John 8:4-9

4they saidG3004 to Him, “TeacherG1320, thisG3778 womanG1135 has been caughtG2638 in the veryG849 actG849 of committingG3431 adulteryG3431.

5NowG1161 in the LawG3551, 1MosesG3475 commandedG1781 us to stoneG3034 suchG5108 womenG5108; whatG5101 thenG3767 do You sayG3004?”

6NowG1161 they were sayingG3004 thisG3778 to 2testG3985 Him, 3soG2443 thatG2443 they might haveG2192 grounds for accusingG2723 Him. But JesusG2424 stoopedG2955 downG2736 and with His fingerG1147 wroteG2608 on the groundG1093.

7WhenG5613 they persistedG1961 in askingG2065 Him, 4He straightenedG352 upG352 and saidG3004 to them, “5He who is withoutG361 sinG361 among you, let him be the 6firstG4413 to throwG906 a stoneG3037 at her.”

8And againG3825 He stoopedG2634 downG2634 and wroteG1125 on the groundG1093.

9NowG1161 when they heardG191 this, they began leavingG1831, oneG1520 by oneG1520, beginningG757 with the olderG4245 onesG4245, and He was leftG2641 aloneG3441, and the womanG1135 where she was, in the centerG3319 of the courtyard.
