John 7:6-20 World English Bible (WEB)

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

7. The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

8. You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

9. Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

10. But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.

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

12. There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”

13. Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

14. But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

15. The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”

16. Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

17. If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.

18. He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

19. Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”

20. The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”
