John 8:54-56
The Voice
Jesus: 54 If I were trying to make Myself somebody important, it would be a waste of time. That kind of fame is worth nothing. It is the Father who is behind Me, urging Me on, giving Me praise. You say, “He is our God,” 55 but you are not in relationship with Him. I know Him intimately; even if I said anything other than the truth, I would be a liar, like you. I know Him, and I do as He says. 56 Your father Abraham anticipated the time when I would come, and he celebrated My coming.
John 8:54-56
New International Version
54 Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself,(A) my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me.(B) 55 Though you do not know him,(C) I know him.(D) If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and obey his word.(E) 56 Your father Abraham(F) rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it(G) and was glad.”
