John 8

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