Κατα Ιωαννην 8
1 ιησουσ δε επορευθη εισ το οροσ των ελαιων
but Yeshua went to the Mount of Olives.
2 ορθρου δε παλιν παρεγενετο εισ το ιερον και πασ ο λαοσ ηρχετο και καθισασ εδιδασκεν αυτουσ
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.
3 αγουσιν δε οι γραμματεισ και οι φαρισαιοι προσ αυτον γυναικα εν μοιχεια καταληφθεισαν και στησαντεσ αυτην εν μεσω
The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery. Having set her in the middle,
4 λεγουσιν αυτω πειραζοντεσ διδασκαλε αυτη η γυνη κατεληφθη επ αυτοφορω μοιχευομενη
they told him, “Rabbi, we found this woman in adultery, in the very act.
5 εν δε τω νομω μωσησ ημιν ενετειλατο τασ τοιαυτασ λιθοβολεισθαι συ ουν τι λεγεισ
Now in our Torah, Moses commanded us to stone such women. What then do you say about her?”
6 τουτο δε ελεγον πειραζοντεσ αυτον ινα εχωσιν κατηγορειν αυτου ο δε ιησουσ κατω κυψασ τω δακτυλω εγραφεν εισ την γην μη προσποιουμενοσ
They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Yeshua stooped down and wrote on the ground with his finger.
7 ωσ δε επεμενον ερωτωντεσ αυτον ανακυψασ ειπεν προσ αυτουσ ο αναμαρτητοσ υμων πρωτον επ αυτην τον λιθον βαλετω
But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, “He who is without sin amongst you, let him throw the first stone at her.”
8 και παλιν κατω κυψασ εγραφεν εισ την γην
Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground with his finger.
9 οι δε ακουσαντεσ και υπο τησ συνειδησεωσ ελεγχομενοι εξηρχοντο εισ καθ εισ αρξαμενοι απο των πρεσβυτερων και κατελειφθη μονοσ ο ιησουσ και η γυνη εν μεσω ουσα
They, when they heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last. Yeshua was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle.
10 ανακυψασ δε ο ιησουσ και μηδενα θεασαμενοσ πλην τησ γυναικοσ ειπεν αυτη που εισιν εκεινοι οι κατηγοροι σου ουδεισ σε κατεκρινεν
Yeshua, standing up, saw her and said, “Woman, where are your accusers? Did no one condemn you?”
11 η δε ειπεν ουδεισ κυριε ειπεν δε ο ιησουσ ουδε εγω σε κρινω πορευου και μηκετι αμαρτανε
She said, “No one, Lord.” Yeshua said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go your way. From now on, sin no more.”
12 παλιν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ελαλησεν λεγων εγω ειμι το φωσ του κοσμου ο ακολουθων εμοι ου μη περιπατηση εν τη σκοτια αλλ εξει το φωσ τησ ζωησ
Again, therefore, Yeshua 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.”
13 ειπον ουν αυτω οι φαρισαιοι συ περι σεαυτου μαρτυρεισ η μαρτυρια σου ουκ εστιν αληθησ
The Pharisees therefore said to him, “You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid.”
14 απεκριθη ιησουσ και ειπεν αυτοισ καν εγω μαρτυρω περι εμαυτου αληθησ εστιν η μαρτυρια μου οτι οιδα ποθεν ηλθον και που υπαγω υμεισ δε ουκ οιδατε ποθεν ερχομαι και που υπαγω
Yeshua 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.
15 υμεισ κατα την σαρκα κρινετε εγω ου κρινω ουδενα
You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
16 και εαν κρινω δε εγω η κρισισ η εμη αληθησ εστιν οτι μονοσ ουκ ειμι αλλ εγω και ο πεμψασ με πατηρ
Even if I do judge, my judgement is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.
17 και εν τω νομω δε τω υμετερω γεγραπται οτι δυο ανθρωπων η μαρτυρια αληθησ εστιν
It’s also written in your Torah that the testimony of two people is valid.
18 εγω ειμι ο μαρτυρων περι εμαυτου και μαρτυρει περι εμου ο πεμψασ με πατηρ
I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.”
19 ελεγον ουν αυτω που εστιν ο πατηρ σου απεκριθη ιησουσ ουτε εμε οιδατε ουτε τον πατερα μου ει εμε ηδειτε και τον πατερα μου ηδειτε αν
They said therefore to him, “Where is your Father?” Yeshua answered, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”
20 ταυτα τα ρηματα ελαλησεν ο ιησουσ εν τω γαζοφυλακιω διδασκων εν τω ιερω και ουδεισ επιασεν αυτον οτι ουπω εληλυθει η ωρα αυτου
Yeshua spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
21 ειπεν ουν παλιν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ εγω υπαγω και ζητησετε με και εν τη αμαρτια υμων αποθανεισθε οπου εγω υπαγω υμεισ ου δυνασθε ελθειν
Yeshua 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.”
22 ελεγον ουν οι ιουδαιοι μητι αποκτενει εαυτον οτι λεγει οπου εγω υπαγω υμεισ ου δυνασθε ελθειν
The Judeans therefore said, “Will he kill himself, because he says, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come’?”
23 και ειπεν αυτοισ υμεισ εκ των κατω εστε εγω εκ των ανω ειμι υμεισ εκ του κοσμου τουτου εστε εγω ουκ ειμι εκ του κοσμου τουτου
He said to them, “You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.
24 ειπον ουν υμιν οτι αποθανεισθε εν ταισ αμαρτιαισ υμων εαν γαρ μη πιστευσητε οτι εγω ειμι αποθανεισθε εν ταισ αμαρτιαισ υμων
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.”
25 ελεγον ουν αυτω συ τισ ει και ειπεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ την αρχην ο τι και λαλω υμιν
They said therefore to him, “Who are you?” Yeshua said to them, “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
26 πολλα εχω περι υμων λαλειν και κρινειν αλλ ο πεμψασ με αληθησ εστιν καγω α ηκουσα παρ αυτου ταυτα λεγω εισ τον κοσμον
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.”
27 ουκ εγνωσαν οτι τον πατερα αυτοισ ελεγεν
They didn’t understand that he spoke to them about the Father.
28 ειπεν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ οταν υψωσητε τον υιον του ανθρωπου τοτε γνωσεσθε οτι εγω ειμι και απ εμαυτου ποιω ουδεν αλλα καθωσ εδιδαξεν με ο πατηρ μου ταυτα λαλω
Yeshua 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.
29 και ο πεμψασ με μετ εμου εστιν ουκ αφηκεν με μονον ο πατηρ οτι εγω τα αρεστα αυτω ποιω παντοτε
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.”
30 ταυτα αυτου λαλουντοσ πολλοι επιστευσαν εισ αυτον
As he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31 ελεγεν ουν ο ιησουσ προσ τουσ πεπιστευκοτασ αυτω ιουδαιουσ εαν υμεισ μεινητε εν τω λογω τω εμω αληθωσ μαθηται μου εστε
Yeshua therefore said to those Judeans who had believed him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.
32 και γνωσεσθε την αληθειαν και η αληθεια ελευθερωσει υμασ
You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
33 απεκριθησαν αυτω σπερμα αβρααμ εσμεν και ουδενι δεδουλευκαμεν πωποτε πωσ συ λεγεισ οτι ελευθεροι γενησεσθε
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’?”
34 απεκριθη αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην αμην λεγω υμιν οτι πασ ο ποιων την αμαρτιαν δουλοσ εστιν τησ αμαρτιασ
Yeshua answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.
A bondservant doesn’t live in the house forever. A son remains forever. (aiōn g165)
36 εαν ουν ο υιοσ υμασ ελευθερωση οντωσ ελευθεροι εσεσθε
If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.
37 οιδα οτι σπερμα αβρααμ εστε αλλα ζητειτε με αποκτειναι οτι ο λογοσ ο εμοσ ου χωρει εν υμιν
I know that you are Abraham’s offspring, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.
38 εγω ο εωρακα παρα τω πατρι μου λαλω και υμεισ ουν ο εωρακατε παρα τω πατρι υμων ποιειτε
I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have seen with your father.”
39 απεκριθησαν και ειπον αυτω ο πατηρ ημων αβρααμ εστιν λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ει τεκνα του αβρααμ ητε τα εργα του αβρααμ εποιειτε
They answered him, “Our father is Abraham.” Yeshua said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.
40 νυν δε ζητειτε με αποκτειναι ανθρωπον οσ την αληθειαν υμιν λελαληκα ην ηκουσα παρα του θεου τουτο αβρααμ ουκ εποιησεν
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.
41 υμεισ ποιειτε τα εργα του πατροσ υμων ειπον ουν αυτω ημεισ εκ πορνειασ ου γεγεννημεθα ενα πατερα εχομεν τον θεον
You do the works of your father.” They said to him, “We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God.”
42 ειπεν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ει ο θεοσ πατηρ υμων ην ηγαπατε αν εμε εγω γαρ εκ του θεου εξηλθον και ηκω ουδε γαρ απ εμαυτου εληλυθα αλλ εκεινοσ με απεστειλεν
Therefore Yeshua 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.
43 δια τι την λαλιαν την εμην ου γινωσκετε οτι ου δυνασθε ακουειν τον λογον τον εμον
Why don’t you understand my speech? Because you can’t hear my word.
44 υμεισ εκ του πατροσ του διαβολου εστε και τασ επιθυμιασ του πατροσ υμων θελετε ποιειν εκεινοσ ανθρωποκτονοσ ην απ αρχησ και εν τη αληθεια ουχ εστηκεν οτι ουκ εστιν αληθεια εν αυτω οταν λαλη το ψευδοσ εκ των ιδιων λαλει οτι ψευστησ εστιν και ο πατηρ αυτου
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.
45 εγω δε οτι την αληθειαν λεγω ου πιστευετε μοι
But because I tell the truth, you don’t believe me.
46 τισ εξ υμων ελεγχει με περι αμαρτιασ ει δε αληθειαν λεγω δια τι υμεισ ου πιστευετε μοι
Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?
47 ο ων εκ του θεου τα ρηματα του θεου ακουει δια τουτο υμεισ ουκ ακουετε οτι εκ του θεου ουκ εστε
He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don’t hear, because you are not of God.”
48 απεκριθησαν ουν οι ιουδαιοι και ειπον αυτω ου καλωσ λεγομεν ημεισ οτι σαμαρειτησ ει συ και δαιμονιον εχεισ
Then the Judeans answered him, “Don’t we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?”
49 απεκριθη ιησουσ εγω δαιμονιον ουκ εχω αλλα τιμω τον πατερα μου και υμεισ ατιμαζετε με
Yeshua answered, “I don’t have a demon, but I honour my Father and you dishonour me.
50 εγω δε ου ζητω την δοξαν μου εστιν ο ζητων και κρινων
But I don’t seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.
51 αμην αμην λεγω υμιν εαν τισ τον λογον τον εμον τηρηση θανατον ου μη θεωρηση εισ τον αιωνα (aiōn g165)
Most certainly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death.” (aiōn g165)
52 ειπον ουν αυτω οι ιουδαιοι νυν εγνωκαμεν οτι δαιμονιον εχεισ αβρααμ απεθανεν και οι προφηται και συ λεγεισ εαν τισ τον λογον μου τηρηση ου μη γευσηται θανατου εισ τον αιωνα (aiōn g165)
Then the Judeans 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)
53 μη συ μειζων ει του πατροσ ημων αβρααμ οστισ απεθανεν και οι προφηται απεθανον τινα σεαυτον συ ποιεισ
Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?”
54 απεκριθη ιησουσ εαν εγω δοξαζω εμαυτον η δοξα μου ουδεν εστιν εστιν ο πατηρ μου ο δοξαζων με ον υμεισ λεγετε οτι θεοσ ημων εστιν
Yeshua 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.
55 και ουκ εγνωκατε αυτον εγω δε οιδα αυτον και εαν ειπω οτι ουκ οιδα αυτον εσομαι ομοιοσ υμων ψευστησ αλλ οιδα αυτον και τον λογον αυτου τηρω
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.
56 αβρααμ ο πατηρ υμων ηγαλλιασατο ινα ιδη την ημεραν την εμην και ειδεν και εχαρη
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it and was glad.”
57 ειπον ουν οι ιουδαιοι προσ αυτον πεντηκοντα ετη ουπω εχεισ και αβρααμ εωρακασ
The Judeans therefore said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old! Have you seen Abraham?”
58 ειπεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην αμην λεγω υμιν πριν αβρααμ γενεσθαι εγω ειμι
Yeshua said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM.”
59 ηραν ουν λιθουσ ινα βαλωσιν επ αυτον ιησουσ δε εκρυβη και εξηλθεν εκ του ιερου διελθων δια μεσου αυτων και παρηγεν ουτωσ
Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Yeshua hid himself and went out of the temple, having gone through the middle of them, and so passed by.
