He testifies to what he has seen and heard, and yet no one accepts his testimony.

Just then his disciples arrived, and they were amazed that he was talking with a woman. Yet no one said, “What do you want? ” or “Why are you talking with her? ”

Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, the Son is not able to do anything on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father[fn] does, the Son likewise does these things.

“The Father, in fact, judges no one but has given all judgment to the Son,

“I can do nothing on my own. I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

“For no one does anything in secret while he’s seeking public recognition. If you do these things, show yourself to the world.”

When Jesus stood up, he said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you? ”

“If I glorify myself,” Jesus answered, “my glory is nothing. My Father ​— ​about whom you say, ‘He is our God’ ​— ​he is the one who glorifies me.

“We[fn] must do the works of him who sent me[fn] while it is day. Night is coming when no one can work.

“If this man were not from God, he wouldn’t be able to do anything.”

“No one takes it from me, but I lay it down on my own. I have the right to lay it down, and I have the right to take it up again. I have received this command from my Father.”

Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

“I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world is coming. He has no power over me.[fn]

“I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without me.

“No one has greater love than this: to lay down his life for his friends.

“If I had not done the works among them that no one else has done, they would not be guilty of sin. Now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.

“But now I am going away to him who sent me, and not one of you asks me, ‘Where are you going? ’

“So you also have sorrow[fn] now. But I will see you again. Your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy from you.

His disciples said, “Look, now you’re speaking plainly and not using any figurative language.

“While I was with them, I was protecting them by your name that you have given me. I guarded them and not one of them is lost, except the son of destruction,[fn] so that the Scripture may be fulfilled.

Pilate told them, “You take him and judge him according to your law.”

“It’s not legal for us to put anyone to death,” the Jews declared.

“What is truth? ” said Pilate.

After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again and told them, “I find no grounds for charging him.

Pilate went outside again and said to them, “Look, I’m bringing him out to you to let you know I find no grounds for charging him.”
