John 8:26-36

²⁶They understode not that he spake of his father.

²⁷Then sayde Iesus vnto them: when ye have lyft vp an hye the sonne of man then shall ye knowe that I am he and that I do nothinge of my selfe: but as my father hath taught me even so I speake:

²⁸and he that sent me is with me. The father hath not lefte me alone for I do alwayes those thinges that please him.

²⁹As he spake these wordes many beleved on him.

³⁰Then sayde Iesus to those Iewes which beleved on him. If ye continue in my wordes then are ye my very disciples

³¹and shall knowe the trueth: and the trueth shall make you free.

³²They answered him: We be Abrahams seede and were never bonde to eny man: why sayest thou then ye shalbe made fre.

³³Iesus answered them: verely verely I saye vnto you that whosoever committeth synne is the servaunt of synne.

³⁴And the servaunt abydeth not in the housse for ever: But the sonne abydeth ever.

³⁵If the sonne therfore shall make you fre then are ye fre in dede.

³⁶I knowe that ye are Abrahams seed: But ye seke meanes to kyll me because my sayinges have no place in you.
