Now in the law Moses has commanded us to stone such; thou therefore, what sayest thou?
Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?”
But this they said proving him, that they might have [something] to accuse him [of]. But Jesus, having stooped down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.
But when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up and said to them, Let him that is without sin among you first cast the stone at her.
And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.”
And again stooping down he wrote on the ground.

Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”
And she said, No one, sir. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.”]]
Jesus the Light of the World
Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
I Am the Light of the World
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true.
So the Pharisees said to him, “You are bearing witness about yourself; your testimony is not true.”
Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is true, because I know whence I came and whither I go: but ye know not whence I come and whither I go.
Jesus answered, “Even if I do bear witness about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going, but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.
Ye judge according to the flesh, I judge no one.
You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.
And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me.
And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true:
In your Law it is written that the testimony of two people is true.
I am [one] who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me.
I am the one who bears witness about myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness about me.”
They said to him therefore, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father.
They said to him therefore, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”
These words spoke he in the treasury, teaching in the temple; and no one took him, for his hour was not yet come.
These words he spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple; but no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
He said therefore again to them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin; where I go ye cannot come.
So he said to them again, “I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot come.”
The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he says, Where I go ye cannot come?
So the Jews said, “Will he kill himself, since he says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come’?”
And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above. Ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
He said to them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.
I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins; for unless ye shall believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins.”
They said therefore to him, Who art thou? [And] Jesus said to them, Altogether that which I also say to you.
So they said to him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “Just what I have been telling you from the beginning.
I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he that has sent me is true, and I, what I have heard from him, these things I say to the world.
I have much to say about you and much to judge, but he who sent me is true, and I declare to the world what I have heard from him.”
They knew not that he spoke to them of the Father.
They did not understand that he had been speaking to them about the Father.
Jesus therefore said to them, When ye shall have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things.
So Jesus said to them, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but speak just as the Father taught me.
And he that has sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, because I do always the things that are pleasing to him.
And he who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.”
As he spoke these things many believed on him.
As he was saying these things, many believed in him.
The Truth will Set You Free
Jesus therefore said to the Jews who believed him, If ye abide in my word, ye are truly my disciples;
Jesus therefore said to the Jews who believed him, If ye abide in my word, ye are truly my disciples;
The Truth Will Set You Free
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples,
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples,
and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.
and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
They answered him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never been under bondage to any one; how sayest thou, Ye shall become free?
They answered him, “We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, ‘You will become free’?”
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Every one that practises sin is the bondman of sin.
Now the bondman abides not in the house for ever: the son abides for ever.
The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever.
If therefore the Son shall set you free, ye shall be really free.
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word has no entrance in you.
I know that you are offspring of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me because my word finds no place in you.
I speak what I have seen with my Father, and ye then do what ye have seen with your father.
I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father.”
They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham;
You Are of Your Father the Devil
They answered him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would be doing the works Abraham did,
They answered him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s children, you would be doing the works Abraham did,
but now ye seek to kill me, a man who has spoken the truth to you, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham.
but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.
Ye do the works of your father. They said [therefore] to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, God.
You are doing the works your father did.” They said to him, “We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father — even God.”
The Children of the Devil
Jesus said to them, If God were your father ye would have loved me, for I came forth from God and am come [from him]; for neither am I come of myself, but *he* has sent me.
Jesus said to them, If God were your father ye would have loved me, for I came forth from God and am come [from him]; for neither am I come of myself, but *he* has sent me.
Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and I am here. I came not of my own accord, but he sent me.
Why do ye not know my speech? Because ye cannot hear my word.
Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to hear my word.
Ye are of the devil, as [your] father, and ye desire to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks falsehood, he speaks of what is his own; for he is a liar and its father:
You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
and because I speak the truth, ye do not believe me.
But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
Which of you convinces me of sin? If I speak truth, why do ye not believe me?
Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?
He that is of God hears the words of God: therefore ye hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
Whoever is of God hears the words of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God.”
Before Abraham Was, I Am
The Jews answered and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast a demon?
The Jews answered and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast a demon?
Before Abraham Was, I Am
The Jews answered him, “Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?”
The Jews answered him, “Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?”
Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.
But I do not seek my own glory: there is he that seeks and judges.
Yet I do not seek my own glory; there is One who seeks it, and he is the judge.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If any one shall keep my word, he shall never see death.
Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death.”
The Jews therefore said to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham has died, and the prophets, and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he shall never taste death.
The Jews said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon! Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet you say, ‘If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.’
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who has died? and the prophets have died: whom makest thou thyself?
Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets died! Who do you make yourself out to be?”
Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who glorifies me, [of] whom ye say, He is our God.
And ye know him not; but I know him; and if I said, I know him not, I should be like you, a liar. But I know him, and I keep his word.
But you have not known him. I know him. If I were to say that I do not know him, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and I keep his word.
Your father Abraham exulted in that he should see my day, and he saw and rejoiced.
Your father Abraham rejoiced that he would see my day. He saw it and was glad.”
The Jews therefore said to him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.”
