*
Then Jesus spoke again to them ,
saying ,
I am the light of the world :
he who follows me shall not walk in darkness ,
but shall have the light of life .
*
Therefore ,
the Pharisees said to him ,
You bear testimony of yourself ;
your testimony is not true .
*
Jesus answered and said to them ,
Though I bear testimony of myself ,
yet my testimony is true :
for I know where I came from ,
and where I go ;
but you do not know where I come from ,
or where I go .
*
You judge after the flesh ;
I judge no man .
*
And yet if I do judge ,
my judgment is true :
for I am not alone ,
but I am with he who sent me .
*
It is also written in your law ,
that the testimony of two men is true .
*
I am one who bears witness of myself ,
and the Father who sent me bears witness of me .
*
Then they said to him ,
Where is your Father ?
Jesus answered ,
You neither know me ,
nor my Father :
if you had known me ,
you would have known my Father also .
*
These words Jesus spoke in the treasury ,
as he taught in the temple :
and no man laid hands on him ;
for his hour had not yet come .
*
Then Jesus said again to them ,
I go my way ,
and you shall seek me ,
and shall die in your sins :
where I go ,
you cannot come .
*
Then the Jews said ,
Will he kill himself ?
because he said ,
Where I go ,
you cannot come .
*
And he said to them ,
You are from below ;
I am from above :
you are of this world ;
I am not of this world .
*
Therefore I said to you ,
that you shall die in your sins :
for if you do not believe that I am he ,
you shall die in your sins .
*
Then they said to him ,
Who are you ?
And Jesus said to them ,
That which I have been saying to you from the beginning .
*
I have many things to say and to judge about you :
but he who sent me is true ;
and I speak to the world those things which I have heard from him .
*
They did not understood that he spoke to them of the Father .
*
Then Jesus said to them ,
When you have lifted up the Son of man ,
then you shall know that I am he ,
and that I do nothing by myself ;
but I speak these things as my Father has taught me .
*
And he who sent me is with me :
the Father has not left me alone ;
for I always do those things that please him .
*
As he spoke these words ,
many believed in him .
