4 E pondo-a no meio, disseram-lhe: Mestre, esta mulher foi tomada no momento em que estava adulterando.
5 E na Lei nos mandou Moisés, que as tais sejam apedrejadas; tu pois que dizes?
6 E isto diziam eles, tentando-o, para que tivessem de que o acusar. Mas inclinando-se Jesus, escrevia com o dedo na terra.

8 E voltando a se inclinar, escrevia na terra.
