John 8:38-47  New American Standard Bible

³⁸ I speak of the things which I have seen ^[a]with My Father; therefore you also do the things which you heard from ^(A)your father.”

³⁹ They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is ^(B)our father.” Jesus *said to them, “^(C)If you are Abraham’s children, do the deeds of Abraham. ⁴⁰ But as it is, ^(D)you are seeking to kill Me, a Man who has ^(E)told you the truth, which I heard from God; this Abraham did not do. ⁴¹ You are doing the deeds of ^(F)your father.” They said to Him, “We were not born as a result of sexual immorality; ^(G)we have one Father: God.” ⁴² Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, ^(H)you would love Me, ^(I)for I came forth from God and am here; for I have ^(J)not even come ^[b]on My own, but ^[c](K)He sent Me. ⁴³ Why do you not understand ^[d](L)what I am saying? It is because you cannot ^(M)listen to My word. ^44 (N)You are of ^(O)your father the devil, and ^(P)you want to do the desires of your father. ^(Q)He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because ^(R)there is no truth in him. Whenever he tells ^[e]a lie, he ^(S)speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of ^[f]lies. ⁴⁵ But because ^(T)I say the truth, you do not believe Me. ⁴⁶ Which one of you convicts Me of sin? If ^(U)I speak truth, why do you not believe Me? ^47 (V)The one who is of God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not hear them, because you are not of God.”
