John 8:4-9

4they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in adultery, in the very act.

5Now in the Law 1Moses commanded us to stone such women; what then do You say?”

6They were saying this, 2testing Him, 3so that they might have grounds for accusing Him. But Jesus stooped down and with His finger wrote on the ground.

7But when they persisted in asking Him, 4He straightened up, and said to them, “5He who is without sin among you, let him be the 6first to throw a stone at her.”

8Again He stooped down and wrote on the ground.

9When 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.
