John 8:25–47

25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same zthat I said unto you from the beginning. 26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is atrue; and I speak to the world those things which I have bheard of him. 27 cThey understood not that he spake to them of the Father. 28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have dlifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that yI am he, and that eI do nothing of myself; but fas my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. 29 And he that sent me is gwith me: hthe Father hath not left me alone; ifor I do always those things that please him. 30 As he spake these words, kmany believed on him.

31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, lIf ye continue in my word, then lare ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know mthe truth, and the truth nshall make you free. 33 They answered him, oWe be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, pYe shall be made free? 34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, qWhosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. 35 And rthe servant abideth not in the house for ever: but sthe Son abideth ever. 36 If tthe Son therefore nshall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. 37 I know that oye are Abraham’s useed; but wye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. 38 I speak that which I have xseen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with yyour father. 39 They answered and said unto him, oAbraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, zIf ye were Abraham’s uchildren, ye would do the works of Abraham. 40 But now aye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have bheard of God: this did not Abraham. 41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, cWe be not born of fornication; we have done Father, even God. 42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, eye would love me: for fI proceeded forth and came from God; gneither came I of myself, but hhe sent me. 43 iWhy do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot jhear my word. 44 kYe are of lyour father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was ma murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When nhe speaketh a lie, he speaketh of ohis own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 46 pWhich of you qconvinceth me of rsin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 47 sHe that is of God jheareth God’s words: ye therefore jhear them not, because tye are not of God.
