42 Jesus said to them, "If God really were your Father, you would love me, because I came from God and now I am here. I did not come on my own authority, but he sent me.
42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me.
43 Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to listen to my message.
43 Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say.
44 You are the children of your father, the Devil, and you want to follow your father's desires. From the very beginning he was a murderer and has never been on the side of truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he is only doing what is natural to him, because he is a liar and the father of all lies.
44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
45 But I tell the truth, and that is why you do not believe me.
45 Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me!
46 Which one of you can prove that I am guilty of sin? If I tell the truth, then why do you not believe me?
46 Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don’t you believe me?
47 He who comes from God listens to God's words. You, however, are not from God, and that is why you will not listen."
47 Whoever belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”

49 “I am not possessed by a demon,” said Jesus, “but I honor my Father and you dishonor me.
50 I am not seeking honor for myself. But there is one who is seeking it and who judges in my favor.
50 I am not seeking glory for myself; but there is one who seeks it, and he is the judge.
51 I am telling you the truth: whoever obeys my teaching will never die."
51 Very truly I tell you, whoever obeys my word will never see death.”
