and they shall never perish to eternity, and no person
shall pluck them out of my hand. (29)My Father, who gave them to me, is
greater than all and no one shall pluck them out of my Father's hand.
(30)I and my Father are one.
(31)Then the Jews again brought stones, in order to stone him.
(32)Jesus said unto them, Many good works have I shewed you from my
Father; for which work of these are ye going to stone me? (33)The Jews
answered him, For a good work we do not stone thee; but for blasphemy;
and that thou, being merely a man, makest thyself God. (34)Jesus
answered them, Is it not written in your law, "I said ye are gods?"
(35)If he called those gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the
scripture cannot be broken; (36)do ye say of him, whom the Father hath
sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest because I said, I
am the Son of God? (37)If I do not the works of my Father, believe me
not. (38)But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that
ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.

and said, That John indeed performed no miracle: but all things
whatsoever John spake of this man were true. (42)And many believed on
him there.

sick.) (3)The sisters therefore sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he
whom thou lovest is sick. (4)When Jesus heard it, he said, This
sickness is not for death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of
God may be glorified thereby.
(5)Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. (6)Then, though
he heard he was ill, yet notwithstanding he abode in the same place
where he was two days. (7)But after that he saith to his disciples, Let
us go again into Judea. (8)The disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews
have just now sought to stone thee; and art thou going thither again?
(9)Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man
walk in the day, he doth not stumble, because he seeth the light of
this world. (10)But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because
there is no light with him. (11)The
