I am telling you this now,<n id="1" /> before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe<n id="2" /> that I am he.<n id="3" />

Everyone<n id="1" /> will know by this that you are my disciples &#8211; if you have love for one another.&#8221;p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;If the world hates you, be aware<n id="1" /> that it hated me first.<n id="2" />

But they will do all these things to you on account of<n id="1" /> my name, because they do not know the one who sent me.<n id="2" />

Now this happened<n id="1" /> to fulfill the word that is written in their law, &#8216;<b><i>They hated me without reasoni>b>.&#8217;<n id="2" />

Jesus replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;I told you that I am he. If you are looking for<n id="2" /> me, let these men<n id="3" /> go.&#8221;<n id="4" />

He said this<n id="1" /> to fulfill the word he had spoken,<n id="2" /> &#8220;I have not lost a single one of those whom you gave me.&#8221;<n id="3" />p>

(Now it was Caiaphas who had advised<n id="1" /> the Jewish leaders<n id="2" /> that it was to their advantage that one man die for the people.)<n id="3" />p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">After this Jesus, realizing that by this time<n id="1" /> everything was completed,<n id="2" /> said (in order to fulfill the scripture),<n id="3" /> &#8220;I am thirsty!&#8221;<n id="4" />

And so, because it was the Jewish day of preparation<n id="1" /> and the tomb was nearby,<n id="2" /> they placed Jesus&#8217; body there.p>

Jesus said to him, &#8220;Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are the people<n id="1" /> who have not seen and yet have believed.&#8221;<n id="2" />p>

This is the one about whom I said, &#8216;After me comes a man who is greater than I am,<n id="1" /> because he existed before me.&#8217;

<p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> John testified,<n id="2" /> &#8220;I saw the Spirit descending like a dove<n id="3" /> from heaven,<n id="4" /> and it remained on him.<n id="5" />

He did not need anyone to testify about man,<n id="1" /> for he knew what was in man.<n id="2" />p>

I tell you the solemn truth,<n id="1" /> we speak about what we know and testify about what we have seen, but<n id="2" /> you people<n id="3" /> do not accept our testimony.<n id="4" />

But the one who practices the truth comes to the light, so that it may be plainly evident that his deeds have been done in God.<n id="1" />p>

John<n id="1" /> was also baptizing at Aenon near Salim,<n id="2" /> because water was plentiful there, and people were coming<n id="3" /> to him<n id="4" /> and being baptized.

The woman replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;I have no husband.&#8221; Jesus said to her, &#8220;Right you are when you said,<n id="2" /> &#8216;I have no husband,&#8217;<n id="3" />

Our fathers worshiped on this mountain,<n id="1" /> and you people<n id="2" /> say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem.&#8221;<n id="3" />

Jesus said to her, &#8220;Believe me, woman,<n id="1" /> a time<n id="2" /> is coming when you will worship<n id="3" /> the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
