¹ After this, Jesus went from place to place in Galilee. He did not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were looking for a chance to put him to death.

¹⁹ Did not Moses give you the law? Even so, not one of you keeps the law. Why have you a desire to put me to death?

³ He went out of Judaea into Galilee again.

¹⁶ And for this reason the Jews were turned against Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.

¹⁷ But his answer was: My Father is still working even now, and so I am working.

¹⁸ For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.

³⁸ But when the workmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death and take his heritage.

²³ But when they are cruel to you in one town, go in flight to another: for truly, I say to you, You will not have gone through the towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.

³⁸ About Jesus of Nazareth, how God gave the Holy Spirit to him, with power: and how he went about doing good and making well all who were troubled by evil spirits, for God was with him.

⁵⁴ Now this is the second sign which Jesus did after he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.

¹⁹ And this is the witness of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to him with the question, Who are you?

³¹ At that time, certain Pharisees came to him and said, Go away from this place, because Herod's purpose is to put you to death.

³² And he said, Go and say to that fox, I send out evil spirits and do works of mercy today and tomorrow, and on the third day my work will be complete.

³³ But I have to go on my way today and tomorrow and the third day, for it is not right for a prophet to come to his death outside Jerusalem.

⁵³ And from that day they took thought together how to put him to death.

⁵⁴ So Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near to the waste land, to a town named Ephraim, where he was for some time with the disciples.

³⁹ Then again they made an attempt to take him; but he got away from them.

⁴⁰ And he went again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John first gave baptism; and he was there for a time.

⁴⁰ But now you have a desire to put me to death, a man who has said to you what is true, as I had it from God: Abraham did not do that.

³⁷ I am conscious that you are Abraham's seed; but you have a desire to put me to death because my word has no place in you.

²⁵ Then some of the people of Jerusalem said, Is not this the man whose death is desired?
