44 I har djevelen til far, og I vil gjøre eders fars lyster; han var en manndraper fra begynnelsen og står ikke i sannheten; for sannhet er ikke i ham. Når han taler løgn, taler han av sitt eget, for han er en løgner og løgnens far.

44 You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.
