John 8:7-17

7 And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, ¹"Let him who is without sin among you ²be the first to throw a stone at her."

8 And once more he bent down and wrote on the ground.

9 But when they heard it, they went away one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.

10 Jesus stood up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"

11 She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, ³"Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on ⁴sin no more."]]

I Am the Light of the World

12 ⁵Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, ⁶"I am the light of the world. Whoever ⁷follows me will not ⁸walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

13 So the Pharisees said to him, ⁹"You are bearing witness about yourself; your testimony is not true."

14 Jesus answered, "Even if I do bear witness about myself, ¹⁰my testimony is true, for I know ¹¹where I came from and ¹²where I am going, but ¹³you do not know where I come from or where I am going.

15 ¹⁴You judge according to the flesh; ¹⁵I judge no one.

16 Yet even if I do judge, ¹⁶my judgment is true, for ¹⁷it is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father^[a] who sent me.

17 ¹⁸In your Law it is written that the testimony of two people is true.
