John 8:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.

The Jews answered and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?

The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?

And many of them said, He hath a demon, and is mad; why hear ye him?

But I am a worm, and no man; A reproach of men, and despised of the people.

Let the lying lips be dumb, Which speak against the righteous insolently, With pride and contempt.

Our soul is exceedingly filled With the scoffing of those that are at ease, And with the contempt of the proud.

For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against himself, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.

Let us therefore go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come.
