 8:1  Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
 8:2  And early in the morning he came again into the temple,
and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught
them.
 8:3  And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman
taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
 8:4  They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in
adultery, in the very act.
 8:5  Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be
stoned: but what sayest thou?
 8:6  This they said, tempting him, that they might have to
accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with [his] finger wrote
on the ground, [as though he heard them not].
 8:7  So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself,
and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him
first cast a stone at her.
 8:8  And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
 8:9  And they which heard [it], being convicted by [their own]
conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest,
[even] unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman
standing in the midst.
 8:10  When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the
woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers?
hath no man condemned thee?
 8:11  She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither
do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
 8:12  Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light
of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness,
but shall have the light of life.
 8:13  The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest
record of thyself; thy record is not true.
 8:14  Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record
of myself, [yet] my record is true: for I know whence I came,
and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither
I go.
 8:15  Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
 8:16  And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not
alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
 8:17  It is also written in your law, that the testimony of
two men is true.
 8:18  I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father
that sent me beareth witness of me.
 8:19  Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus
answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known
me, ye should have known my Father also.
 8:20  These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in
the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not
yet come.
 8:21  Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye
shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye
cannot come.
 8:22  Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he
saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
 8:23  And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from
above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
 8:24  I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your
sins: for if ye believe not that I am [he], ye shall die in
your sins.
 8:25  Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith
unto them, Even [the same] that I said unto you from the
beginning.
 8:26  I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he
that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things
which I have heard of him.
 8:27  They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
 8:28  Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the
Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do
nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak
these things.
 8:29  And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left
me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
 8:30  As he spake these words, many believed on him.
 8:31  Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If
ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples indeed;
 8:32  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make
you free.
 8:33  They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never
in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
 8:34  Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
 8:35  And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: [but]
the Son abideth ever.
 8:36  If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be
free indeed.
 8:37  I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill
me, because my word hath no place in you.
 8:38  I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do
that which ye have seen with your father.
 8:39  They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father.
Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would
do the works of Abraham.
 8:40  But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the
truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
 8:41  Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him,
We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.
 8:42  Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would
love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came
I of myself, but he sent me.
 8:43  Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye
cannot hear my word.
 8:44  Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your
father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and
abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When
he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar,
and the father of it.
 8:45  And because I tell [you] the truth, ye believe me not.
 8:46  Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the
truth, why do ye not believe me?
 8:47  He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear
[them] not, because ye are not of God.
 8:48  Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not
well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
 8:49  Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my
Father, and ye do dishonour me.
 8:50  And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh
and judgeth.
 8:51  Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying,
he shall never see death.
 8:52  Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast
a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If
a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.
 8:53  Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead?
and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
 8:54  Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is
nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say,
that he is your God:
 8:55  Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I
should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you:
but I know him, and keep his saying.
 8:56  Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw
[it], and was glad.
 8:57  Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty
years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
 8:58  Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Before Abraham was, I am.
 8:59  Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid
himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of
them, and so passed by.
