John 8
1 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
And Jesus went unto mount Olivet.
2 Now very early in the morning, he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them.
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and sitting down he taught them.
3 Then the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
And the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst,
4 they said to him, "Teacher, we found this woman in adultery, in the very act.
And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery.
5 Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such. So what do you say?"
Now Moses in the law commanded us to stone such a one. But what sayest thou?
6 Now they said this to test him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger.
And this they said tempting him, that they might accuse him. But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
7 But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her."
When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 Again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.
9 But when they heard it, they went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last, and he was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle.
But they hearing this, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 Then Jesus, standing up, said to her, "Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?"
Then Jesus lifting up himself, said to her: Woman, where are they that accused thee? Hath no man condemned thee?
11 And she said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go, and sin no more."
Who said: No man, Lord. And Jesus said: Neither will I condemn thee. Go, and now sin no more.
12 Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life."
Again therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying: I am the light of the world: he that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 The Pharisees therefore said to him, "You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid."
The Pharisees therefore said to him: Thou givest testimony of thyself: thy testimony is not true.
14 Jesus answered them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you do not know where I came from, or where I am going.
Jesus answered, and said to them: Although I give testimony of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but you know not whence I come, or whither I go.
15 You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
You judge according to the flesh: I judge not any man.
16 Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.
And if I do judge, my judgment is true: because I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 It's also written in your Law that the testimony of two people is valid.
And in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me."
I am one that give testimony of myself: and the Father that sent me giveth testimony of me.
19 They said therefore to him, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me, nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also."
They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father: if you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also.
20 Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
21 Jesus said therefore again to them, "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you cannot come."
Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go, and you shall seek me, and you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.
22 The Jewish leaders therefore said, "Will he kill himself, that he says, 'Where I am going, you cannot come?'"
The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?
23 He said to them, "You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.
And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins."
Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.
25 They said therefore to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, "Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you.
26 I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world."
Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.
27 They did not understand that he spoke to them about the Father.
And they understood not, that he called God his Father.
28 Jesus therefore said to them, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I say these things.
Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:
29 He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn't left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him."
And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.
30 As he spoke these things, many believed in him.
When he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31 Jesus therefore said to those Judeans who had believed him, "If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.
Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
32 You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can you say, 'You will be made free?'"
They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?
34 Jesus answered them, "Truly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the slave of sin.
Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
37 I know that you are Abraham's descendants, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.
I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have heard from your father."
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.
39 They answered him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.
They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.
40 But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.
But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.
41 You do the works of your father." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God."
You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.
42 Therefore Jesus said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I have not come of myself, but he sent me.
Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:
43 Why do you not understand my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.
Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.
44 You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its father.
You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
45 But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
But if I say the truth, you believe me not.
46 Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?
Which of you shall convince me of sin? If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me?
47 He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you do not hear, because you are not of God."
He that is of God, heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.
48 Then the Judeans answered him, "Do not we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?"
The Jews therefore answered, and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.
Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father, and you have dishonoured me.
50 But I do not seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.
But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Amen, amen I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not see death for ever. (aiōn g165)
52 Then the Judeans said to him, "Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and you say, 'If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste of death.' (aiōn g165)
The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever. (aiōn g165)
53 Are you greater than our father, Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?"
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?
54 Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say 'He is our God.'
Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.
55 You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, 'I do not know him,' I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.
And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do keep his word.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad."
Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad.
57 The Judeans therefore said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?"
The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM."
Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.
59 Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Jesus was concealed, and went out of the temple.
They took up stones therefore to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
