John 8:26-36

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.
