John 8:21-25 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

21. Again, Jesus said to the people, “I will leave you. You will look for me, but you will die in your sins. You cannot come where I am going.”

22. So the Jews asked, “Will he kill himself? Is that why he said, ‘You cannot come where I am going’?”

23. But Jesus said, “You people are from here below. But I am from above. You belong to this world, but I don’t belong to this world.

24. So I told you that you would die in your sins. Yes, you will die in your sins if you don’t believe that I am he.”

25. They asked, “Then who are you?”Jesus answered, “I am what I have told you from the beginning.
