John 8:44 in Context — John 8
42 Disse-lhes pois Jesus: Se Deus fosse vosso Pai, verdadeiramente me amaríeis; porque eu saí e venho de Deus; pois não vim de mim mesmo, porém ele me enviou.
43 Por que não entendeis meu discurso? Porque não podeis ouvir minha palavra.
44 Vós sois [filhos] de [vosso] pai, o Diabo, e quereis fazer os desejos de vosso pai; ele foi homicida desde o princípio, e não permaneceu na verdade, porque nele não há verdade; quando fala mentira, fala do seu próprio; porque é mentiroso, e pai da [mentira] .
45 Porém a mim, porque [vos] digo a verdade, não credes em mim.
46 Quem de vós me convence de pecado? E se digo a verdade, por que não credes em mim?
