John 8:7-13 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

7. And when they persisted in asking him, straightening up he said to them, “The one of you without sin, let him throw the first stone at her!”

8. And bending down again, he wrote on the ground.

9. Now when they heard it, being convicted by their conscience, they began to depart, one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus was left alone—and the woman who was in their midst.

10. So Jesus, straightening up and seeing no one except the woman, said to her, “Where are those accusers of yours? Does no one condemn you?”

11. And she said, “No one, Lord.” So Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go, and sin no more.”〛

12. Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world! The one who follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

13. So the Pharisees said to him, “You testify concerning yourself! Your testimony is not true.”
