John 8:7-19 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

7. But as they kept on questioning Him, He straightened up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.”

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

9. And when they heard it, being reproved by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning from the older ones until the last. And יהושע was left alone, and the woman standing in the middle.

10. And יהושע, straightening up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Did no one condemn you?”

11. And she said, “No one, Master.” And יהושע said to her, “Neither do I condemn you. Go and sin no more.”

12. Therefore יהושע spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall by no means walk in darkness, but possess the light of life.”

13. The Pharisees, therefore, said to Him, “You bear witness about Yourself, Your witness is not true.”

14. יהושע answered and said to them, “Even if I witness concerning Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know from where I come, or where I go.

15. “You judge according to the flesh, I judge no one.

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

17. “And in your Torah also, it has been written that the witness of two men is true.

18. “I am One who witnesses concerning Myself, and the Father who sent Me witnesses concerning Me.”

19. Therefore they said to Him, “Where is Your Father?” יהושע answered, “You know neither Me nor My Father. If you knew Me, you would have known My Father also.”
