The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 50: John: The Challoner Revision
Bible. John
5:33. You sent to John: and he gave testimony to the truth.
5:34. But I receive not testimony from man: but I say these things, that
you may be saved.
5:35. He was a burning and a shining light: and you were willing for a
time to rejoice in his light.
5:36. But I have a greater testimony than that of John: for the works
which the Father hath given me to perfect, the works themselves which I
do, give testimony of me, that the Father hath sent me.
5:37. And the Father himself who hath sent me hath given testimony of
me: neither have you heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
5:38. And you have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent,
him you believe not.
5:39. Search the scriptures: for you think in them to have life
everlasting. And the same are they that give testimony of me.
Or... You search the scriptures. Scrutamini... It is not a command for
all to read the scriptures; but a reproach to the Pharisees, that
reading the scriptures as they did, and thinking to find everlasting
life in them, they would not receive him to whom all those scriptures
gave testimony, and through whom alone they could have that true life.
5:40. And you will not come to me that you may have life.
5:41. I receive not glory from men.
5:42. But I know you, that you have not the love of God in you.
5:43. I am come in the name of my Father, and you receive me not: if
another shall come in his own name, him you will receive.
5:44. How can you believe, who receive glory one from another: and the
glory which is from God alone, you do not seek?
5:45. Think not that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one that
accuseth you, Moses, in whom you trust.
5:46. For if you did believe Moses, you would perhaps believe me also:
for he wrote of me.
5:47. But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my
words?
John Chapter 6
Christ feeds five thousand with five loaves. He walks upon the sea and
discourses of the bread of life.
6:1. After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is
that of Tiberias.
6:2. And a great multitude followed him, because they saw the miracles
which he did on them that were diseased.
6:3. Jesus therefore went up into a mountain: and there he sat with his
disciples.
6:4. Now the pasch, the festival day of the Jews, was near at hand.
6:5. When Jesus therefore had lifted up his eyes and seen that a very
great multitude cometh to him, he said to Philip: Whence shall we buy
bread, that these may eat?
6:6. And this he said to try him: for he himself knew what he would do.
6:7. Philip answered him: Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not
sufficient for them that every one may take a little.
6:8. One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, saith to
him:
6:9. There is a boy here that hath five barley loaves and two fishes.
But what are these among so many?
