John 8:23 in Context — John 8

21 Disse-lhes pois Jesus outra vez: Eu me vou, e me buscareis, e morrereis em vosso pecado; para onde eu vou vós não podeis vir.

22 Diziam, pois, os Judeus: Ele, por acaso, matará a si mesmo? Pois diz: Para onde eu vou vós não podeis vir.

23 E ele lhes dizia: Vós sois de baixo, eu sou de cima; vós sois deste mundo, eu não sou deste mundo.

24 Por isso eu vos disse, que morrereis em vossos pecados; porque se não credes que eu sou, morrereis em vossos pecados.

25 Disseram-lhe pois: Quem és tu? Jesus lhes disse: [Sou] o mesmo que desde o princípio tenho vos dito.
