John 8:26-36

²⁶Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.

²⁷And they understood not, that he called God his Father.

²⁸Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:

²⁹And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.

³⁰When he spoke these things, many believed in him.

³¹Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.

³²And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

³³They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?

³⁴Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.

³⁵Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.

³⁶If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
