3 And the scribes and pharisees brought to Him a woman taken in adultery;
4 and setting her in the midst, they said to Him, "This woman was caught in the very act, committing adultery.
5 Now Moses in the law has commanded us that such women should be stoned, but what sayest Thou?"
6 This they said to tempt Him, that they might have something to accuse Him of. But Jesus stooping down, wrote with his finger upon the ground.
7 And as they continued asking Him, He raised himself up and said unto them, "Let him that is without sin among you, first cast a stone at her."
8 Then He stooped down again and wrote on the ground.
9 But when they heard his answer, being convicted by their own conscience, they went out one by one, beginning at the elder, even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst of the people.
10 Then Jesus rising up, and seeing none but the woman, said unto her, Where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 And she said, None, Lord. Then said Jesus unto her, Neither do I condemn thee, Go thy way and sin no more.
12 Then spake Jesus again to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he, that followeth me, shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 The pharisees therefore said to Him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy testimony is not true.
14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear witness of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I go.
15 Ye judge according to the flesh, but I judge no man as yet:
16 though if I should judge, my judgement is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father that sent me.
17 And it is written in your own law, that the testimony of two persons is valid.
18 Now I am one, who bear witness of myself; and the Father, who sent me, beareth witness of me.
19 Then said they unto Him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also.
20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, when He was teaching in the temple: and no one laid hands on Him, for his hour was not yet come.
