John 8:14

Jesus said in answer, Even if I give witness about myself, my witness is true, because I have knowledge of where I came from and where I am going; but you have no knowledge of where I come from or of where I am going.

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.

John 8:24

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?`

They answered him, "We are Abraham's seed, and have never yet been in bondage to anyone. How do you say, 'You will be made free?'"

John 8:34

And this was the answer Jesus gave them: Truly I say to you, Everyone who does evil is the servant of sin.

Jesus answered them, `Verily, verily, I say to you Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin,

Jesus answered them, "Most assuredly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.

John 8:35

Now the servant does not go on living in the house for ever, but the son does.

and the servant doth not remain in the house to the age, the son doth remain to the age;

if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free.

If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.

John 8:40

But now you have a desire to put me to death, a man who has said to you what is true, as I had it from God: Abraham did not do that.

and now, ye seek to kill me a man who hath spoken to you the truth I heard from God; this Abraham did not;

Why are my words not clear to you? It is because your ears are shut to my teaching.

wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.

Why don't you understand my speech? Because you can't hear my word.

John 8:44

You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.

`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.

You are of your Father, the devil, and it is your desire to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn't 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 it.

Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me?

Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?

John 8:47

He who is a child of God gives ear to the words of God: your ears are not open to them because you are not from God.

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.`

He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don't hear, because you are not of God."

John 8:48

The Jews said to him in answer, Are we not right in saying that you are of Samaria and have an evil spirit?

The Jews, therefore, answered and said to him, `Do we not say well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?`

Then the Jews answered him, "Don't we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?"

John 8:49

And this was the answer of Jesus: I have not an evil spirit; but I give honour to my Father and you do not give honour to me.

Jesus answered, `I have not a demon, but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me;

Jesus answered, "I don't have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.

John 8:50

I, however, am not in search of glory for myself: there is One who is searching for it and he is judge.

John 8:52

The Jews said to him, Now we are certain that you have an evil spirit. Abraham is dead, and the prophets are dead; and you say, If a man keeps my word he will never see death.

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!

Then 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.'

John 8:53

Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: who do you say that you are?

Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died; whom dost thou make thyself?`

Are you greater than our father, Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?"

John 8:54

Jesus said in answer, If I take glory for myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who gives me glory, of whom you say that he is your God.

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;

Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is our God.

John 8:55

You have no knowledge of him, but I have knowledge of him; and if I said I have no knowledge of him I would be talking falsely like you: but I have full knowledge of him, and I keep his word.

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;

John 8:58

Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, Before Abraham came into being, I am.

Jesus said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham`s coming I am;`

Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I tell you, before Abraham was born, I AM."
