Nicodemus (he who came to Jesus by night, being one of them) said to them,

Does our Law judge a man before it hears him and knows what he does?

Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed into Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, that they might not be put out of the synagogue;

for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

After this, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him permission. And he came and took the body of Jesus.

And Nicodemus, who at first came to Jesus by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

And Gideon took ten men from among his servants and did as Jehovah had spoken to him. But because he feared his father's household and the men of the city too much to do it by day, he did it by night.

Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is My Law; do not fear the reproach of men, nor be afraid of their revilings.

and most of the brethren in the Lord, having become confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the Word without fear.

And they came to John and said to him, Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore witness; behold, He is immersing, and everyone is coming to Him.

Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, What do you seek? They said to Him, Rabbi (which is to say, when translated, Teacher), where are You staying?

Jesus said to her, Mary! She turned and said to Him, Rabboni! (which is to say, Teacher)

And they sent to Him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Teacher, we know that You are true, and teach the way of God in truth; nor do You care about anyone, for You do not regard the person of men.

And when they had come, they said to Him, Teacher, we know that You are true, and care about no one; for You do not regard the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

But I have a greater testimony than John's; for the works which the Father has given Me to finish, the very works that I do, bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me.

And many out of the crowd believed into Him, and said, When the Christ comes, will He do more signs than these which this Man has done?

Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How can a man who is a sinner do such signs? And there was a division among them.

The man answered and said to them, Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know where He is from; yet He has opened my eyes!

Since the world began it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, What shall we do? For this Man performs many signs.

If we let Him alone like this, everyone will believe into Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation.

But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe into Him,

If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would have no sin. But now they have seen and also hated both Me and My Father.

Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a Man approved by God to you by works of power, wonders, and signs which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know;

saying, What shall we do to these men? For indeed, that a notable sign has been done through them is evident to all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we are not able to deny it.

But so that it spreads no further among the people, let us threaten them with a threat, that from now on they speak to no one in this name.

how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.
