20. These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
21. Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go, and you shall seek me, and you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.
22. The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?
23. And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.
24. Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.
25. They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you.
26. Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.
27. And they understood not, that he called God his Father.
28. Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:
29. And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.
30. When he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31. Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
32. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33. They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?
34. Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
35. Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.
