New Testament
8:1 | Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. |
8:2 | Now early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He sat down and taught them. |
8:3 | Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, |
8:4 | they said to Him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. |
8:5 | Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what do You say?" |
8:6 | This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear them. |
8:7 | So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first." |
8:8 | And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. |
8:9 | Then those who heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. |
8:10 | When Jesus had lifted Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, "Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?" |
8:11 | She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more." |
8:12 | Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." |
8:13 | The Pharisees therefore said to Him, "You bear record of Yourself; Your record is not true." |
8:14 | Jesus replied and said to them, "Though I bear record of Myself, yet My record is true, because, I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going." |
8:15 | You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one." |
8:16 | And yet if I judge, My judgment is true; because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent Me." |
8:17 | It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true." |
8:18 | I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me." |
8:19 | Then they said to Him, "Where is Your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also." |
8:20 | These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as He taught in the temple; and no one laid hands on Him, because His hour had not yet come. |
8:21 | Then Jesus said to them again, "I am going my way, and you will seek Me, and will die in your sins. Where I go you cannot come." |
8:22 | So the Jews said, "Shall He kill Himself, because He says, 'Where I go you cannot come'?" |
8:23 | And He said to them, "You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world." |
8:24 | Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; because, if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins." |
8:25 | Then they said to Him, "Who are You?" And Jesus said to them, "Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning. |
8:26 | I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I heard from Him." |
8:27 | They did not understand that He spoke to them of the Father. |
8:28 | Then Jesus said to them, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father has taught Me, I speak these things." |
8:29 | And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, because I always do those things that please Him." |
8:30 | As He spoke these words, many believed on Him. |
8:31 | Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed on Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are My disciples indeed." |
8:32 | And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." |
8:33 | They replied to Him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, 'You will be made free'?" |
8:34 | Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a servant of sin." |
8:35 | And a servant does not abide in the house forever, but the Son abides forever." |
8:36 | Therefore if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed." |
8:37 | "I know that you are Abraham's seed, but you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you." |
8:38 | I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with your father." |
8:39 | They replied and said to Him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham. |
8:40 | But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this." |
8:41 | You do the deeds of your father." Then they said to Him, "We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God." |
8:42 | Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love Me, because, I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me." |
8:43 | Why do you not understand My speech? That is because you are not able to hear My word." |
8:44 | You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and did not abide in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, because he is a liar and the father of it." |
8:45 | And because I tell you the truth, you do not believe Me." |
8:46 | Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me?" |
8:47 | He who is of God hears God's words; therefore you do not hear them, because you are not of God." |
8:48 | Then the Jews replied and said to Him, "Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?" |
8:49 | Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me." |
8:50 | And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges." |
8:51 | Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he will never see death." |
8:52 | Then the Jews said to Him, "Now we know that You have a demon! Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and You say, 'If anyone keeps My word he will never taste death.'" |
8:53 | Are You greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. Who do You make Yourself out to be?" |
8:54 | Jesus answered, "If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your God." |
8:55 | Yet you have not known Him, but I know Him. And if I should say, 'I do not know Him,' I would be a liar like you; but I do know Him and keep His word." |
8:56 | Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad." |
8:57 | Then the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?" |
8:58 | Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM." |
8:59 | Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by. |
King James Bible 2016
Unlike most other modern versions, this Bible's text is based upon the same Hebrew Masoretic Text, and Greek Textus Receptus, of the King James Version of 1611.
In non Textus Receptus versions, the issue of having the best underlying manuscripts, is often overshadowed by the massive amount of omissions in the text. Because the KJV 2016 is not dealing with issues of omission and addition, the focus has been upon definition, and the KJV translators choices have been used as the benchmark.
One issue not often majored upon in the bible version debate is simply the way Greek words are defined. Many times, the NKJV leans upon the definition choices of modern versions as well as defaulting to Vines and Strong's definitions, which are almost always favorable to the Revised Version. In other words, one may have a correct text to translate from, but use erroneous modern version/modern dictionary definitions which change or distort the meaning of the words. Jay Green was accused of having a good TR bible but with "Alexandrian readings".
The KJV 2016 Edition rejects such erroneous modern definitions and restores the distinctness of historical KJV readings. The NKJV also tended to gravitate toward KJV marginal notes, which are in truth, rejected readings, and also toward Geneva Bible definitions, which the KJV had already cleared up.
