John 8

1JesusG2424 wentG4198 untoG1519 the mountG3588G3735 of OlivesG3588G1636. 2AndG1161 early in the morningG3722 he cameG3854 againG3825 intoG1519 the templeG3588G2411, andG2532 allG3956 the peopleG3588G2992 cameG2064 untoG4314 himG846; andG2532 he sat downG2523, and taughtG1321 themG846. 3AndG1161 the scribesG3588G1122 andG2532 PhariseesG3588G5330 broughtG71 untoG4314 himG846 a womanG1135 takenG2638 inG1722 adulteryG3430; andG2532 when they had setG2476 herG846 inG1722 the midstG3319, 4They sayG3004 unto himG846, MasterG1320, thisG3778 womanG3588G1135 was takenG2638 in adulteryG3431, in the very actG1888. 5NowG1161 MosesG3475 inG1722 the lawG3588G3551 commandedG1781 usG1473, thatG3588 suchG5108 should be stonedG3036: butG3767 whatG5101 sayestG3004 thouG4771? 6ThisG3778 they saidG3004, temptingG3985 himG846, thatG2443 they might haveG2192 to accuseG2723 himG846. ButG1161 JesusG3588G2424 stoopedG2955 downG2736, and withG3588G1147 his fingerG3588G1147 wroteG1125 onG1519 the groundG3588G1093, as though he heard them not. 7SoG1161 whenG5613 they continuedG1961 askingG2065 himG846, he lifted up himselfG352, and saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, He that is without sinG361 among youG4771, let himG906 firstG4413 castG906 a stoneG3588G3037 atG1909 herG846. 8AndG2532 againG3825 he stoopedG2955 downG2736, and wroteG1125 onG1519 the groundG3588G1093. 9AndG1161 they which heardG3588G191 it, being convictedG1651 byG5259 their own conscienceG3588G4893, went outG1831 oneG1520 byG2596 oneG1520, beginningG756 atG575 the eldestG3588G4245, even untoG2193 the lastG3588G2078: andG2532 JesusG3588G2424 was leftG2641 aloneG3441, andG2532 the womanG3588G1135 standingG2476 inG1722 the midstG3319. 10WhenG1161 JesusG3588G2424 had lifted up himselfG352, andG2532 sawG2300 noneG3367 butG4133 the womanG3588G1135, he saidG3004 unto herG846, WomanG3588G1135, whereG4226 areG1510 thoseG1565 thineG4771 accusersG3588G2725? hathG2632 no manG3762 condemnedG2632 theeG4771? 11SheG3588 saidG3004, No manG3762, LordG2962. AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto herG846, NeitherG3761 doG2632 IG1473 condemnG2632 theeG4771: goG4198, andG2532 sinG264 no moreG3371.

12ThenG3767 spakeG2980 JesusG3588G2424 againG3825 unto themG846, sayingG3004, IG1473 amG1510 the lightG3588G5457 of the worldG3588G2889: he that followethG190 meG1473 shallG4043 notG3756 walkG4043 inG1722 darknessG3588G4653, butG235 shall haveG2192 the lightG3588G5457 of lifeG3588G2222. 13The PhariseesG3588G5330 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 unto himG846, ThouG4771 bearest recordG3140 ofG4012 thyselfG4572; thyG4771 recordG3588G3141 isG1510 notG3756 trueG227. 14JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, ThoughG2579 IG1473 bear recordG3140 ofG4012 myselfG1683, yet myG1473 recordG3588G3141 isG1510 trueG227: forG3754 I knowG1492 whenceG4159 I cameG2064, andG2532 whitherG4226 I goG5217; butG1161 yeG4771 cannotG3756 tellG1492 whenceG4159 I comeG2064, andG2532 whitherG4226 I goG5217. 15YeG4771 judgeG2919 afterG2596 the fleshG3588G4561; IG1473 judgeG2919 noG3756 manG3762. 16AndG2532 yetG1161 ifG1437 IG1473 judgeG2919, myG1699 judgmentG3588G2920 isG1510 trueG227: forG3754 I amG1510 notG3756 aloneG3441, butG235 IG1473 andG2532 the FatherG3962 that sentG3992 meG1473. 17It isG1125 alsoG1161 writtenG1125 inG1722 yourG5212 lawG3588G3551, thatG3754 the testimonyG3588G3141 of twoG1417 menG444 isG1510 trueG227. 18IG1473 amG1510 one that bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 myselfG1683, andG2532 the FatherG3962 that sentG3992 meG1473 beareth witnessG3140 ofG4012 meG1473. 19ThenG3767 said theyG3004 unto himG846, WhereG4226 isG1510 thyG4771 FatherG3588G3962? JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611, YeG1492 neitherG3777 knowG1492 meG1473, norG3777 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962: ifG1487 ye had knownG1492 meG1473, ye should have knownG1492 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962 alsoG2532. 20TheseG3778 wordsG3588G4487 spakeG2980 JesusG3588G2424 inG1722 the treasuryG3588G1049, as he taughtG1321 inG1722 the templeG3588G2411: andG2532 no manG3762 laid handsG4084 on himG846; forG3754 hisG846 hourG3588G5610 wasG2064 not yetG3768 comeG2064. 21ThenG3767 saidG3004 JesusG3588G2424 againG3825 unto themG846, IG1473 go my wayG5217, andG2532 ye shall seekG2212 meG1473, andG2532 shall dieG599 inG1722 yourG4771 sinsG3588G266: whitherG3699 IG1473 goG5217, yeG4771 cannotG3756 comeG2064. 22ThenG3767 saidG3004 the JewsG2453, WillG3385 he killG615 himselfG1438? becauseG3754 he saithG3004, WhitherG3699 IG1473 goG5217, yeG4771 cannotG3756 comeG2064. 23AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto themG846, YeG4771 areG1510 fromG1537 beneathG2736; IG1473 amG1510 fromG1537 aboveG507: yeG4771 areG1510 ofG1537 thisG3778 worldG3588G2889; IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 thisG3778 worldG3588G2889. 24I saidG3004 thereforeG3767 unto youG4771, thatG3754 ye shall dieG599 inG1722 yourG4771 sinsG3588G266: forG1063 ifG1437 ye believeG4100 notG3361 thatG3754 IG1473 amG1510 he, ye shall dieG599 inG1722 yourG4771 sinsG3588G266. 25ThenG3767 said theyG3004 unto himG846, WhoG5101 art thouG4771? AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, EvenG2532 the same thatG3739 I saidG2980 unto youG4771 from the beginningG3588G746. 26I haveG2192 many thingsG4183 to sayG2980 andG2532 to judgeG2919 ofG4012 youG4771: butG235 he that sentG3992 meG1473 isG1510 trueG227; and IG2504 speakG3004 toG1519 the worldG3588G2889 those thingsG3778 whichG3739 I have heardG191 ofG3844 himG846. 27They understoodG1097 notG3756 thatG3754 he spakeG3004 to themG846 of the FatherG3588G3962. 28ThenG3767 saidG3004 JesusG3588G2424 unto themG846, WhenG3752 ye have lifted upG5312 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444, thenG5119 shall ye knowG1097 thatG3754 IG1473 amG1510 he, andG2532 that I doG4160 nothingG3762 ofG575 myselfG1683; butG235 asG2531 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962 hath taughtG1321 meG1473, I speakG2980 these thingsG3778. 29AndG2532 he that sentG3992 meG1473 isG1510 withG3326 meG1473: the FatherG3588G3962 hathG863 notG3756 leftG863 meG1473 aloneG3441; forG3754 IG1473 doG4160 alwaysG3842 those things that pleaseG701 himG846. 30AsG2980 heG846 spakeG2980 these wordsG3778, manyG4183 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846. 31ThenG3767 saidG3004 JesusG3588G2424 toG4314 thoseG4100 JewsG2453 which believedG4100 on himG846, IfG1437 yeG4771 continueG3306 inG1722 myG1699 wordG3588G3056, then are yeG1510 myG1473 disciplesG3101 indeedG230; 32AndG2532 ye shall knowG1097 the truthG3588G225, andG2532 the truthG3588G225 shall makeG1659 youG4771 freeG1659.

33They answeredG611 himG846, We beG1510 Abraham’sG11 seedG4690, andG2532 wereG1398 neverG4455 in bondageG1398 to any manG3762: howG4459 sayestG3004 thouG4771, Ye shall be madeG1096 freeG1658? 34JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 themG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, WhosoeverG3956 committethG4160 sinG3588G266 isG1510 the servantG1401 of sinG3588G266. 35AndG1161 the servantG1401 abidethG3306 notG3756 inG1722 the houseG3588G3614 forG1519 everG3588G165: but the SonG3588G5207 abidethG3306 everG3588G165. 36IfG1437 the SonG3588G5207 thereforeG3767 shall makeG1659 youG4771 freeG1659, ye shall beG1510 freeG1658 indeedG3689. 37I knowG1492 thatG3754 ye areG1510 Abraham’sG11 seedG4690; butG235 ye seekG2212 to killG615 meG1473, becauseG3754 myG1699 wordG3588G3056 hathG5562 noG3756 placeG5562 inG1722 youG4771. 38IG1473 speakG2980 thatG3708 whichG3739 I have seenG3708 withG3844 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962: andG2532 yeG4771 doG4160 thatG3767 whichG3739 ye have seenG3708 withG3844 yourG4771 fatherG3588G3962. 39They answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, AbrahamG11 isG1510 ourG1473 fatherG3588G3962. JesusG3588G2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, IfG1487 ye wereG1510 Abraham’sG11 childrenG5043, ye would doG4160 the worksG3588G2041 of AbrahamG11. 40ButG1161 nowG3568 ye seekG2212 to killG615 meG1473, a manG444 thatG3739 hath toldG2980 youG4771 the truthG3588G225, whichG3739 I have heardG191 ofG3844 GodG3588G2316: thisG3778 didG4160 notG3756 AbrahamG11. 41YeG4771 doG4160 the deedsG3588G2041 of yourG4771 fatherG3588G3962. ThenG3767 said theyG3004 to himG846, WeG1473 beG1080 notG3756 bornG1080 ofG1537 fornicationG4202; we haveG2192 oneG1520 FatherG3962, even GodG3588G2316. 42JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, IfG1487 GodG3588G2316 wereG1510 yourG4771 FatherG3962, ye would loveG25 meG1473: forG1063 IG1473 proceeded forthG1831 andG2532 cameG2240 fromG1537 GodG3588G2316; neitherG3761 came IG2064 ofG575 myselfG1683, butG235 heG1565 sentG649 meG1473. 43WhyG1223 do yeG1097 notG3756 understandG1097 myG3588G1699 speechG3588G2981? even becauseG3754 yeG1410G191 cannotG3756 hearG1410G191 myG3588G1699 wordG3588G3056. 44YeG4771 areG1510 ofG1537 your fatherG3962 the devilG3588G1228, andG2532 the lustsG3588G1939 of yourG4771 fatherG3588G3962 ye willG2309 doG4160. HeG1565 wasG1510 a murdererG443 fromG575 the beginningG746, andG2532 abodeG2476 notG3756 inG1722 the truthG3588G225, becauseG3754 there isG1510 noG3756 truthG225 inG1722 himG846. WhenG3752 he speakethG2980 a lieG3588G5579, he speakethG2980 ofG1537 his ownG3588G2398: forG3754 he isG1510 a liarG5583, andG2532 the fatherG3588G3962 of itG846. 45AndG1161 becauseG3754 IG1473 tellG3004 you the truthG3588G225, ye believeG4100 meG1473 notG3756. 46WhichG5101 ofG1537 youG4771 convincethG1651 meG1473 ofG4012 sinG266? AndG1161 ifG1487 I sayG3004 the truthG225, whyG1223 doG4100 yeG4771 notG3756 believeG4100 meG1473? 47He that isG1510 ofG1537 GodG3588G2316 hearethG191 God’sG3588G2316 wordsG3588G4487: yeG4771 thereforeG1223 hearG191 them notG3756, becauseG3754 ye areG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 GodG3588G2316. 48ThenG3767 answeredG611 the JewsG2453, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, SayG3004 weG1473 notG3756 wellG2573 thatG3754 thouG4771 artG1510 a SamaritanG4541, andG2532 hastG2192 a devilG1140? 49JesusG2424 answeredG611, IG1473 haveG2192 notG3756 a devilG1140; butG235 I honourG5091 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962, andG2532 yeG4771 do dishonourG818 meG1473. 50AndG1161 IG1473 seekG2212 notG3756 mine ownG1473 gloryG3588G1391: there isG1510 one that seekethG2212 andG2532 judgethG2919. 51VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, IfG1437 a manG5100 keepG5083 myG3588G1699 sayingG3588G3056, he shallG2334 neverG3756G3361 seeG2334 deathG2288. 52ThenG3767 saidG3004 the JewsG3588G2453 unto himG846, NowG3568 we knowG1097 thatG3754 thou hastG2192 a devilG1140. AbrahamG11 is deadG599, andG2532 the prophetsG3588G4396; andG2532 thouG4771 sayestG3004, IfG1437 a manG5100 keepG5083 myG1473 sayingG3588G3056, he shallG1089 neverG3756G3361 tasteG1089 of deathG2288. 53ArtG1510 thouG4771 greater thanG3173 ourG1473 fatherG3588G3962 AbrahamG11, whichG3748 is deadG599? andG2532 the prophetsG3588G4396 are deadG599: whomG5101 makestG4160 thouG4771 thyselfG4572? 54JesusG2424 answeredG611, IfG1437 IG1473 honourG1392 myselfG1683, myG1473 honourG3588G1391 isG1510 nothingG3762: it isG1510 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962 that honourethG1392 meG1473; of whomG3739 yeG4771 sayG3004, thatG3754 he isG1510 yourG4771 GodG2316: 55YetG2532 ye haveG1097 notG3756 knownG1097 himG846; butG1161 IG1473 knowG1492 himG846: andG2532 ifG1437 I should sayG3004, I knowG1492 himG846 notG3756, I shall beG1510 a liarG5583 likeG3664 unto youG4771: butG235 I knowG1492 himG846, andG2532 keepG5083 hisG846 sayingG3588G3056. 56YourG4771 fatherG3588G3962 AbrahamG11 rejoicedG21 toG2443 seeG3708 myG1699 dayG3588G2250: andG2532 he sawG3708 it, andG2532 was gladG5463. 57ThenG3767 saidG3004 the JewsG2453 untoG4314 himG846, Thou artG2192 not yetG3768 fiftyG4004 yearsG2094 oldG2192, andG2532 hast thou seenG3708 AbrahamG11? 58JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG4771, BeforeG4250 AbrahamG11 wasG1096, IG1473 amG1510. 59ThenG3767 took they upG142 stonesG3037 toG2443 castG906 atG1909 himG846: butG1161 JesusG2424 hid himselfG2928, andG2532 went outG1831 ofG1537 the templeG3588G2411, goingG1330 throughG1223 the midstG3319 of themG846, andG2532 soG3779 passed byG3855.
