John 7:1-13

1 After this Jesus traveled throughout Galilee. He didn't want to travel in Judea, because the Jewish authorities wanted to kill him.

1 After this, Jesus went around in Galilee. He did not want to go about in Judea because the Jewish leaders there were looking for a way to kill him.

2 When it was almost time for the Jewish Festival of Booths,

2 But when the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near,

3 Jesus' brothers said to him, "Leave Galilee. Go to Judea so that your disciples can see the amazing works that you do.

3 Jesus’ brothers said to him, “Leave Galilee and go to Judea, so that your disciples there may see the works you do.

4 Those who want to be known publicly don't do things secretly. Since you can do these things, show yourself to the world."

4 No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.”

5 His brothers said this because even they didn't believe in him.

5 For even his own brothers did not believe in him.

6 Jesus replied, "For you, anytime is fine. But my time hasn't come yet.

6 Therefore Jesus told them, “My time is not yet here; for you any time will do.

7 The world can't hate you. It hates me, though, because I testify that its works are evil.

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

8 You go up to the festival. I'm not going to this one because my time hasn't yet come."

8 You go to the festival. I am not going up to this festival, because my time has not yet fully come.”

9 Having said this, he stayed in Galilee.

11 The Jewish leaders were looking for Jesus at the festival. They kept asking, "Where is he?"

11 Now at the festival the Jewish leaders were watching for Jesus and asking, “Where is he?”

12 The crowds were murmuring about him. "He's a good man," some said, but others were saying, "No, he tricks the people."

12 Among the crowds there was widespread whispering about him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others replied, “No, he deceives the people.”

13 No one spoke about him publicly, though, for fear of the Jewish authorities.

13 But no one would say anything publicly about him for fear of the leaders.
