John 8:12–30

¹²Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. ¹³The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true. ¹⁴Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is true, because I know whence I came and whither I go: but ye know not whence I come and whither I go. ¹⁵Ye judge according to the flesh, I judge no one. ¹⁶And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me. ¹⁷And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true: ¹⁸I am one who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me. ¹⁹They said to him therefore, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father. ²⁰These words spoke he in the treasury, teaching in the temple; and no one took him, for his hour was not yet come.

²¹He said therefore again to them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin; where I go ye cannot come. ²²The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he says, Where I go ye cannot come? ²³And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above. Ye are of this world; I am not of this world. ²⁴I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins; for unless ye shall believe that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. ²⁵They said therefore to him, Who art thou? And Jesus said to them, Altogether that which I also say to you. ²⁶I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he that has sent me is true, and I, what I have heard from him, these things I say to the world. ²⁷They knew not that he spoke to them of the Father. ²⁸Jesus therefore said to them, When ye shall have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things. ²⁹And he that has sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, because I do always the things that are pleasing to him. ³⁰As he spoke these things many believed on him.
