John 8:20-22
English Standard Version
20 These words he spoke in (A)the treasury, as he taught in the temple; but (B)no one arrested him, because (C)his hour had not yet come.
21 So he said to them again, (D)“I am going away, and (E)you will seek me, and (F)you will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot come.” 22 So the Jews said, (G)“Will he kill himself, since he says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come’?”

20 These words He spoke [a]in (A)the treasury, as (B)He taught in the temple area; and no one arrested Him, because (C)His hour had not yet come.
21 Then He said again to them, “I am going away, and (D)you will look for Me, and (E)will die in your sin; where I am going, you cannot come.” 22 So (F)the Jews were saying, “Surely He will not kill Himself, will He, since He says, ‘(G)Where I am going, you cannot come’?”

John 8:20-22
King James Version
20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.
22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.

Dispute Over Who Jesus Is
21 Once more Jesus said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die(D) in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.”(E)
22 This made the Jews ask, “Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, ‘Where I go, you cannot come’?”
