John 8:43-45

43Why do you not understand 12what I am saying? It is because you cannot 3hear My word.

444You are of 5your father the devil, and 6you want to do the desires of your father. 7He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because 8there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks 9a lie, he 10speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of 11lies.

45But because 12I speak the truth, you do not believe Me.
