John 8

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	GREEK BIBLE
1 while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.	1 Ο δε Ιησους υπηγεν εις το ορος των Ελαιων.
2 But early in the morning he arrived again in the temple area, and all the people started coming to him, and he sat down and taught them.	2 Και την αυγην ηλθε παλιν εις το ιερον, και πας ο λαος ηρχετο προς αυτον? και καθησας εδιδασκεν αυτους.
3 Then the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery and made her stand in the middle.	3 Φερουσι δε προς αυτον οι γραμματεις και οι Φαρισαιοι γυναικα συλληφθεισαν επι μοιχεια, και στησαντες αυτην εν τω μεσω,
4 They said to him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.	4 λεγουσι προς αυτον? Διδασκαλε, αυτη η γυνη συνεληφθη επ' αυτοφωρω μοιχευομενη.
5 Now in the law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?"	5 Εν δε τω νομω ο Μωυσης προσεταξεν ημας να λιθοβολωνται αι τοιαυται? συ λοιπον τι λεγεις;
6 They said this to test him, so that they could have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with his finger.	6 Ελεγον δε τουτο δοκιμαζοντες αυτον, δια να εχωσι ινα κατηγορωσιν αυτον. Ο δε Ιησους κυψας κατω, εγραφε δια του δακτυλου εις την γην.
7 But when they continued asking him, he straightened up and said to them, "Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her."	7 Και επειδη επεμενον ερωτωντες αυτον, ανακυψας ειπε προς αυτους? Οστις απο σας ειναι αναμαρτητος, πρωτος ας ριψη τον λιθον επ' αυτην.
8 Again he bent down and wrote on the ground.	8 Και παλιν κυψας κατω εγραφεν εις την γην.
9 And in response, they went away one by one, beginning with the elders. So he was left alone with the woman before him.	9 Εκεινοι δε ακουσαντες, εξηρχοντο εις εκαστος, αρχισαντες απο των πρεσβυτερων εως των εσχατων? και εμεινε μονος ο Ιησους και η γυνη ισταμενη εν τω μεσω.
10 Then Jesus straightened up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"	10 Ανακυψας δε ο Ιησους, ειπε προς αυτην? Γυναι, που ειναι εκεινοι οι κατηγοροι σου; δεν σε κατεδικασεν ουδεις;
11 She replied, "No one, sir." Then Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go, (and) from now on do not sin any more."	11 Και εκεινη ειπεν? Ουδεις, Κυριε. Και ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτην? Ουδε εγω σε καταδικαζω? υπαγε, και εις το εξης μη αμαρτανε.
12 Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."	12 Παλιν λοιπον ο Ιησους ελαλησε προς αυτους λεγων? Εγω ειμαι το φως του κοσμου? οστις ακολουθει εμε δεν θελει περιπατησει εις το σκοτος, αλλα θελει εχει το φως της ζωης.
13 So the Pharisees said to him, "You testify on your own behalf, so your testimony cannot be verified."	13 Ειπον λοιπον προς αυτον οι Φαρισαιοι? Συ περι σεαυτου μαρτυρεις? η μαρτυρια σου δεν ειναι αληθης.
14 Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I do testify on my own behalf, my testimony can be verified, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know where I come from or where I am going.	14 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτους? Και αν εγω μαρτυρω περι εμαυτου, η μαρτυρια μου ειναι αληθης, διοτι εξευρω ποθεν ηλθον και που υπαγω? σεις ομως δεν εξευρετε ποθεν ερχομαι και που υπαγω.
15 You judge by appearances, but I do not judge anyone.	15 Σεις κατα την σαρκα κρινετε? εγω δεν κρινω ουδενα.
16 And even if I should judge, my judgment is valid, because I am not alone, but it is I and the Father who sent me.	16 Αλλα και εαν εγω κρινω, η κρισις η εμη ειναι αληθης, διοτι μονος δεν ειμαι, αλλ' εγω και ο Πατηρ ο πεμψας με.
17 Even in your law it is written that the testimony of two men can be verified.	17 Και εν τω νομω δε υμων ειναι γεγραμμενον οτι δυο ανθρωπων η μαρτυρια ειναι αληθινη.
18 I testify on my behalf and so does the Father who sent me."	18 Εγω ειμαι ο μαρτυρων περι εμαυτου, και ο πεμψας με Πατηρ μαρτυρει περι εμου.
19 So they said to him, "Where is your father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also."	19 Ελεγον λοιπον προς αυτον? Που ειναι ο Πατηρ σου; Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Ουτε εμε εξευρετε ουτε τον Πατερα μου? εαν ηξευρετε εμε, ηθελετε εξευρει και τον Πατερα μου.
20 He spoke these words while teaching in the treasury in the temple area. But no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.	20 Τουτους τους λογους ελαλησεν ο Ιησους εν τω θησαυροφυλακιω, διδασκων εν τω ιερω, και ουδεις επιασεν αυτον, διοτι δεν ειχεν ελθει ετι η ωρα αυτου.
21 He said to them again, "I am going away and you will look for me, but you will die in your sin. Where I am going you cannot come."	21 Ειπε λοιπον παλιν προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Εγω υπαγω και θελετε με ζητησει, και θελετε αποθανει εν τη αμαρτια υμων? οπου εγω υπαγω, σεις δεν δυνασθε να ελθητε.
22 So the Jews said, "He is not going to kill himself, is he, because he said, 'Where I am going you cannot come'?"	22 Ελεγον λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι? Μηπως θελει θανατωσει εαυτον, και δια τουτο λεγει, Οπου εγω υπαγω, σεις δεν δυνασθε να ελθητε;
23 He said to them, "You belong to what is below, I belong to what is above. You belong to this world, but I do not belong to this world.	23 Και ειπε προς αυτους? Σεις εισθε εκ των κατω, εγω ειμαι εκ των ανω? σεις εισθε εκ του κοσμου τουτου, εγω δεν ειμαι εκ του κοσμου τουτου.
24 That is why I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins."	24 Σας ειπον λοιπον οτι θελετε αποθανει εν ταις αμαρτιαις υμων? διοτι εαν δεν πιστευσητε οτι εγω ειμαι, θελετε αποθανει εν ταις αμαρτιαις υμων.
25 So they said to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, "What I told you from the beginning.	25 Ελεγον λοιπον προς αυτον? Συ τις εισαι; και ειπε προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Ο, τι σας λεγω απ' αρχης.
26 I have much to say about you in condemnation. But the one who sent me is true, and what I heard from him I tell the world."	26 Πολλα εχω να λεγω και να κρινω περι υμων? αλλ' ο πεμψας με ειναι αληθης, και εγω οσα ηκουσα παρ' αυτου, ταυτα λεγω εις τον κοσμον.
27 They did not realize that he was speaking to them of the Father.	27 δεν ενοησαν οτι ελεγε προς αυτους περι του Πατρος.
28 So Jesus said (to them), "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will realize that I AM, and that I do nothing on my own, but I say only what the Father taught me.	28 Ειπε λοιπον προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Οταν υψωσητε τον Υιον του ανθρωπου, τοτε θελετε γνωρισει οτι εγω ειμαι, και απ' εμαυτου δεν καμνω ουδεν, αλλα καθως με εδιδαξεν ο Πατηρ μου, ταυτα λαλω.
29 The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what is pleasing to him."	29 Και ο πεμψας με ειναι μετ' εμου? δεν με αφηκεν ο Πατηρ μονον, διοτι εγω καμνω παντοτε τα αρεστα εις αυτον.
30 Because he spoke this way, many came to believe in him.	30 Ενω ελαλει ταυτα, πολλοι επιστευσαν εις αυτον.
31 Jesus then said to those Jews who believed in him, "If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples,	31 Ελεγε λοιπον ο Ιησους προς τους Ιουδαιους τους πιστευσαντας εις αυτον? Εαν σεις μεινητε εν τω λογω τω εμω, εισθε αληθως μαθηται μου,
32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."	32 και θελετε γνωρισει την αληθειαν, και η αληθεια θελει σας ελευθερωσει.
33 They answered him, "We are descendants of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, 'You will become free'?"	33 Απεκριθησαν προς αυτον? Σπερμα του Αβρααμ ειμεθα, και δεν εγειναμεν δουλοι εις ουδενα πωποτε? πως συ λεγεις οτι θελετε γεινει ελευθεροι;
34 Jesus answered them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.	34 Απεκριθη προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω οτι πας οστις πραττει την αμαρτιαν δουλος ειναι της αμαρτιας.
35 A slave does not remain in a household forever, but a son always remains.	35 Ο δε δουλος δεν μενει παντοτε εν τη οικια? ο υιος μενει παντοτε.
36 So if a son frees you, then you will truly be free.	36 Εαν λοιπον ο Υιος σας ελευθερωση, οντως ελευθεροι θελετε εισθαι.
37 I know that you are descendants of Abraham. But you are trying to kill me, because my word has no room among you.	37 Εξευρω οτι εισθε σπερμα του Αβρααμ? αλλα ζητειτε να με θανατωσητε, διοτι ο λογος ο εμος δεν χωρει εις εσας.
38 I tell you what I have seen in the Father's presence; then do what you have heard from the Father."	38 Εγω λαλω ο, τι ειδον πλησιον του Πατρος μου? και σεις ομοιως καμνετε ο, τι ειδετε πλησιον του πατρος σας.
39 They answered and said to him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would be doing the works of Abraham.	39 Απεκριθησαν και ειπον προς αυτον? Ο πατηρ ημων ειναι ο Αβρααμ. Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Εαν ησθε τεκνα του Αβρααμ, τα εργα του Αβρααμ ηθελετε καμνει.
40 But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God; Abraham did not do this.	40 Τωρα δε ζητειτε να με θανατωσητε, ανθρωπον οστις σας ελαλησα την αληθειαν, την οποιαν ηκουσα παρα του Θεου? τουτο ο Αβρααμ δεν εκαμε.
41 You are doing the works of your father!" (So) they said to him, "We are not illegitimate. We have one Father, God."	41 Σεις καμνετε τα εργα του πατρος σας. Ειπον λοιπον προς αυτον? ημεις δεν εγεννηθημεν εκ πορνειας? ενα Πατερα εχομεν, τον Θεον.
42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and am here; I did not come on my own, but he sent me.	42 Ειπε λοιπον προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Εαν ο Θεος ητο Πατηρ σας, ηθελετε αγαπα εμε? διοτι εγω εκ του Θεου εξηλθον και ερχομαι? επειδη δεν ηλθον απ' εμαυτου, αλλ' εκεινος με απεστειλε.
43 Why do you not understand what I am saying? Because you cannot bear to hear my word.	43 Δια τι δεν γνωριζετε την λαλιαν μου; διοτι δεν δυνασθε να ακουητε τον λογον μου.
44 You belong to your father the devil and you willingly carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks in character, because he is a liar and the father of lies.	44 Σεις εισθε εκ πατρος του διαβολου και τας επιθυμιας του πατρος σας θελετε να πραττητε. Εκεινος ητο απ' αρχης ανθρωποκτονος και δεν μενει εν τη αληθεια, διοτι αληθεια δεν υπαρχει εν αυτω? οταν λαλη το ψευδος, εκ των ιδιων λαλει, διοτι ειναι ψευστης και ο πατηρ αυτου του ψευδους.
45 But because I speak the truth, you do not believe me.	45 Εγω δε διοτι λεγω την αληθειαν, δεν με πιστευετε.
46 Can any of you charge me with sin? If I am telling the truth, why do you not believe me?	46 Τις απο σας με ελεγχει περι αμαρτιας; εαν δε αληθειαν λεγω, δια τι σεις δεν με πιστευετε;
47 Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not listen, because you do not belong to God."	47 Οστις ειναι εκ του Θεου, τους λογους του Θεου ακουει? δια τουτο σεις δεν ακουετε, διοτι εκ του Θεου δεν εισθε.
48 The Jews answered and said to him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and are possessed?"	48 Απεκριθησαν λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι και ειπον προς αυτον? Δεν λεγομεν ημεις καλως οτι Σαμαρειτης εισαι συ και δαιμονιον εχεις;
49 Jesus answered, "I am not possessed; I honor my Father, but you dishonor me.	49 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Εγω δαιμονιον δεν εχω, αλλα τιμω τον Πατερα μου, και σεις με ατιμαζετε.
50 I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks it and he is the one who judges.	50 Και εγω δεν ζητω την δοξαν μου? υπαρχει ο ζητων και κρινων.
51 Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever keeps my word will never see death."	51 Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω? Εαν τις φυλαξη τον λογον μου, θανατον δεν θελει ιδει εις τον αιωνα.
52 (So) the Jews said to him, "Now we are sure that you are possessed. Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet you say, 'Whoever keeps my word will never taste death.'	52 Ειπον λοιπον προς αυτον οι Ιουδαιοι? Τωρα κατελαβομεν οτι δαιμονιον εχεις. Ο Αβρααμ απεθανε και οι προφηται, και συ λεγεις? Εαν τις φυλαξη τον λογον μου, δεν θελει γευθη θανατον εις τον αιωνα.
53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? Or the prophets, who died? Who do you make yourself out to be?"	53 Μηπως συ εισαι μεγαλητερος του πατρος ημων Αβρααμ, οστις απεθανε; και οι προφηται απεθανον? συ τινα καμνεις σεαυτον;
54 Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is worth nothing; but it is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, 'He is our God.'	54 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Εαν εγω δοξαζω εμαυτον, η δοξα μου ειναι ουδεν? ο Πατηρ μου ειναι οστις με δοξαζει, τον οποιον σεις λεγετε οτι ειναι Θεος σας.
55 You do not know him, but I know him. And if I should say that I do not know him, I would be like you a liar. But I do know him and I keep his word.	55 Και δεν εγνωρισατε αυτον εγω ομως γνωριζω αυτον? και εαν ειπω οτι δεν γνωριζω αυτον, θελω εισθαι ομοιος σας ψευστης? αλλα γνωριζω αυτον και τον λογον αυτου φυλαττω.
56 Abraham your father rejoiced to see my day; he saw it and was glad.	56 Ο Αβρααμ ο πατηρ σας ειχεν αγαλλιασιν να ιδη την ημεραν την εμην και ειδε και εχαρη.
57 So the Jews said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old and you have seen Abraham?"	57 Ειπον λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι προς αυτον? Πεντηκοντα ετη δεν εχεις ετι, και ειδες τον Αβρααμ;
58 Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I AM."	58 Ειπε προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω? Πριν γεινη ο Αβρααμ, εγω ειμαι.
59 So they picked up stones to throw at him; but Jesus hid and went out of the temple area.	59 Εσηκωσαν λοιπον λιθους δια να ριψωσι κατ' αυτου? πλην ο Ιησους εκρυβη και εξηλθεν εκ του ιερου περασας δια μεσον αυτων, και ουτως ανεχωρησε.
