Evangelium
The Holy Gospel According to John 8: 51-59
8:51 | Amen, amen, siger jeg til dig, if anyone will have kept my word, he will not see death for eternity.” |
8:52 | Derfor, the Jews said: “Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham is dead, og profeterne; and yet you say, ‘If anyone will have kept my word, he shall not taste death for eternity.’ |
8:53 | Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. So who do you make yourself to be?” |
8:54 | Jesus responded: “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me. And you say about him that he is your God. |
8:55 | And yet you have not known him. But I know him. And if I were to say that I do not know him, then I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and I keep his word. |
8:56 | Abraham, din far, rejoiced that he might see my day; he saw it and was glad.” |
8:57 | And so the Jews said to him, “You have not yet reached fifty years, and you have seen Abraham?” |
8:58 | Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, siger jeg til dig, before Abraham was made, I am.” |
8:59 | Derfor, they took up stones to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and he departed from the temple. |
