John 7:8
ὑμεῖς ἀνάβητε εἰς τὴν ἑορτήν· ἐγὼ οὔπω ἀναβαίνω εἰς τὴν ἑορτὴν ταύτην, ὅτι ὁ ἐμὸς καιρὸς οὔπω πεπλήρωται.
Rough Word-by-word:

Smooth Translation:

ἐγὼ pronoun nominative 1st singular "I"
οὔπω adverb "not yet" (note: GreatTreasures.org has switched to the Wescott Hort version of the Greek New Testament and the adverb here is from that version. UBS chose οὐκ. Support for either rendering seems split. I am guessing that UBS chose οὐκ because that is the more difficult reading and it is hard to imagine why a scribe would change it in the other direction. There is a theological concern here because Jesus later does go up to the feast. Having said all that, the οὔπω later in this verse is supported by both WH and UBS so, to me, the theological concern is resolved sufficiently.
