John 8:33-53

33They answeredG611 him, We areG1510 Abraham's seedG4690, and have never beenG1510 under bondage to any oneG3762; howG4459 sayest thou, Ye shall becomeG1096 freeG1658?

34JesusG2424 answeredG611 them, Verily, verily, I sayG3004 to you, Every oneG3588 that practises sinG266 isG1510 the bondman of sinG266.

35NowG1161 the bondman abidesG3306 not in the houseG3614 for ever: the sonG5207 abidesG3306 for ever.

36If thereforeG3767 the SonG5207 shall setG1659 you freeG1658, ye shall beG1510 really freeG1658.

37I know that ye areG1510 Abraham's seedG4690; but ye seekG2212 to killG615 me, because my wordG3056 has no entrance in you.

38I speakG2980 what I have seenG3708 with my FatherG3962, and ye then do what ye have seenG3708 with your fatherG3962.

39They answeredG611 and saidG3004 to him, AbrahamG11 isG1510 our fatherG3962. JesusG2424 saysG3004 to them, If ye wereG1510 Abraham's childrenG5043, ye would do the worksG2041 of AbrahamG11;

40but nowG1161 ye seekG2212 to killG615 me, a manG444 who has spokenG2980 the truthG225 to you, which I have heardG191 from 1GodG2316: this did not AbrahamG11.

41Ye do the worksG2041 of your fatherG3962. They saidG3004 [therefore] to him, We are not bornG1080 of fornication; we have oneG1520 fatherG3962, 2GodG2316.

42JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, If 3GodG2316 wereG1510 your fatherG3962 ye would have lovedG25 me, for I cameG2064 forthG1831 from 4GodG2316 and amG1510 comeG2064 [from him]; for neither amG1510 I comeG2064 of myself, but he has sentG649 me.

43WhyG5101 do ye not knowG1097 my speechG3056? Because ye cannot hearG191 my wordG3056.

44Ye areG1510 of the devilG1228, as [your] fatherG3962, and ye desireG2309 to do the lustsG1939 of your fatherG3962. He wasG1510 a murdererG443 from the beginning, and has not stoodG2476 in the truthG225, because there isG1510 no truthG225 in him. WhenG3752 he speaksG2980 falsehoodG5579, he speaksG2980 of what isG1510 his ownG2398; for he isG1510 a liarG5583 and its fatherG3962:

45and because I speakG3004 the truthG225, ye do not believeG4100 me.

46Which of you convinces me of sinG266? If I speakG3004 truthG225, whyG5101 do ye not believeG4100 me?

47He that isG1510 of 5GodG2316 hearsG191 the words of 6GodG2316: therefore ye hearG191 [them] not, because ye areG1510 not of 7GodG2316.

48The JewsG2453 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to him, SayG3004 we not wellG2573 that thou art a SamaritanG4541 and hast a demonG1140?

49JesusG2424 answeredG611, I have not a demonG1140; but I honour my FatherG3962, and ye dishonour me.

50But I do not seekG2212 my own gloryG1391: there isG1510 he that seeksG2212 and judgesG2919.

51Verily, verily, I sayG3004 unto you, If any oneG5100 shall keepG5083 my wordG3056, he shall never seeG2334 deathG2288.

52The JewsG2453 therefore saidG3004 to him, NowG3568 we knowG1097 that thou hast a demonG1140. AbrahamG11 has diedG599, and the prophetsG4396, and thou sayest, If any oneG5100 keepG5083 my wordG3056, he shall never tasteG1089 deathG2288.

53Art thou greaterG3173 than our fatherG3962 AbrahamG11, who has diedG599? and the prophetsG4396 have diedG599: whom makest thou thyself?
