Iesus answered and sayde vnto them: Though I beare recorde of my selfe yet my recorde is true: for I knowe whece I came and whyther I goo. But ye cannot tell whece I come and whyther I goo.
15 Vos secundum carnem iudicatis: ego non iudico quemquam:
Ye iudge after ye flesshe. I iudge no man
16 et si iudico ego, iudicium meum verum est, quia solus non sum: sed ego, et qui misit me, Pater.

Then sayde Iesus agayne vnto them. I goo my waye and ye shall seke me and shall dye in youre synnes. Whyther I goo thyther can ye not come.

And he sayde vnto the: ye are fro beneth I am from above. Ye are of this worlde I am not of this worlde.

27 Et non cognoverunt quia Patrem eius dicebat Deum.
They understode not that he spake of his father.

Then sayde Iesus vnto them: when ye have lyft vp an hye the sonne of man then shall ye knowe that I am he and that I do nothinge of my selfe: but as my father hath taught me even so I speake:

and he that sent me is with me. The father hath not lefte me alone for I do alwayes those thinges that please him.
30 Haec illo loquente, multi crediderunt in eum.

32 et cognoscetis veritatem, et veritas liberabit vos.

33 Responderunt ei: Semen Abrahae sumus, et nemini servivimus umquam: quomodo tu dicis: Liberi eritis?
They answered him: We be Abrahams seede and were never bonde to eny man: why sayest thou then ye shalbe made fre.
34 Respondit eis Iesus: Amen, amen dico vobis: quia omnis, qui facit peccatum, servus est peccati.
Iesus answered them: verely verely I saye vnto you that whosoever committeth synne is the servaunt of synne.
And the servaunt abydeth not in the housse for ever: But ye sonne abydeth ever. (aiōn g165)
36 si ergo vos filius liberaverit, vere liberi eritis.
If the sonne therfore shall make you fre then are ye fre in dede.
37 Scio quia filii Abrahae estis: sed quaeritis me interficere, quia sermo meus non capit in vobis.
I knowe that ye are Abrahams seed: But ye seke meanes to kyll me because my sayinges have no place in you.
38 Ego quod vidi apud Patrem meum, loquor: et vos quae vidistis apud patrem vestrum, facitis.
I speake that I have sene with my father: and ye do that which ye have sene with youre father.
39 Responderunt, et dixerunt ei: Pater noster Abraham est. Dicit eis Iesus: Si filii Abrahae estis, opera Abrahae facite.
They answered and sayde vnto him: Abraham is oure father. Iesus sayde vnto them. If ye were Abrahams chyldren ye wolde do the dedes of Abraham.
40 Nunc autem quaeritis me interficere, hominem, qui veritatem vobis locutus sum, quam audivi a Deo: hoc Abraham non fecit.
But now ye goo about io kyll me a man that have tolde you the truthe which I have herde of god: this dyd not Abraham.
41 Vos facitis opera patris vestri. Dixerunt itaque ei: Nos ex fornicatione non sumus nati: unum patrem habemus Deum.
Ye do the dedes of youre father. Then sayde they vnto him: we were not borne of fornicacion. We have one father which is God.
42 Dixit ergo eis Iesus: Si Deus pater vester esset: diligeretis utique et me. ego enim ex Deo processi, et veni: neque enim a meipso veni, sed ille me misit.
Iesus sayde vnto them: yf God were youre father then wolde ye love me. For I proceaded forthe and come from God. Nether came I of my selfe but he sent me.
43 Quare loquelam meam non cognoscitis? Quia non potestis audire sermonem meum.
Why do ye not knowe my speache? Even because ye cannot abyde the hearynge of my wordes.
44 Vos ex patre diabolo estis: et desideria patris vestri vultis facere. ille homicida erat ab initio, et in veritate non stetit: quia non est veritas in eo: cum loquitur mendacium, ex propriis loquitur, quia mendax est, et pater eius.
Ye are of youre father the devyll and the lustes of youre father ye will folowe. He was a murtherer from the beginnynge and aboode not in the trueth because ther is no trueth in him. When he speaketh a lye then speaketh he of his awne. For he is a lyar and the father therof.
45 Ego autem si veritatem dico, non creditis mihi.
And because I tell you ye trueth therfore ye beleve me not.
46 Quis ex vobis arguet me de peccato? Si veritatem dico vobis, quare non creditis mihi?
Which of you can rebuke me of synne? If I saye ye trueth why do not ye beleve me?
47 Qui ex Deo est, verba Dei audit. Propterea vos non auditis, quia ex Deo non estis.
He that is of God heareth goddes wordes Ye therfore heare them not because ye are not of God.
48 Responderunt ergo Iudaei, et dixerunt ei: Nonne bene dicimus nos quia Samaritanus es tu, et daemonium habes?
Then answered the Iewes and sayde vnto him: Saye we not well that thou arte a Samaritane and hast the devyll?
49 Respondit Iesus: Ego daemonium non habeo: sed honorifico Patrem meum, et vos inhonorastis me.
Iesus answered: I have not the devyll: but I honour my father and ye have dishonoured me.
50 Ego autem non quaero gloriam meam: est qui quaerat, et iudicet.
I seke not myne awne prayse: but ther is one that seketh and iudgeth.
51 Amen, amen dico vobis: si quis sermonem meum servaverit, mortem non videbit in aeternum. (aiōn g165)
Verely verely I saye vnto you yf a man kepe my sayinges he shall never se deeth. (aiōn g165)
52 Dixerunt ergo Iudaei: Nunc cognovimus quia daemonium habes. Abraham mortuus est, et Prophetae: et tu dicis: Si quis sermonem meum servaverit, non gustabit mortem in aeternum. (aiōn g165)
Then sayde the Iewes to him: Now knowe we that thou hast the devyll. Abraha is deed and also the Prophetes: and yet thou sayest yf a man kepe my sayinge he shall never tast of deeth. (aiōn g165)
53 Numquid tu maior es patre nostro Abraham, qui mortuus est? et Prophetae mortui sunt. Quem te ipsum facis?
Arte thou greater then oure father Abraham which is deed? and the Prophetes are deed. Whome makest thou thy selfe?
54 Respondit Iesus: Si ego glorifico meipsum, gloria mea nihil est: est Pater meus, qui glorificat me, quem vos dicitis quia Deus vester est,
Iesus answered: Yf I honoure my selfe myne honoure is nothinge worth. It is my father that honoureth me which ye saye is youre God
55 et non cognovistis eum: ego autem novi eum: Et si dixero quia non scio eum, ero similis vobis, mendax. Sed scio eum, et sermonem eius servo.
and ye have not knowen him: but I knowe him. And yf I shuld saye I knowe him not I shuld be a lyar lyke vnto you. But I knowe him and kepe his sayinge.
56 Abraham pater vester exultavit ut videret diem meum: vidit, et gavisus est.
Youre father Abraham was glad to se my daye and he sawe it and reioysed.
57 Dixerunt ergo Iudaei ad eum: Quinquaginta annos nondum habes, et Abraham vidisti?
Then sayde the Iewes vnto him: thou arte not yet. l. yere olde and hast thou sene Abraham?
58 Dixit eis Iesus: Amen, amen dico vobis, antequam Abraham fieret, ego sum.
Iesus sayd vnto them: Verely verely I saye vnto you: yer Abraham was I am.
59 Tulerunt ergo lapides, ut iacerent in eum: Iesus autem abscondit se, et exivit de templo.
Then toke they vp stones to caste at him. But Iesus hid him selfe and went out of ye temple.
