John 8:38-49

³⁸They answered and sayde vnto him: Abraham is oure father. Iesus sayde vnto them. If ye were Abrahams chyldren ye wolde do the dedes of Abraham.

³⁹But now ye goo about to kyll me a man that have tolde you the truthe which I have herde of god: this dyd not Abraham.

⁴⁰Ye do the dedes of youre father. Then sayde they vnto him: we were not borne of fornicacion. We have one father which is God.

⁴¹Iesus sayde vnto them: yf God were youre father then wolde ye love me. For I proceaded forthe and come from God. Nether came I of my selfe but he sent me.

⁴²Why do ye not knowe my speache? even because ye cannot abyde the hearynge of my wordes.

⁴³Ye are of youre father the devyll and the lustes of youre father ye will folowe.

⁴⁴He was a murtherer from the beginnynge and aboode not in the trueth because ther is no trueth in him. When he speaketh a lye then speaketh he of his awne. For he is a lyar and the father therof.

⁴⁵And because I tell you the trueth therfore ye beleve me not.

⁴⁶Which of you can rebuke me of synne? If I saye the trueth why do not ye beleve me?

⁴⁷He that is of God heareth goddes wordes Ye therfore heare them not because ye are not of God.

⁴⁸Then answered the Iewes and sayde vnto him: Saye we not well that thou arte a Samaritane and hast the devyll?

⁴⁹Iesus answered: I have not the devyll: but I honour my father and ye have dishonoured me.
