to a boot, and thei camen ouer the see in to Cafarnaum. And derknessis weren maad thanne, and Jhesus was not come to hem.
And for a greet wynde blew, the see roos vp.
Therfor whanne thei hadden rowid as fyue and twenti furlongis or thretti, thei seen Jhesus walkynge on the see, and to be neiy the boot; and thei dredden.
And he seide to hem, Y am; nyle ye drede.
Therfor thei wolden take hym in to the boot, and anoon the boot was at the loond, to which thei wenten.
On `the tother dai the puple, that stood ouer the see, say, that ther was noon other boot there but oon, and that Jhesu entride not with hise disciplis in to the boot, but hise disciplis aloone wenten.
But othere bootis camen fro Tiberias bisidis the place, where thei hadden eetun breed, and diden thankyngis to God.
Therfor whanne the puple hadde seyn, that Jhesu was not there, nether hise disciplis, thei wenten vp in to bootis, and camen to Cafarnaum, sekynge Jhesu.
And whanne thei hadden foundun hym ouer the see, thei seiden to hym, Rabi, hou come thou hidur?
Jhesus answerde to hem, and seide, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, ye seken me, not for ye sayn the myraclis, but for ye eten of looues, and weren fillid.
Worche ye not mete that perischith, but that dwellith in to euerlastynge lijf, which mete mannys sone schal yyue to you; for God the fadir hath markid hym.
Therfor thei seiden to hym, What schulen we do, that we worche the werkis of God?
Jhesus answerde, and seide to hem, This is the werk of God, that ye bileue to hym, whom he sente.
Therfor thei seiden to hym, What tokene thanne doist thou, that we seen, and bileue to thee? what worchist thou?
Oure fadris eeten manna in desert, as it is writun, He yaf to hem breed fro heuene to ete.
Therfor Jhesus seith to hem, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, Moyses yaf you not breed fro heuene, but my fadir yyueth you veri breed fro heuene;
for it is very breed that cometh doun fro heuene, and yyueth lijf to the world.
Therfor thei seiden to hym, Lord, euere yyue vs this breed.
And Jhesus seide to hem, Y am breed of lijf; he that cometh to me, schal not hungur; he that bileueth in me, schal neuere thirste.
But Y seid to you, that ye han seyn me, and ye bileueden not.
Al thing, that the fadir yyueth to me, schal come to me; and Y schal not caste hym out, that cometh to me.
For Y cam doun fro heuene, not that Y do my wille, but the wille of hym that sente me.
And this is the wille of the fadir that sente me, that al thing that the fadir yaf me, Y leese not of it, but ayen reise it in the laste dai.
And this is the wille of my fadir that sente me, that ech man that seeth the sone, and bileueth in hym, haue euerlastynge lijf; and Y schal ayen reyse hym in the laste dai.
Therfor Jewis grutchiden of hym, for he hadde seid, Y am breed that cam doun fro heuene.
And thei seiden, Whether this is not Jhesus, the sone of Joseph, whos fadir and modir we han knowun. Hou thanne seith this, That Y cam doun fro heuene?
Therfor Jhesus answerde, and seide to hem, Nyle ye grutche togidere.
No man may come to me, but if the fadir that sente me, drawe hym; and Y schal ayen reise hym in the laste dai. It is writun in prophetis,
And alle men schulen be able for to be tauyt `of God. Ech man that herde of the fadir, and hath lerned, cometh to me.
Not for ony man hath sey the fadir, but this that is of God, hath sey the fadir.
Sotheli, sotheli, Y seie to you, he that bileueth in me, hath euerlastynge lijf.
Y am breed of lijf.
Youre fadris eeten manna in desert, and ben deed.
This is breed comynge doun fro heuene, that if ony man ete therof, he die not.
Y am lyuynge breed, that cam doun fro heuene.
