1 But Jesus went to the mount of Olives. 2 And in the morning he again entered the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. 3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman who had been detected in adultery; and they made her stand in the midst, 4 and said to him: Teacher, this woman was detected in adultery; in the very act. 5 Now Moses, in his law, commanded us, that such should be stoned; but what say you? 6 This they said to tempt him, that they might bring an accusation against him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground. 7 But as they continued to ask him, he stood up, and said to them: Let him among you who is without sin, first throw a stone at her. 8 And again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
