John 8:53-55
1599 Geneva Bible
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the Prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 [a]Jesus answered, If I honor myself, mine honor is [b]nothing worth: it is my Father that honoreth me, whom ye say, that he is your God.
55 [c]Yet ye have not known him: but I know him, and if I should say I know him not, I should be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his word.
