AndAs Jesus walked in the temple, the people came round about him, asking himQuestions.PHARISEEHow long dost thou make us to doubt?CHOIR (in Aramaic)Adma lamatai?(How long, Lord?)PHARISEEHow long dost thou make us to wait on thy word?CHOIR (in Aramaic)Omar lan, Omar(Tell us.)PHARISEEIf thou be the Christ, wilt thou tell us, that we might believe?CHOIR (in Aramaic)Ant hu, ant hu, ant?(Art Thou He?)PHARISEETell us so, plainly.NARRATION (Man)Jesus answered them, I told you and you believed not, because ye are not ofMy sheep. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and I lay down my lifeFor the sheep. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and noMan is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.PHARISEEThou blasphemest.People! Take up your stones.CHOIR (in Aramaic)M'lal hu.(He hath spoken it.)PHARISEEHear, how he blasphemeth!Take up your stones!CHOIR (in Aramaic)M'lal hu.(He hath spoken it.)PHARISEETake up your stones!CHOIR (in Aramaic)M'lal hu.(He hath spoken it.)M' lal hu.(He hath spoken it.NARRATION (Man)Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shown you from my Father; forWhich of those works do ye stone me?PHARISEEFor a good work we stone thee not;But for that thou, being a man,Makest thyself God.NARRATION (Man)Jesus answered them, If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.But if I do, believe the works, that ye may know, and believe, that theFather is in me, and I in him.
