Jesus answered, You{+} know neither me, nor my Father: if you{+} knew me, you{+} would know my Father also. 20These words he spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man took him; because his hour was not yet come. 21He said therefore again to them, I go away, and you{+} will seek me, and will die in your{+} sin: where I go, you{+} can't come. 22The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he says, Where I go, you{+} can't come? 23And he said to them, You{+} are from beneath; I am from above: you{+} are of this world; I am not of this world. 24I said therefore to you{+}, that you{+} will die in your{+} sins: for except you{+} believe that I am [he], you{+} will die in your{+} sins. 25They said therefore to him, Who are you? Jesus said to them, Even that which I have also spoken to you{+} from the beginning. 26I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you{+}: nevertheless he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I speak to the world. 27They didn't perceive that he spoke to them of the Father. 28Jesus therefore said to them, When you{+} have lifted up the Son of Man, then you{+} will know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I speak these things. 29And he who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone; for I always do the things that are pleasing to him. 30As he spoke these things, many believed on him. 31Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed him, If you{+} stay in my word, [then] you{+} are truly my disciples; 32and you{+} will know the truth, and the truth will make you{+} free. 33They answered to him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never yet served as any man's slaves: how do you say, You{+} will be made free? 34Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you{+}, Everyone who commits sin is the slave of sin. 35And the slave doesn't stay in the house forever: the son stays forever. 36If therefore the Son will make you{+} free, you{+} will be free indeed. 37I know that you{+} are Abraham's seed: yet you{+} seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you{+}. 38I speak the things which I have seen from the Father. And you{+} therefore, [should] do the things which you{+} heard from the Father. 39They answered and said to him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus says to them, If you{+} were Abraham's children, you{+} would be doing the works of Abraham. 40But now you{+} seek to kill me, a man who has told you{+} the truth, which I heard from God: Abraham did not do this. 41You{+} do the works of your{+} father. Therefore they said to him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God. 42Jesus said to them, If God were your{+} Father, you{+} would love me: for I came forth and have come from God; for neither have I come of myself, but he sent me. 43Why don't you{+} understand my speech? [Even] because you{+} can't hear my word. 44You{+} are of the father the devil, and the desires of your{+} father it is your{+} will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and did not stand 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 lies. 45But because I say the truth, you{+} don't believe me. 46Which of you{+} convicts me of sin? If I say truth, why don't you{+} believe me? 47He who is of God hears the words of God: for this cause you{+} do not hear [them], because you{+} are not of God. 48The Jews answered and said to him, Do we not say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon? 49Jesus answered, I do not have a demon; but I honor my Father, and you{+} dishonor me. 50But I don't seek my own glory: there is one who seeks and judges. 51Truly, truly, I say to you{+}, If a man keeps my word, he will never see death. 52Therefore the Jews said to him, Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and you say, If a man keeps my word, he will never taste of death. 53Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets died: whom do you make yourself? 54Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who glorifies me; of whom you{+} say, He is our God; 55and you{+} have not known him: but I know him; and if I should say, I don't know him, I will be like you{+}, a liar: but I know him, and keep his word. 56Your{+} father Abraham rejoiced to see my day; and he saw it, and was glad. 57The Jews therefore said to him, You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham? 58Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you{+}, Before Abraham was born, I am. 59They took up stones therefore to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
