8

Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.

Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.

Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?

He that is of God heareth God"s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

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.

Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

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.

Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.

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.

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.

I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

I know that ye are Abraham"s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.

If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.

Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.

They answered him, We be Abraham"s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;

As he spake these words, many believed on him.

And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.

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.

They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.

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.

Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.

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.

And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.

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.
