John 8:13-19

New King James Version

Jesus Defends His Self-Witness

¹³ The Pharisees therefore said to Him, ^(A)“You bear witness of Yourself; Your witness is not ^[a]true.”

¹⁴ Jesus answered and said to them, “Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but ^(B)you do not know where I come from and where I am going. ^15 (C)You judge according to the flesh; ^(D)I judge no one. ¹⁶ And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for ^(E)I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me. ^17 (F)It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true. ¹⁸ I am One who bears witness of Myself, and ^(G)the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me.”

¹⁹ Then they said to Him, “Where is Your Father?”

Jesus answered, ^(H)“You know neither Me nor My Father. ^(I)If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also.”
