John 8:4-9

4and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of adultery.

5In the law Moses commanded us to stone to death such women. What then do you say?”

6(Now they were asking this in an attempt to trap him, so that they could bring charges against him.) Jesus bent down and wrote on the ground with his finger.

7When they persisted in asking him, he stood up straight and replied, “Whoever among you is guiltless may be the first to throw a stone at her.”

8Then he bent over again and wrote on the ground.

9Now when they heard this, they began to drift away one at a time, starting with the older ones, until Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.
