← John 8:41 [words of Jesus]	John 8:42 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	John 8:43 [words of Jesus] →
Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.	Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.	Why do ye not understand my speech?
