John 8:45-55

45 "But because ¹I speak the truth, you do not believe Me.

46 "Which one of you convicts Me of sin? If ²I speak truth, why * do you not believe Me?

47 "³He who is of God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not hear them, because you are not of God."

48 ⁴The Jews answered and said to Him, "Do we not say rightly that You are a ⁵Samaritan and ⁶have a demon?"

49 Jesus answered, "I do not ⁷have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

50 "But ⁸I do not seek My glory; there is One who seeks and judges.

51 "Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone ⁹keeps My word he will never * ¹⁰see death."

52 ¹¹The Jews said to Him, "Now we know that You ¹²have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets also; and You say, 'If anyone ¹³keeps My word, he will never * ¹⁴taste of death.'

53 "Surely You ¹⁵are not greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets died too; whom do You make Yourself out to be?"

54 Jesus answered, "¹⁶If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; ¹⁷it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, 'He is our God ';

55 and ¹⁸you have not come to know Him, ¹⁹but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be ²⁰a liar like you, ²¹but I do know Him and ²²keep His word.
