44. Ye 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.
45. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46. Which of you convicteth me of sin? And if I speak the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47. He that is of God, heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
48. Then answered the Jews, and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?
49. Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and ye dishonor me.
50. And I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
51. Verily, verily, I say to you, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never see death.
52. Then said the Jews to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never taste death.
53. Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54. Jesus answered, If I honor myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that honoreth me, of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55. Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
56. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
57. Then said the Jews to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
