12Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, rI am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have rthe light of life. 13The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true. 14Jesus answered and said unto them, sThough I bear record of myself, yet tmy record is true: for I know uxwhence I came, and xwhither I go; but yye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. 15Ye judge zafter the flesh; aI judge no man. 16And yet if I judge, bmy judgment is true: for cI am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. 17It is also written din your law, that the testimony of two men is true. 18I am one that bear witness of myself, and ethe Father that sent me beareth witness of me. 19Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, fYe neither know me, nor my Father: gif ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also. 20These words spake Jesus in hthe treasury, ias he taught in the temple: and kno man laid hands on him; for klhis hour was not yet come.

21Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and mye shall seek me, and nshall die in your sins: mqwhither I go, ye cannot come. 22Then said othe Jews, pWill he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come. 23And he said unto them, qYe are from beneath; rI am from above: ye are rsof this world; tI am not of this world. 24I said therefore unto you, that uye shall die in your sins: xfor if ye believe not that yI am he, ye shall die in your sins. 25Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same zthat I said unto you from the beginning. 26I 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. 27cThey understood not that he spake to them of the Father. 28Then 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. 29And he that sent me is gwith me: hthe Father hath not left me alone; ifor I do always those things that please him. 30As he spake these words, kmany believed on him.
