1 But Jesus went to the mount of Olives.

2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and he sat down and taught them.

3 And the scribes and the Pharisees bring {to him} a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,

4 they say to him, Teacher, this woman has been taken in the very act, committing adultery.

5 Now in the law Moses has commanded us to stone such; thou therefore, what sayest thou?

6 But this they said proving him, that they might have {something} to accuse him {of}. But Jesus, having stooped down, wrote with his finger on the ground.

7 But when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up and said to them, Let him that is without sin among you first cast the stone at her.

8 And again stooping down he wrote on the ground.

9 But they, having heard {that}, went out one by one beginning from the elder ones until the last; and Jesus was left alone and the woman standing there.

10 And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee?

11 And she said, No one, sir. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

1 耶稣往橄榄山去。

2 黎明的时候， 他又到圣殿去， 众人都来到他那里， 他就坐下教导他们。

3 经学家和法利赛人带了一个行淫时被抓到的妇人来， 叫她站在中间，

4 就对耶稣说： "先生， 这妇人是正在犯奸淫的时候被抓到的。

5 摩西在律法上吩咐我们把这样的妇人用石头打死， 你怎样说呢？"

6 他们说这话是要试探耶稣， 要找把柄来控告他。耶稣却弯下身， 用指头在地上写字。

7 他们不住地问耶稣， 他就挺起身来， 说： "你们中间谁是没有罪的， 他就可以先拿起石头打她。"

8 于是又弯下身在地上写字。

9 他们听了这话， 就从年老的开始， 一个一个地都离开了， 留下的只有耶稣和那个还站在那里的妇人。

10 耶稣挺起身来， 问她： "妇人， 他们在哪里？没有人定你的罪吗？"

11 她说： "主啊！ 没有。"耶稣说： "我也不定你的罪。走吧， 从现在起不要再犯罪了。"
