John 8:12-30

12AgainG3825 thereforeG3767 JesusG2424 spake unto themG846, sayingG3004, IG1473 amG1510 theG3588 lightG5457 ofG1722 theG3588 worldG2889: heG846 thatG3004 followeth meG3004 shallG5457 notG3756 walkG4043 inG1722 theG3588 darknessG4653, butG235 shallG5457 have theG3588 lightG5457 ofG1722 lifeG2222.

13TheG3588 PhariseesG5330 thereforeG3767 saidG3004 unto himG846, Thou bearest witnessG3140 ofG4012 thyself; thy witnessG3140 isG1510 notG3756 trueG227.

14JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, EvenG2532 ifG2579 IG1473 bearG3140 witnessG3140 ofG4012 myselfG1683, myG3754 witnessG3140 isG1510 trueG227; forG3754 IG1473 knowG1492 whence IG1473 cameG2064, andG2532 whither IG1473 goG5217; butG1161 ye knowG1492 notG3756 whence IG1473 comeG2064, orG2228 whither IG1473 goG5217.

15Ye judgeG2919 afterG2596 theG3588 fleshG4561; IG1473 judgeG2919 noG3756 manG3762.

16Yea andG2532 ifG1437 IG1473 judgeG2919, myG1699 judgmentG2920 isG1510 trueG228; forG3754 IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 aloneG3441, butG1161 IG1473 andG2532 theG3588 FatherG3962 thatG3754 sentG3992 meG1473.

17Yea andG2532 inG1722 yourG2532 lawG3551 itG1161 isG1510 writtenG1125, thatG3754 theG3588 witnessG3141 ofG3551 twoG1417 menG444 isG1510 trueG227.

18IG1473 amG1510 heG2532 thatG3140 beareth witnessG3140 ofG3962 myselfG1683, andG2532 theG3588 FatherG3962 thatG3140 sentG3992 meG1473 beareth witnessG3140 ofG3962 meG1473.

19TheyG846 saidG3004 thereforeG3767 unto himG846, WhereG4226 isG1510 thy FatherG3962? JesusG2424 answeredG611, Ye knowG1492 neitherG3777 meG3004, norG3777 myG3004 FatherG3962: ifG1487 ye knewG1492 meG3004, ye wouldG302 knowG1492 myG3004 FatherG3962 alsoG2532.

20TheseG3778 wordsG4487 spake heG2532 inG1722 theG3588 treasuryG1049, asG1722 heG2532 taughtG1321 inG1722 theG3588 templeG2413: andG2532 noG3762 manG3778 took himG846; becauseG3754 hisG846 hourG5610 was notG3762 yetG2532 comeG2064.

21HeG2532 saidG3004 thereforeG3767 againG3825 unto themG846, IG1473 goG5217 awayG5217, andG2532 ye shallG2532 seekG2212 meG3004, andG2532 shallG2532 dieG599 inG1722 yourG2532 sinG266: whither IG1473 goG5217, ye cannotG3756 comeG2064.

22TheG3588 JewsG2453 thereforeG3767 saidG3004, WillG3748 heG3754 killG615 himselfG1438, thatG3754 heG3754 saith, Whither IG1473 goG5217, ye cannotG3756 comeG2064?

23AndG2532 heG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, Ye areG1510 fromG1537 beneath; IG1473 amG1510 fromG1537 aboveG507: ye areG1510 ofG1537 thisG3778 worldG2889; IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 ofG1537 thisG3778 worldG2889.

24IG1473 saidG3004 thereforeG3767 unto youG5210, thatG3754 ye shall dieG599 inG1722 yourG1437 sinsG266: forG1063 exceptG3361 ye believeG4100 thatG3754 IG1473 amG1510 heG3754, ye shall dieG599 inG1722 yourG1437 sinsG266.

25TheyG846 saidG3004 thereforeG3767 unto himG846, WhoG3739 art thou? JesusG2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, EvenG2532 thatG3739 whichG3739 IG3739 haveG1510 alsoG2532 spokenG2980 unto youG5210 fromG2980 theG3588 beginningG746.

26IG1473 have manyG4183 thingsG3778 toG1519 speakG2980 andG2532 toG1519 judgeG2919 concerningG4012 youG5210: howbeit heG2532 thatG3739 sentG3992 meG1473 isG1510 trueG227; andG2532 theG3588 thingsG3778 whichG3739 IG1473 heardG191 fromG3844 himG846, theseG3778 speakG2980 IG1473 unto theG3588 worldG2889.

27TheyG846 perceivedG1097 notG3756 thatG3754 heG846 spake toG3004 themG846 ofG3962 theG3588 FatherG3962.

28JesusG2424 thereforeG3767 saidG3004, WhenG3752 ye haveG1510 liftedG5312 up theG3588 SonG5207 ofG5207 manG444, thenG2532 shallG444 ye knowG1097 thatG3754 IG1473 amG1510 heG2532, andG2532 thatG3754 IG1473 doG4160 nothingG3762 ofG5207 myselfG1683, butG235 asG2531 theG3588 FatherG3962 taughtG1321 meG3004, IG1473 speakG2980 theseG3778 thingsG3778.

29AndG2532 heG2532 thatG3754 sentG3992 meG1473 isG1510 withG3326 meG1473; heG2532 hath notG3756 leftG863 meG1473 aloneG3441; forG3754 IG1473 doG4160 alwaysG3842 theG3588 thingsG846 thatG3754 areG1510 pleasingG701 toG2532 himG846.

30AsG1519 heG846 spake theseG3778 thingsG3778, manyG4183 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846.
