nsb@John:8:12 @ Again Jesus spoke to them, saying: »I am the light of the world. He that follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.«
nsb@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees therefore replied to him: »You testify about yourself. Your evidence is not true!«
nsb@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered them: »Even if I bear witness about myself, my testimony is true! I know where I came from and I know where I am going. You do not know where I came from or where I am going.
nsb@John:8:15 @ »You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
nsb@John:8:16 @ »Yes and if I judge my judgment is true. I am not alone for I am with the Father who sent me.
nsb@John:8:17 @ »It is written in your law that the witness of two men is true.
nsb@John:8:18 @ »I testify about myself and the Father who sent me testifies about me.«
nsb@John:8:19 @ They said: »Where is your Father?« Jesus answered: »You do not know me, nor do you know my Father! If you knew me you would also know my Father.«
nsb@John:8:20 @ He spoke these words at the treasury as he taught in the temple. No one tried to arrest him because his hour had not yet arrived.
nsb@John:8:21 @ He said: »I go away. You will seek me and will die in your sin. You cannot come where I go.«
nsb@John:8:22 @ The Jews asked: »Would he kill himself? For he said you could not come where I go.«
nsb@John:8:23 @ He responded to them: »You are from below. I am from above. You are from this world. I am not from this world.
nsb@John:8:24 @ »I said to you that you would die in your sins. Unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins!«
nsb@John:8:25 @ »Who are you,« they asked. Jesus replied: »What have I been telling you from the beginning?
nsb@John:8:26 @ »I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. He that sent me is true. I tell the world the things he told me.«
nsb@John:8:27 @ They were not aware that he spoke to them about the Father.
nsb@John:8:28 @ Jesus said: »When you have lifted up the Son of man you will know that I am that person. I do nothing by myself! I speak what the Father taught me!
nsb@John:8:29 @ »He sent me and is with me. He has not left me alone. I always do the things that are pleasing to him!«
nsb@John:8:30 @ Many believed when he said these things.
nsb@John:8:31 @ Jesus told the Jews who believed him: »If you dwell in my word you truly are my disciples.
nsb@John:8:32 @ »You will know the truth and the truth will make you free!«
nsb@John:8:33 @ They answered him: »We are Abrahams seed, and have never been in bondage to any man. How can you say we will be made free?«
nsb@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered: »Truly I tell you every one who commits sin is a slave of sin.
nsb@John:8:35 @ »The slave does not abide in the house forever. The son abides forever.
nsb@John:8:36 @ »If therefore the Son will make you free, you will be free indeed.
nsb@John:8:37 @ »I know that you are Abrahams seed. Yet you seek to kill me. That is because my word has no place among you.
nsb@John:8:38 @ »I speak the things that I have seen and heard when I was with my Father. You also do the things that you heard from your father.«
nsb@John:8:39 @ They answered: »Our father is Abraham.« Jesus replied: »If you were Abrahams children, you would do the works of Abraham.
nsb@John:8:40 @ »You seek to kill me. I told you the truth! I heard it from God. Abraham did not do this.
nsb@John:8:41 @ »You do the works of your father.« They said: »We were not born of fornication. We have one Father, God!«
nsb@John:8:42 @ Jesus said: »If God were your Father you would love me. I came from God! I have not come from myself. He sent me!
nsb@John:8:43 @ »Why do you not understand what I say? Can you not hear me?
nsb@John:8:44 @ »You are from your father the Devil! You want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning. He does not stand for the truth. There is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks his own lies. He is a liar and the father of the lie!
nsb@John:8:45 @ »I tell you the truth and you do not believe me.
nsb@John:8:46 @ »Which of you convicted me of sin? If I speak truth, why do you not believe me?
nsb@John:8:47 @ »He that is of God hears the words of God. That is why you do not listen. You are not from God!«
nsb@John:8:48 @ The Jews answered: »Do we not speak correctly that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?«
nsb@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered: »I have no demon. I honor my Father and you dishonor me.
nsb@John:8:50 @ »I do not seek my own glory. There is one that seeks and judges.
nsb@John:8:51 @ »Truly I tell you if a man obeys my word he will never see death.«
nsb@John:8:52 @ The Jews said to him: »Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham and the prophets died. And you say if a man obeys my word he will never taste of death.
nsb@John:8:53 @ »Are you greater than our father Abraham? He died! The prophets also died. Who do you make yourself out to be?«
nsb@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered: »If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. My Father glorifies me. He is the one whom you say is your God.
nsb@John:8:55 @ »You do not know him. I know him. If I say I do not know him I would be like you, a liar! But I know him and obey his word.
nsb@John:8:56 @ »Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it and was glad.«
nsb@John:8:57 @ The Jews replied: »You are not yet fifty years old. Have you seen Abraham?«
nsb@John:8:58 @ Jesus said: »I tell you the truth, I existed before Abraham was born!« (Ex strkjv@3:14-15)
nsb@John:8:59 @ They took up stones to throw at him. But Jesus hid himself and left the temple.
