John 8:20-22
The Message
20 He gave this speech in the Treasury while teaching in the Temple. No one arrested him because his time wasn’t yet up.
21 Then he went over the same ground again. “I’m leaving and you are going to look for me, but you’re missing God in this and are headed for a dead end. There is no way you can come with me.”
22 The Jews said, “So, is he going to kill himself? Is that what he means by ‘You can’t come with me’?”

John 8:20-22
New International Version
20 He spoke these words while teaching(A) in the temple courts near the place where the offerings were put.(B) Yet no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.(C)
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’?”
