32 The Pharisees heard the crowd muttering these things about him, and the chief priests and Pharisees sent officers to arrest him. 33 Jesus then said, “I will be with you ^aa little longer, and then I am ^bgoing to him who sent me. 34 ^cYou will seek me and you will not find me. Where I am you cannot come.” 35 The Jews said to one another, “Where does this man intend to go that we will not find him? ^dDoes he intend to go to ^ethe Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks? 36 What does he mean ^fby saying, ‘You will seek me and you will not find me,’ and, ‘Where I am you cannot come’?”

37 ^gOn the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, ^h“If anyone thirsts, let him ⁱcome to me and drink. 38 Whoever ^jbelieves in me, as¹ the Scripture has said, ^k‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of ^lliving water.’” 39 Now this he said about the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were ^mto receive, for as yet the Spirit had not been given, ⁿbecause Jesus was not yet ^oglorified.

40 When they heard these words, some of the people said, ^p“This really is ^qthe Prophet.” 41 Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, ^r“Is the Christ to come from Galilee? 42 ^sHas not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the ^toffspring of David, and comes ^ufrom Bethlehem, ^vthe village where David was?” 43 So there was a ^wdivision among the people over him. 44 Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him.

45 The officers then came to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, “Why did you not bring him?” 46 The officers answered, ^x“No one ever spoke like this man!” 47 The Pharisees answered them, “Have you also been ^ydeceived? 48 ^zHave any of the authorities or the Pharisees believed in him? 49 But this crowd that does not know the law is accursed.” 50 Nicodemus, ^awho had gone to him before, and who was one of them, said to them, 51 “Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he does?” 52 They replied, “Are you from Galilee too? Search and see that no prophet arises from Galilee.”
