20These words he spoke in the treasury, while teaching in the temple; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.
21Again therefore he said to them, I go away, and ye will seek me, and will die in your sin. Whither I go, ye cannot come.
22The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come?
23And he said to them, Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world.
24Therefore I said to you, that ye will die in your sins; for unless ye believe that I am He, ye will die in your sins.
25They said therefore to him, Who art thou? Jesus said to them, In the first place, I am just that which I speak to you.
26I have many things to say, and to judge, concerning you; but he who sent me is true; and I speak to the world what I heard from him.
27They understood not that he spoke to them of the Father.
28Jesus therefore said, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then ye will know that I am He, and do nothing of myself, but speak these things as the Father taught me.
29And he that sent me is with me; he hath not left me alone, for I always do the things that please him.
30As he spoke these words, many believed in him.
31Jesus therefore said to those Jews who believed in him, If ye continue in my word, ye are truly my disciples;
32and ye will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.
33They answered him, We are Abraham's offspring, and have never been in bondage to any one; how sayest, thou, Ye will be made free?
34Jesus answered them, Truly, truly do I say to you, Every one that committeth sin is a bond-servant of sin.
35And the bond-servant abideth not in the house for ever; the son abideth for ever.
36If therefore the Son make you free, ye will be free indeed.
37I know that ye are Abraham's offspring; but ye seek to kill me, because my word is not received within you.
38I speak what I have seen with the Father; and ye accordingly do what ye have seen with your father.
39They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath spoken to you the truth, which I heard from God; this did not Abraham.
41Ye do the works of your father. They said to him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, God.
42Jesus said to them, If God were your father, ye would love me; for from God I proceeded forth and am come; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43Why do ye not understand my language? It is because ye cannot listen to my word.
44Ye are of your father the Devil, and what your father desireth ye are ready to do. He was a murderer from the beginning; and he abideth not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh from his own nature; for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45But because I speak the truth, ye believe me not.
