John 8:7-25

⁷And whyll they continued axynge him he lyfte him selfe vp and sayde vnto them: let him that is amonge you with out synne cast the fyrst stone at her.

⁸And agayne he stouped doune and wrote on the grounde.

⁹And assone as they hearde that they went out one by one the eldest fyrst. And Iesus was lefte a lone and the woman stondynge in the myddes.

¹⁰When Iesus had lyfte vp him selfe agayne and sawe no man but the woman he sayde vnto hyr. Woman where are those thyne accusars? Hath no man condempned the?

¹¹She sayde: No man Lorde. And Iesus sayde: Nether do I condempne the. Goo and synne no moare.

¹²Then spake Iesus agayne vnto them sayinge: I am the light of the worlde. He that foloweth me shall not walke in darcknes: but shall have the light of lyfe.

¹³The pharises sayde vnto him: thou bearest recorde of thy sylfe thy recorde is not true.

¹⁴Iesus answered and sayde vnto them: Though I beare recorde of my selfe yet my recorde is true: for I knowe whence I came and whyther I goo. But ye cannot tell whence I come and whyther I goo.

¹⁵Ye iudge after the flesshe. I iudge no man though I iudge yet is my iudgmet true. For I am not alone: but I and the father that sent me.

¹⁶It is also written in youre lawe that the testimony of two men is true.

¹⁷I am one that beare witnes of my selfe and the father that sent me beareth witnes of me.

¹⁸Then sayde they vnto him: where is thy father? Iesus answered: ye nether knowe me nor yet my father. Yf ye had knowen me ye shuld have knowen my father also.

¹⁹These wordes spake Iesus in the tresury as he taught in the temple and no man layde hondes on him for his tyme was not yet come.

²⁰Then sayde Iesus agayne vnto them. I goo my waye and ye shall seke me and shall dye in youre synnes. Whyther I goo thyther can ye not come.

²¹Then sayde the Iewes: will he kyll him selfe because he sayth: whyther I goo thyther can ye not come?

²²And he sayde vnto the: ye are from beneth I am from above. Ye are of this worlde I am not of this worlde.

²³I sayde therfore vnto you that ye shall dye in youre synnes. For except ye beleve that I am he ye shall dye in youre synnes.

²⁴Then sayde they vnto him who arte thou? And Iesus sayde vnto them: even the very same thinge that I saye vnto you.

²⁵I have many thinges to saye and to iudge of you. But he that sent me is true. And I speake in the worlde those thinges which I have hearde of him.
