Κατα Ιωαννην 8
1 ιησουσ δε επορευθη εισ το οροσ των ελαιων
Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2 ορθρου δε παλιν παρεγενετο εισ το ιερον και πασ ο λαοσ ηρχετο και καθισασ εδιδασκεν αυτουσ
And at dawn He went again into the temple, and all the people were coming to Him; so sitting down He started to teach them.
3 αγουσιν δε οι γραμματεισ και οι φαρισαιοι προσ αυτον γυναικα εν μοιχεια καταληφθεισαν και στησαντεσ αυτην εν μεσω
Then the scribes and the Pharisees bring to Him a woman caught in adultery; and placing her in the center
4 λεγουσιν αυτω πειραζοντεσ διδασκαλε αυτη η γυνη κατεληφθη επ αυτοφορω μοιχευομενη
they say to Him: “Teacher, we found this woman committing adultery, in the very act.
5 εν δε τω νομω μωσησ ημιν ενετειλατο τασ τοιαυτασ λιθοβολεισθαι συ ουν τι λεγεισ
Now in our law Moses commanded that such women are to be stoned; so what do you say?”
6 τουτο δε ελεγον πειραζοντεσ αυτον ινα εχωσιν κατηγορειν αυτου ο δε ιησουσ κατω κυψασ τω δακτυλω εγραφεν εισ την γην μη προσποιουμενοσ
They said this to test Him, so that they might have an accusation against Him. But stooping down Jesus began to write on the ground with His finger, taking no notice.
7 ωσ δε επεμενον ερωτωντεσ αυτον ανακυψασ ειπεν προσ αυτουσ ο αναμαρτητοσ υμων πρωτον επ αυτην τον λιθον βαλετω
But since they kept on asking Him, straightening up He said to them, “Let the one without sin among you throw the first stone at her.”
8 και παλιν κατω κυψασ εγραφεν εισ την γην
And stooping down again He continued writing on the ground.
9 οι δε ακουσαντεσ και υπο τησ συνειδησεωσ ελεγχομενοι εξηρχοντο εισ καθ εισ αρξαμενοι απο των πρεσβυτερων και κατελειφθη μονοσ ο ιησουσ και η γυνη εν μεσω ουσα
Now upon hearing this, and being convicted by their conscience, they began to go out one by one, starting with the older ones down to the least. So only Jesus was left, with the woman in the center.
10 ανακυψασ δε ο ιησουσ και μηδενα θεασαμενοσ πλην τησ γυναικοσ ειπεν αυτη που εισιν εκεινοι οι κατηγοροι σου ουδεισ σε κατεκρινεν
So straightening up, and not seeing anyone except the woman, Jesus said to her: “Where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?”
11 η δε ειπεν ουδεισ κυριε ειπεν δε ο ιησουσ ουδε εγω σε κρινω πορευου και μηκετι αμαρτανε
So she said, “No one, Lord.” Jesus said to her: “Neither do I condemn you. Go, and from now on don't sin any more!”
12 παλιν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ελαλησεν λεγων εγω ειμι το φωσ του κοσμου ο ακολουθων εμοι ου μη περιπατηση εν τη σκοτια αλλ εξει το φωσ τησ ζωησ
Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying: “I am the Light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk around in the darkness, but will have the light of the Life.”
13 ειπον ουν αυτω οι φαρισαιοι συ περι σεαυτου μαρτυρεισ η μαρτυρια σου ουκ εστιν αληθησ
So the Pharisees said to Him, “You are testifying about yourself; your testimony is not valid.”
14 απεκριθη ιησουσ και ειπεν αυτοισ καν εγω μαρτυρω περι εμαυτου αληθησ εστιν η μαρτυρια μου οτι οιδα ποθεν ηλθον και που υπαγω υμεισ δε ουκ οιδατε ποθεν ερχομαι και που υπαγω
Jesus answered and said to them: “Even though I testify about myself, my testimony is valid, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know where I come from or where I am going.
15 υμεισ κατα την σαρκα κρινετε εγω ου κρινω ουδενα
You are judging according to the flesh; I am not judging anyone.
16 και εαν κρινω δε εγω η κρισισ η εμη αληθησ εστιν οτι μονοσ ουκ ειμι αλλ εγω και ο πεμψασ με πατηρ
Yet even if I do judge, my judging is valid, in that I am not alone in judging, but I and the Father who sent me are together.
17 και εν τω νομω δε τω υμετερω γεγραπται οτι δυο ανθρωπων η μαρτυρια αληθησ εστιν
It is written precisely in your law that the testimony of two men is valid:
18 εγω ειμι ο μαρτυρων περι εμαυτου και μαρτυρει περι εμου ο πεμψασ με πατηρ
I am one testifying concerning myself and the Father who sent me testifies concerning me.”
19 ελεγον ουν αυτω που εστιν ο πατηρ σου απεκριθη ιησουσ ουτε εμε οιδατε ουτε τον πατερα μου ει εμε ηδειτε και τον πατερα μου ηδειτε αν
Then they said to Him, “Where is your father?” Jesus answered: “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me you would also know my Father.”
20 ταυτα τα ρηματα ελαλησεν ο ιησουσ εν τω γαζοφυλακιω διδασκων εν τω ιερω και ουδεισ επιασεν αυτον οτι ουπω εληλυθει η ωρα αυτου
Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, while teaching in the temple; yet no one arrested Him, because His time had not yet come.
21 ειπεν ουν παλιν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ εγω υπαγω και ζητησετε με και εν τη αμαρτια υμων αποθανεισθε οπου εγω υπαγω υμεισ ου δυνασθε ελθειν
Then Jesus said to them again: “I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I am going you cannot come.”
22 ελεγον ουν οι ιουδαιοι μητι αποκτενει εαυτον οτι λεγει οπου εγω υπαγω υμεισ ου δυνασθε ελθειν
So the Jews said, “He won't kill himself, will he, since he says, ‘Where I am going you cannot come’?”
23 και ειπεν αυτοισ υμεισ εκ των κατω εστε εγω εκ των ανω ειμι υμεισ εκ του κοσμου τουτου εστε εγω ουκ ειμι εκ του κοσμου τουτου
He said to them: “You are from below; I am from Above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 ειπον ουν υμιν οτι αποθανεισθε εν ταισ αμαρτιαισ υμων εαν γαρ μη πιστευσητε οτι εγω ειμι αποθανεισθε εν ταισ αμαρτιαισ υμων
That is why I told you that you will die in your sins, because if you do not believe that I am, you will die in your sins.”
25 ελεγον ουν αυτω συ τισ ει και ειπεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ την αρχην ο τι και λαλω υμιν
So they said to Him, “Who are you?” And Jesus said to them: “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
26 πολλα εχω περι υμων λαλειν και κρινειν αλλ ο πεμψασ με αληθησ εστιν καγω α ηκουσα παρ αυτου ταυτα λεγω εισ τον κοσμον
I have many things to say and to judge about you, but He who sent me is true, and what I myself have heard from Him—these things I say to the world.”
27 ουκ εγνωσαν οτι τον πατερα αυτοισ ελεγεν
They did not understand that He was speaking to them about the Father.
28 ειπεν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ οταν υψωσητε τον υιον του ανθρωπου τοτε γνωσεσθε οτι εγω ειμι και απ εμαυτου ποιω ουδεν αλλα καθωσ εδιδαξεν με ο πατηρ μου ταυτα λαλω
Then Jesus said to them: “When you lift up the Son of the Man, then you will know that I am and that I do nothing from myself; but just as my Father has taught me, these things I speak.
29 και ο πεμψασ με μετ εμου εστιν ουκ αφηκεν με μονον ο πατηρ οτι εγω τα αρεστα αυτω ποιω παντοτε
And the One who sent me is with me. The Father has not left me alone, because I always do the things that please Him.”
30 ταυτα αυτου λαλουντοσ πολλοι επιστευσαν εισ αυτον
While He was saying these things many believed into Him.
31 ελεγεν ουν ο ιησουσ προσ τουσ πεπιστευκοτασ αυτω ιουδαιουσ εαν υμεισ μεινητε εν τω λογω τω εμω αληθωσ μαθηται μου εστε
So Jesus said to those Jews who had believed Him: “If you abide in my word, you really are my disciples;
32 και γνωσεσθε την αληθειαν και η αληθεια ελευθερωσει υμασ
and you will know the Truth, and the Truth will make you free.”
33 απεκριθησαν αυτω σπερμα αβρααμ εσμεν και ουδενι δεδουλευκαμεν πωποτε πωσ συ λεγεισ οτι ελευθεροι γενησεσθε
They answered and said to Him: “We are descendants of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, ‘You will be made free’?”
34 απεκριθη αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην αμην λεγω υμιν οτι πασ ο ποιων την αμαρτιαν δουλοσ εστιν τησ αμαρτιασ
Jesus answered them: “I tell you most assuredly that everyone committing sin is a slave of sin.
Now the slave does not remain in the household forever; the son does remain forever. (aiōn g165)
36 εαν ουν ο υιοσ υμασ ελευθερωση οντωσ ελευθεροι εσεσθε
Therefore, if the Son should make you free, you really will be free.
37 οιδα οτι σπερμα αβρααμ εστε αλλα ζητειτε με αποκτειναι οτι ο λογοσ ο εμοσ ου χωρει εν υμιν
I know that you are descendants of Abraham, but you are wanting to kill me because my word finds no place in you.
38 εγω ο εωρακα παρα τω πατρι μου λαλω και υμεισ ουν ο εωρακατε παρα τω πατρι υμων ποιειτε
On my part, I speak what I have observed with my Father, while on your part you do what you have observed with your father.”
39 απεκριθησαν και ειπον αυτω ο πατηρ ημων αβρααμ εστιν λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ει τεκνα του αβρααμ ητε τα εργα του αβρααμ εποιειτε
They answered and said to Him, “Our father is Abraham!” Jesus says to them: “If you were children of Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham;
40 νυν δε ζητειτε με αποκτειναι ανθρωπον οσ την αληθειαν υμιν λελαληκα ην ηκουσα παρα του θεου τουτο αβρααμ ουκ εποιησεν
but now you are wanting to kill me, a man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. This sort of thing Abraham did not do!
41 υμεισ ποιειτε τα εργα του πατροσ υμων ειπον ουν αυτω ημεισ εκ πορνειασ ου γεγεννημεθα ενα πατερα εχομεν τον θεον
You do the works of your father.” Then they said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father—God.”
42 ειπεν ουν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ει ο θεοσ πατηρ υμων ην ηγαπατε αν εμε εγω γαρ εκ του θεου εξηλθον και ηκω ουδε γαρ απ εμαυτου εληλυθα αλλ εκεινοσ με απεστειλεν
So Jesus said to them: “If God were your Father, you would love me, because I came forth from God and I am here. Further, I have not come on my own, but He sent me.
43 δια τι την λαλιαν την εμην ου γινωσκετε οτι ου δυνασθε ακουειν τον λογον τον εμον
Why don't you understand what I say?—because you are not able to really hear my word.
44 υμεισ εκ του πατροσ του διαβολου εστε και τασ επιθυμιασ του πατροσ υμων θελετε ποιειν εκεινοσ ανθρωποκτονοσ ην απ αρχησ και εν τη αληθεια ουχ εστηκεν οτι ουκ εστιν αληθεια εν αυτω οταν λαλη το ψευδοσ εκ των ιδιων λαλει οτι ψευστησ εστιν και ο πατηρ αυτου
You are of your father the devil, and it is the desires of your father that you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks the lie he speaks from his own things, because he is a liar and the father of lying.
45 εγω δε οτι την αληθειαν λεγω ου πιστευετε μοι
But since I speak the truth you do not believe me.
46 τισ εξ υμων ελεγχει με περι αμαρτιασ ει δε αληθειαν λεγω δια τι υμεισ ου πιστευετε μοι
Which of you convicts me of sin? So if I speak the truth, why do you not believe me?
47 ο ων εκ του θεου τα ρηματα του θεου ακουει δια τουτο υμεισ ουκ ακουετε οτι εκ του θεου ουκ εστε
The one who is of God hears God's words; that is why you do not hear, because you are not of God.”
48 απεκριθησαν ουν οι ιουδαιοι και ειπον αυτω ου καλωσ λεγομεν ημεισ οτι σαμαρειτησ ει συ και δαιμονιον εχεισ
So the Jews answered and said to Him, “We say that you are a Samaritan and have a demon—are we wrong?”
49 απεκριθη ιησουσ εγω δαιμονιον ουκ εχω αλλα τιμω τον πατερα μου και υμεισ ατιμαζετε με
Jesus answered: “I do not have a demon; rather, I honor my Father, while you dishonor me.
50 εγω δε ου ζητω την δοξαν μου εστιν ο ζητων και κρινων
Yet I do not seek my glory; there is One who seeks and judges.
51 αμην αμην λεγω υμιν εαν τισ τον λογον τον εμον τηρηση θανατον ου μη θεωρηση εισ τον αιωνα (aiōn g165)
Most assuredly I say to you, if anyone should keep my word he will never ever see death.” (aiōn g165)
52 ειπον ουν αυτω οι ιουδαιοι νυν εγνωκαμεν οτι δαιμονιον εχεισ αβρααμ απεθανεν και οι προφηται και συ λεγεισ εαν τισ τον λογον μου τηρηση ου μη γευσηται θανατου εισ τον αιωνα (aiōn g165)
So the Jews said to Him: “Now we know that you have a demon! Abraham died and so did the prophets; yet you say, ‘If anyone should keep my word he will never ever taste death’! (aiōn g165)
53 μη συ μειζων ει του πατροσ ημων αβρααμ οστισ απεθανεν και οι προφηται απεθανον τινα σεαυτον συ ποιεισ
Surely you aren't greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets are dead. Who do you make yourself out to be?”
54 απεκριθη ιησουσ εαν εγω δοξαζω εμαυτον η δοξα μου ουδεν εστιν εστιν ο πατηρ μου ο δοξαζων με ον υμεισ λεγετε οτι θεοσ ημων εστιν
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.’
55 και ουκ εγνωκατε αυτον εγω δε οιδα αυτον και εαν ειπω οτι ουκ οιδα αυτον εσομαι ομοιοσ υμων ψευστησ αλλ οιδα αυτον και τον λογον αυτου τηρω
Yet you have not known Him, but I do know Him. And if I should say that I do not know Him I would be a liar just like you (pl); but I do know Him and I keep His word.
56 αβρααμ ο πατηρ υμων ηγαλλιασατο ινα ιδη την ημεραν την εμην και ειδεν και εχαρη
Your father Abraham was overjoyed to see my day; yes, he saw it and rejoiced.”
57 ειπον ουν οι ιουδαιοι προσ αυτον πεντηκοντα ετη ουπω εχεισ και αβρααμ εωρακασ
So the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and you have seen Abraham?!”
58 ειπεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην αμην λεγω υμιν πριν αβρααμ γενεσθαι εγω ειμι
Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I AM!”
59 ηραν ουν λιθουσ ινα βαλωσιν επ αυτον ιησουσ δε εκρυβη και εξηλθεν εκ του ιερου διελθων δια μεσου αυτων και παρηγεν ουτωσ
Then they picked up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus was concealed and went out of the temple, going through the middle of them; yes, that is how He got away!
