21 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your u joy may be full. 25 These things have I spoken unto you in 2 proverbs: but the time cometh,when I shall no more speak unto you in 2 proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father. 26 At that day v ye shall ask in my name and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: z ch.8.29. 27 For the Father w himself loveth Is.50.7,9. you, because ye have loved me, and a ch.14.27. have believed that I came out Ro.5.1. from God.

to preserve his apostles. true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

4 Ig have glorified thee on the earth: Ih have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me, with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

6 I

have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy m word.

7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.

8 For I have given unto them the words n which thon gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, o but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.

10 And all mine p are thine, and thine are mine; and I q am glorificd in them.

11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keepr through thine own name s those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture t might be fulfilled.

13 And now come I-to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

14 I have given them thy word, and the world u hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but v that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

17 Sanctify w them through thy truth: thy word z is truth.

18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent

them into the world.

19 Andy for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be 1 sanctified through the truth..

WHEN Jesus had spoken these

words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Ce-] dron, a where was a garden, into. the which he entered, and his disciples.

2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples.

3 Judas b then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees,cometh thither with lanterus and torches and weapons.

4 Jesus therefore, knowing call things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

5 They answered him, Jesus of d Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.

6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they e went backward, and fell to the ground.

7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

10 Then h Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high 3 See ver. 13. priest's servant, and cut off his

Peter's demal. right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cupi which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,

13 And led him away to Annask first; for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.

14 Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

15 And m Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.

16 But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

17 Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.

18 And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.

19 T The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and o in secret have I said nothing.

21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.

22 And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck p Jesus 2 with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?

23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but q if well, why smitest thou me?

24 Now 3 Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.

5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!

6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

7 The Jews answered him, We d have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because e he made himself the Son of God.

8 T When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid; 9 And went again into the judgment-hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But f Jesus gave him no answer.

10 Then saith Pilate unto him,

Speakest thou not unto me? knowest g thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

11 Jesus answered, Thou h couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he k that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Cesar's friend: whosoever m maketh himself a king, speaketh against Cesar.

39 And there came also n Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and o brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound p it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. 42 There q laid they Jesus therefore becauser of the Jews' preparo 2Ch.16.14. ation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand. p Ac.5.6.

He appears to his disciples. where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 20 And when he had so said, he showed unto them his hands and his side. Then v were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. 21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace w be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so z send 1 you. 22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receivey ye the Holy Ghost: 23 Whose soever z sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

24 But Thomas, a one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he b said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

26 T And after eight days, again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace c be unto you.

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands: and reach hither thy hand, d and thrust it into my side: and be e not faithless, but believing.

28 And Thomas aswered and said unto him, My ƒ Lord and my God.
