John 8:48-59 - Jesus And Abraham

48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, "Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast the devil?"

49 Jesus answered, "I have not the devil: but I honour my father, and ye have dishonored me. 50 I seek not mine own praise: but there is one that seeketh it and judgeth. 51 "Verily, verily I say unto you, if a man keep my sayings, he shall never see death."

52 Then said the Jews to him, "Now know we that thou hast the devil. Abraham is dead, and also the prophets, and yet thou sayest, 'If a man keep my saying he shall never taste of death.' 53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? And the prophets are dead: Whom makest thou thyself?"

54 Jesus answered, "If I honour myself, mine honour is nothing worth. It is my father that honoureth me, which ye say is your God. 55 And ye have not known him. And if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like unto you; But I know him, and keep his saying. 56 Your father Abraham was glad to see my day, and he saw it and rejoiced."

57 Then said the Jews unto him, "Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?"

58 Jesus said unto them, "Verily, verily I say unto you: Yer Abraham was, I am."

59 Then took they up stones, to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
