31 Jesus Iēsous therefore oun said legō · ho to pros the ho Jews Ioudaios who had put their trust pisteuō in him autos, “ If ean you hymeis continue menō in en · ho my emos word logos, · ho you are eimi truly alēthōs my egō disciples mathētēs, 32 and kai you will come to know ginōskō the ho truth alētheia, and kai the ho truth alētheia will set you hymeis free eleutheroō.” 33 They replied apokrinomai to pros him autos, “ We are eimi descendants sperma of Abraham Abraam and kai have douleuō never pōpote been slaves douleuō to anyone oudeis! How pōs can you sy say legō, ‘ You will become ginomai free eleutheros’?”
34 Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai them autos, · ho “ I tell legō you hymeis the solemn amēn truth amēn, everyone pas who ho commits poieō · ho sin hamartia is eimi a slave to ho sin hamartia. 35 A ho · de slave does not ou remain menō in en the ho house oikia for eis all ho time aiōn, but a ho son hyios remains menō for eis all ho time aiōn. 36 If ean therefore oun the ho Son hyios sets you hymeis free eleutheroō, you will be eimi free eleutheros indeed ontōs. 37 I know oida that hoti you are eimi Abraham’ s Abraam descendants sperma; but alla you are intent zēteō on killing apokteinō me egō, because hoti · ho my emos teaching logos · ho makes no ou headway chōreō in en you hymeis. 38 I speak about laleō the things hos I egō have seen horaō while with para my ho Father patēr, but kai you hymeis do poieō that which hos you have heard akouō from para your ho father patēr.”
39 They answered apokrinomai · kai him autos, saying legō, · ho “ Our hēmeis father patēr is eimi Abraham Abraam!” Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, · ho “ If ei you were eimi really Abraham’ s Abraam children teknon, · ho you would be doing poieō the ho deeds ergon of ho Abraham Abraam. 40 But de now nyn you are intent zēteō on killing apokteinō me egō, a man anthrōpos who hos has told laleō you hymeis the ho truth alētheia that hos I heard akouō from para · ho God theos. This houtos is not ou what Abraham Abraam did poieō! 41 You hymeis are doing poieō the ho deeds ergon of ho your hymeis father patēr.” They said legō to him autos, “ We hēmeis have gennaō not ou been born gennaō as a result ek of fornication porneia; we have echō only one heis father patēr, · ho God theos himself.” 42 Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, · ho “ If ei · ho God theos were eimi your hymeis Father patēr, you would an love agapaō me egō, for gar I egō came exerchomai from ek · ho God theos and kai now I am here hēkō. I have erchomai not oude come erchomai on apo my emautou own , but alla he ekeinos sent apostellō me egō. 43 Why dia tis do you ginōskō not ou understand ginōskō the ho way I emos speak lalia? · ho It is because hoti you are unable ou to grasp akouō · ho my emos message logos. · ho 44 You hymeis belong eimi to ek your ho father patēr the ho devil diabolos, and kai your will is thelō to carry out poieō the ho desires epithumia of ho your hymeis father patēr. He ekeinos was eimi a murderer anthrōpoktonos from apo the beginning archē and kai never ou did stand stēkō in en the ho truth alētheia, because hoti there is eimi no ou truth alētheia in en him autos. When hotan he lies laleō, · ho he is giving expression laleō to ek · ho his idios own nature, for hoti he is eimi a liar pseustēs and kai the ho father patēr of lies autos. 45 Yet de because hoti I egō am speaking legō the ho truth alētheia, you do not ou believe pisteuō me egō. 46 Who tis among ek you hymeis can prove me egō guilty elenchō of peri any sin hamartia? If ei I am speaking legō the truth alētheia, why dia tis don’ t ou you hymeis believe pisteuō me egō? 47 Whoever ho belongs eimi to ek · ho God theos listens to akouō the ho words rhēma of ho God theos.

48 The ho Jews Ioudaios answered apokrinomai · kai him autos, saying legō, “Are we hēmeis not ou correct kalōs in saying legō that hoti you sy are eimi a Samaritan Samaritēs and kai have echō a demon daimonion?” 49 Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, “ I egō do echō not ou have echō a demon daimonion; but alla I honor timaō · ho my egō Father patēr, and kai you hymeis dishonor atimazō me egō. 50 I egō · de am not ou seeking zēteō · ho glory doxa for myself egō; there is eimi one ho who seeks zēteō it and kai he is the one who judges krinō. 51 I tell legō you hymeis the solemn amēn truth amēn, if ean anyone tis keeps tēreō · ho my emos word logos, he will never ou mē see theōreō death thanatos.” 52 The ho Jews Ioudaios therefore oun said legō to him autos, “ Now nyn we know ginōskō that hoti you have echō a demon daimonion! Abraham Abraam died apothnēskō, and kai so did the ho prophets prophētēs, yet kai you sy say legō, ‘ If ean anyone tis keeps tēreō · ho my egō word logos, he will never ou mē taste geuomai death thanatos.’ 53 Surely you sy are eimi not mē greater megas than ho our hēmeis father patēr Abraham Abraam, are you ? He hostis died apothnēskō as kai did apothnēskō the ho prophets prophētēs. Who tis are you making poieō yourself seautou out to be?” 54 Jesus Iēsous replied apokrinomai, “ If ean I egō glorify doxazō myself emautou, · ho my egō glory doxa amounts to eimi nothing oudeis. It is eimi · ho my egō Father patēr who ho glorifies doxazō me egō, of whom hos you hymeis say legō, ‘ He is eimi our hēmeis God theos.’ 55 And kai you have not ou known ginōskō him autos, but de I egō know oida him autos.

The Truth Will Set You Free
31 So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “(A)If you continue in My word, then you are truly My (B)disciples; 32 and (C)you will know the truth, and (D)the truth will set you free.” 33 They answered Him, “(E)We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, ‘You will become free’?”
34 Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly I say to you, (F)everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 Now (G)the slave does not remain in the house forever; (H)the son does remain forever. 36 So if the Son (I)sets you free, you really will be free. 37 I know that you are (J)Abraham’s descendants; yet (K)you are seeking to kill Me, because My word [a]has no place in you. 38 I speak of the things which I have seen [b]with My Father; therefore you also do the things which you heard from (L)your father.”
39 They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is (M)our father.” Jesus *said to them, “(N)If you are Abraham’s children, do the deeds of Abraham. 40 But as it is, (O)you are seeking to kill Me, a man who has (P)told you the truth, which I heard from God; this Abraham did not do. 41 You are doing the deeds of (Q)your father.” They said to Him, “We were not born as a result of sexual immorality; (R)we have one Father: God.” 42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, (S)you would love Me, (T)for I came forth from God and am here; for I have (U)not even come [c]on My own, but [d](V)He sent Me. 43 Why do you not understand [e](W)what I am saying? It is because you cannot (X)listen to My word. 44 (Y)You are of (Z)your father the devil, and (AA)you want to do the desires of your father. (AB)He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because (AC)there is no truth in him. Whenever he tells [f]a lie, he (AD)speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of [g]lies. 45 But because (AE)I say the truth, you do not believe Me. 46 Which one of you convicts Me of sin? If (AF)I speak truth, why do you not believe Me? 47 (AG)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.”
48 (AH)The Jews answered and said to Him, “Do we not rightly say that You are a (AI)Samaritan, and You (AJ)have a demon?” 49 Jesus answered, “I do not (AK)have a demon; on the contrary, I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me. 50 But (AL)I am not seeking My glory; there is One who seeks it, and judges. 51 Truly, truly I say to you, if anyone (AM)follows My word, he will never (AN)see death.” 52 (AO)The Jews said to Him, “Now we know that You (AP)have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets as well; and yet You say, ‘If anyone (AQ)follows My word, he will never (AR)taste of death.’ 53 You (AS)are not greater than our father Abraham, who died, are You? The prophets died too. Whom do You make Yourself out to be?” 54 Jesus answered, “(AT)If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; (AU)it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God’; 55 and (AV)you have not come to know Him, (AW)but I know Him. And if I say that I do not know Him, I will be (AX)a liar like you; (AY)but I do know Him, and I (AZ)follow His word. 56 (BA)Your father Abraham was (BB)overjoyed that he would see My day, and he saw it and rejoiced.” 57 (BC)So the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and You have seen Abraham?” 58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham [h]was born, [i](BD)I am.” 59 Therefore they (BE)picked up stones to throw at Him, but Jesus (BF)hid Himself and left the temple grounds.
