John 7:1–18

And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him. ²Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand. ³His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest. ⁴For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world. ⁵For even his brethren did not believe on him. ⁶Jesus therefore saith unto them, My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready. ⁷The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its works are evil. ⁸Go ye up unto the feast: I go not up unto this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled. ⁹And having said these things unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

¹⁰But when his brethren were gone up unto the feast, then went he also up, not publicly, but as it were in secret. ¹¹The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he? ¹²And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him: some said, He is a good man; others said, Not so, but he leadeth the multitude astray. ¹³Yet no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. ¹⁵The Jews therefore marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? ¹⁶Jesus therefore answered them and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that sent me. ¹⁷If any man willeth to do his will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from myself. ¹⁸He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
