John 2:23-25
Lexham English Bible
Jesus at the Passover
23 Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name because they[a] saw his signs which he was doing. 24 But Jesus himself did not entrust himself to them, because he knew all people,[b] 25 and because he did not need[c] anyone to testify[d] about man, for he himself knew what was in man.[e]
