John 7:1-11

1 And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

2 Now the tabernacles, the feast of the Jews, was near.

3 His brethren therefore said to him, Remove hence and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest;

4 for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be [known] in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world:

5 for neither did his brethren believe on him.

6 Jesus therefore says to them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.

7 The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.

8 Ye, go ye up to this feast. I go not up to this feast, for *my* time is not yet fulfilled.

9 Having said these things to them he abode in Galilee.

10 But when his brethren had gone up, then he himself also went up to the feast, not openly, but as in secret.

11 The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
