Yochanan 8:49-54 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

49. In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, I do not have a shed (demon). But I honor HaAv of me and you dishonor me.

50. But I do not seek my own kavod; there is One seeking and judging.

51. Omein, omein, I say to you, regarding the dvar of me, if anyone is shomer, he will never see mavet.

52. Therefore, those of Yehudah said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Now we have da'as that you have a shed, Avraham died and the Nevi'im; yet you say if anyone keeps the dvar of me he will never taste mavet (death). [Hisgalus 21:8]

53. Surely you are not greater than Avraham Avinu, who died? And the Nevi'im died. Whom do you make yourself to be? [Zech 1:5]

54. In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, If I give myself kavod, the kavod of me is nothing. It is HaAv of me Who is giving me kavod, Whom you say, He is Eloheinu. [YESHAYAH 63:16]
