John 8:26-33
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 8
26I have many things to say and to judge regarding you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I say to the world.' 27They did not realize that He was speaking to them about the Father. 28So Jesus said, 'When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am, and I do nothing on My own, but I say these things as the Father instructed Me. 29And He who sent Me is with Me; He has not left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.' 30As He said these things, many came to believe in Him.
31So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, 'If you continue in My word, then you are truly My disciples;
32and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.'
33They answered Him, 'We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, ‘You will become free’?'
King James Version

28So Jesus said to them, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own. But just as the Father taught me, I say these things.
29The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what pleases him."

Chapter 8
26I have much to say about you and much to condemn, but I won’t. For I say only what I have heard from the one who sent me, and he is completely truthful.' 27But they still didn’t understand that he was talking about his Father.
28So Jesus said, 'When you have lifted up the Son of Man on the cross, then you will understand that I AM he. I do nothing on my own but say only what the Father taught me.
29And the one who sent me is with me — he has not deserted me. For I always do what pleases him.'
30Then many who heard him say these things believed in him.
