John 7:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ The world cannot hate you [^Cbecause they are part of it], but it hates me, because I ·tell it [testify concerning; witness to] ·the evil things it does [^Lthat its works are evil]. ⁸ So you go [^Lup] to the feast. I will not go [^Lup] yet^[a] to this feast, because ·the right time for me [my time] has not yet ·come [fully come; ^Lbeen fulfilled].” ⁹ After saying this, Jesus ·stayed [remained behind] in Galilee.
