La Biblia de las Américas

La mujer sorprendida en adulterio

8 Pero Jesús se fue al Monte de los Olivos(A). 2 Y al amanecer, vino otra vez al templo, y todo el pueblo venía a Él; y sentándose, les enseñaba(B). 3 Los escribas y los fariseos trajeron* a una mujer sorprendida en adulterio, y poniéndola en medio, 4 le dijeron*: Maestro, esta mujer ha sido sorprendida en el acto mismo del adulterio. 5 Y en la ley, Moisés nos ordenó apedrear a esta clase de mujeres(C); ¿tú, pues, qué dices? 6 Decían esto, probándole(D), para tener de qué acusarle(E). Pero Jesús se inclinó y con el dedo escribía en la tierra. 7 Pero como insistían en preguntarle, Jesús se enderezó(F) y les dijo: El que de vosotros esté sin pecado, sea el primero(G) en tirarle una piedra(H). 8 E inclinándose de nuevo, escribía en la tierra. 9 Pero al oír ellos esto, se fueron retirando uno a uno comenzando por los de mayor edad, y dejaron solo a Jesús y a la mujer que estaba en medio. 10 Enderezándose(I) Jesús, le dijo: Mujer, ¿dónde están ellos? ¿Ninguno te ha condenado? 11 Y ella respondió: Ninguno, Señor. Entonces Jesús le dijo: Yo tampoco te condeno(J). Vete; desde ahora no peques más(K).

Jesús, la luz del mundo

12 Jesús les habló otra vez, diciendo: Yo soy la luz del mundo(L); el que me sigue no andará en tinieblas, sino que tendrá la luz(M) de la vida. 13 Entonces los fariseos le dijeron: Tú das testimonio de ti mismo; tu testimonio no es verdadero[a](N). 14 Respondió Jesús y les dijo: Aunque yo doy testimonio(O) de mí mismo, mi testimonio es verdadero, porque yo sé de dónde he venido y adónde voy(P); pero vosotros no sabéis de dónde vengo(Q) ni adónde voy. 15 Vosotros juzgáis según la carne[b](R); yo no juzgo a nadie(S). 16 Pero si yo juzgo, mi juicio es verdadero; porque no soy yo solo, sino yo y el Padre que[c] me envió(T). 17 Aun en vuestra ley está escrito que el testimonio de dos hombres es verdadero[d](U). 18 Yo soy el que doy testimonio de mí mismo, y el Padre que me envió da testimonio de mí(V). 19 Entonces le decían: ¿Dónde está tu Padre? Jesús respondió: No me conocéis a mí ni a mi Padre. Si me conocierais a mí, conoceríais también a mi Padre(W). 20 Estas palabras las pronunció en el lugar del tesoro(X), cuando enseñaba en el templo(Y); y nadie le prendió, porque todavía no había llegado su hora(Z).

Advertencias a los incrédulos

21 Entonces les dijo de nuevo: Yo me voy, y me buscaréis(AA), y moriréis en vuestro pecado(AB); adonde yo voy, vosotros no podéis ir. 22 Por eso los judíos(AC) decían: ¿Acaso se va a suicidar, puesto que dice: «Adonde yo voy, vosotros no podéis ir(AD)»? 23 Y Jesús les decía: Vosotros sois de abajo, yo soy de arriba(AE); vosotros sois de este mundo(AF), yo no soy de este mundo(AG). 24 Por eso os dije que moriréis en vuestros pecados; porque si no creéis que yo soy[e](AH), moriréis en vuestros pecados(AI). 25 Entonces le decían: ¿Tú quién eres? Jesús les dijo: ¿Qué os he estado diciendo desde el principio[f]? 26 Tengo mucho que decir y juzgar de vosotros, pero el que me envió es veraz(AJ); y yo, las cosas que oí de Él, estas digo al mundo(AK). 27 No comprendieron que les hablaba del Padre. 28 Por eso Jesús dijo: Cuando levantéis al Hijo del Hombre(AL), entonces sabréis que yo soy[g](AM) y que no hago nada por mi cuenta(AN), sino que hablo estas cosas como el Padre me enseñó. 29 Y El que me envió está conmigo; no me ha dejado[h] solo(AO), porque yo siempre hago lo que le agrada(AP). 30 Al hablar estas cosas, muchos creyeron en Él(AQ).

Los verdaderos hijos de Abraham

31 Entonces Jesús decía a los judíos que habían creído en Él: Si vosotros permanecéis en mi palabra(AR), verdaderamente sois mis discípulos(AS); 32 y conoceréis la verdad(AT), y la verdad os hará libres(AU). 33 Ellos le contestaron: Somos descendientes de Abraham(AV) y nunca hemos sido esclavos de nadie. ¿Cómo dices tú: «Seréis libres»? 34 Jesús les respondió: En verdad, en verdad os digo que todo el que comete pecado es esclavo del pecado(AW); 35 y el esclavo no queda en la casa para siempre(AX); el hijo sí permanece para siempre(AY). 36 Así que, si el Hijo os hace libres(AZ), seréis realmente libres. 37 Sé que sois descendientes de Abraham(BA); y sin embargo, procuráis matarme(BB) porque mi palabra no tiene cabida en vosotros[i]. 38 Yo hablo lo que he visto con mi Padre[j]; vosotros, entonces, hacéis también lo que oísteis de vuestro padre(BC). 39 Ellos le contestaron, y le dijeron: Abraham es nuestro padre(BD). Jesús les dijo*: Si sois hijos de Abraham(BE), haced las obras de Abraham. 40 Pero ahora procuráis matarme(BF), a mí[k] que os he dicho la verdad que oí de Dios(BG). Esto no lo hizo Abraham. 41 Vosotros hacéis las obras de vuestro padre(BH). Ellos le dijeron: Nosotros no nacimos de fornicación; tenemos un Padre, es decir, Dios(BI). 42 Jesús les dijo: Si Dios fuera vuestro Padre, me amaríais(BJ), porque yo salí de Dios y vine de Él(BK), pues no he venido por mi propia iniciativa(BL), sino que Él[l] me envió(BM). 43 ¿Por qué no entendéis lo que digo[m](BN)? Porque no podéis oír mi palabra(BO). 44 Sois de vuestro padre el diablo y queréis hacer los deseos de vuestro padre(BP). Él fue un homicida desde el principio(BQ), y no se ha mantenido en la verdad porque no hay verdad en él. Cuando habla mentira[n], habla de su propia naturaleza(BR), porque es mentiroso(BS) y el padre de la mentira[o]. 45 Pero porque yo digo la verdad(BT), no me creéis. 46 ¿Quién de vosotros me prueba que tengo pecado? Y si digo verdad(BU), ¿por qué vosotros no me creéis? 47 El que es de Dios escucha las palabras de Dios; por eso vosotros no escucháis, porque no sois de Dios(BV).

Jesús, anterior a Abraham

48 Contestaron los judíos(BW), y le dijeron: ¿No decimos con razón que tú eres samaritano(BX) y que tienes un demonio(BY)? 49 Jesús respondió: Yo no tengo ningún demonio(BZ), sino que honro a mi Padre, y vosotros me deshonráis a mí. 50 Pero yo no busco mi gloria(CA); hay Uno que la busca, y juzga. 51 En verdad, en verdad os digo que si alguno guarda mi palabra(CB), no verá jamás la muerte(CC). 52 Los judíos(CD) le dijeron: Ahora sí sabemos que tienes un demonio(CE). Abraham murió, y también los profetas, y tú dices: «Si alguno guarda mi palabra(CF) no probará jamás la muerte(CG)». 53 ¿Eres tú acaso mayor que nuestro padre(CH) Abraham que murió? Los profetas también murieron; ¿quién crees que eres?[p] 54 Jesús respondió: Si yo mismo me glorifico(CI), mi gloria no es nada; es mi Padre el que me glorifica(CJ), de quien vosotros decís: «Él es nuestro Dios». 55 Y vosotros no le habéis conocido(CK), pero yo le conozco; y si digo que no le conozco seré un mentiroso como vosotros(CL); pero sí le conozco(CM) y guardo su palabra(CN). 56 Vuestro padre Abraham(CO) se regocijó esperando ver[q] mi día; y lo vio y se alegró(CP). 57 Por esto los judíos(CQ) le dijeron: Aún no tienes cincuenta años, ¿y has visto a Abraham? 58 Jesús les dijo: En verdad, en verdad os digo: antes que Abraham naciera[r], yo soy(CR). 59 Entonces tomaron piedras para tirárselas(CS), pero Jesús se ocultó[s](CT) y salió del templo[t].

Lexham English Bible

A Woman Caught in Adultery

8 But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 2 Now early in the morning he came again to the temple courts.[a] And all the people were coming,[b] and he sat down and[c] began to teach[d] them.

3 Now the scribes and the Pharisees brought to him a woman[e] caught in adultery. And standing her in their midst, 4 they said to him, testing him,[f] “Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery! 5 Now in the law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?” 6 (Now they were saying this to test him, so that they would have an occasion[g] to bring charges against him.) But Jesus, bending down, began to write[h] with his[i] finger on the ground, taking no notice.[j] 7 And when they persisted in asking him, straightening up he said[k] to them, “The one of you without sin, let him throw the first stone at her!” 8 And bending down again, he wrote on the ground. 9 Now when they[l] heard it,[m] being convicted by their conscience,[n] they began to depart,[o] one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus[p] was left alone—and the woman who was in their midst. 10 So Jesus, straightening up and seeing no one except the woman,[q] said to her, “Where are those accusers of yours?[r] Does no one condemn you?” 11 And she said, “No one, Lord.” So Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go, and[s] sin no more.”]][t]

Jesus, the Light of the World

12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world! The one who follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” 13 So the Pharisees said to him, “You testify concerning yourself! Your testimony is not true.” 14 Jesus answered and said to them, “Even if I testify concerning myself, my testimony is true, because I know where I have come from and where I am going. But you do not know where I have come from or where I am going. 15 You judge according to externals; I do not judge anyone. 16 But even if I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me. 17 And even in your law it is written that the testimony of two men is true.[u] 18 I am the one who testifies concerning myself, and the Father who sent me testifies concerning me.”

19 So they were saying to him, “Where is your father?” Jesus replied, “You know neither me nor my Father! If you had known me, you would have known my Father also.” 20 He spoke these words by the treasury while[v] teaching in the temple courts,[w] and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.

Jesus Predicts His Death

21 So he said to them again, “I am going away, and you will seek me and will die in your sin. Where I am going you cannot come!” 22 Then the Jews began to say,[x] “Perhaps he will kill himself, because he is saying, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’” 23 And he said to them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are from this world; I am not from this world. 24 Thus I said to you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

25 So they began to say to him,[y] “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “What[z] I have been saying to you from the beginning. 26 I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but the one who sent me is true, and the things which I heard from him, these things I say to the world.” 27 (They did not know that he was speaking to them about the Father.)

28 Then Jesus said,[aa] “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will recognize that I am he, and I do nothing from myself, but just as the Father taught me, I say these things. 29 And the one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do the things that are pleasing to him.” 30 While[ab] he was saying these things, many believed in him.

The Truth Will Set You Free

31 Then Jesus said to those Jews who had believed him, “If you continue in my word you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” 33 They replied to him, “We are descendants of Abraham and have not been enslaved to anyone at any time. How do you say, ‘You will become free’?” 34 Jesus replied to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, that everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 And the slave does not remain in the household forever;[ac] the son remains forever.[ad] 36 So if the son sets you free, you will be truly free. 37 I know that you are descendants of Abraham. But you are seeking to kill me, because my word makes no progress among you. 38 I speak the things that I have seen with the Father; so also you do the things that you have heard from the Father.”

The Priority of Jesus Over Abraham

39 They answered and said to him, “Abraham is our father!” Jesus said to them, “If you are children of Abraham, do the deeds of Abraham! 40 But now you are seeking to kill me, a man who spoke to you the truth which I heard from God. This Abraham did not do. 41 You are doing the deeds of your father!”

They said[ae] to him, “We were not born from sexual immorality! We have one father, God!” 42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your father, you would love me, for I have come forth from God and have come. For I have not come from myself, but that one sent me. 43 Why[af] do you not understand my way of speaking? Because you are not able to listen to my message. 44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father! That one was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand firm in the truth, because truth is not in him. Whenever he speaks the lie, he speaks from his own nature,[ag] because he is a liar and the father of lies.[ah] 45 But because I am telling the truth, you do not believe me. 46 Who among you convicts me concerning sin? If I am telling the truth, why[ai] do you not believe me? 47 The one who is from God listens to the words of God. Because of this you do not listen—because you are not of God.”

48 The Jews answered and said to him, “Do we not correctly say that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?” 49 Jesus replied, “I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me! 50 But I do not seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges! 51 Truly, truly I say to you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never experience death forever.”[aj]

52 The Jews[ak] said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon! Abraham and the prophets died, and you say, ‘If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death forever.’[al] 53 You are not greater than our father Abraham who died, are you?[am] And the prophets died! Who do you make yourself to be?” 54 Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. The one who glorifies me is my Father, about whom you say, ‘He is our God.’ 55 And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I were to say that I do not know him, I would be a liar like you! But I know him and I keep his word. 56 Abraham your father rejoiced that he would see my day, and he saw it[an] and was glad.”

57 So the Jews said to him, “You are[ao] not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?” 58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham was, I am!” 59 Then they picked up stones in order to throw them[ap] at him. But Jesus was hidden and went out of the temple courts.[aq]
