The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 50: John: The Challoner Revision
Bible. John
10:21. Others said: These are not the words of one that hath a devil.
Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
10:22. And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem: and it was
winter.
10:23. And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon's porch.
10:24. The Jews therefore came round about him and said to him: How long
dost thou hold our souls in suspense? If thou be the Christ, tell us
plainly.
10:25. Jesus answered them: I speak to you, and you believe not: the
works that I do in the name of my Father, they give testimony of me.
10:26. But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.
10:27. My sheep hear my voice. And I know them: and they follow me.
10:28. And I give them life everlasting: and they shall not perish for
ever. And no man shall pluck them out of my hand.
10:29. That which my Father hath given me is greater than all: and no
one can snatch them out of the hand of my Father.
10:30. I and the Father are one.
I and the Father are one... That is, one divine nature, but two distinct
persons.
10:31. The Jews then took up stones to stone him.
10:32. Jesus answered them: Many good works I have shewed you from my
Father. For which of those works do you stone me?
10:33. The Jews answered him: For a good work we stone thee not, but for
blasphemy: and because that thou being a, man, makest thyself God.
10:34. Jesus answered them: Is it not written in your law: I said, you
are gods?
10:35. If he called them gods to whom the word of God was spoken; and
the scripture cannot be broken:
10:36. Do you say of him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into
the world: Thou blasphemest; because I said: I am the Son of God?
10:37. If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
10:38. But if I do, though you will not believe me, believe the works:
that you may know and believe that the Father is in me and I in the
Father.
10:39. They sought therefore to take him: and he escaped out of their
hands.
10:40. And he went again beyond the Jordan, into that place where John
was baptizing first. And there he abode.
10:41. And many resorted to him: and they said: John indeed did no sign.
10:42. But all things whatsoever John said of this man were true. And
many believed n him.
John Chapter 11
Christ raises Lazarus to life. The rulers resolve to put him to death.
11:1. Now there was a certain man sick, named Lazarus, of Bethania, of
the town of Mary and of Martha her sister.
11:2. (And Mary was she that anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped
his feet with her hair: whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
11:3. His sisters therefore sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom
thou lovest is sick.
11:4. And Jesus hearing it, said to them: This sickness is not unto
death, but for the glory of God: that the Son of God may be glorified by
it.
11:5. Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister Mary and Lazarus.
11:6. When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he still remained in
the same place two days.
