John 8:43-45
New American Standard Bible
43 Why do you not understand [a](A)what I am saying? It is because you cannot (B)listen to My word. 44 (C)You are of (D)your father the devil, and (E)you want to do the desires of your father. (F)He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because (G)there is no truth in him. Whenever he tells [b]a lie, he (H)speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of [c]lies. 45 But because (I)I say the truth, you do not believe Me.

John 8:43-45
Amplified Bible
43 Why do you misunderstand what I am saying? It is because [your spiritual ears are deaf and] you are unable to hear [the truth of] My word. 44 You are of your father the devil, and it is your will to practice the desires [which are characteristic] of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks what is natural to him, for he is a liar and the father of lies and half-truths. 45 But because I speak the truth, you do not believe Me [and continue in your unbelief].
