Jesus <G2424> went <G4198> <G5675> unto <G1519> the mount <G3735> of Olives <G1636>.
2
And <G1161> early in the morning <G3722> he came <G3854> <G5633> again <G3825> into <G1519> the temple <G2411>, and <G2532> all <G3956> the people <G2992> came <G2064> <G5711> unto <G4314> him <G0846>; and <G2532> he sat down <G2523> <G5660>, and taught <G1321> <G5707> them <G0846>.
3
And <G1161> the scribes <G1122> and <G2532> Pharisees <G5330> brought <G0071> <G5719> unto <G4314> him <G0846> a woman <G1135> taken <G2638> <G5772> in <G1722> adultery <G3430>; and <G2532> when they had set <G2476> <G5660> her <G0846> in <G1722> the midst <G3319>,
4
They say <G3004> <G5719> unto him <G0846>, Master <G1320>, this <G3778> woman <G1135> was taken <G2638> <G5681> in adultery <G3431> <G5746>, in the very act <G1888>.
5
Now <G1161> Moses <G3475> in <G1722> the law <G3551> commanded <G1781> <G5662> us <G2254>, that such <G5108> should be stoned <G3036> <G5745>: but <G3767> what <G5101> sayest <G3004> <G5719> thou <G4771>?
6
This <G5124> they said <G3004> <G5707>, tempting <G3985> <G5723> him <G0846>, that <G2443> they might have <G2192> <G5725> to accuse <G2723> <G5721> him <G0846>. But <G1161> Jesus <G2424> stooped <G2955> <G5660> down <G2736>, and with [his] finger <G1147> wrote <G1125> <G5707> on <G1519> the ground <G1093>, [as though he heard <G4364> <G5740> them not <G3361>.
7
So <G1161> when <G5613> they continued <G1961> <G5707> asking <G2065> <G5723> him <G0846>, he lifted up himself <G0352> <G5660>, and said <G2036> <G5627> unto <G4314> them <G0846>, He that is without sin <G0361> among you <G5216>, let him <G0906> <G0000> first <G4413> cast <G0906> <G5628> a stone <G3037> at <G1909> her <G0846>.
8
And <G2532> again <G3825> he stooped <G2955> <G5660> down <G2736>, and wrote <G1125> <G5707> on <G1519> the ground <G1093>.
9
And <G1161> they which heard <G0191> <G5660> [it], <G2532> being convicted <G1651> <G5746> by <G5259> [their own] conscience <G4893>, went out <G1831> <G5711> one by one <G1527>, beginning <G0756> <G5671> at <G0575> the eldest <G4245>, [even] unto <G2193> the last <G2078>: and <G2532> Jesus <G2424> was left <G2641> <G5681> alone <G3441>, and <G2532> the woman <G1135> standing <G2476> <G5761> in <G1722> the midst <G3319>.
10
When <G1161> Jesus <G2424> had lifted up himself <G0352> <G5660>, and <G2532> saw <G2300> <G5666> none <G3367> but <G4133> the woman <G1135>, he said <G2036> <G5627> unto her <G0846>, Woman <G1135>, where <G4226> are <G1526> <G5748> those <G1565> thine <G4675> accusers <G2725>? hath <G2632> <G0000> no man <G3762> condemned <G2632> <G5656> thee <G4571>?
11
She said <G2036> <G5627>, No man <G3762>, Lord <G2962>. And <G1161> Jesus <G2424> said <G2036> <G5627> unto her <G0846>, Neither <G3761> do <G2632> <G0000> I <G1473> condemn <G2632> <G5719> thee <G4571>: go <G4198> <G5737>, and <G2532> sin <G0264> <G5720> no more <G3371>.
12
Then <G3767> spake <G2980> <G5656> Jesus <G2424> again <G3825> unto them <G0846>, saying <G3004> <G5723>, I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> the light <G5457> of the world <G2889>: he that followeth <G0190> <G5723> me <G1698> shall <G4043> <G0000> not <G3364> walk <G4043> <G5692> in <G1722> darkness <G4653>, but <G0235> shall have <G2192> <G5692> the light <G5457> of life <G2222>.
13
The Pharisees <G5330> therefore <G3767> said <G2036> <G5627> unto him <G0846>, Thou <G4771> bearest record <G3140> <G5719> of <G4012> thyself <G4572>; thy <G4675> record <G3141> is <G2076> <G5748> not <G3756> true <G0227>.
14
Jesus <G2424> answered <G0611> <G5662> and <G2532> said <G2036> <G5627> unto them <G0846>, Though <G2579> I <G1473> bear record <G3140> <G5725> of <G4012> myself <G1683>, [yet] my <G3450> record <G3141> is <G2076> <G5748> true <G0227>: for <G3754> I know <G1492> <G5758> whence <G4159> I came <G2064> <G5627>, and <G2532> whither <G4226> I go <G5217> <G5719>; but <G1161> ye <G5210> cannot <G3756> tell <G1492> <G5758> whence <G4159> I come <G2064> <G5736>, and <G2532> whither <G4226> I go <G5217> <G5719>.
15
Ye <G5210> judge <G2919> <G5719> after <G2596> the flesh <G4561>; I <G1473> judge <G2919> <G5719> no <G3756> man <G3762>.
16
And <G1161> yet <G2532> if <G1437> I <G1473> judge <G2919> <G5725>, my <G1699> judgment <G2920> is <G2076> <G5748> true <G0227>: for <G3754> I am <G1510> <G5748> not <G3756> alone <G3441>, but <G0235> I <G1473> and <G2532> the Father <G3962> that sent <G3992> <G5660> me <G3165>.
17
It is <G1125> <G0000> also <G1161> written <G1125> <G5769> in <G1722> your <G5212> law <G3551>, that <G3754> the testimony <G3141> of two <G1417> men <G0444> is <G2076> <G5748> true <G0227>.
18
I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> one that bear witness <G3140> <G5723> of <G4012> myself <G1683>, and <G2532> the Father <G3962> that sent <G3992> <G5660> me <G3165> beareth witness <G3140> <G5719> of <G4012> me <G1700>.
19
Then <G3767> said they <G3004> <G5707> unto him <G0846>, Where <G4226> is <G2076> <G5748> thy <G4675> Father <G3962>? Jesus <G2424> answered <G0611> <G5662>, Ye <G1492> <G0000> neither <G3777> know <G1492> <G5758> me <G1691>, nor <G3777> my <G3450> Father <G3962>: if <G1487> ye had known <G1492> <G5715> me <G1691>, <G2532> ye should have known <G1492> <G5715> my <G3450> Father <G3962> also <G0030>.
20
These <G5023> words <G4487> spake <G2980> <G5656> Jesus <G2424> in <G1722> the treasury <G1049>, as he taught <G1321> <G5723> in <G1722> the temple <G2411>: and <G2532> no man <G3762> laid hands <G4084> <G5656> on him <G0846>; for <G3754> his <G0846> hour <G5610> was <G2064> <G0000> not yet <G3768> come <G2064> <G5715>.
21
Then <G3767> said <G2036> <G5627> Jesus <G2424> again <G3825> unto them <G0846>, I <G1473> go my way <G5217> <G5719>, and <G2532> ye shall seek <G2212> <G5692> me <G3165>, and <G2532> shall die <G0599> <G5695> in <G1722> your <G5216> sins <G0266>: whither <G3699> I <G1473> go <G5217> <G5719>, ye <G5210> cannot <G3756> <G1410> <G5736> come <G2064> <G5629>.
22
Then <G3767> said <G3004> <G5707> the Jews <G2453>, Will he kill <G3385> <G0615> <G5692> himself <G1438>? because <G3754> he saith <G3004> <G5719>, Whither <G3699> I <G1473> go <G5217> <G5719>, ye <G5210> cannot <G3756> <G1410> <G5736> come <G2064> <G5629>.
23
And <G2532> he said <G2036> <G5627> unto them <G0846>, Ye <G5210> are <G2075> <G5748> from <G1537> beneath <G2736>; I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> from <G1537> above <G0507>: ye <G5210> are <G2075> <G5748> of <G1537> this <G5127> world <G2889>; I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> not <G3756> of <G1537> this <G5127> world <G2889>.
24
I said <G2036> <G5627> therefore <G3767> unto you <G5213>, that <G3754> ye shall die <G0599> <G5695> in <G1722> your <G5216> sins <G0266>: for <G1063> if <G3362> <G0000> ye believe <G4100> <G5661> not <G3362> that <G3754> I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> [he], ye shall die <G0599> <G5695> in <G1722> your <G5216> sins <G0266>.
25
Then <G3767> said they <G3004> <G5707> unto him <G0846>, Who <G5101> art <G1488> <G5748> thou <G4771>? And <G2532> Jesus <G2424> saith <G2036> <G5627> unto them <G0846>, Even <G3748> <G2532> [the same] that I said <G2980> <G5719> unto you <G5213> from the beginning <G0746>.
26
I have <G2192> <G5719> many things <G4183> to say <G2980> <G5721> and <G2532> to judge <G2919> <G5721> of <G4012> you <G5216>: but <G0235> he that sent <G3992> <G5660> me <G3165> is <G2076> <G5748> true <G0227>; and I <G2504> speak <G3004> <G5719> to <G1519> the world <G2889> those things <G5023> which <G3739> I have heard <G0191> <G5656> of <G3844> him <G0846>.
27
They understood <G1097> <G5627> not <G3756> that <G3754> he spake <G3004> <G5707> to them <G0846> of the Father <G3962>.
28
Then <G5119> said <G2036> <G5627> Jesus <G2424> unto them <G0846>, When <G3752> ye have lifted up <G5312> <G5661> the Son <G5207> of man <G0444>, then <G3767> shall ye know <G1097> <G5695> that <G3754> I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> [he], and <G2532> [that] I do <G4160> <G5719> nothing <G3762> of <G0575> myself <G1683>; but <G0235> as <G2531> my <G3450> Father <G3962> hath taught <G1321> <G5656> me <G3165>, I speak <G2980> <G5719> these things <G5023>.
29
And <G2532> he that sent <G3992> <G5660> me <G3165> is <G2076> <G5748> with <G3326> me <G1700>: the Father <G3962> hath <G0863> <G0000> not <G3756> left <G0863> <G5656> me <G3165> alone <G3441>; for <G3754> I <G1473> do <G4160> <G5719> always <G3842> those things that please <G0701> him <G0846>.
30
As he spake <G2980> <G5723> these words <G5023>, many <G4183> believed <G4100> <G5656> on <G1519> him <G0846>.
31
Then <G3767> said <G3004> <G5707> Jesus <G2424> to <G4314> those Jews <G2453> which <G3588> believed <G4100> <G5761> on him <G0846>, If <G1437> ye <G5210> continue <G3306> <G5661> in <G1722> my <G1699> word <G3056>, [then] are ye <G2075> <G5748> my <G3450> disciples <G3101> indeed <G0230>;
32
And <G2532> ye shall know <G1097> <G5695> the truth <G0225>, and <G2532> the truth <G0225> shall make <G1659> <G0000> you <G5209> free <G1659> <G5692>.
33
They answered <G0611> <G5662> him <G0846>, We be <G2070> <G5748> Abraham's <G0011> seed <G4690>, and <G2532> were <G1398> <G0000> never <G4455> in bondage <G1398> <G5758> to any man <G3762>: how <G4459> sayest <G3004> <G5719> thou <G4771>, <G3754> Ye shall be made <G1096> <G5695> free <G1658>?
34
Jesus <G2424> answered <G0611> <G5662> them <G0846>, Verily <G0281>, verily <G0281>, I say <G3004> <G5719> unto you <G5213>, <G3754> Whosoever <G3956> committeth <G4160> <G5723> sin <G0266> is <G2076> <G5748> the servant <G1401> of sin <G0266>.
35
And <G1161> the servant <G1401> abideth <G3306> <G5719> not <G3756> in <G1722> the house <G3614> for <G1519> ever <G0165>: [but] the Son <G5207> abideth <G3306> <G5719> <G1519> ever <G0165>.
36
If <G1437> the Son <G5207> therefore <G3767> shall make <G1659> <G0000> you <G5209> free <G1659> <G5661>, ye shall be <G2071> <G5704> free <G1658> indeed <G3689>.
37
I know <G1492> <G5758> that <G3754> ye are <G2075> <G5748> Abraham's <G0011> seed <G4690>; but <G0235> ye seek <G2212> <G5719> to kill <G0615> <G5658> me <G3165>, because <G3754> my <G1699> word <G3056> hath <G5562> <G0000> no <G3756> place <G5562> <G5719> in <G1722> you <G5213>.
38
I <G1473> speak <G2980> <G5719> that which <G3739> I have seen <G3708> <G5758> with <G3844> my <G3450> Father <G3962>: and <G2532> ye <G5210> do <G4160> <G5719> that <G3767> which <G3739> ye have seen <G3708> <G5758> with <G3844> your <G5216> father <G3962>.
39
They answered <G0611> <G5662> and <G2532> said <G2036> <G5627> unto him <G0846>, Abraham <G0011> is <G2076> <G5748> our <G2257> father <G3962>. Jesus <G2424> saith <G3004> <G5719> unto them <G0846>, If <G1487> ye were <G2258> <G5713> Abraham's <G0011> children <G5043>, ye would do <G4160> <G5707> <G0302> the works <G2041> of Abraham <G0011>.
40
But <G1161> now <G3568> ye seek <G2212> <G5719> to kill <G0615> <G5658> me <G3165>, a man <G0444> that <G3739> hath told <G2980> <G5758> you <G5213> the truth <G0225>, which <G3739> I have heard <G0191> <G5656> of <G3844> God <G2316>: this <G5124> did <G4160> <G5656> not <G3756> Abraham <G0011>.
41
Ye <G5210> do <G4160> <G5719> the deeds <G2041> of your <G5216> father <G3962>. Then <G3767> said they <G2036> <G5627> to him <G0846>, We <G2249> be <G1080> <G0000> not <G3756> born <G1080> <G5769> of <G1537> fornication <G4202>; we have <G2192> <G5719> one <G1520> Father <G3962>, [even] God <G2316>.
42
Jesus <G2424> <G3767> said <G2036> <G5627> unto them <G0846>, If <G1487> God <G2316> were <G2258> <G5713> your <G5216> Father <G3962>, ye would <G0302> love <G0025> <G5707> me <G1691>: for <G1063> I <G1473> proceeded forth <G1831> <G5627> and <G2532> came <G2240> <G5719> from <G1537> God <G2316>; neither <G3761> <G1063> came I <G2064> <G5754> of <G0575> myself <G1683>, but <G0235> he <G1565> sent <G0649> <G5656> me <G3165>.
43
Why <G1302> do ye <G1097> <G0000> not <G3756> understand <G1097> <G5719> my <G1699> speech <G2981>? [even] because <G3754> ye cannot <G3756> <G1410> <G5736> hear <G0191> <G5721> my <G1699> word <G3056>.
44
Ye <G5210> are <G2075> <G5748> of <G1537> [your] father <G3962> the devil <G1228>, and <G2532> the lusts <G1939> of your <G5216> father <G3962> ye will <G2309> <G5719> do <G4160> <G5721>. He <G1565> was <G2258> <G5713> a murderer <G0443> from <G0575> the beginning <G0746>, and <G2532> abode <G2476> <G5707> <G5758> not <G3756> in <G1722> the truth <G0225>, because <G3754> there is <G2076> <G5748> no <G3756> truth <G0225> in <G1722> him <G0846>. When <G3752> he speaketh <G2980> <G5725> a lie <G5579>, he speaketh <G2980> <G5719> of <G1537> his own <G2398>: for <G3754> he is <G2076> <G5748> a liar <G5583>, and <G2532> the father <G3962> of it <G0846>.
45
And <G1161> because <G3754> I <G1473> tell <G3004> <G5719> [you] the truth <G0225>, ye believe <G4100> <G5719> me <G3427> not <G3756>.
46
Which <G5101> of <G1537> you <G5216> convinceth <G1651> <G5719> me <G3165> of <G4012> sin <G0266>? And <G1161> if <G1487> I say <G3004> <G5719> the truth <G0225>, why <G1302> do <G4100> <G0000> ye <G5210> not <G3756> believe <G4100> <G5719> me <G3427>?
47
He that is <G5607> <G5752> of <G1537> God <G2316> heareth <G0191> <G5719> God's <G2316> words <G4487>: ye <G5210> therefore <G5124> <G1223> hear <G0191> <G5719> [them] not <G3756>, because <G3754> ye are <G2075> <G5748> not <G3756> of <G1537> God <G2316>.
48
Then <G3767> answered <G0611> <G5662> the Jews <G2453>, and <G2532> said <G2036> <G5627> unto him <G0846>, Say <G3004> <G5719> we <G2249> not <G3756> well <G2573> that <G3754> thou <G4771> art <G1488> <G5748> a Samaritan <G4541>, and <G2532> hast <G2192> <G5719> a devil <G1140>?
49
Jesus <G2424> answered <G0611> <G5662>, I <G1473> have <G2192> <G5719> not <G3756> a devil <G1140>; but <G0235> I honour <G5091> <G5719> my <G3450> Father <G3962>, and <G2532> ye <G5210> do dishonour <G0818> <G5719> me <G3165>.
50
And <G1161> I <G1473> seek <G2212> <G5719> not <G3756> mine own <G3450> glory <G1391>: there is <G2076> <G5748> one that seeketh <G2212> <G5723> and <G2532> judgeth <G2919> <G5723>.
51
Verily <G0281>, verily <G0281>, I say <G3004> <G5719> unto you <G5213>, If <G1437> a man <G5100> keep <G5083> <G5661> my <G1699> saying <G3056>, he shall <G2334> <G0000> never <G3364> <G1519> <G0165> see <G2334> <G5661> death <G2288>.
52
Then <G3767> said <G2036> <G5627> the Jews <G2453> unto him <G0846>, Now <G3568> we know <G1097> <G5758> that <G3754> thou hast <G2192> <G5719> a devil <G1140>. Abraham <G0011> is dead <G0599> <G5627>, and <G2532> the prophets <G4396>; and <G2532> thou <G4771> sayest <G3004> <G5719>, If <G1437> a man <G5100> keep <G5083> <G5661> my <G3450> saying <G3056>, he shall <G1089> <G0000> never <G3364> <G1519> <G0165> taste <G1089> <G5695> of death <G2288>.
53
Art <G3361> <G1488> <G5748> thou <G4771> greater than <G3187> our <G2257> father <G3962> Abraham <G0011>, which <G3748> is dead <G0599> <G5627>? and <G2532> the prophets <G4396> are dead <G0599> <G5627>: whom <G5101> makest <G4160> <G5719> thou <G4771> thyself <G4572>?
54
Jesus <G2424> answered <G0611> <G5662>, If <G1437> I <G1473> honour <G1392> <G5719> myself <G1683>, my <G3450> honour <G1391> is <G2076> <G5748> nothing <G3762>: it is <G2076> <G5748> my <G3450> Father <G3962> that <G3739> honoureth <G1392> <G5723> me <G3165>; of whom <G3739> ye <G5210> say <G3004> <G5719>, that <G3754> he is <G2076> <G5748> your <G5216> God <G2316>:
55
Yet <G2532> ye have <G1097> <G0000> not <G3756> known <G1097> <G5758> him <G0846>; but <G1161> I <G1473> know <G1492> <G5758> him <G0846>: and <G2532> if <G1437> I should say <G2036> <G5632>, <G3754> I know <G1492> <G5758> him <G0846> not <G3756>, I shall be <G2071> <G5704> a liar <G5583> like <G3664> unto you <G5216>: but <G0235> I know <G1492> <G5758> him <G0846>, and <G2532> keep <G5083> <G5719> his <G0846> saying <G3056>.
56
Your <G5216> father <G3962> Abraham <G0011> rejoiced <G0021> <G5662> to <G2443> see <G1492> <G5632> my <G1699> day <G2250>: and <G2532> he saw <G1492> <G5627> [it], and <G2532> was glad <G5463> <G5644>.
57
Then <G3767> said <G2036> <G5627> the Jews <G2453> unto <G4314> him <G0846>, Thou art <G2192> <G5719> not yet <G3768> fifty <G4004> years old <G2094>, and <G2532> hast thou seen <G3708> <G5758> Abraham <G0011>?
58
Jesus <G2424> said <G2036> <G5627> unto them <G0846>, Verily <G0281>, verily <G0281>, I say <G3004> <G5719> unto you <G5213>, Before <G4250> Abraham <G0011> was <G1096> <G5635>, I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748>.
59
Then <G3767> took they up <G0142> <G5656> stones <G3037> to <G2443> cast <G0906> <G5632> at <G1909> him <G0846>: but <G1161> Jesus <G2424> hid himself <G2928> <G5648>, and <G2532> went <G1831> <G5627> out of <G1537> the temple <G2411>, going <G1330> <G5631> through <G1223> the midst <G3319> of them <G0846>, and <G2532> so <G3779> passed by <G3855> <G5707>.
