8:33They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?

8:34Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.

8:35And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.

8:36If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

8:37I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.

8:38I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

8:39They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.

8:40But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.

8:41Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.

8:42Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

8:43Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

8:44Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

8:45And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

8:46Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

8:47He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
