John 8:19–27

¹⁹They said therefore to him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered,“You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”↗

²⁰Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.↗

²¹Jesus said therefore again to them,“I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you can’t come.”↗

²²The Jews therefore said, “Will he kill himself, because he says,‘Where I am going, you can’t come’?”↗

²³He said to them,“You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.↗

²⁴I said therefore to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”↗

²⁵They said therefore to him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them,“Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.↗

²⁶I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However, he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world.”↗

²⁷They didn’t understand that he spoke to them about the Father.↗
