ST. JOHN.
<< Previous CHAPTER 8 Next >> |

John 8:1 | Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. |
John 8:2 | 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. |
John 8:3 | And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, |
John 8:4 | They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. |
John 8:5 | Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? |
John 8:6 | 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]. |
John 8:7 | 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. |
John 8:8 | And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. |
John 8:9 | 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. |
John 8:10 | When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? |
John 8:11 | She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. |
John 8:12 | Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. |
John 8:13 | The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true. |
John 8:14 | Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, [yet] my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. |
John 8:15 | Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. |
John 8:16 | And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. |
John 8:17 | It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. |
John 8:18 | I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. |
John 8:19 | Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also. |
John 8:20 | These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come. |
John 8:21 | Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come. |
John 8:22 | Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come. |
John 8:23 | And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. |
John 8:24 | I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins. |
John 8:25 | Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even [the same] that I said unto you from the beginning. |
John 8:26 | 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. |
John 8:27 | They understood not that he spake to them of the Father. |
John 8:28 | Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. |
John 8:29 | And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. |
John 8:30 | As he spake these words, many believed on him. |
John 8:31 | Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples indeed; |
John 8:32 | And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. |
John 8:33 | They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? |
John 8:34 | Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. |
John 8:35 | And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: [but] the Son abideth ever. |
John 8:36 | If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. |
John 8:37 | I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. |
John 8:38 | I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. |
John 8:39 | They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham. |
John 8:40 | But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. |
John 8:41 | Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God. |
John 8:42 | Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. |
John 8:43 | Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my word. |
John 8:44 | Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. |
John 8:45 | And because I tell [you] the truth, ye believe me not. |
John 8:46 | Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? |
John 8:47 | He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear [them] not, because ye are not of God. |
John 8:48 | Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? |
John 8:49 | Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me. |
John 8:50 | And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. |
John 8:51 | Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. |
John 8:52 | Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. |
John 8:53 | Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? |
John 8:54 | Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God: |
John 8:55 | Yet ye 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. |
John 8:56 | Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw [it], and was glad. |
John 8:57 | Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? |
John 8:58 | Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. |
John 8:59 | 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. |
