John 8:49-59

⁴⁹Jesus answered, and said, I have not a devil, but I honour my Father, and ye have unhonoured me.

⁵⁰For I seek not my glory; there is he, that seeketh, and deemeth.

⁵¹Truly, truly, I say to you, if any man keep my word, he shall not taste death without end.

⁵²Therefore the Jews said, Now we have known, that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets, and thou sayest, If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death without end.

⁵³Whether thou art greater than our father Abraham, that is dead, and the prophets be dead; whom makest thou thyself?

⁵⁴Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nought; my Father is, that glorifieth me, whom ye say, that he is your God.

⁵⁵And ye have not known him, but I have known him; and if I say that I know him not, I shall be a liar like to you; but I know him, and I keep his word.

⁵⁶Abraham, your father, gladded or full out joyed to see my day; and he saw, and joyed.

⁵⁷Then the Jews said to him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and hast thou seen Abraham?

⁵⁸Therefore Jesus said to them, Truly, truly I say to you, before that Abraham should be or was made, I am.

⁵⁹Therefore they took stones, to cast to him; but Jesus hid him, and went out of the temple.
