John 7:31-37
New American Standard Bible
32The Pharisees heard the crowd whispering these things about Him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest Him.
33Therefore Jesus said, 'For a little while longer I am going to be with you, and then I am going to Him who sent Me.
34You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.'
35The Jews then said to one another, 'Where does this man intend to go that we will not find Him? He does not intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks, does He?
36What is this statement that He said, ‘You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come’?'
King James Version
Chapter 7
31And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done? 32The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him. 33Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me. 34Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come. 35Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles? 36What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come?Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 7
31However, many from the crowd believed in him and said, "When the Messiah comes, he won't perform more signs than this man has done, will he? " 32The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about him, and so the chief priests and the Pharisees sent servants to arrest him.
33Then Jesus said, "I am only with you for a short time. Then I'm going to the one who sent me.
34You will look for me, but you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come."
35Then the Jews said to one another, "Where does he intend to go that we won't find him? He doesn't intend to go to the Jewish people dispersed among the Greeks and teach the Greeks, does he?
36What is this remark he made: 'You will look for me, and you will not find me; and where I am, you cannot come'? "
New Living Translation
32When the Pharisees heard that the crowds were whispering such things, they and the leading priests sent Temple guards to arrest Jesus.
33But Jesus told them, 'I will be with you only a little longer. Then I will return to the one who sent me.
34You will search for me but not find me. And you cannot go where I am going.'
35The Jewish leaders were puzzled by this statement. 'Where is he planning to go?' they asked. 'Is he thinking of leaving the country and going to the Jews in other lands? Maybe he will even teach the Greeks!
36What does he mean when he says, ‘You will search for me but not find me,’ and ‘You cannot go where I am going’?'
