John 8:33-53
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?
