8 But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went to the Har HaZeytim (Mount of Olives).
2 And at the beginning of Shacharis, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came again into the Beis Hamikdash and kol haAm (all the people) were coming to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, and having sat, for them he was saying a shiur.
3 And the Sofrim and the Perushim led an isha (woman) having been caught in ni’uf (adultery) and, having stood her in the midst [VAYIKRA 20:10],
4 They say to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Rabbi, this isha (woman) has been caught in the act of committing ni’uf (adultery).
5 Now in our Torah Moshe Rabbeinu gave us a mitzvah to stone such nashim. You, therefore, what do you say? [Lv 20:10; Dt 22:22-24; Job 31:11]
6 But this they were saying to put a nissayon before Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach that they might have something about which to accuse him, but he, having stooped down with his finger, was writing on the ground.
7 But as they were remaining, questioning him, he stood up and said to them, The one without chet (sin) among you, at her let him be first to throw a stone. [Dt 17:7; Ezek 16:40]
8 And again, having stooped down, he was writing on the ground.
9 And the ones having heard were departing, one by one, beginning with the zekenim, and he was left alone with the isha standing before him.
10 And having stood up, he said to her, Isha, where are they? Does no one condemn you?
11 And she said, No one, Adoni. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Neither do I condemn you. Go and practice chet no more.
12 Then again he spoke to them, saying, Ani Hu HaOhr HaOlam Hazeh. The one following me will never walk in choshech, but will have the Ohr HaChayyim. [Isa 9:1; 42:8; 49:6, 60:1,3 Prov 4:18]
13 Therefore, the Perushim said to him, You give solemn edut (testimony) about yourself. But your edut is not ne’emanah.
14 In reply, he said to them, Even if I give solemn edut about myself, my edut is ne’emanah, because I have da’as of where I came from and where I go, but you have no da’as of where I come from or where I go.
15 You judge according to the basar; I do not judge anyone. [1Sm 16:7]
16 But even if I judge, my psak din, my mishpat, is emes, because it is not I alone but the One having sent me, HaAv.
17 And it has been written even in your Torah, that the edut (testimony) of two is ne’emanah. [Dt 17:6; 19:15]
18 Ani Hu the one giving solemn edut (testimony) about myself and the One having sent me, HaAv, gives solemn edut about me.
19 Therefore, they were saying to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Where is HaAv of you? In reply, he said, You have da’as of neither me nor HaAv of me. If you had had da’as of me, you would have had da’as of HaAv of me.
20 These dvarim, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach spoke in the Beis HaOtzar while saying shiurim in the Beis Hamikdash, and no one arrested him, because his sha’ah had not yet come.
21 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, therefore, again to them, I go away and you will seek me, and in your chet you will go to your mavet. Where I go you are not able to come. [Dt 24:16; Ezek 3:18]
22 Therefore, those of Yehudah were saying, Does he mean he will commit suicide, because he says, Where I go you are not able to come?
23 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was saying to them, You are from mattah (below); Ani Hu from ma’lah (above). You are of the Olam Hazeh; I am not of the Olam Hazeh.
24 I said, therefore, to you that you will go to your mavet in your averos (sins), for if you do not have emunah (faith) that Ani Hu [YESHAYAH 41:4; SHEMOT 3:14-16], you will die in your chatta’im.
25 They were saying, therefore, to him, Who are you? Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Why should I even speak to you at all?
26 I have much to speak regarding you, much about you worthy of harsha’ah (condemnation), but the One having sent me is ne’eman and what I heard from Him these things I speak in the Olam Hazeh.
27 They did not have da’as that Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was speaking to them about Elohim HaAv.
28 Therefore, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, When you perform the hagbah (lifting up) of the Ben HaAdam, you will have da’as that Ani Hu [YESHAYAH 41:4; SHEMOT 3:14-16], and from myself I do nothing, but as HaAv of me taught me, these things I speak.
29 And the One having sent me is with me [MISHLE 8:30]. He did not leave me alone, because I always do the things that please Him. [Prov 8:30; Isa 50:5; 43:10 TARGUM HASHIVIM]
30 As Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was saying these things, many put their emunah in him.
31 Therefore, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was saying to the Yehudim who had emunah in him, If you remain in the dvar of me [Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach], then you are my talmidim indeed.
32 And you will have da’as of HaEmes (the Truth) and HaEmes will give you cherut (freedom). [VAYIKRA 25:10; YESHAYAH 61:1-3; 53:4-12]
33 They answered Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, We are of the zera Avraham and to no one have we ever been enslaved. How do you say, You will become Bnei Chorin (freedmen)? [Neh 9:36]
34 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Omein, omein, I say to you that everyone practicing Chet is an eved HaChet. [BERESHIS 4:7]
35 But the eved does not remain in the Bais ad Olam. HaBen remains ad Olam. [BERESHIS 21:10; SHEMOT 21:2; DEVARIM 15:12]
36 If therefore HaBen makes you Bnei Chorin, you shall be Bnei Chorin indeed.
37 I have da’as that you are zera Avraham, but you seek to kill me, because my dvar has no place in you [Jer 31:31-34].
38 What I have seen in the presence of HaAv of me, of that, I make solemn declaration. Therefore, the things you have heard from your father you do.
39 They answered and said unto him, Avinu hu Avraham. Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, If you were yeladim of Avraham, you would have been doing the ma’asei Avraham.
40 But now you are seeking to kill me, a man who has told you HaEmes, which I heard from Hashem; this was not a ma’aseh that Avraham did. [TEHILLIM 15:2]
41 You are doing the ma’asim of your Av. They said, therefore, to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, We are not mamzerim who have been born of zenunim (fornication). We have Av Echad, Hashem. [Gn 38:24; Isa 63:16; 64:8; Mal 2:10; Dt 32:6].
42 He said to them, If Hashem were the Av of you, you would have had ahavah for me, for I came forth from Hashem, and now I am present here, for I have not come on my own, but HaAv sent me [Isa 55:11].
43 Why do you not understand my dvarim? Because you are not able to give obedient shemah (hearing) to my dvar.
44 You are from the Av of you, Hasatan [BERESHIS 3:4-5; TEHILLIM 58:4(3)], and the ta’avot of your Av you want to do, for that one was a rotze’ach from Bereshis, and he has not taken a stand in HaEmes, because HaEmes is not in him. When he speaks the sheker, he speaks naturally, because he is a shakran (liar) and the av of it. [Gn 3:4 2Ch 18:21; Ps 5:6; 12:2]
45 But because I speak HaEmes, you do not have bitachon (trust) in me.
46 Who among you convicts me of chet (sin)? If I speak HaEmes, why do you not have emunah in me?
47 The one who is of Hashem hears the divrei Hashem. Therefore, you do not hear because you are not of Hashem.
48 In reply, those of Yehudah said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Did we not rightly say that you are a Shomroni (Samaritan) and that you have a shed (demon)?
49 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, I do not have a shed (demon). But I honor HaAv of me and you dishonor me.
50 But I do not seek my own kavod; there is One seeking and judging.
51 Omein, omein, I say to you, regarding the dvar of me, if anyone is shomer, he will never see mavet.
52 Therefore, those of Yehudah said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Now we have da’as that you have a shed, Avraham died and the Nevi’im; yet you say if anyone keeps the dvar of me he will never taste mavet (death). [Hisgalus 21:8]
53 Surely you are not greater than Avraham Avinu, who died? And the Nevi’im died. Whom do you make yourself to be? [Zech 1:5]
54 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, If I give myself kavod, the kavod of me is nothing. It is HaAv of me Who is giving me kavod, Whom you say, He is Eloheinu. [YESHAYAH 63:16]
55 And you have not had da’as of Him. But I have had da’as of Him. If I would say that I do not have da’as of Him, I will be like you, a shakran (liar); but I do have da’as of Him, and I keep His dvar.
56 Avraham your Av had lev same’ach to see the Yom of me [the Yom HaMoshiach], and he saw it and had simcha. [BERESHIS 18:18]
57 Therefore those of Yehudah said to him, You do not yet possess fifty years and yet you have seen Avraham Avinu?
58 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Omein, omein, I say to you, before Avraham came into being, Ani Hu. [SHEMOT 3:4; 6:3; YESHAYAH 41:4; 43:10,13]
59 Then they took up stones that they might stone him, but Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was hidden and departed out of the Beis Hamikdash. [Ex 17:4; Lv 24:16; 1Sm 30:6]

John 8
New International Version
8 1 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.(A)
2 At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them.(B) 3 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4 and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women.(C) Now what do you say?” 6 They were using this question as a trap,(D) in order to have a basis for accusing him.(E)
But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. 7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone(F) at her.”(G) 8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
9 At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. 10 Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”
11 “No one, sir,” she said.
“Then neither do I condemn you,”(H) Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”(I)
Dispute Over Jesus’ Testimony
12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am(J) the light of the world.(K) Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”(L)
13 The Pharisees challenged him, “Here you are, appearing as your own witness; your testimony is not valid.”(M)
14 Jesus answered, “Even if I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came from and where I am going.(N) But you have no idea where I come from(O) or where I am going. 15 You judge by human standards;(P) I pass judgment on no one.(Q) 16 But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me.(R) 17 In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true.(S) 18 I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.”(T)
19 Then they asked him, “Where is your father?”
“You do not know me or my Father,”(U) Jesus replied. “If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”(V) 20 He spoke these words while teaching(W) in the temple courts near the place where the offerings were put.(X) Yet no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.(Y)
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(Z) in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.”(AA)
22 This made the Jews ask, “Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, ‘Where I go, you cannot come’?”
23 But he continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.(AB) 24 I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am he,(AC) you will indeed die in your sins.”
25 “Who are you?” they asked.
“Just what I have been telling you from the beginning,” Jesus replied. 26 “I have much to say in judgment of you. But he who sent me is trustworthy,(AD) and what I have heard from him I tell the world.”(AE)
27 They did not understand that he was telling them about his Father. 28 So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up[a] the Son of Man,(AF) then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me.(AG) 29 The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone,(AH) for I always do what pleases him.”(AI) 30 Even as he spoke, many believed in him.(AJ)
Dispute Over Whose Children Jesus’ Opponents Are
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching,(AK) you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”(AL)
33 They answered him, “We are Abraham’s descendants(AM) and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set free?”
34 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.(AN) 35 Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever.(AO) 36 So if the Son sets you free,(AP) you will be free indeed. 37 I know that you are Abraham’s descendants. Yet you are looking for a way to kill me,(AQ) because you have no room for my word. 38 I am telling you what I have seen in the Father’s presence,(AR) and you are doing what you have heard from your father.[b]”(AS)
39 “Abraham is our father,” they answered.
“If you were Abraham’s children,”(AT) said Jesus, “then you would[c] do what Abraham did. 40 As it is, you are looking for a way to kill me,(AU) a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God.(AV) Abraham did not do such things. 41 You are doing the works of your own father.”(AW)
“We are not illegitimate children,” they protested. “The only Father we have is God himself.”(AX)
42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me,(AY) for I have come here from God.(AZ) I have not come on my own;(BA) God sent me.(BB) 43 Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. 44 You belong to your father, the devil,(BC) and you want to carry out your father’s desires.(BD) He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.(BE) 45 Yet because I tell the truth,(BF) you do not believe me! 46 Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don’t you believe me? 47 Whoever belongs to God hears what God says.(BG) The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”
Jesus’ Claims About Himself
48 The Jews answered him, “Aren’t we right in saying that you are a Samaritan(BH) and demon-possessed?”(BI)
49 “I am not possessed by a demon,” said Jesus, “but I honor my Father and you dishonor me. 50 I am not seeking glory for myself;(BJ) but there is one who seeks it, and he is the judge. 51 Very truly I tell you, whoever obeys my word will never see death.”(BK)
52 At this they exclaimed, “Now we know that you are demon-possessed!(BL) Abraham died and so did the prophets, yet you say that whoever obeys your word will never taste death. 53 Are you greater than our father Abraham?(BM) He died, and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?”
54 Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself,(BN) my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me.(BO) 55 Though you do not know him,(BP) I know him.(BQ) If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and obey his word.(BR) 56 Your father Abraham(BS) rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it(BT) and was glad.”
57 “You are not yet fifty years old,” they said to him, “and you have seen Abraham!”
58 “Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born,(BU) I am!”(BV) 59 At this, they picked up stones to stone him,(BW) but Jesus hid himself,(BX) slipping away from the temple grounds.

8 Och Jesus gick ut till Oljeberget.
2 Men i dagbräckningen kom han åter till helgedomen.
3 Då förde översteprästerna och fariséerna dit en kvinna som hade blivit beträdd med äktenskapsbrott; och när de hade lett henne fram,
4 sade de till honom: »Mästare, denna kvinna har på bar gärning blivit beträdd med äktenskapsbrott.
5 Nu bjuder Moses i lagen att sådana skola stenas. Vad säger då du?»
6 Detta sade de för att snärja honom, på det att de skulle få något att anklaga honom för. Då böjde Jesus sig ned och skrev med fingret på jorden.
7 Men när de stodo fast vid sin fråga, reste han sig upp och sade till dem: »Den av eder som är utan synd, han kaste första stenen på henne.»
8 Sedan böjde han sig åter ned och skrev på jorden.
9 När de hörde detta, gingo de ut, den ene efter den andre, först de äldsta, och Jesus blev lämnad allena med kvinnan, som stod där kvar.
10 Då såg Jesus upp och sade till kvinnan: »Var äro de andra? Har ingen dömt dig?»
11 Hon svarade: »Herre, ingen.» Då sade han till henne: »Icke heller jag dömer dig. Gå, och synda icke härefter.»]
12 Åter talade Jesus till dem och sade: »Jag är världens ljus; den som följer mig, han skall förvisso icke vandra i mörkret, utan skall hava livets ljus.»
13 Då sade fariséerna till honom: »Du vittnar om dig själv; ditt vittnesbörd gäller icke.»
14 Jesus svarade och sade till dem: »Om jag än vittnar om mig själv, så gäller dock mitt vittnesbörd, ty jag vet varifrån jag har kommit, och vart jag går; men I veten icke varifrån jag kommer, eller vart jag går.
15 I dömen efter köttet; jag dömer ingen.
16 Och om jag än dömer, så är min dom en rätt dom, ty jag är därvid icke ensam, utan med mig är han som har sänt mig.
17 I eder lag är ju ock skrivet att vad två människor vittna, det gäller såsom sant.
18 Här är nu jag som vittnar om mig; om mig vittnar också Fadern, som har sänt mig.
19 Då sade de till honom: »Var är då din Fader?» Jesus svarade: »I kännen varken mig eller min Fader. Om I känden mig, så känden I ock min Fader.»
20 Det var på det ställe där offerkistorna stodo som han talade dessa ord, medan han undervisade i helgedomen; men ingen bar hand på honom, ty hans stund var ännu icke kommen.
21 Åter sade han till dem: »Jag går bort, och I skolen då söka efter mig; men I skolen dö i eder synd. Dig jag går, dit kunnen I icke komma.»
22 Då sade judarna: »Icke vill han väl dräpa sig själv, eftersom han säger: 'Dit jag går, dit kunnen I icke komma'?»
23 Men han svarade dem: »I ären härnedifrån, jag är ovanifrån; I ären av denna världen, jag är icke av denna världen.
24 Därför sade jag till eder att I skullen dö i edra synder; ty om I icke tron att jag är den jag är, så skolen I dö i edra synder.»
25 Då frågade de honom: »Vem är du då?» Jesus svarade dem: »Det som jag redan från begynnelsen har uttalat för eder.
26 Mycket har jag ännu att tala och att döma i fråga om eder. Men han som har sänt mig är sannfärdig, och vad jag har hört av honom, det talar jag ut inför världen.»
27 Men de förstodo icke att det var om Fadern som han talade till dem.
28 Då sade Jesus: »När I haven upphöjt Människosonen, då skolen I första att jag är den jag är, och att jag icke gör något av mig själv, utan talar detta såsom Fadern har lärt mig.
29 Och han som har sänt mig är med mig; han har icke lämnat mig allena, eftersom jag alltid gör vad honom behagar.»
30 När han talade detta, kommo många till tro på honom.
31 Då sade Jesus till de judar som hade satt tro till honom: »Om I förbliven i mitt ord, så ären I i sanning mina lärjungar;
32 Och I skolen då förstå sanningen, och sanningen skall göra eder fria.»
33 De svarade honom: »Vi äro Abrahams säd och hava aldrig varit trälar under någon. Huru kan du då säga: 'I skolen bliva fria'?»
34 Jesus svarade dem: »Sannerligen, sannerligen säger jag eder: Var och en som gör synd, han är syndens träl.
35 Men trälen får icke förbliva i huset för alltid; sonen får förbliva där för alltid.
36 Om nu Sonen gör eder fria, så bliven i verkligen fria.
37 Jag vet att I ären Abrahams säd; men I stån efter att döda mig, eftersom mitt ord icke får någon ingång i eder.
38 Jag talar vad jag har sett hos min Fader; så gören ock I vad I haven hört av eder fader.»
39 De svarade och sade till honom: »Vår fader är ju Abraham.» Jesus svarade till dem: »Ären I Abrahams barn, så gören ock Abrahams gärningar.
40 Men nu stån I efter att döda mig, en man som har sagt eder sanningen, såsom jag har hört den av Gud. Så handlade icke Abraham.
41 Nej, I gören eder faders gärningar.» De sade till honom: »Vi äro icke födda i äktenskapsbrott. Vi hava Gud till fader och ingen annan.»
42 Jesus svarade dem: »Vore Gud eder fader, så älskaden I ju mig, ty från Gud har jag utgått, och från honom är jag kommen. Ja, jag har icke kommit av mig själv, utan det är han som har sänt mig.
43 Varför fatten I då icke vad jag talar? Jo, därför att I icke 'stån ut med' att höra på mitt ord.
44 I haven djävulen till eder fader, och vad eder fader har begär till, det viljen i göra. Han har varit en mandråpare från begynnelsen, och i sanningen står han icke, ty sanning finnes icke i honom. När han talar lögn, då talar han av sitt eget, ty han är en lögnare, ja, lögnens fader.
45 Men mig tron I icke, just därför att jag talar sanning.
46 Vilken av eder kan överbevisa mig om någon synd? Om jag alltså talar sanning, varför tron I mig då icke?
47 Den som är av Gud, han lyssnar till Guds ord; och det är därför att I icke ären av Gud som I icke lyssnen därtill.
48 Judarna svarade och sade till honom: »Hava vi icke rätt, då vi säga att du är en samarit och är besatt av en ond ande?»
49 Jesus svarade: »Jag är icke besatt av någon ond ande; fastmer hedrar jag min Fader. I åter skymfen mig.
50 Men jag söker icke min egen ära; en finnes dock som söker den och som dömer.
51 Sannerligen, sannerligen säger jag eder: Den som håller mitt ord, han skall aldrig någonsin se döden.»
52 Judarna sade till honom: »Nu förstå vi att du är besatt av en ond ande. Abraham har dött, så ock profeterna, och likväl säger du: 'Den som håller mitt ord, han skall aldrig någonsin smaka döden.'
53 Icke är väl du förmer än vår Fader Abraham? Och han har ju dött. Profeterna hava också dött. Till vem gör du då dig själv?»
54 Jesus svarade: »Om jag själv ville skaffa mig ära, så vore min ära intet; men det är min Fader som förlänar mig ära, han som I säger vara eder Gud.
55 Dock, I haven icke lärt känna honom, men jag känner honom; och om jag sade att jag icke kände honom, så bleve jag en lögnare likasom I; men jag känner honom och håller hans ord.
56 Abraham, eder fader, fröjdade sig över att han skulle få se min dag. Han fick se den och blev glad.»
57 Då sade judarna till honom: »Femtio år gammal är du icke ännu, och Abraham har du sett!»
58 Jesus sade till dem: »Sannerligen, sannerligen säger jag eder: Förrän Abraham blev till, är jag.»
59 Då togo de upp stenar för att kasta på honom. Men Jesus gömde sig undan och gick sedan ut ur helgedomen.

8 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.
14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
19 Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.
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.
23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
27 They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
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.
46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.
50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.
52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
