WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 και περιεπατει ο ιησουσ μετα ταυτα εν τη γαλιλαια ου γαρ ηθελεν εν τη ιουδαια περιπατειν οτι εζητουν αυτον οι ιουδαιοι αποκτειναι
1 Y PASADAS estas cosas andaba Jesús en Galilea: que no quería andar en Judea, porque los Judíos procuraban matarle.
1 After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2 ην δε εγγυσ η εορτη των ιουδαιων η σκηνοπηγια
2 Y estaba cerca la fiesta de los Judíos, [la] de los tabernáculos.
2 Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.
3 ειπον ουν προσ αυτον οι αδελφοι αυτου μεταβηθι εντευθεν και υπαγε εισ την ιουδαιαν ινα και οι μαθηται σου θεωρησωσιν τα εργα σου α ποιεισ
3 Y dijéronle sus hermanos: Pásate de aquí, y vete á Judea, para que también tus discípulos vean las obras que haces.
3 His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.
4 ουδεισ γαρ εν κρυπτω τι ποιει και ζητει αυτοσ εν παρρησια ειναι ει ταυτα ποιεισ φανερωσον σεαυτον τω κοσμω
4 Que ninguno que procura ser claro, hace algo en oculto. Si estas cosas haces, manifiéstate al mundo.
4 For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”
5 ουδε γαρ οι αδελφοι αυτου επιστευον εισ αυτον
5 Porque ni aun sus hermanos creían en él.
5 For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.
6 λεγει ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ο καιροσ ο εμοσ ουπω παρεστιν ο δε καιροσ ο υμετεροσ παντοτε εστιν ετοιμοσ
6 Díceles entonces Jesús: Mi tiempo aun no ha venido; mas vuestro tiempo siempre está presto.
6 Jesus therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.
7 ου δυναται ο κοσμοσ μισειν υμασ εμε δε μισει οτι εγω μαρτυρω περι αυτου οτι τα εργα αυτου πονηρα εστιν
7 No puede el mundo aborreceros á vosotros; mas á mí me aborrece, porque yo doy testimonio de él, que sus obras son malas.
7 The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.
8 υμεισ αναβητε εισ την εορτην ταυτην εγω ουπω αναβαινω εισ την εορτην ταυτην οτι ο καιροσ ο εμοσ ουπω πεπληρωται
8 Vosotros subid á esta fiesta; yo no subo aún á esta fiesta, porque mi tiempo aun no es cumplido.
8 You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”
9 ταυτα δε ειπων αυτοισ εμεινεν εν τη γαλιλαια
9 Y habiéndoles dicho esto, quedóse en Galilea.
9 Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.
10 ωσ δε ανεβησαν οι αδελφοι αυτου τοτε και αυτοσ ανεβη εισ την εορτην ου φανερωσ αλλ ωσ εν κρυπτω
10 Mas como sus hermanos hubieron subido, entonces él también subió á la fiesta, no manifiestamente, sino como en secreto.
10 But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.
11 οι ουν ιουδαιοι εζητουν αυτον εν τη εορτη και ελεγον που εστιν εκεινοσ
11 Y buscábanle los Judíos en la fiesta, y decían: ¿Dónde está aquél?
11 The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”
12 και γογγυσμοσ πολυσ περι αυτου ην εν τοισ οχλοισ οι μεν ελεγον οτι αγαθοσ εστιν αλλοι ελεγον ου αλλα πλανα τον οχλον
12 Y había grande murmullo de él entre la gente: porque unos decían: Bueno es; y otros decían: No, antes engaña á las gentes.
12 There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”
13 ουδεισ μεντοι παρρησια ελαλει περι αυτου δια τον φοβον των ιουδαιων
13 Mas ninguno hablaba abiertamente de él, por miedo de los Judíos.
13 Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.
14 ηδη δε τησ εορτησ μεσουσησ ανεβη ο ιησουσ εισ το ιερον και εδιδασκεν
14 Y al medio de la fiesta subió Jesús al templo, y enseñaba.
14 But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
15 και εθαυμαζον οι ιουδαιοι λεγοντεσ πωσ ουτοσ γραμματα οιδεν μη μεμαθηκωσ
15 Y maravillábanse los Judíos, diciendo: ¿Cómo sabe éste letras, no habiendo aprendido?
15 The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”
16 απεκριθη ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ και ειπεν η εμη διδαχη ουκ εστιν εμη αλλα του πεμψαντοσ με
16 Respondióles Jesús, y dijo: Mi doctrina no es mía, sino de aquél que me envió.
16 Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.
17 εαν τισ θελη το θελημα αυτου ποιειν γνωσεται περι τησ διδαχησ ποτερον εκ του θεου εστιν η εγω απ εμαυτου λαλω
17 El que quisiere hacer su voluntad, conocerá de la doctrina si viene de Dios, ó si yo hablo de mí mismo.
17 If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.
18 ο αφ εαυτου λαλων την δοξαν την ιδιαν ζητει ο δε ζητων την δοξαν του πεμψαντοσ αυτον ουτοσ αληθησ εστιν και αδικια εν αυτω ουκ εστιν
18 El que habla de sí mismo, su propia gloria busca; mas el que busca la gloria del que le envió, éste es verdadero, y no hay en él injusticia.
18 He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
19 ου μωσησ δεδωκεν υμιν τον νομον και ουδεισ εξ υμων ποιει τον νομον τι με ζητειτε αποκτειναι
19 ¿No os dió Moisés la ley, y ninguno de vosotros hace la ley? ¿Por qué me procuráis matar?
19 Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”
20 απεκριθη ο οχλοσ και ειπεν δαιμονιον εχεισ τισ σε ζητει αποκτειναι
20 Respondió la gente, y dijo: Demonio tienes: ¿quién te procura matar?
20 The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”
21 απεκριθη ιησουσ και ειπεν αυτοισ εν εργον εποιησα και παντεσ θαυμαζετε
21 Jesús respondió, y díjoles: Una obra hice, y todos os maravilláis.
21 Jesus answered them, “I did one work and you all marvel because of it.
22 δια τουτο μωσησ δεδωκεν υμιν την περιτομην ουχ οτι εκ του μωσεωσ εστιν αλλ εκ των πατερων και εν σαββατω περιτεμνετε ανθρωπον
22 Cierto, Moisés os dió la circuncisión (no porque sea de Moisés, mas de los padres); y en sábado circuncidáis al hombre.
22 Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.
23 ει περιτομην λαμβανει ανθρωποσ εν σαββατω ινα μη λυθη ο νομοσ μωσεωσ εμοι χολατε οτι ολον ανθρωπον υγιη εποιησα εν σαββατω
23 Si recibe el hombre la circuncisión en sábado, para que la ley de Moisés no sea quebrantada, ¿os enojáis conmigo porque en sábado hice sano todo un hombre?
23 If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?
24 μη κρινετε κατ οψιν αλλα την δικαιαν κρισιν κρινατε
24 No juzguéis según lo que parece, mas juzgad justo juicio.
24 Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”
25 ελεγον ουν τινεσ εκ των ιεροσολυμιτων ουχ ουτοσ εστιν ον ζητουσιν αποκτειναι
25 Decían entonces unos de los de Jerusalem: ¿No es éste al que buscan para matarlo?
25 Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?
26 και ιδε παρρησια λαλει και ουδεν αυτω λεγουσιν μηποτε αληθωσ εγνωσαν οι αρχοντεσ οτι ουτοσ εστιν αληθωσ ο χριστοσ
26 Y he aquí, habla públicamente, y no le dicen nada; ¿si habrán entendido verdaderamente los príncipes, que éste es el Cristo?
26 Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?
27 αλλα τουτον οιδαμεν ποθεν εστιν ο δε χριστοσ οταν ερχηται ουδεισ γινωσκει ποθεν εστιν
27 Mas éste, sabemos de dónde es: y cuando viniere el Cristo, nadie sabrá de dónde sea.
27 However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
28 εκραξεν ουν εν τω ιερω διδασκων ο ιησουσ και λεγων καμε οιδατε και οιδατε ποθεν ειμι και απ εμαυτου ουκ εληλυθα αλλ εστιν αληθινοσ ο πεμψασ με ον υμεισ ουκ οιδατε
28 Entonces clamaba Jesús en el templo, enseñando y diciendo: Y á mí me conocéis, y sabéis de dónde soy; y no he venido de mí mismo; mas el que me envió es verdadero, al cual vosotros no conocéis.
28 Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.
29 εγω οιδα αυτον οτι παρ αυτου ειμι κακεινοσ με απεστειλεν
29 Yo le conozco, porque de él soy, y él me envió.
29 I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.”
30 εζητουν ουν αυτον πιασαι και ουδεισ επεβαλεν επ αυτον την χειρα οτι ουπω εληλυθει η ωρα αυτου
30 Entonces procuraban prenderle; mas ninguno puso en él mano, porque aun no había venido su hora.
30 They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
31 πολλοι δε εκ του οχλου επιστευσαν εισ αυτον και ελεγον οτι ο χριστοσ οταν ελθη μητι πλειονα σημεια τουτων ποιησει ων ουτοσ εποιησεν
31 Y muchos del pueblo creyeron en él, y decían: El Cristo, cuando viniere, ¿hará más señales que las que éste hace?
31 But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”
32 ηκουσαν οι φαρισαιοι του οχλου γογγυζοντοσ περι αυτου ταυτα και απεστειλαν υπηρετασ οι φαρισαιοι και οι αρχιερεισ ινα πιασωσιν αυτον
32 Los Fariseos oyeron á la gente que murmuraba de él estas cosas; y los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los Fariseos enviaron servidores que le prendiesen.
32 The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
33 ειπεν ουν ο ιησουσ ετι μικρον χρονον μεθ υμων ειμι και υπαγω προσ τον πεμψαντα με
33 Y Jesús dijo: Aun un poco de tiempo estaré con vosotros, é iré al que me envió.
33 Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.
34 ζητησετε με και ουχ ευρησετε και οπου ειμι εγω υμεισ ου δυνασθε ελθειν
34 Me buscaréis, y no me hallaréis; y donde yo estaré, vosotros no podréis venir.
34 You will seek me and won’t find me. You can’t come where I am.”
35 ειπον ουν οι ιουδαιοι προσ εαυτουσ που ουτοσ μελλει πορευεσθαι οτι ημεισ ουχ ευρησομεν αυτον μη εισ την διασποραν των ελληνων μελλει πορευεσθαι και διδασκειν τουσ ελληνασ
35 Entonces los Judíos dijeron entre sí: ¿A dónde se ha de ir éste que no le hallemos? ¿Se ha de ir á los esparcidos entre los Griegos, y á enseñar á los Griegos?
35 The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?
36 τισ εστιν ουτοσ ο λογοσ ον ειπεν ζητησετε με και ουχ ευρησετε και οπου ειμι εγω υμεισ ου δυνασθε ελθειν
36 ¿Qué dicho es éste que dijo: Me buscaréis, y no me hallaréis; y donde yo estaré, vosotros no podréis venir?
36 What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’?”
37 εν δε τη εσχατη ημερα τη μεγαλη τησ εορτησ ειστηκει ο ιησουσ και εκραξεν λεγων εαν τισ διψα ερχεσθω προσ με και πινετω
37 Mas en el postrer día grande de la fiesta, Jesús se ponía en pie y clamaba, diciendo: Si alguno tiene sed, venga á mí y beba.
37 Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!
38 ο πιστευων εισ εμε καθωσ ειπεν η γραφη ποταμοι εκ τησ κοιλιασ αυτου ρευσουσιν υδατοσ ζωντοσ
38 El que cree en mí, como dice la Escritura, ríos de agua viva correrán de su vientre.
38 He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water.”
39 τουτο δε ειπεν περι του πνευματοσ ου εμελλον λαμβανειν οι πιστευοντεσ εισ αυτον ουπω γαρ ην πνευμα αγιον οτι ιησουσ ουδεπω εδοξασθη
39 (Y esto dijo del Espíritu que habían de recibir los que creyesen en él: pues aun no había [venido] el Espíritu Santo; porque Jesús no estaba aún glorificado.)
39 But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.
40 πολλοι ουν εκ του οχλου ακουσαντεσ τον λογον ελεγον ουτοσ εστιν αληθωσ ο προφητησ
40 Entonces algunos de la multitud, oyendo este dicho, decían: Verdaderamente éste es el profeta.
40 Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, “This is truly the prophet.”
41 αλλοι ελεγον ουτοσ εστιν ο χριστοσ αλλοι ελεγον μη γαρ εκ τησ γαλιλαιασ ο χριστοσ ερχεται
41 Otros decían: Este es el Cristo. Algunos empero decían: ¿De Galilea ha de venir el Cristo?
41 Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “What, does the Christ come out of Galilee?
42 ουχι η γραφη ειπεν οτι εκ του σπερματοσ δαυιδ και απο βηθλεεμ τησ κωμησ οπου ην δαυιδ ο χριστοσ ερχεται
42 ¿No dice la Escritura, que de la simiente de David, y de la aldea de Bethlehem, de donde era David, vendrá el Cristo?
42 Hasn’t the Scripture said that the Christ comes of the offspring of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?”
43 σχισμα ουν εν τω οχλω εγενετο δι αυτον
43 Así que había disensión entre la gente acerca de él.
43 So a division arose in the multitude because of him.
44 τινεσ δε ηθελον εξ αυτων πιασαι αυτον αλλ ουδεισ επεβαλεν επ αυτον τασ χειρασ
44 Y algunos de ellos querían prenderle; mas ninguno echó sobre él manos.
44 Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.
45 ηλθον ουν οι υπηρεται προσ τουσ αρχιερεισ και φαρισαιουσ και ειπον αυτοισ εκεινοι δια τι ουκ ηγαγετε αυτον
45 Y los ministriles vinieron á los principales sacerdotes y á los Fariseos; y ellos les dijeron: ¿Por qué no le trajisteis?
45 The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said to them, “Why didn’t you bring him?”
46 απεκριθησαν οι υπηρεται ουδεποτε ουτωσ ελαλησεν ανθρωποσ ωσ ουτοσ ο ανθρωποσ
46 Los ministriles respondieron: Nunca ha hablado hombre así como este hombre.
46 The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”
47 απεκριθησαν ουν αυτοισ οι φαρισαιοι μη και υμεισ πεπλανησθε
47 Entonces los Fariseos les respondieron: ¿Estáis también vosotros engañados?
47 The Pharisees therefore answered them, “You aren’t also led astray, are you?
48 μη τισ εκ των αρχοντων επιστευσεν εισ αυτον η εκ των φαρισαιων
48 ¿Ha creído en él alguno de los príncipes, ó de los Fariseos?
48 Have any of the rulers or any of the Pharisees believed in him?
49 αλλ ο οχλοσ ουτοσ ο μη γινωσκων τον νομον επικαταρατοι εισιν
49 Mas estos comunales que no saben la ley, malditos son.
49 But this multitude that doesn’t know the law is cursed.”
50 λεγει νικοδημοσ προσ αυτουσ ο ελθων νυκτοσ προσ αυτον εισ ων εξ αυτων
50 Díceles Nicodemo (el que vino á él de noche, el cual era uno de ellos):
50 Nicodemus (he who came to him by night, being one of them) said to them,
51 μη ο νομοσ ημων κρινει τον ανθρωπον εαν μη ακουση παρ αυτου προτερον και γνω τι ποιει
51 ¿Juzga nuestra ley á hombre, si primero no oyere de él, y entendiere lo que ha hecho?
51 “Does our law judge a man unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?”
52 απεκριθησαν και ειπον αυτω μη και συ εκ τησ γαλιλαιασ ει ερευνησον και ιδε οτι προφητησ εκ τησ γαλιλαιασ ουκ εγηγερται
52 Respondieron y dijéronle: ¿Eres tú también Galileo? Escudriña y ve que de Galilea nunca se levantó profeta.
52 They answered him, “Are you also from Galilee? Search and see that no prophet has arisen out of Galilee.”
53◆ και επορευθη εκαστοσ εισ τον οικον αυτου
53 Y fuése cada uno á su casa.
53 Everyone went to his own house,

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

    Nothing is worse than envy and malice; through these death entered into the world. For when the devil saw man honored, he endured not his prosperity, but used every means to destroy him. ( Wisd. ii. 24.) And from the same root one may everywhere see this same fruit produced.

    This is also the reason why, when men were often desirous to take Him, it is said, "No man laid hands upon Him, for the hour of His being taken was not yet come;" nor the time of His passion, which had been foreknown by the Father; as also says the prophet Habakkuk, "By this Thou shalt be known when …
