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.
24Therfor 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.
25Therfor thei seiden to hym, Who art thou? Jhesus seide to hem, The bigynnyng, which also speke to you.
26Y 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.
27And thei knewen not, that he clepide his fadir God.
28Therfor 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.
29And he that sente me is with me, and lefte me not aloone; for Y do euermore tho thingis, that ben plesynge to hym.
30Whanne he spak these thingis, manye bileueden in hym.
31Therfor Jhesus seide to the Jewis, that bileueden in hym, If ye dwellen in my word, verili ye schulen be my disciplis;
32and ye schulen knowe the treuthe, and the treuthe schal make you fre.
33Therfor 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?
34Jhesus answeride to hem, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, ech man that doith synne, is seruaunt of synne.
35And the seruaunt dwellith not in the hows with outen ende, but the sone dwellith with outen ende.
36Therfor if the sone make you fre, verili ye schulen be fre.
37Y woot that ye ben Abrahams sones, but ye seken to sle me, for my word takith not in you.
38Y speke tho thingis, that Y say at my fadir; and ye doen tho thingis, that ye sayn at youre fadir.
39Thei 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.
40But now ye seken to sle `me, a man that haue spoken to you treuthe, that Y herde of God; Abraham dide not this thing.
41Ye doen the werkis of youre fadir. Therfor thei seiden to hym, We ben not borun of fornycacioun; we han o fadir, God.
42But 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.
43Whi knowen ye not my speche? for ye moun not here my word.
44Ye 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.
45But for Y seie treuthe, ye bileuen not to me.
46Who of you schal repreue me of synne? if Y sey treuthe, whi bileuen ye not to me?
47He that is of God, herith the wordis of God; therfor ye heren not, for ye ben not of God.
48Therfor the Jewis answeriden, and seiden, Whether we seien not wel, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a deuel?
49Jhesus answerde, and seide, Y haue not a deuel, but Y onoure my fadir, and ye han vnhonourid me.
50For Y seke not my glorye; there is he, that sekith, and demeth.
51Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, if ony man kepe my word, he schal not taste deth with outen ende.
