John 8
1 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
But Jesus went to the mount of Olives.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
And at early morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him. And having sat down, he taught them.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
And the scholars and the Pharisees bring to him a woman taken in adultery. And having stood her in the midst,
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
tempting, they say to him, Teacher, we found this woman committing adultery, in the act.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what say you?
Now in the law, Moses commanded us such women are to be stoned. What therefore do thou say about her?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
But they said this, trying him, so that they might have an accusation against him. But Jesus having stooped down, wrote on the ground with his finger, not pretending.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
And when they continued asking him, after standing erect, he said to them, Let the innocent man of you first cast the stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
And again having stooped down, he wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
And they, having heard and being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, having begun from the elder until the last. And Jesus was left behind alone, and the woman being in the midst.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those your accusers? has no man condemned you?
And Jesus, after standing erect, and having seen no man but the woman, he said to her, Woman, where are those accusers of thee? Did no man condemn thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn you: go, and sin no more.
And she said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee. Go, and henceforth sin no more.
12 Then spoke Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world. He who follows me would, no, not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.
13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, You bear record of yourself; your record is not true.
The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou testify about thyself. Thy testimony is not valid.
14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and where I go; but all of you cannot tell whence I come, and where I go.
Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I might testify about myself, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came from and where I go, but ye do not know where I come from and where I go.
15 All of you judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
Ye judge according to the flesh. I judge no man.
16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
But even if I judge, my judgment is valid, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.
17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
And also it is written in your law that the testimony of two men is valid.
18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me bears witness of me.
I am he who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.
19 Then said they unto him, Where is your Father? Jesus answered, All of you neither know me, nor my Father: if all of you had known me, all of you should have known my Father also.
They said therefore to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me, nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also.
20 These words (rhema) spoke Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
Jesus spoke these sayings in the treasury as he taught in the temple, and no man seized him, because his hour had not yet come.
21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and all of you shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: where I go, all of you cannot come.
Jesus therefore again said to them, I go, and ye will seek me, and ye will die in your sin. Where I go, ye cannot come.
22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he says, Where I go, all of you cannot come.
The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, because he says, Where I go, ye cannot come?
23 And he said unto them, All of you are from beneath; I am from above: all of you are of this world; I am not of this world.
And he said to them, Ye are from below, I am from above. Ye are of this world, I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore unto you, that all of you shall die in your sins: for if all of you believe not that I am he, all of you shall die in your sins.
I said therefore to you that ye will die in your sins. For unless ye believe that I am he, ye will die in your sins.
25 Then said they unto him, Who are you? And Jesus says unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
They said therefore to him, Who are thou? And Jesus said to them, The beginning, something that I am even telling you.
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
I have many things to say and to judge about you. But he who sent me is true, and I speak to the world these things that I heard from him.
27 They understood not that he spoke to them of the Father.
They did not understand that he spoke the Father to them.
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When all of you have lifted up the Son of man, then shall all of you know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father has taught me, I speak these things.
Jesus therefore said to them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then ye will know that I am he, and I do nothing from myself, but I speak these things as my Father taught me.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father has not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
And he who sent me is with me. The Father has not left me alone, because I always do things pleasing to him.
30 As he spoke these words, many believed on him.
As he spoke these things of him, many believed in him.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If all of you continue in my word, (logos) then are all of you my disciples indeed;
Jesus therefore said to those Jews who believed him, If ye remain in my word, ye are truly my disciples,
32 And all of you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
and ye will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how say you, All of you shall be made free?
They answered to him, We are Abraham's seed, and have been in bondage to no man, ever. How can thou say, Ye will become free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever commits sin is the servant of sin.
Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, that every man who does the sin is a bondman of the sin.
And the bondman does not remain in the house into the age. The Son remains into the age. (aiōn g165)
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, all of you shall be free indeed.
If therefore the Son should make you free, ye will truly be free.
37 I know that all of you are Abraham's seed; but all of you seek to kill me, because my word (logos) has no place in you.
I know that ye are Abraham's seed, yet ye seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and all of you do that which all of you have seen with your father.
I speak what I have seen from my Father, and ye therefore do what ye have seen from your father.
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says unto them, If all of you were Abraham's children, all of you would do the works of Abraham.
They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now all of you seek to kill me, a man that has told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
But now ye seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.
41 All of you do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
Ye do the works of your father. They said therefore to him, We were not begotten from fornication. We have one Father, God.
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, all of you would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
Therefore Jesus said to them, If God were your Father, ye would love me, for I came forth and have come from God. For, neither have I come for myself, but he sent me.
43 Why do all of you not understand my speech? even because all of you cannot hear my word. (logos)
Why do ye not understand my speech? Because ye cannot hear my word.
44 All of you are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father all of you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Ye are from the father, the devil, and ye want to do the desires of your father. He was a man-killer from the beginning, and he has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own, because he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, all of you believe me not.
And I, because I speak the truth, ye do not believe me.
46 Which of you convinces me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do all of you not believe me?
Which of you convicts me about sin? And if I speak truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 He that is of God hears God's words: (rhema) all of you therefore hear them not, because all of you are not of God.
He who is of God hears the sayings of God. Because of this ye do not hear, because ye are not of God.
48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that you are a Samaritan, and have a devil?
Therefore the Jews answered and said to him, Do we not say well that thou are a Samaritan, and have a demon?
49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and all of you do dishonour me.
Jesus answered, I have no demon, but I honor my Father, and ye dishonor me.
50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeks and judges.
But I seek not my own glory. He is who seeks and judges.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, (logos) he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
Truly, truly, I say to you, if any man keeps my word, he will, no, not see death, into the age. (aiōn g165)
52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that you have a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, If a man keep my saying, (logos) he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
The Jews therefore said to him, Now we know that thou have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets, and thou say, If any man keeps my word, he will, no, not taste of death, into the age. (aiōn g165)
53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom make you yourself?
Are thou greater than our father Abraham who died? And the prophets died. Who do thou make thyself?
54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honors me; of whom all of you say, that he is your God:
Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. My Father is he who glorifies me, of whom ye say, He is our God.
55 Yet all of you have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying. (logos)
And ye do not know him, but I know him. And if I should say that I do not know him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know him and keep his word.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
Your father Abraham rejoiced that he could see my day, and he saw it, and was glad.
57 Then said the Jews unto him, You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?
The Jews therefore said to him, Thou have not yet fifty years, and thou have seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I am.
59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
Therefore they took up stones so that they might throw at him, but Jesus was hid, and went out of the temple, having passed through the midst of them, and thus passed on.
