John 8:44-46

New Testament for Everyone

⁴⁴ You are from your father—the devil! And you’re eager to get on with what he wants. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he’s never remained in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells lies, he speaks what comes naturally to him, because he is a liar—in fact, he’s the father of lies! ⁴⁵ But because I speak the truth, you don’t believe me. ⁴⁶ Which of you can bring a charge of sin against me? If I speak the truth, why don’t you believe me?
