John 8:12-20
12Once againG3825G3767, JesusG2424 spokeG2980 toG846 the people and saidG3004, “IG1473 amG1510 theG3588 lightG5457 of theG3588 worldG2889. WhoeverG3588 followsG190 MeG1473 will never walkG3756G3361G4043 inG1722 theG3588 darknessG4653, butG235 will haveG2192 theG3588 lightG5457 of lifeG2222.”
13SoG3767 theG3588 PhariseesG5330 saidG2036 to HimG846, “YouG4771 are testifyingG3140 aboutG4012 YourselfG4572; YourG4771 testimonyG3141 isG1510 notG3756 validG227.”
14JesusG2424 repliedG611G2532G2036G846, “Even ifG2579 IG1473 testifyG3140 aboutG4012 MyselfG1683, MyG1473 testimonyG3141 isG1510 validG227, becauseG3754 I knowG1492 whereG4159 I came fromG2064 andG2532 whereG4226 I am goingG5217. ButG1161 youG4771 do notG3756 knowG1492 whereG4159 I came fromG2064 orG2228 whereG4226 I am goingG5217. 15YouG4771 judgeG2919 according toG2596 theG3588 fleshG4561; IG1473 judgeG2919 no oneG3756G3762. 16ButG1161 evenG2532 ifG1437 IG1473 do judgeG2919, MyG1699 judgmentG2920 isG1510 trueG228, becauseG3754 I amG1510 notG3756 aloneG3441; IG1473 am with theG3588 FatherG3962 who sentG3992 MeG1473.1 17EvenG2532 inG1722 yourG5212 own LawG3551 it is writtenG1125 thatG3754 theG3588 testimonyG3141 of twoG1417 menG444 isG1510 validG227.2 18IG1473 amG1510 One who testifiesG3140 aboutG4012 MyselfG1683, andG2532 theG3588 FatherG3962, who sentG3992 MeG1473, also testifiesG3140 aboutG4012 MeG1473.”
19“WhereG4226 isG1510 YourG4771 FatherG3962?” they askedG2036 HimG846.
“You do not knowG1492G3777 MeG1473 or MyG1473 FatherG3962,” JesusG2424 answeredG611. “IfG1487 you knewG1492 MeG1473, you would knowG302G1492 MyG1473 FatherG3962 as wellG2532.”
20He spokeG2980 theseG3778 wordsG4487 while teachingG1321 inG1722 theG3588 templeG2411 courts, nearG1722 theG3588 treasuryG1049. YetG2532 no oneG3762 seizedG4084 HimG846, becauseG3754 HisG846 hourG5610 had not yetG3768 comeG2064.
