33. 33VULResponderunt ei: Semen Abrahæ sumus, et nemini servivimus umquam: quomodo tu dicis: Liberi eritis?BSBBSB: “We are Abraham’s descendants,” they answered. “We have never been slaves to anyone. How can You say we will be set free?”
34. 34VULRespondit eis Jesus: Amen, amen dico vobis: quia omnis qui facit peccatum, servus est peccati.BSBBSB: Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.
35. 35VULServus autem non manet in domo in æternum: filius autem manet in æternum.BSBBSB: A slave does not remain in the house forever, but a son remains forever.

39. 39VULResponderunt, et dixerunt ei: Pater noster Abraham est. Dicit eis Jesus: Si filii Abrahæ estis, opera Abrahæ facite.BSBBSB: “Abraham is our father,” they replied. “If you were children of Abraham,” said Jesus, “you would do the works of Abraham.

41. 41VULVos facitis opera patris vestri. Dixerunt itaque ei: Nos ex fornicatione non sumus nati: unum patrem habemus Deum.BSBBSB: You are doing the works of your father.” “We are not illegitimate children,” they declared. “Our only Father is God Himself.”
42. 42VULDixit ergo eis Jesus: Si Deus pater vester esset, diligeretis utique et me; ego enim ex Deo processi, et veni: neque enim a meipso veni, sed ille me misit.BSBBSB: Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on My own, but He sent Me.
43. 43VULQuare loquelam meam non cognoscitis? Quia non potestis audire sermonem meum.BSBBSB: Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you are unable to accept My message.
44. 44VULVos ex patre diabolo estis: et desideria patris vestri vultis facere. Ille homicida erat ab initio, et in veritate non stetit: quia non est veritas in eo: cum loquitur mendacium, ex propriis loquitur, quia mendax est, et pater ejus.BSBBSB: You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, refusing to uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, because he is a liar and the father of lies.
45. 45VULEgo autem si veritatem dico, non creditis mihi.BSBBSB: But because I speak the truth, you do not believe Me!
46. 46VULQuis ex vobis arguet me de peccato? si veritatem dico vobis, quare non creditis mihi?BSBBSB: Which of you can prove Me guilty of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe Me?
47. 47VULQui ex Deo est, verba Dei audit. Propterea vos non auditis, quia ex Deo non estis.BSBBSB: Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”
48. 48VULResponderunt ergo Judæi, et dixerunt ei: Nonne bene dicimus nos quia Samaritanus es tu, et dæmonium habes?BSBBSB: The Jews answered Him, “Are we not right to say that You are a Samaritan and You have a demon?”
49. 49VULRespondit Jesus: Ego dæmonium non habeo: sed honorifico Patrem meum, et vos inhonorastis me.BSBBSB: “I do not have a demon,” Jesus replied, “but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.
50. 50VULEgo autem non quæro gloriam meam: est qui quærat, et judicet.BSBBSB: I do not seek My own glory. There is One who seeks it, and He is the Judge.
51. 51VULAmen, amen dico vobis: si quis sermonem meum servaverit, mortem non videbit in æternum.BSBBSB: Truly, truly, I tell you, if anyone keeps My word, he will never see death.”
52. 52VULDixerunt ergo Judæi: Nunc cognovimus quia dæmonium habes. Abraham mortuus est, et prophetæ; et tu dicis: Si quis sermonem meum servaverit, non gustabit mortem in æternum.BSBBSB: “Now we know that You have a demon!” declared the Jews. “Abraham died, and so did the prophets, yet You say that anyone who keeps Your word will never taste death.
53. 53VULNumquid tu major es patre nostro Abraham, qui mortuus est? et prophetæ mortui sunt. Quem teipsum facis?BSBBSB: Are You greater than our father Abraham? He died, as did the prophets. Who do You claim to be?”
54. 54VULRespondit Jesus: Si ego glorifico meipsum, gloria mea nihil est: est Pater meus, qui glorificat me, quem vos dicitis quia Deus vester est,BSBBSB: Jesus answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory means nothing. The One who glorifies Me is My Father, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’
55. 55VULet non cognovistis eum: ego autem novi eum. Et si dixero quia non scio eum, ero similis vobis, mendax. Sed scio eum, et sermonem ejus servo.BSBBSB: You do not know Him, but I know Him. If I said I did not know Him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know Him, and I keep His word.
56. 56VULAbraham pater vester exsultavit ut videret diem meum: vidit, et gavisus est.BSBBSB: Your father Abraham rejoiced that he would see My day. He saw it and was glad.”
57. 57VULDixerunt ergo Judæi ad eum: Quinquaginta annos nondum habes, et Abraham vidisti?BSBBSB: Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and You have seen Abraham?”
58. 58VULDixit eis Jesus: Amen, amen dico vobis, antequam Abraham fieret, ego sum.BSBBSB: “Truly, truly, I tell you,” Jesus declared, “before Abraham was born, I am!”
59. 59VULTulerunt ergo lapides, ut jacerent in eum: Jesus autem abscondit se, et exivit de templo.BSBBSB: At this, they picked up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus was hidden and went out of the temple area.
