John 7:3-10

3 so Jesus' brothers said to him, "Leave this place and go to Judea, so that your followers will see the things that you are doing.

4 People don't hide what they are doing if they want to be well known. Since you are doing these things, let the whole world know about you!

5 (Not even his brothers believed in him.)

6 Jesus said to them, "The right time for me has not yet come. Any time is right for you.

7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me, because I keep telling it that its ways are bad.

8 You go on to the festival. I am not going to this festival, because the right time has not come for me."

9 He said this and then stayed on in Galilee.

10 After his brothers had gone to the festival, Jesus also went; however, he did not go openly, but secretly.
