| 8:1 | And at dawn he came again to the temple, |
| 8:2 | and all the people were coming unto him, and having sat down, he was teaching them; |
| 8:3 | and the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman having been taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst, |
| 8:4 | they say to him, `Teacher, this woman was taken in the very crime -- committing adultery, |
| 8:5 | and in the law, Moses did command us that such be stoned; thou, therefore, what dost thou say?' |
| 8:6 | and this they said, trying him, that they might have to accuse him. And Jesus, having stooped down, with the finger he was writing on the ground, |
| 8:7 | and when they continued asking him, having bent himself back, he said unto them, `The sinless of you -- let him first cast the stone at her;' |
| 8:8 | and again having stooped down, he was writing on the ground, |
| 8:9 | and they having heard, and by the conscience being convicted, were going forth one by one, having begun from the elders -- unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. |
| 8:10 | And Jesus having bent himself back, and having seen no one but the woman, said to her, `Woman, where are those -- thine accusers? did no one pass sentence upon thee?' |
| 8:11 | and she said, `No one, Sir;' and Jesus said to her, `Neither do I pass sentence on thee; be going on, and no more sin.' |
| 8:12 | Again, therefore, Jesus spake to them, saying, `I am the light of the world; he who is following me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the light of the life.' |
| 8:13 | The Pharisees, therefore, said to him, `Thou of thyself dost testify, thy testimony is not true;' |
| 8:14 | Jesus answered and said to them, `And if I testify of myself -- my testimony is true, because I have known whence I came, and whither I go, and ye -- ye have not known whence I come, or whither I go. |
| 8:15 | `Ye according to the flesh do judge; I do not judge any one, |
| 8:16 | and even if I do judge my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me; |
| 8:17 | and also in your law it hath been written, that the testimony of two men are true; |
| 8:18 | I am `one' who is testifying of myself, and the Father who sent me doth testify of me.' |
| 8:19 | They said, therefore, to him, `Where is thy father?' Jesus answered, `Ye have neither known me nor my Father: if me ye had known, my Father also ye had known.' |
| 8:20 | These sayings spake Jesus in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come; |
| 8:21 | therefore said Jesus again to them, `I go away, and ye will seek me, and in your sin ye shall die; whither I go away, ye are not able to come.' |
| 8:22 | The Jews, therefore, said, `Will he kill himself, because he saith, Whither I go away, ye are not able to come?' |
| 8:23 | and he said to 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, to you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye may not believe that I am `he', ye shall die in your sins.' |
| 8:25 | They said, therefore, to him, `Thou -- who art thou?' and Jesus said to them, `Even what I did speak of to you at the beginning; |
| 8:26 | many things I have to speak concerning you and to judge, but He who sent me is true, and I -- what things I heard from Him -- these I say to the world.' |
| 8:27 | They knew not that of the Father he spake to them; |
| 8:28 | Jesus, therefore, said to them, `When ye may lift up the Son of Man then ye will know that I am `he'; and of myself I do nothing, but according as my Father did teach me, these things I speak; |
| 8:29 | and He who sent me is with me; the Father did not leave me alone, because I, the things pleasing to Him, do always.' |
| 8:30 | As he is speaking these things, many believed in him; |
| 8:31 | Jesus, therefore, said unto the Jews who believed in him, `If ye may remain in my word, truly my disciples ye are, and ye shall know the truth, |
| 8:32 | and the truth shall make you free.' |
| 8:33 | They answered him, `Seed of Abraham we are; and to no one have we been servants at any time; how dost thou say -- Ye shall become free?' |
| 8:34 | Jesus answered them, `Verily, verily, I say to you -- Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin, |
| 8:35 | and the servant doth not remain in the house -- to the age, the son doth remain -- to the age; |
| 8:36 | if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free. |
| 8:37 | `I have known that ye are seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you; |
| 8:38 | I -- that which I have seen with my Father do speak, and ye, therefore, that which ye have seen with your father -- ye do.' |
| 8:39 | They answered and said to him, `Our father is Abraham;' Jesus saith to them, `If children of Abraham ye were, the works of Abraham ye were doing; |
| 8:40 | and now, ye seek to kill me -- a man who hath spoken to you the truth I heard from God; this Abraham did not; |
| 8:41 | ye do the works of your father.' They said, therefore, to him, `We of whoredom have not been born; one Father we have -- God;' |
| 8:42 | Jesus then said to them, `If God were your father, ye were loving me, for I came forth from God, and am come; for neither have I come of myself, but He sent me; |
| 8:43 | wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word. |
| 8:44 | `Ye are of a father -- the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar -- also his father. |
| 8:45 | `And because I say the truth, ye do not believe me. |
| 8:46 | Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me? |
| 8:47 | he who is of God, the sayings of God he doth hear; because of this ye do not hear, because of God ye are not.' |
| 8:48 | The Jews, therefore, answered and said to him, `Do we not say well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?' |
| 8:49 | Jesus answered, `I have not a demon, but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me; |
| 8:50 | and I do not seek my own glory; there is who is seeking and is judging; |
| 8:51 | verily, verily, I say to you, If any one may keep my word, death he may not see -- to the age.' |
| 8:52 | The Jews, therefore, said to him, `Now we have known that thou hast a demon; Abraham did die, and the prophets, and thou dost say, If any one may keep my word, he shall not taste of death -- to the age! |
| 8:53 | Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died; whom dost thou make thyself?' |
| 8:54 | Jesus answered, `If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who is glorifying me, of whom ye say that He is your God; |
| 8:55 | and ye have not known Him, and I have known Him, and if I say that I have not known Him, I shall be like you -- speaking falsely; but I have known Him, and His word I keep; |
| 8:56 | Abraham, your father, was glad that he might see my day; and he saw, and did rejoice.' |
| 8:57 | The Jews, therefore, said unto him, `Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?' |
| 8:58 | Jesus said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham's coming -- I am;' |
| 8:59 | they took up, therefore, stones that they may cast at him, but Jesus hid himself, and went forth out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by. |
| 8:1 | And Iesus went vnto mounte Olivete |
| 8:2 | and erly in ye mornynge came agayne into ye temple and all the people came vnto him and he sate doune and taught them. |
| 8:3 | And the scribes and ye pharises brought vnto him a woman taken in advoutry and set hyr in the myddes |
| 8:4 | and sayde vnto him: Master this woman was taken in advoutry even as the dede was a doyng. |
| 8:5 | Moses in the lawe comaunded vs yt suche shuld be stoned. What sayest thou therfore? |
| 8:6 | And this they sayde to tempt him: that they myght have wherof to accuse him. Iesus stouped doune and with his fynger wrote on the grounde. |
| 8:7 | And whyll they continued axynge him he lyfte him selfe vp and sayde vnto them: let him yt is amoge you wt out synne cast the fyrst stone at her. |
| 8:8 | And agayne he stouped doune and wrote on ye grounde. |
| 8:9 | And assone as they hearde that they went out one by one the eldest fyrst. And Iesus was lefte a lone and the woman stondynge in ye myddes. |
| 8:10 | When Iesus had lyfte vp him selfe agayne and sawe no man but the woman he sayde vnto hyr. Woman where are those thyne accusars? Hath no man condempned the? |
| 8:11 | She sayde: No man Lorde. And Iesus sayde: Nether do I condempne the. Goo and synne no moare. |
| 8:12 | Then spake Iesus agayne vnto them sayinge: I am the light of the worlde. He that foloweth me shall not walke in darcknes: but shall have the light of lyfe. |
| 8:13 | The pharises sayde vnto him: thou bearest recorde of thy sylfe thy recorde is not true. |
| 8:14 | Iesus answered and sayde vnto them: Though I beare recorde of my selfe yet my recorde is true: for I knowe whece I came and whyther I goo. But ye cannot tell whece I come and whyther I goo. |
| 8:15 | Ye iudge after ye flesshe. I iudge no man |
| 8:16 | though I iudge yet is my iudgmet true. For I am not alone: but I and the father that sent me. |
| 8:17 | It is also written in youre lawe that the testimony of two men is true. |
| 8:18 | I am one yt beare witnes of my selfe and the father that sent me beareth witnes of me. |
| 8:19 | Then sayde they vnto him: where is thy father? Iesus answered: ye nether knowe me nor yet my father. Yf ye had knowen me ye shuld have knowen my father also. |
| 8:20 | These wordes spake Iesus in the tresury as he taught in the temple and no man layde hondes on him for his tyme was not yet come. |
| 8:21 | Then sayde Iesus agayne vnto them. I goo my waye and ye shall seke me and shall dye in youre synnes. Whyther I goo thyther can ye not come. |
| 8:22 | Then sayde the Iewes: will he kyll him selfe because he sayth: whyther I goo thyther can ye not come? |
| 8:23 | And he sayde vnto the: ye are fro beneth I am from above. Ye are of this worlde I am not of this worlde. |
| 8:24 | I sayde therfore vnto you that ye shall dye in youre synnes. For except ye beleve that I am he ye shall dye in youre synnes. |
| 8:25 | Then sayde they vnto him who arte thou? And Iesus sayde vnto them: Even ye very same thinge yt I saye vnto you. |
| 8:26 | I have many thinges to saye and to iudge of you. But he yt sent me is true. And I speake in ye worlde those thinges which I have hearde of him. |
| 8:27 | They understode not that he spake of his father. |
| 8:28 | Then sayde Iesus vnto them: when ye have lyft vp an hye the sonne of man then shall ye knowe that I am he and that I do nothinge of my selfe: but as my father hath taught me even so I speake: |
| 8:29 | and he that sent me is with me. The father hath not lefte me alone for I do alwayes those thinges that please him. |
| 8:30 | As he spake these wordes many beleved on him. |
| 8:31 | Then sayde Iesus to those Iewes which beleved on him. If ye cotinue in my wordes then are ye my very disciples |
| 8:32 | and shall knowe the trueth: and the trueth shall make you free. |
| 8:33 | They answered him: We be Abrahams seede and were never bonde to eny man: why sayest thou then ye shalbe made fre. |
| 8:34 | Iesus answered them: verely verely I saye vnto you that whosoever committeth synne is the servaunt of synne. |
| 8:35 | And the servaunt abydeth not in the housse for ever: But ye sonne abydeth ever. |
| 8:36 | If the sonne therfore shall make you fre then are ye fre in dede. |
| 8:37 | I knowe that ye are Abrahams seed: But ye seke meanes to kyll me because my sayinges have no place in you. |
| 8:38 | I speake that I have sene with my father: and ye do that which ye have sene with youre father. |
| 8:39 | They answered and sayde vnto him: Abraham is oure father. Iesus sayde vnto them. If ye were Abrahams chyldren ye wolde do the dedes of Abraham. |
| 8:40 | But now ye goo about io kyll me a man that have tolde you the truthe which I have herde of god: this dyd not Abraham. |
| 8:41 | Ye do the dedes of youre father. Then sayde they vnto him: we were not borne of fornicacion. We have one father which is God. |
| 8:42 | Iesus sayde vnto them: yf God were youre father then wolde ye love me. For I proceaded forthe and come from God. Nether came I of my selfe but he sent me. |
| 8:43 | Why do ye not knowe my speache? Even because ye cannot abyde the hearynge of my wordes. |
| 8:44 | Ye are of youre father the devyll and the lustes of youre father ye will folowe. He was a murtherer from the beginnynge and aboode not in the trueth because ther is no trueth in him. When he speaketh a lye then speaketh he of his awne. For he is a lyar and the father therof. |
| 8:45 | And because I tell you ye trueth therfore ye beleve me not. |
| 8:46 | Which of you can rebuke me of synne? If I saye ye trueth why do not ye beleve me? |
| 8:47 | He that is of God heareth goddes wordes Ye therfore heare them not because ye are not of God. |
| 8:48 | Then answered the Iewes and sayde vnto him: Saye we not well that thou arte a Samaritane and hast the devyll? |
| 8:49 | Iesus answered: I have not the devyll: but I honour my father and ye have dishonoured me. |
| 8:50 | I seke not myne awne prayse: but ther is one that seketh and iudgeth. |
| 8:51 | Verely verely I saye vnto you yf a man kepe my sayinges he shall never se deeth. |
| 8:52 | Then sayde the Iewes to him: Now knowe we that thou hast the devyll. Abraha is deed and also the Prophetes: and yet thou sayest yf a man kepe my sayinge he shall never tast of deeth. |
| 8:53 | Arte thou greater then oure father Abraham which is deed? and the Prophetes are deed. Whome makest thou thy selfe? |
| 8:54 | Iesus answered: Yf I honoure my selfe myne honoure is nothinge worth. It is my father that honoureth me which ye saye is youre God |
| 8:55 | and ye have not knowen him: but I knowe him. And yf I shuld saye I knowe him not I shuld be a lyar lyke vnto you. But I knowe him and kepe his sayinge. |
| 8:56 | Youre father Abraham was glad to se my daye and he sawe it and reioysed. |
| 8:57 | Then sayde the Iewes vnto him: thou arte not yet.l. yere olde and hast thou sene Abraham? |
| 8:58 | Iesus sayd vnto them: Verely verely I saye vnto you: yer Abraham was I am. |
| 8:59 | Then toke they vp stones to caste at him. But Iesus hid him selfe and went out of ye temple. |
| 8:1 | Iesus wente vnto mount Oliuete, |
| 8:2 | and early in the mornynge came he agayne in to the temple, and all the people came vnto him. And he sat downe, and taught them. |
| 8:3 | And ye scrybes and Pharises brought vnto him a woman taken in aduoutrye, and set her there openly, |
| 8:4 | and sayde vnto him: Master, this woman was taken in aduoutrye, eue as the dede was adoynge. |
| 8:5 | Moses in the lawe commaunded vs to stone soch. What sayest thou? |
| 8:6 | This they sayde, to tempte him, that they might haue wherof to accuse him. But Iesus stouped downe, and wrote with his fynger vpo the grounde. |
| 8:7 | Now whyle they contynued axynge him, he lift him self vp, and sayde vnto them: He that is amonge you without synne, let him cast the first stone at her. |
| 8:8 | And he stouped downe agayne, and wrote vpon the grounde. |
| 8:9 | But whan they herde that, they wente out, one after another: the eldest first, and left Iesus alone, and the woman stondinge before him. |
| 8:10 | Iesus lift himself vp, and whan be sawe no man but the woman, he sayde vnto her: Woman, where are thine accusers? Hath noman condempned the? |
| 8:11 | She sayde: LORDE, no man. Iesus sayde: Nether do I codempne the, Go thy waye, and synne nomore. |
| 8:12 | Then spake Iesus agayne vnto them, and sayde: I am the light of the worlde. He that foloweth me, shal not walke in darknesse, but shal haue the light of life. |
| 8:13 | Then sayde the Pharises vnto him: Thou bearest recorde of thy self, thy recorde is not true. |
| 8:14 | Iesus answered, and sayde vnto them: Though I beare recorde of my self, yet my recorde is true: for I knowe whence I came, and whither I go: but ye can not tell whence I come, and whither I go. |
| 8:15 | Ye iudge after the flesh, I iudge no man: |
| 8:16 | but yf I iudge, my iudgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the father that hath sent me. |
| 8:17 | It is wrytten also in youre lawe, that the testimony of two men is true. |
| 8:18 | I am one that beare wytnesse of my self: And the father that sent me, beareth wytnes of me also. |
| 8:19 | Then sayde they vnto him: Where is thy father? Iesus answered: Ye nether knowe me ner yet my father.Yf ye knewe me, ye shulde knowe my father also. |
| 8:20 | These wordes spake Iesus vpon the Godschest, as he taught in the teple. And noman toke him, for his houre was not yet come. |
| 8:21 | Then sayde Iesus agayne vnto them: I go my waye, and ye shal seke me, and shal dye in youre synnes: whither I go, thither can not ye come. |
| 8:22 | Then sayde ye Iewes: Wyl he kyll him self then, that he sayeth: whither I go, thither can not ye come? |
| 8:23 | And he sayde vnto them: Ye are from beneth, I am from aboue: Ye are of this worlde, I am not of this worlde. |
| 8:24 | Therfore haue I sayde vnto you, that ye shal dye in youre synnes. For yf ye beleue not that I am he, ye shal dye in youre synnes. |
| 8:25 | Then sayde they vnto him: Who art thou then? And Iesus sayde vnto the: Eue the very same thinge that I saye vnto you. |
| 8:26 | I haue many thinges to saye and to iudge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and loke what I haue herde of him,that speake I before the worlde, |
| 8:27 | Howbeit they vnderstode not, that he spake of the father. |
| 8:28 | Then sayde Iesus vnto them: Whan ye haue lift vp an hye the sonne of man, then shal ye knowe that I am he, and that I do nothinge of my self: but as my father hath taught me, euen so I speake. |
| 8:29 | And he that sent me, is with me. The father leaueth me not alone, for I do alwaie that pleaseth him. |
| 8:30 | Whan he thus spake, many beleued on him. Then sayde Iesus vnto the Iewes, that beleued on him: |
| 8:31 | Yf ye contynue in my worde, then are ye my very disciples, |
| 8:32 | and ye shall knowe the trueth, and the trueth shal make you fre. |
| 8:33 | Then answered they him: We are Abrahams sede, we were neuer bonde to eny man, how sayest thou then: Ye shal be fre? |
| 8:34 | Iesus answered them, and sayde: Verely verely I saye vnto you: Who so euer doth synne, |
| 8:35 | is the seruaunt of synne: As for the seruaunt, he abydeth not in the house for euer, |
| 8:36 | but the sonne abydeth euer. Yf the sonne therfore make you fre, then are ye fre in dede. |
| 8:37 | I knowe that ye are Abrahams sede, but ye seke to kyll me. For my worde taketh not amonge you. |
| 8:38 | I speake that I haue sene of my father, & ye do that ye haue sene of youre father. |
| 8:39 | They answered, and sayde vnto him: Abraham is oure father. Iesus sayde vnto them: Yf ye were Abrahams children, ye wolde do the dedes of Abraham. |
| 8:40 | But now ye go aboute to kyll me, a man, that haue tolde you the trueth, which I haue herde of God, this dyd not Abraham. |
| 8:41 | Ye do the dedes of youre father. Then sayde they vnto him: We are not borne of fornicacion, we haue one father, euen God. |
| 8:42 | Iesus sayde vnto them: Yf God were youre father, then wolde ye loue me. For I am proceaded forth, and come from God. For I am not come of my self, but he hath sent me. |
| 8:43 | Why knowe ye not the my speach? Eue because ye can not abyde the hearinge of my worde. |
| 8:44 | Ye are of the father the deuell, and after the lustes of youre father wyl ye do. The same was a murthurer from the begynnynge, and abode not in the trueth: for the trueth is not in him. Whan he speaketh a lye, then speaketh he of his awne: for he is a |
| 8:45 | But because I saye the trueth, ye beleue me not. |
| 8:46 | Which of you can rebuke me of one synne? Yf I saye the trueth, why do ye not beleue me? |
| 8:47 | He that is of God, heareth Gods worde. Therfore heare ye not, because ye are not of God. |
| 8:48 | Then answered the Iewes, and sayde vnto him: Saye we not right, that thou art a Samaritane, and hast the deuell? |
| 8:49 | Iesus answered: I haue no deuell, but I honoure my father, and ye haue dishonoured me. |
| 8:50 | I seke not myne awne prayse, but there is one that seketh it, and iudgeth. |
| 8:51 | Verely verely I saye vnto you: Yf eny man kepe my worde, he shal neuer se death. |
| 8:52 | Then sayde the Iewes vnto him: Now knowe me, that thou hast the deuell. Abraham is deed and the prophetes, and thou sayest: Yf eny ma kepe my worde, he shal neuer taist of death. |
| 8:53 | Art thou greater then oure father Abraham? which is deed, and the prophetes are deed? Who makest thou thy self? |
| 8:54 | Iesus answered: Yf I prayse myself, then is my prayse nothinge. But it is my father that prayseth me, which ye saye is youre God, |
| 8:55 | and ye knowe hi not: but I knowe him. And yf I shulde saye, I knowe him not, I shulde be a lyar, like vnto you. But I knowe him, and kepe his worde. |
| 8:56 | Abraham youre father was glad, that he shulde se my daye, And he sawe it, and reioysed. |
| 8:57 | Then sayde the Iewes vnto him: Thou art not yet fiftie yeare olde, and hast thou sene Abraham? |
| 8:58 | Iesus sayde vnto the: Verely verely I saye vnto you: Or euer Abraham was, I am. |
| 8:59 | Then toke they vp stones, to cast at him. But Iesus hyd himself, and wente out of the temple. |
