Jesus

For he that sent me, is with me: the Father hath not left me alone, because I do alwayes those things that please him.

As hee spake these thinges, many beleeued in him.

Then saide Iesus to the Iewes which beleeued in him, If ye continue in my worde, ye are verely my disciples,

They answered him, Wee be Abrahams seede, and were neuer bonde to any man: why sayest thou then, Ye shalbe made free?

Iesus answered them, Verely, verely I say vnto you, that whosoeuer committeth sinne, is the seruant of sinne.

And the seruant abideth not in the house for euer: but the Sonne abideth for euer.

If that Sonne therefore shall make you free, ye shalbe free in deede.

I know that ye are Abrahams seede, but yee seeke to kill mee, because my worde hath no place in you.

I speake that which I haue seene with my Father: and ye doe that which ye haue seene with your father.

They answered, and saide vnto him, Abraham is our father. Iesus said vnto them, If ye were Abrahams children, ye woulde doe the workes of Abraham.

But nowe ye goe about to kill mee, a man that haue told you the trueth, which I haue heard of God: this did not Abraham.

Ye do the workes of your father. Then said they to him, We are not borne of fornication: we haue one Father, which is God.

Therefore Iesus sayde vnto them, If God were your Father, then woulde ye loue mee: for I proceeded foorth, and came from God, neither came I of my selfe, but he sent me.

Why doe ye not vnderstande my talke? because ye cannot heare my worde.

And because I tell you the trueth, yee beleeue me not.

Which of you can rebuke me of sinne? and if I say the trueth, why do ye not beleeue me?

Then answered the Iewes, and said vnto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritane, and hast a deuil?

Iesus answered, I haue not a deuil, but I honour my Father, and ye haue dishonoured me.

And I seeke not mine owne praise: but there is one that seeketh it, and iudgeth.

Verely, verely I say vnto you, If a man keepe my word, he shall neuer see death.

Then said the Iewes to him, Now know we that thou hast a deuill. Abraham is dead, and the Prophets: and thou sayest, If a man keepe my worde, he shall neuer taste of death.

Art thou greater then our father Abraham, which is dead? and the Prophets are dead: whome makest thou thy selfe?

Iesus answered, If I honour my selfe, mine honour is nothing worth: it is my Father that honoureth me, whome ye say, that hee is your God.

Yet ye haue not knowen him: but I knowe him, and if I should say I know him not, I should be a liar like vnto you: but I knowe him, and keepe his worde.

Your father Abraham reioyced to see my day, and he sawe it, and was glad.
