John 8:13-19

International Standard Version

¹³ The Pharisees told him, “You’re testifying about yourself. Your testimony isn’t valid.”^[a]

¹⁴ Jesus answered them, “Even though I’m testifying about myself, my testimony is valid^[b] because I know where I’ve come from and where I’m going. But you don’t know where I come from or where I’m going. ¹⁵ You’re judging by human standards,^[c] but I’m not judging anyone. ¹⁶ Yet even if I should judge, my judgment would be valid,^[d] because it is not I alone who judges, but I and the one who sent me. ¹⁷ In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two people is valid.^{[e] 18} I’m testifying about myself, and the Father who sent me is testifying about me.”

¹⁹ Then they asked him, “Where is this Father of yours?”

Jesus replied, “You don’t know me or my Father. If you had known me, you would’ve known my Father, too.”
