John 7:17-27

KJV

NIV

17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
17 Anyone who chooses to do the will of God will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own.
18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
18 Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory, but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him.

22 Yet, because Moses gave you circumcision (though actually it did not come from Moses, but from the patriarchs), you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath.
23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?
23 Now if a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me for healing a man’s whole body on the Sabbath?
24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
26 Here he is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying a word to him. Have the authorities really concluded that he is the Messiah?
27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
27 But we know where this man is from; when the Messiah comes, no one will know where he is from.”
