John 8:42-45
Christian Standard Bible
42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me,(A) because I came from God(B) and I am here. For I didn’t come on my own, but he sent me. 43 Why don’t you understand what I say? Because you cannot listen to[a] my word.(C) 44 You are of your father the devil,(D) and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer(E) from the beginning(F) and does not stand in the truth,(G) because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature,[b] because he is a liar and the father of lies. 45 Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.

John 8:42-45
King James Version
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
