John 8:3-9

³Presently, however, the Teachers of the Law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placed her in the middle of the Court,

⁴and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was found in the act of adultery.

⁵Now Moses, in the Law, commanded us to stone such women to death; what do you say?”

⁶They said this to test him, in order to have a charge to bring against him. But Jesus stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger.

⁷However, as they continued asking him, he raised himself, and said, “Let the person amongst you who has never done wrong throw the first stone at her.”

⁸And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

⁹When they heard that, they went out one by one, beginning with the eldest; and Jesus was left alone with the woman in the middle of the Court.
