¹⁷ Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ^(A)ascended to My Father; but go to ^(B)My brethren and say to them, ^(C)‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to ^(D)My God and your God.’ ”

²⁸ You have heard Me ^(A)say to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because ^[a]I said, ^(B)‘I am going to the Father,’ for ^(C)My Father is greater than I.

³⁶ do you say of Him ^(A)whom the Father sanctified and ^(B)sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ ^(C)because I said, ‘I am ^(D)the Son of God’?

⁷⁰ Then they all said, “Are You then the Son of God?”

So He said to them, ^(A)“You rightly say that I am.”
