16 And this was why the Jews were ⁿpersecuting Jesus, ^obecause he was doing these things on the Sabbath. 17 But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.”

18 This was why the Jews were ^pseeking all the more ^qto kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, ^rmaking himself ^sequal with God.

19 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, ^tthe Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For ^uwhatever the Father¹ does, that the Son does likewise. 20 For ^vthe Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing. And ^wgreater works than these will he show him, so that you may ^xmarvel. 21 For as the Father ^yraises the dead and ^zgives them life, so also the Son ^agives life to whom he will. 22 For the Father judges no one, but ^bhas given all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may ^chonor the Son, just as they honor the Father. ^dWhoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and ^ebelieves him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has ^fpassed from death to life.

25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, ^gan hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will ^hhear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. 26 For as the Father has life in himself, ⁱso he has granted the Son also to have life ^jin himself. 27 And he has given him authority to execute judgment, ^kbecause he is the Son of Man. 28 ^lDo not marvel at this, for an hour is coming ^mwhen all who are in the tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, ⁿthose who have done good to the resurrection of ^olife, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.

30 “I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge, and ^pmy judgment is just, because I seek ^qnot my own will but ^rthe will of him who sent me.

14 I am the good shepherd. ^uI know my own and my own know me, 15 just as ^vthe Father knows me and ^wI know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And I have ^xother sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and ^ythey will listen to my voice. So there will be ^zone flock, ^aone shepherd. 17 For this reason ^bthe Father loves me, because I lay down my life ^cthat I may take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This ^dcharge I have received from my Father.”

19 There was again a ^edivision among the Jews because of these words. 20 Many of them said, “He ^fhas a demon, and is ^ginsane; why listen to him?” 21 ^hOthers said, “These are not the words of one who is oppressed by a demon. Can a demon ⁱopen the eyes of the blind?”

22 At that time the Feast of Dedication took place at Jerusalem. It was winter, 23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the ^jcolonnade of Solomon. 24 So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? ^kIf you are the Christ, tell us ^lplainly.” 25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name ^mbear witness about me, 26 but ⁿyou do not believe because you are not among my sheep. 27 My sheep ^ohear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 I ^pgive them eternal life, and they will never perish, and ^qno one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, ^rwho has given them to me,¹ is ^sgreater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand. 30 ^tI and the Father are one.”

9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? ⁱWhoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that ^jI am in the Father and the Father is in me? ^kThe words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, ^lor else believe on account of the works themselves.

12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and ^mgreater works than these will he do, because ⁿI am going to the Father. 13 ^oWhatever you ask in my name, this I will do, ^pthat the Father may be glorified in the Son.
