| 8 1 | (7:53) AND THEY WENT each to his home, (8:1) and Jesus to the Mount of Olives. | Jesus the Light of the World Jn.8.1-20 (Jerusalem) | Ἰησοῦς δὲ ἐπορεύθη εἰς τὸ Ὄρος τῶν Ἐλαιῶν. |
| 2 | At daybreak he appeared again in the temple, and all the people gathered round him. He had taken his seat and was engaged in teaching them | Ὄρθρου δὲ πάλιν παρεγένετο εἰς τὸ ἱερόν, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἠρχετο πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ καθίσας ἐδίδασκεν αὐτούς. | |
| 3 | when the doctors of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught committing adultery. | ἀγουσιν δὲ οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι γυναῖκα ἐπὶ μοιχείᾳ κατειλημμένην, καὶ στήσαντες αὐτὴν ἐν μέσῳ | |
| 4 | Making her stand out in the middle they said to him, 'Master, this woman was caught in the very act of adultery. | λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, Διδάσκαλε, αὑτη ἡ γυνὴ κατείληπται ἐπ' αὐτοφώρῳ μοιχευομένη· | |
| 5 | In the Law Moses has laid down that such women are to be stoned. What do you say about it?' | ἐν δὲ τῷ νόμῳ ἡμῖν Μωϋσῆς ἐνετείλατο τὰς τοιαύτας λιθάζειν· σὺ οὖν τί λέγεις; | |
| 6 | They put the question as a test, hoping to frame a charge against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. | τοῦτο δὲ ἐλεγον πειράζοντες αὐτόν, ἵνα ἐχωσιν κατηγορεῖν αὐτοῦ. ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς κάτω κύψας τῷ δακτύλῳ κατέγραφεν εἰς τὴν γῆν. | |
| 7 | When they continued to press their question he sat up straight and said, 'That one of you who is faultless shall throw the first stone.' | ὡς δὲ ἐπέμενον ἐρωτῶντες αὐτόν, ἀνέκυψεν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ὁ ἀναμάρτητος ὑμῶν πρῶτος ἐπ' αὐτὴν βαλέτω λίθον· | |
| 8 | Then once again he bent down and wrote on the ground. | καὶ πάλιν κατακύψας ἐγραφεν εἰς τὴν γῆν. | |

| 10 | Jesus again sat up and Some witnesses insert: seeing no one but the woman. said to the woman, 'Where are they? Has no one condemned you?' | ἀνακύψας δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῇ, Γύναι, ποῦ εἰσιν; οὐδείς σε κατέκρινεν; | |
| 11 | 'No one, sir', she said. Jesus replied, 'No more do I. You may go; do not sin again.' This passage, which in the most widely received editions of the New Testament is printed in the text of John, 7.53-8.1l, has no fixed place in our ancient manuscripts. Some of them do not contain it at all. Some place it after Luke 21.38, others after John 7.36, or 7.52, or 21.24. | ἡ δὲ εἶπεν, Οὐδείς, κύριε. εἶπεν δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Οὐδὲ ἐγώ σε κατακρίνω· πορεύου, καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν μηκέτι ἀμάρτανε. | |
