John 8:43 CPDV

⁴¹  You do the works of your father.' Therefore, they said to him: 'We were not born out of fornication. We have one father: God.'

⁴²  Then Jesus said to them: 'If God were your father, certainly you would love me. For I proceeded and came from God. For I did not come from myself, but he sent me.

⁴³  Why do you not recognize my speech? It is because you are not able to hear my word.

⁴⁴  You are of your father, the devil. And you will carry out the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning. And he did not stand in the truth, because the truth is not in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks it from his own self. For he is a liar, and the father of lies.

⁴⁵  But if I speak the truth, you do not believe me.
