28: ειπον ουν προς αυτον τι ποιουμεν ποιωμεν ινα εργαζωμεθα τα εργα του θεου— edit Textus Receptus
28: Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?- edit KJV text
28: They said therefore unto him: What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?— edit Douay text


What shall we do, that we might work the world's of God? That is, such things as God will approve. This was the earnest inquiry of men who were seeking to be saved. They had crossed the Sea of Tiberias to seek him; they supposed him to be the Messiah, and they sincerely desired to be taught the way of life; yet it is observable that they expected to find that way as other sinners commonly do -- by their works. The idea of doing something. to merit salvation is one of the last that the sinner ever surrenders.
