John 8:4-18

⁴they say to him, Teacher, this woman has been taken in the very act, committing adultery.

⁵Now in the law Moses has commanded us to stone such; thou therefore, what sayest thou?

⁶But this they said proving him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus, having stooped down, wrote with his finger on the ground.

⁷But when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up and said to them, Let him that is without sin among you first cast the stone at her.

⁸And again stooping down he wrote on the ground.

⁹But they, having heard that, went out one by one beginning from the elder ones until the last; and Jesus was left alone and the woman standing there.

¹⁰And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee?

¹¹And she said, No one, sir. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

¹²Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

¹³The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true.

¹⁴Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is true, because I know whence I came and whither I go: but ye know not whence I come and whither I go.

¹⁵Ye judge according to the flesh, I judge no one.

¹⁶And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me.

¹⁷And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true:

¹⁸I am one who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me.
