John 8
1 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
Jesus went to the mount of Olives:
2 Now very early in the morning, he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him. He sat down and taught them.
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and he sat down and taught them.
3 The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery. Having set her in the middle,
And the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman taken in adultery: and when they had set her in the midst,
4 they told him, “Teacher, we found this woman in adultery, in the very act.
They say to him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now in our law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. What then do you say about her?”
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned; but what sayest thou?
6 They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with his finger.
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 But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her.”
So when they continued asking him, he raised himself, and said to them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground with his finger.
And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 They, when they heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last. Jesus was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle.
And they who heard [it], being convicted by [their own] conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, [even] to the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 Jesus, standing up, saw her and said, “Woman, where are your accusers? Did no one condemn you?”
When Jesus had raised himself, and saw none but the woman, he said to her, Woman, where are those thy accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, “No one, Lord.” Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go your way. From now on, sin no more.”
She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Then Jesus spoke again to 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 to him, “You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid.”
The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou testifiest concerning thyself; thy testimony is not true.
14 Jesus answered them, “Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you don’t know where I came from, or where I am going.
Jesus answered and said to them, Though I testify concerning myself, [yet] my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
15 You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
Ye judge after the flesh, I judge no man.
16 Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.
And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 It’s also written in your law that the testimony of two people is valid.
It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.”
I am one that testifieth concerning myself; and the Father that sent me, testifieth concerning me.
19 They said therefore to him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”
Then said they to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also.
20 Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, for his hour was not yet come.
21 Jesus said therefore again to them, “I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you can’t come.”
Then said Jesus again to them, I am going away, and ye will seek me, and will die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.
22 The Jews therefore said, “Will he kill himself, because he says, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come’?”
Then said the Jews, will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
23 He said to them, “You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.
And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”
I said therefore to you, that ye will die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am [he], ye will die in your sins.
25 They said therefore to him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
Then said they to him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith to them, Even [the same] that I said to you from the beginning.
26 I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However, he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world.”
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 from him.
27 They didn’t understand that he spoke to them about the Father.
They understood not that he spoke to them concerning the Father.
28 Jesus therefore said to them, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as my Father taught me, I say these things.
Then said Jesus to 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 He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn’t left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.”
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 spoke these things, many believed in him.
As he spoke these words, many believed on him.
31 Jesus therefore said to those Jews who had believed him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.
Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed on him, If ye continue in my word, ye are my disciples indeed;
32 You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, “We are Abraham’s offspring, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How do you say, ‘You will be made free’?”
They answered him, We are Abraham's offspring, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Whoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
And the servant abideth not in the house for ever, [but] the Son abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
36 If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 I know that you are Abraham’s offspring, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.
I know that ye are Abraham's offspring; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have seen with your father.”
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
39 They answered him, “Our father is Abraham.” Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.
They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. Abraham didn’t do this.
But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham.
41 You do the works of your father.” They said to him, “We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God.”
Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.
42 Therefore Jesus said to them, “If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I haven’t come of myself, but he sent me.
Jesus said to 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 don’t you understand my speech? Because you can’t hear my word.
Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my word.
44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn’t stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.
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 But because I tell the truth, you don’t believe me.
And because I tell [you] the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?
Which of you convicteth me of sin? And if I speak the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don’t hear, because you are not of God.”
He that is of God, heareth God's words: ye therefore hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
48 Then the Jews answered him, “Don’t we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?”
Then answered the Jews, and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?
49 Jesus answered, “I don’t have a demon, but I honor my Father and you dishonor me.
Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and ye dishonor me.
50 But I don’t seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.
And I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Verily, verily, I say to you, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
52 Then the Jews said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, as did the prophets; and you say, ‘If a man keeps my word, he will never taste of death.’ (aiōn g165)
Then said the Jews to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never taste death. (aiōn g165)
53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?”
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is our God.
Jesus answered, If I honor myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that honoreth me, of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55 You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, ‘I don’t know him,’ I would be like you, a liar. But I know him and keep his word.
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 you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it and was glad.”
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw [it], and was glad.
57 The Jews therefore said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old! Have you seen Abraham?”
Then said the Jews to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM.”
Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple, having gone through the middle of them, and so passed by.
Then they took 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.
