John 10:32

10:32 Jesus said to them, ¹  “I have shown you many good deeds ²  from the Father. For which one of them are you going to stone me?”

John 10:38

10:38 But if I do them, even if you do not believe me, believe the deeds, ³  so that you may come to know ⁴  and understand that I am in the Father and the Father is in me.”

² tn Or “good works.”

³ tn Or “works.”

⁴ tn Or “so that you may learn.”
