John 8:57-59

New International Reader's Version

⁵⁷ “You are not even 50 years old,” they said to Jesus. “And you have seen Abraham?”

⁵⁸ “What I’m about to tell you is true,” Jesus answered. “Before Abraham was born, I am!” ⁵⁹ When he said this, they picked up stones to kill him. But Jesus hid himself. He slipped away from the temple area.
