John 8:53-58

⁵³Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?

⁵⁴Jesus answered, If I honor myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that honoreth me, of whom ye say, that he is your God:

⁵⁵Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like you: but I know him, and keep his saying.

⁵⁶Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it , and was glad.

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

⁵⁸Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am.
