John 8:21-29
21ThenG3767 He saidG3004 againG3825 to them, “I am goingG5217 awayG5217, and 1you will lookG2212 forG2212 Me, and 2will dieG599 in your sinG266; whereG3699 I am goingG5217, you cannotG1410G3756 comeG2064.”
22SoG3767 3the JewsG2453 were sayingG3004, “SurelyG3385 He will not killG615 HimselfG1438, will He, sinceG3754 He saysG3004, ‘4WhereG3699 I am goingG5217, you cannotG1410G3756 comeG2064’?”
23And He was sayingG3004 to them, “5You are from belowG2736, I amG1510 from aboveG507; 6you are of thisG3778 worldG2889, 7I amG1510 not of thisG3778 worldG2889.
24ThereforeG3767 I saidG3004 to you that you 8will dieG599 in your sinsG266; for unlessG1437G3361 you believeG4100 that 910I amG1510, 11you will dieG599 in your sinsG266.”
25ThenG3767 they were sayingG3004 to Him, “WhoG5101 are You?” JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “12WhatG3739G5101 have I evenG2532 been sayingG2980 to you from the beginningG746?
26I haveG2192 manyG4183 thingsG4183 to sayG2980 and to judgeG2919 regardingG4012 you, but 13He who sentG3992 Me is trueG227; and 14the things whichG3739 I heardG191 from Him, theseG3778 I sayG2980 to the worldG2889.”
27They did not realizeG1097 that He was speakingG3004 to them about the FatherG3962.
28SoG3767 JesusG2424 saidG3004, “WhenG3752 you 15liftG5312 upG5312 the SonG5207 of ManG444, thenG5119 you will knowG1097 that 1617I amG1510, and 18I doG4160 nothingG3762 19on My ownG1683, but I sayG2980 theseG3778 thingsG3778 as the FatherG3962 instructedG1321 Me.
29And He who sentG3992 Me is with Me; 20He 21has not leftG863 Me aloneG3441, for 22I alwaysG3842 doG4160 the thingsG701 thatG701 areG701 pleasingG701 to Him.”
