John 8:46-59

46WhichG5101 oneG5101 of you convictsG1651 Me of sinG266? IfG1487 1I speakG3004 truthG225, whyG1223 G5101 do you not believeG4100 Me? 47 2The one who is of GodG2316 hearsG191 the wordsG4487 of GodG2316; for thisG3778 reasonG1223 you do not hearG191 them, becauseG3754 you are not of GodG2316.”

48 3The JewsG2453 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to Him, “Do we not rightlyG2573 sayG3004 that You are a 4SamaritanG4541, and You 5haveG2192 a demonG1140?” 49JesusG2424 answeredG611, “I do not 6haveG2192 a demonG1140; onG235 theG235 contraryG235, I honorG5091 My FatherG3962, and you dishonorG818 Me. 50But 7I am not seekingG2212 My gloryG1391; there is One who seeksG2212 it, and judgesG2919. 51TrulyG281, trulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, ifG1437 anyoneG5100 8followsG5083 My wordG3056, he will neverG3756 G3361 9seeG2334 deathG2288.” 52 10The JewsG2453 saidG3004 to Him, “NowG3568 we knowG1097 that You 11haveG2192 a demonG1140. AbrahamG11 diedG599, and the prophetsG4396 as well; and yet You sayG3004, ‘IfG1437 anyoneG5100 12followsG5083 My wordG3056, he will neverG3756 G3361 13tasteG1089 of deathG2288.’ 53You 14are not greaterG3173 than our fatherG3962 AbrahamG11, whoG3748 diedG599, are You? The prophetsG4396 diedG599 tooG2532. WhomG5101 do You makeG4160 YourselfG4572 out to be?” 54JesusG2424 answeredG611, “15IfG1437 I glorifyG1392 MyselfG1683, My gloryG1391 is nothingG3762; 16it is My FatherG3962 who glorifiesG1392 Me, of whomG3739 you sayG3004, ‘He is our GodG2316’; 55and 17you have not come to knowG1097 Him, 18but I knowG3609 Him. And ifG2579 I sayG3004 that I do not knowG3609 Him, I will be 19a liarG5583 likeG3664 you; 20but I do knowG3609 Him, and I 21followG5083 His wordG3056. 56 22Your fatherG3962 AbrahamG11 was 23overjoyedG21 that he would seeG3708 My dayG2250, and he sawG3708 it and rejoicedG5463.” 57 24SoG3767 the JewsG2453 saidG3004 to Him, “You are not yetG3768 fiftyG4004 yearsG2094 old, and You have seenG3708 AbrahamG11?” 58JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “TrulyG281, trulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, beforeG4250 AbrahamG11 25was bornG1096, 26 27I amG1510.” 59ThereforeG3767 they 28pickedG142 upG142 stonesG3037 to throwG906 at Him, but JesusG2424 29hidG2928 Himself and leftG1831 the templeG2413 grounds.
