(
(John 8 KJV) "Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. {2} And early in
the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto
him; and he sat down, and taught them. {3} And the scribes and Pharisees
brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in
the midst, {4} They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in
adultery, in the very act. {5} Now Moses in the law commanded us, that
such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? {6} 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} So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and
said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a
stone at her. {8} And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
{9} And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience,
went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and
Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. {10} When
Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto
her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
{11} She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I
condemn thee: go, and sin no more. {12} Then spake Jesus again unto
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 unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy
record is not true. {14} Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I
bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came,
and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
{15} Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. {16} And yet if I judge,
my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent
me. {17} It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men
is true. {18} I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that
sent me beareth witness of me. {19} Then said they unto him, Where is
thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had
known me, ye should have known my Father also. {20} These words spake
Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands
on him; for his hour was not yet come. {21} Then said Jesus again unto
them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins:
whither I go, ye cannot come. {22} Then said the Jews, Will he kill
himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come. {23} And he
said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this
world; I am not of this world. {24} I said therefore unto you, that ye
shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die
in your sins. {25} Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus
saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
{26} 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 of
him. {27} They understood not that he spake to them of the Father. {28}
Then said Jesus unto 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} 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 spake these words, many believed on him.
{31} Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed
on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; {32}
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
{33} They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage
to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? {34} Jesus answered
them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the
servant of sin. {35} And the servant abideth not in the house for ever:
but the Son abideth ever. {36} If the Son therefore shall make you free,
ye shall be free indeed. {37} I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye
seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. {38} I speak that
which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with
your father. {39} They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our
father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would
do the works of Abraham. {40} But now ye seek to kill me, a man that
hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not
Abraham. {41} Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We
be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. {42} Jesus
said unto 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 do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear
my word. {44} 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} And
because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. {46} Which of you
convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
{47} He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not,
because ye are not of God. {48} Then answered the Jews, and said unto
him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? {49}
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do
dishonour me. {50} And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that
seeketh and judgeth. {51} Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep
my saying, he shall never see death. {52} Then said the Jews unto him,
Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets;
and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.
{53} Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the
prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? {54} Jesus answered, If I
honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me;
of whom ye say, that he is your God: {55} Yet ye have not known him; but
I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like
unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying. {56} Your father Abraham
rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. {57} Then said the
Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen
Abraham? {58} Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Before Abraham was, I am. {59} Then took they 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."
