Old/New Testament

8 ¹ but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

The Pharisees Bring Jesus a Woman Caught In Adultery

² Now at dawn, He again arrived in the temple. And all the people were coming to Him. And having sat-down, He was teaching them. ³ And the scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman having been caught in adultery. And having stood her in the middle, ⁴ they say to Him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in the-act, while committing-adultery. ⁵ Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to be stoning such women^[a]. What then do You say?” ⁶ Now they were saying this testing Him, in order that they might have grounds to be accusing Him. But Jesus, having stooped down, was writing in the ground with His finger. ⁷ But as they were continuing-on asking Him, He straightened-up and said to them, “Let the sinless one among you throw a stone at her first”. ⁸ And again having stooped-down, He was writing in the ground. ⁹ And the ones, having heard it, were going out one by one, beginning from the older ones. And He was left-behind alone, and the woman being in the middle. ¹⁰ And Jesus, having straightened up, said to her, “Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?” ¹¹ And the one said, “No one, Sir”. And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn^[b] you. Go. And from now on, do not be sinning any longer”.

I Am The Light of The World, To Which I And My Father Are Testifying

¹² Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. The one following Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the light of ^[c] life”. ¹³ So the Pharisees said to Him, “You are testifying about Yourself— Your testimony is not true”. ¹⁴ Jesus responded and said to them, “Even if I am testifying about Myself, My testimony is true, because I know from where I came, and where I am going. But you do not know from where I come, or where I am going. ¹⁵ You are judging according to the flesh. I am not judging anyone. ¹⁶ But even if I am judging, My judgment is true, because I am not alone— but it is I and the Father having sent Me. ¹⁷ But even in your Law, it has been written that the testimony of two people is true. ¹⁸ I am the One testifying about Myself. And the Father having sent Me is testifying about Me”. ¹⁹ So they were saying to Him, “Where is Your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither Me nor My Father. If you knew Me, you would also know My Father”. ²⁰ These words He spoke in the treasury, while teaching in the temple. And no one seized Him, because His hour had not yet come.

I Am Going Away. Unless You Believe That I Am The One, You Will Die In Your Sins

²¹ Then He said again to them, “I am going away. And you will seek Me. And you will die in your sin. Where I am going, you are not able to come”. ²² So the Jews were saying, “He will not kill Himself, will He— because He says, ‘Where I am going, you are not able to come’?” ²³ And He was saying to them, “You are from below, I am from above. You are from this world, I am not from this world. ²⁴ Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am^[d] the One, you will die in your sins”.

I Am What I Have Been Saying I Am From The Beginning

²⁵ So they were saying to Him, “Who^[e] are You?” Jesus said to them, “What^[f] thing from the beginning I am indeed telling you! ²⁶ I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However, the One having sent Me is true. And what things I heard from Him— these things I am speaking to the world”. ²⁷ They did not know that He was speaking to them about the Father.
