John 8: 1 - 11
|
| 1 | but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. |
| 2 | Early in the morning he came again to the temple; all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. |
| 3 | The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst |
| 4 | they said to him, "Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. |
| 5 | Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such. What do you say about her?" |
| 6 | This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. |
| 7 | And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her." |
| 8 | And once more he bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. |
| 9 | But when they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the eldest, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. |
| 10 | Jesus looked up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" |
| 11 | She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you; go, and do not sin again." |
