‏ John 8

1 But Jhesus wente in to the mount of Olyuete. 2 And eerli eft he cam in to the temple; and al the puple cam to hym; and he sat, and tauyte hem. 3 And scribis and Fariseis bryngen a womman takun in auoutrye, and thei settiden hir in the myddil, 4 and seiden to hym, Maystir, this womman is now takun in auoutrie. 5 And in the lawe Moises comaundide vs to stoone suche; therfor what seist thou? 6 And thei seiden this thing temptynge hym, that thei myyten accuse hym. And Jhesus bowide hym silf doun, and wroot with his fyngur in the erthe. 7 And whanne thei abiden axynge hym, he reiside hym silf, and seide to hem, He of you that is without synne, first caste a stoon in to hir. 8 And eft he bowide hym silf, and wroot in the erthe. 9 And thei herynge these thingis, wenten awei oon aftir anothir, and thei bigunnen fro the eldre men; and Jhesus dwelte aloone, and the womman stondynge in the myddil. 10 And Jhesus reiside hym silf, and seide to hir, Womman, where ben thei that accusiden thee? no man hath dampned thee. 11 Sche seide, No man, Lord. Jhesus seide `to hir, Nethir Y schal dampne thee; go thou, and now aftirward nyle thou synne more. 12 Therfor eft Jhesus spak to hem, and seide, Y am the liyt of the world; he that sueth me, walkith not in derknessis, but schal haue the liyt of lijf. 13 Therfor the Fariseis seiden, Thou berist witnessyng of thi silf; thi witnessyng is not trewe. 14 Jhesus answerde, and seide to hem, And if Y bere witnessyng of my silf, my witnessyng is trewe; for Y woot fro whennus Y cam, and whidur Y go. 15 But ye witen not fro whennus Y cam, ne whidur Y go. For ye demen aftir the fleisch, but Y deme no man; 16 and if Y deme, my doom is trewe, for Y am not aloone, but Y and the fadir that sente me. 17 And in youre lawe it is writun, that the witnessyng of twei men is trewe. 18 Y am, that bere witnessyng of my silf, and the fadir that sente me, berith witnessyng of me. 19 Therfor thei seiden to hym, Where is thi fadir? Jhesus answeride, Nether ye knowen me, nethir ye knowen my fadir; if ye knewen me, perauenture ye schulden knowe also my fadir. 20 Jhesus spak these wordis in the tresorie, techynge in the temple; and no man took hym, for his our cam not yit. 21 Therfor eft Jhesus seide to hem, Lo! Y go, and ye schulen seke me, and ye schulen die in youre synne; whidur Y go, ye moun not come. 22 Therfor the Jewis seiden, Whether he schal sle hym silf, for he seith, Whidur Y go, ye moun not come? 23 And he seide to hem, Ye ben of bynethe, Y am of aboue; ye ben of this world, Y am not of this world. 24 Therfor Y seide to you, that ye schulen die in youre synnes; for if ye bileuen not that Y am, ye schulen die in youre synne. 25 Therfor thei seiden to hym, Who art thou? Jhesus seide to hem, The bigynnyng, which also speke to you. 26 Y haue many thingis to speke, and deme of you, but he that sente me is sothefast; and Y speke in the world these thingis, that Y herde of hym. 27 And thei knewen not, that he clepide his fadir God. 28 Therfor Jhesus seith to hem, Whanne ye han areisid mannus sone, thanne ye schulen knowe, that Y am, and of my silf Y do no thing; but as my fadir tauyte me, Y speke these thingis. 29 And he that sente me is with me, and lefte me not aloone; for Y do euermore tho thingis, that ben plesynge to hym. 30 Whanne he spak these thingis, manye bileueden in hym. 31 Therfor Jhesus seide to the Jewis, that bileueden in hym, If ye dwellen in my word, verili ye schulen be my disciplis; 32 and ye schulen knowe the treuthe, and the treuthe schal make you fre. 33 Therfor the Jewis answeriden to hym, We ben the seed of Abraham, and we serueden neuere to man; hou seist thou, That ye schulen be fre? 34 Jhesus answeride to hem, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, ech man that doith synne, is seruaunt of synne. 35 And the seruaunt dwellith not in the hows with outen ende, but the sone dwellith with outen ende. 36 Therfor if the sone make you fre, verili ye schulen be fre. 37 Y woot that ye ben Abrahams sones, but ye seken to sle me, for my word takith not in you. 38 Y speke tho thingis, that Y say at my fadir; and ye doen tho thingis, that ye sayn at youre fadir. 39 Thei answerden, and seiden to hym, Abraham is oure fadir. Jhesus seith to hem, If ye ben the sones of Abraham, do ye the werkis of Abraham. 40 But now ye seken to sle `me, a man that haue spoken to you treuthe, that Y herde of God; Abraham dide not this thing. 41 Ye doen the werkis of youre fadir. Therfor thei seiden to hym, We ben not borun of fornycacioun; we han o fadir, God. 42 But Jhesus seith to hem, If God were youre fadir, sotheli ye schulden loue me; for Y passide forth of God, and cam; for nether Y cam of my silf, but he sente me. 43 Whi knowen ye not my speche? for ye moun not here my word. 44 Ye ben of the fadir, the deuel, and ye wolen do the desyris of youre fadir. He was a mansleere fro the bigynnyng, and he stood not in treuthe; for treuthe is not in hym. Whanne he spekith lesyng, he spekith of his owne; for he is a liere, and fadir of it. 45 But for Y seie treuthe, ye bileuen not to me. 46 Who of you schal repreue me of synne? if Y sey treuthe, whi bileuen ye not to me? 47 He that is of God, herith the wordis of God; therfor ye heren not, for ye ben not of God. 48 Therfor the Jewis answeriden, and seiden, Whether we seien not wel, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a deuel? 49 Jhesus answerde, and seide, Y haue not a deuel, but Y onoure my fadir, and ye han vnhonourid me. 50 For Y seke not my glorye; there is he, that sekith, and demeth. 51 Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, if ony man kepe my word, he schal not taste deth with outen ende. 52 Therfor the Jewis seiden, Now we han knowun, that thou hast a deuel. Abraham is deed, and the prophetis, and thou seist, If ony man kepe my word, he schal not taste deth withouten ende. 53 Whether thou art grettere than oure fader Abraham, that is deed, and the prophetis ben deed; whom makist thou thi silf? 54 Jhesus answeride, If Y glorifie my silf, my glorie is nouyt; my fadir, is that glorifieth me, whom ye seien, that he is youre God. 55 And ye han not knowun hym, but Y haue knowun hym; and if Y seie that Y knowe hym not, Y schal be a liere lich to you; but Y knowe hym, and Y kepe his word. 56 Abraham, youre fadir, gladide to se my dai; and he saiy, and ioyede. 57 Thanne the Jewis seiden to hym, Thou hast not yit fifti yeer, and hast thou seien Abraham? 58 Therfor Jhesus seide to hem, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, bifor that Abraham schulde be, Y am. 59 Therfor thei token stonys, to caste to hym; but Jhesus hidde hym, and wente out of the temple.
