And the scribes and the Pharisees bring [to him] a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman caught in adultery, and having set her in the center of the court,
they say to him, Teacher, this woman has been taken in the very act, committing adultery.
they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in adultery, in the very act.
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; what then 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.
They were saying this, testing Him, so that they might have grounds for accusing Him. But Jesus stooped down and with His finger wrote 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.
But when they persisted in asking Him, He straightened up, and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.”
But they, having heard [that], went out one by one beginning from the elder ones until the last; and Jesus was left alone and the woman standing there.
When they heard it, they began to go out one by one, beginning with the older ones, and He was left alone, and the woman, where she was, in the center of the court.
And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee?
Straightening up, Jesus said to her, “Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn 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, “I do not condemn you, either. Go. 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.
Jesus Is the Light of the World
Then Jesus again 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.”
The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true.
So the Pharisees said to Him, “You are testifying 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 and said to 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 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 am not judging anyone.
And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me.
“But even if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone in it, but I and the Father who sent Me.
And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true:
“Even in your law it has been written that the testimony of two men is true.
I am [one] who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me.
“I am He who testifies about Myself, and the Father who sent Me testifies 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.
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 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; and no one seized 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.
Then He said again to them, “I go away, and you will seek Me, and 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 were saying, “Surely He will not kill Himself, will He, 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.
And He was saying 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.
“Therefore I said to you that you will 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 were saying to Him, “Who are You?” Jesus said to them, “What have I been saying to 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 many things to speak and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world.”
They knew not that he spoke to them of the Father.
They did not realize 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, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and I do nothing on My own initiative, but I speak these things 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 spoke these things, many came to believe 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 Make You Free
So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine;
and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.
and you will know the truth, and the truth will make 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 Abraham’s descendants and have never yet 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.
Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is the slave 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 does remain forever.
If therefore the Son shall set you free, ye shall be really free.
“So if the Son makes 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 Abraham’s descendants; yet you seek to kill Me, because My word has 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 the things which I have seen with My Father; therefore you also do the things which you 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;
They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, “If you are Abraham’s children, do the deeds of Abraham.
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 as it is, you are seeking to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God; this Abraham did not do.
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 deeds of your father.” They said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father: 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 proceeded forth and have come from God, for I have not even come on My own initiative, but He sent Me.
Why do ye not know my speech? Because ye cannot hear my word.
“Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you cannot 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 you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
and because I speak the truth, ye do not believe me.
“But because I speak 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 speak 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.
“He who is of God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not hear them, because 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?
The Jews answered and said to Him, “Do we not say rightly 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.
“But I do not seek My glory; there is One who seeks and judges.
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, and the prophets also; and You say, ‘If anyone keeps My word, he will never taste of death.’
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who has died? and the prophets have died: whom makest thou thyself?
“Surely You are not greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets died too; whom 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.
Jesus answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you 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.
and you have not come to know Him, but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know Him and keep His word.
Your father Abraham exulted in that he should see my day, and he saw and rejoiced.
“Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.”
The Jews therefore said to him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and hast thou seen Abraham?
So the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You 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 born, I am.”
