John 8:44

New Testament Gospel ASV (1901)

Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and standeth 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 thereof.

41Ye do the works of your father. They said unto him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.

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

43Why do ye not understand my speech? [Even] because ye cannot hear my word.

44Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and standeth 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 thereof.

45But because I say the truth, ye believe me not.

46Which of you convicteth me of sin? If I say truth, why do ye not believe me?

47He that is of God heareth the words of God: for this cause ye hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
