John 8:14-23

¹⁴Jhesus 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.

¹⁵But ye witen not fro whennus Y cam, ne whidur Y go. For ye demen aftir the fleisch, but Y deme no man;

¹⁶and if Y deme, my doom is trewe, for Y am not aloone, but Y and the fadir that sente me.

¹⁷And in youre lawe it is writun, that the witnessyng of twei men is trewe.

¹⁸Y am, that bere witnessyng of my silf, and the fadir that sente me, berith witnessyng of me.

¹⁹Therfor 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.

²⁰Jhesus spak these wordis in the tresorie, techynge in the temple; and no man took hym, for his our cam not yit.

²¹Therfor 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.

²²Therfor the Jewis seiden, Whether he schal sle hym silf, for he seith, Whidur Y go, ye moun not come?

²³And he seide to hem, Ye ben of bynethe, Y am of aboue; ye ben of this world, Y am not of this world.
