²⁰ for the Father doth love the Son, and doth shew to him all things that He himself doth; and greater works than these He will shew him, that ye may wonder.

³⁵ the Father doth love the Son, and all things hath given into his hand;

¹⁷ and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, `This is My Son -- the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'

¹⁷ for having received from God the Father honour and glory, such a voice being borne to him by the excellent glory: `This is My Son -- the beloved, in whom I was well pleased;'

²⁶ and I made known to them Thy name, and will make known, that the love with which Thou lovedst me in them may be, and I in them.'

¹² `Verily, verily, I say to you, he who is believing in me, the works that I do -- that one also shall do, and greater than these he shall do, because I go on to my Father;

¹⁵ no more do I call you servants, because the servant hath not known what his lord doth, and you I have called friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I did make known to you.

⁴⁵ and he who is beholding me, doth behold Him who sent me;

⁴⁶ I a light to the world have come, that every one who is believing in me -- in the darkness may not remain;

⁴⁷ and if any one may hear my sayings, and not believe, I -- I do not judge him, for I came not that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.

³² Jesus answered them, `Many good works did I shew you from my Father; because of which work of them do ye stone me?'

²⁹ and they shall come forth; those who did the good things to a rising again of life, and those who practised the evil things to a rising again of judgment.

²⁵ `Verily, verily, I say to you -- There cometh an hour, and it now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those having heard shall live;

²¹ `For, as the Father doth raise the dead, and doth make alive, so also the Son doth make alive whom he willeth;

¹⁸ God no one hath ever seen; the only begotten Son, who is on the bosom of the Father -- he did declare.

²² `All things were delivered up to me by my Father, and no one doth know who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom the Son may wish to reveal `Him'.'

⁵ While he is yet speaking, lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, `This is My Son, -- the Beloved, in whom I did delight; hear him.'

²⁷ `All things were delivered to me by my Father, and none doth know the Son, except the Father, nor doth any know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son may wish to reveal `Him'.

²² Jehovah possessed me -- the beginning of His way, Before His works since then.

²³ From the age I was anointed, from the first, From former states of the earth.

²⁴ In there being no depths, I was brought forth, In there being no fountains heavy `with' waters,

²⁵ Before mountains were sunk, Before heights, I was brought forth.

²⁶ While He had not made the earth, and out-places, And the top of the dusts of the world.

²⁷ In His preparing the heavens I `am' there, In His decreeing a circle on the face of the deep,

²⁸ In His strengthening clouds above, In His making strong fountains of the deep,

²⁹ In His setting for the sea its limit, And the waters transgress not His command, In His decreeing the foundations of earth,

³⁰ Then I am near Him, a workman, And I am a delight -- day by day. Rejoicing before Him at all times,

³¹ Rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth, And my delights `are' with the sons of men.
