John 10:31–42

³¹Then^g the Jews picked up stones again so that they could stone him. ³²Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good deeds from the Father. For which one of them are you going to stone me?” ³³The Jews answered him, “We are not going to stone you concerning a good deed, but concerning blasphemy, and because you, although you^* are a man, make yourself to be God!” ³⁴Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, “You are gods” ’?^{h 35}If he called them ‘gods’ to whom the word of God came—and the scripture cannot be broken—³⁶do you say about he whom the Father set apart and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’? ³⁷If I do not do the deeds of my Father, do not believe me. ³⁸But if I am doing them,^* even if you do not believe me, believe the deeds, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.” ³⁹So they were seeking again to seize him, and he departed out of their hand.

⁴⁰And he went away again on the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John was baptizing at an earlier time, and he stayed there. ⁴¹And many came to him and began to say,^* “John performed no sign, but everything John said about this man was true!” ⁴²And many believed in him there.
