8

1but Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
1ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܐܙܠ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܕܙܝܬܐ ܀
2And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
2ܒܨܦܪܐ ܕܝܢ ܬܘܒ ܐܬܐ ܠܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܟܠܗ ܥܡܐ ܐܬܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܘܬܗ ܘܟܕ ܝܬܒ ܡܠܦ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܀
3And the scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman taken in adultery; and having set her in the midst,
3ܐܝܬܝܘ ܕܝܢ ܤܦܪܐ ܘܦܪܝܫܐ ܠܐܢܬܬܐ ܕܐܬܬܚܕܬ ܒܓܘܪܐ ܘܟܕ ܐܩܝܡܘܗ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ ܀
4they say unto him, Teacher, this woman hath been taken in adultery, in the very act.
4ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܗܕܐ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܬܬܚܕܬ ܓܠܝܐܝܬ ܒܗ ܒܤܘܥܪܢܐ ܕܓܘܪܐ ܀
5Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such: what then sayest thou of her?
5ܘܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܘܫܐ ܦܩܕ ܕܠܕܐܝܟ ܗܠܝܢ ܢܪܓܘܡ ܐܢܬ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܬ ܀
6And this they said, trying him, that they might have [whereof] to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
6ܗܕܐ ܐܡܪܘ ܟܕ ܡܢܤܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܩܛܪܓܘܢܝܗܝ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܠܬܚܬ ܐܬܓܗܢ ܡܟܬܒ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܀
7But when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
7ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܟܬܪܘ ܟܕ ܡܫܐܠܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܬܦܫܛ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܢܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܕܠܐ ܚܛܗ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܢܫܕܐ ܥܠܝܗ ܟܐܦܐ ܀
8And again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
8ܘܬܘܒ ܟܕ ܐܬܓܗܢ ܟܬܒ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܀
9And they, when they heard it, went out one by one, beginning from the eldest, [even] unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman, where she was, in the midst.
9ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܢܦܩܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܚܕ ܚܕ ܟܕ ܫܪܝܘ ܡܢ ܩܫܝܫܐ ܘܐܫܬܒܩܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܠܚܘܕܝܗ ܟܕ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ ܀
10And Jesus lifted up himself, and said unto her, Woman, where are they? did no man condemn thee?
10ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܦܫܛ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܠܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܚܝܒܟܝ ܀
11And she said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said, Neither do I condemn thee: go thy way; from henceforth sin no more.
11ܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܬ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܡܪ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܦܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܚܝܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܝ ܙܠܝ ܘܡܢ ܗܫܐ ܬܘܒ ܠܐ ܬܚܛܝܢ ܀
12Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.
12ܬܘܒ ܕܝܢ ܡܠܠ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܢܘܗܪܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܡܢ ܕܒܬܪܝ ܐܬܐ ܠܐ ܢܗܠܟ ܒܚܫܘܟܐ ܐܠܐ ܢܫܟܚ ܠܗ ܢܘܗܪܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܀
13The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true.
13ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܐܢܬ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܟ ܡܤܗܕ ܐܢܬ ܤܗܕܘܬܟ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܫܪܝܪܐ ܀
14Jesus answered and said unto them, Even if I bear witness of myself, my witness is true; for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye know not whence I come, or whither I go.
14ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܦܢ ܐܢܐ ܡܤܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܝ ܫܪܝܪܐ ܗܝ ܤܗܕܘܬܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܕܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܡܢ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܐܬܝܬ ܘܠܐܝܟܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܐܬܝܬ ܘܠܐ ܠܐܝܟܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܀
15Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
15ܐܢܬܘܢ ܦܓܪܢܐܝܬ ܕܝܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܠܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܕܐܢ ܐܢܐ ܀
16Yea and if I judge, my judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
16ܘܐܢ ܕܐܢ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܢܝ ܫܪܝܪ ܗܘ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܒܠܚܘܕܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܒܝ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܀
17Yea and in your law it is written, that the witness of two men is true.
17ܘܒܢܡܘܤܟܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܟܬܝܒ ܕܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܕܬܪܝܢ ܓܒܪܝܢ ܫܪܝܪܐ ܗܝ ܀
18I am he that beareth witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
18ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܤܗܕ ܐܢܐ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܝ ܘܐܒܝ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܤܗܕ ܥܠܝ ܀
19They said therefore unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me, nor my Father: if ye knew me, ye would know my Father also.
19ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܝܟܘ ܐܒܘܟ ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܠܝ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܠܐܒܝ ܐܠܘ ܠܝ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܐܦ ܠܐܒܝ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܀
20These words spake he in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man took him; because his hour was not yet come.
20ܗܠܝܢ ܡܠܐ ܡܠܠ ܒܝܬ ܓܙܐ ܟܕ ܡܠܦ ܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܐܚܕܗ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܐܬܬ ܗܘܬ ܫܥܬܗ ܀
21He said therefore again unto them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: whither I go, ye cannot come.
21ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܬܘܒ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܘܬܒܥܘܢܢܝ ܘܬܡܘܬܘܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܟܘܢ ܘܐܝܟܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܐܬܐ ܀
22The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come?
22ܐܡܪܝܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܠܡܐ ܟܝ ܢܦܫܗ ܩܛܠ ܕܐܡܪ ܕܐܝܟܐ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܐܬܐ ܀
23And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
23ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܕܠܬܚܬ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܐܢܐ ܡܢ ܕܠܥܠ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܗܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܢ ܗܢܐ ܥܠܡܐ ܀
24I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
24ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܡܘܬܘܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܬܡܘܬܘܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܟܘܢ ܀
25They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? Jesus said unto them, Even that which I have also spoken unto you from the beginning.
25ܐܡܪܝܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܐܢܬ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܦܢ ܕܫܪܝܬ ܕܐܡܠܠ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܀
26I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you: howbeit he that sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these speak I unto the world.
26ܤܓܝ ܐܝܬ ܠܝ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܘܠܡܕܢ ܐܠܐ ܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܫܪܝܪ ܗܘ ܘܐܢܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܫܡܥܬ ܡܢܗ ܗܠܝܢ ܗܘ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܀
27They perceived not that he spake to them of the Father.
27ܘܠܐ ܝܕܥܘ ܕܥܠ ܐܒܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܀
28Jesus therefore said, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I speak these things.
28ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܬܘܒ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܬܝ ܕܬܪܝܡܘܢܗ ܠܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܬܕܥܘܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܘܡܕܡ ܡܢ ܨܒܘܬ ܢܦܫܝ ܠܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܠܦܢܝ ܐܒܝ ܗܟܘܬ ܗܘ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܀
29And he that sent me is with me; he hath not left me alone; for I do always the things that are pleasing to him.
29ܘܡܢ ܕܫܕܪܢܝ ܥܡܝ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܘܠܐ ܫܒܩܢܝ ܒܠܚܘܕܝ ܐܒܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܢܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܫܦܪ ܠܗ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܀
30As he spake these things, many believed on him.
30ܟܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܡܡܠܠ ܗܘܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܗ ܀
31Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed him, If ye abide in my word, [then] are ye truly my disciples;
31ܘܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܗ ܐܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܟܬܪܘܢ ܒܡܠܬܝ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܬܠܡܝܕܝ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀
32and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
32ܘܬܕܥܘܢ ܫܪܪܐ ܘܗܘ ܫܪܪܐ ܢܚܪܪܟܘܢ ܀
33They answered unto him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never yet been in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
33ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܙܪܥܗ ܚܢܢ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܘܡܢ ܡܬܘܡ ܥܒܕܘܬܐ ܠܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܦܠܝܚܐ ܠܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܬ ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܒܢܝ ܚܐܪܐ ܀
34Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin.
34ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܟܠܡܢ ܕܥܒܕ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܥܒܕܗ ܗܘ ܕܚܛܝܬܐ ܀
35And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever: the son abideth for ever.
35ܘܥܒܕܐ ܠܐ ܡܩܘܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܒܒܝܬܐ ܒܪܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܥܠܡ ܡܩܘܐ ܀
36If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
36ܐܢ ܗܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܒܪܐ ܢܚܪܪܟܘܢ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܒܢܝ ܚܐܪܐ ܀
37I know that ye are Abraham's seed: yet ye seek to kill me, because my word hath not free course in you.
37ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܕܙܪܥܗ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܐܠܐ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܩܛܠܢܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܡܠܬܝ ܠܐ ܤܦܩܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀
38I speak the things which I have seen with [my] Father: and ye also do the things which ye heard from [your] father.
38ܐܢܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܝ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܚܙܝܬܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀
39They answered and said unto him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
39ܥܢܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܒܘܢ ܕܝܠܢ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܗܘ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܠܘ ܒܢܘܗܝ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܀
40But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I heard from God: this did not Abraham.
40ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܗܐ ܒܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܩܛܠܢܝ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܕܫܪܝܪܬܐ ܡܠܠܬ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܫܡܥܬ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܕܐ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܠܐ ܥܒܕ ܀
41Ye do the works of your father. They said unto him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.
41ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܚܢܢ ܡܢ ܙܢܝܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܚܕ ܐܒܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܀
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.
42ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܠܘ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܡܚܒܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܠܝ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܢܦܩܬ ܘܐܬܝܬ ܘܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܨܒܘܬ ܢܦܫܝ ܐܬܝܬ ܐܠܐ ܗܘ ܫܕܪܢܝ ܀
43Why do ye not understand my speech? [Even] because ye cannot hear my word.
43ܡܛܠ ܡܢܐ ܡܠܬܝ ܠܐ ܡܫܬܘܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܕܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܫܡܥܝܢ ܡܠܬܝ ܀
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.
44ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܒܐ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܐܝܬܝܟܘܢ ܘܪܓܬܗ ܕܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܨܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܥܒܕ ܗܘ ܕܡܢ ܒܪܫܝܬ ܩܛܠ ܐܢܫܐ ܗܘ ܘܒܫܪܪܐ ܠܐ ܩܐܡ ܡܛܠ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܠܝܬ ܒܗ ܐܡܬܝ ܕܡܡܠܠ ܟܕܒܘܬܐ ܡܢ ܕܝܠܗ ܗܘ ܡܡܠܠ ܡܛܠ ܕܕܓܠܐ ܗܘ ܐܦ ܐܒܘܗ ܀
45But because I say the truth, ye believe me not.
45ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܝ ܀
46Which of you convicteth me of sin? If I say truth, why do ye not believe me?
46ܡܢܘ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܡܟܤ ܠܝ ܥܠ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܘܐܢ ܫܪܪܐ ܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܢܐ ܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܝ ܀
47He that is of God heareth the words of God: for this cause ye hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
47ܡܢ ܕܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܠܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܫܡܥ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܫܡܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܀
48The Jews answered and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?
48ܥܢܘ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܫܦܝܪ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܚܢܢ ܕܫܡܪܝܐ ܐܢܬ ܘܕܝܘܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟ ܀
49Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and ye dishonor me.
49ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܝ ܕܝܘܐ ܠܐ ܐܝܬ ܐܠܐ ܠܐܒܝ ܡܝܩܪ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܨܥܪܝܢ ܠܝ ܀
50But I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
50ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܫܘܒܚܝ ܐܝܬ ܗܘ ܕܒܥܐ ܘܕܐܢ ܀
51Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my word, he shall never see death.
51ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܕܡܠܬܝ ܢܛܪ ܡܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܢܚܙܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܀
52The Jews said unto him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death.
52ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܗܫܐ ܝܕܥܢ ܕܕܝܘܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܡܝܬ ܘܢܒܝܐ ܘܐܢܬ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܬ ܕܡܢ ܕܡܠܬܝ ܢܛܪ ܡܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܢܛܥܡ ܠܥܠܡ ܀
53Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died: whom makest thou thyself?
53ܠܡܐ ܐܢܬ ܪܒ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܐܒܘܢ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܕܡܝܬ ܘܡܢ ܢܒܝܐ ܕܡܝܬܘ ܡܢܘ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܢܦܫܟ ܀
54Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God;
54ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܢ ܐܢܐ ܡܫܒܚ ܐܢܐ ܢܦܫܝ ܫܘܒܚܝ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܕܡ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܐܒܝ ܕܡܫܒܚ ܠܝ ܗܘ ܕܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܠܗܢ ܗܘ ܀
55and ye have not known him: but I know him; and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be like unto you, a liar: but I know him, and keep his word.
55ܘܠܐ ܝܕܥܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܘܐܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܗܘܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܝ ܟܕܒܐ ܐܟܘܬܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܘܡܠܬܗ ܢܛܪ ܐܢܐ ܀
56Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day; and he saw it, and was glad.
56ܐܒܪܗܡ ܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܡܤܘܚ ܗܘܐ ܕܢܚܙܐ ܝܘܡܝ ܘܚܙܐ ܘܚܕܝ ܀
57The Jews therefore said unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
57ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܒܪ ܚܡܫܝܢ ܫܢܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܘܠܐܒܪܗܡ ܚܙܝܬ ܀
58Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was born, I am.
58ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܥܕܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܐܢܐ ܐܝܬܝ ܀
59They took up stones therefore to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
59ܘܫܩܠܘ ܟܐܦܐ ܕܢܪܓܡܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܝܫܘܥ ܐܬܛܫܝ ܘܢܦܩ ܡܢ ܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܥܒܪ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܙܠ ܀
