John 8:15-25

15 "¹You judge according to the flesh; ²I am not judging anyone.

16 "But even ³if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone in it, but I and the Father who sent Me.

17 "Even in ⁴your law it has been written that the testimony of ⁵two men is true.

18 "I am He who testifies about Myself, and ⁶the Father who sent Me testifies about Me."

19 So they were saying to Him, "Where is Your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither Me nor My Father; ⁷if you knew Me, you would know My Father also."

20 These words He spoke in ⁸the treasury, as ⁹He taught in the temple; and no one seized Him, because ¹⁰His hour had not yet come.

21 Then He said again to them, "I go away, and ¹¹you will seek Me, and ¹²will die in your sin; where I am going, you cannot * come."

22 So ¹³the Jews were saying, "Surely He will not kill Himself, will He, since He says, '¹⁴Where I am going, you cannot * come '?"

23 And He was saying to them, "¹⁵You are from below, I am from above; ¹⁶you are of this world, ¹⁷I am not of this world.

24 "Therefore I said to you that you ¹⁸will die in your sins; for unless * you believe that ¹⁹I am He, ²⁰you will die in your sins."

25 So they were saying to Him, "Who are You?" Jesus said to them, "What * have I been saying to you from the beginning?
