5 In the Law, Moses commanded us to stone women like this. What do you say?"
6 They said this to test him, because they wanted a reason to bring an accusation against him. Jesus bent down and wrote on the ground with his finger.
7 They continued to question him, so he stood up and replied, "Whoever hasn’t sinned should throw the first stone."
8 Bending down again, he wrote on the ground.
9 Those who heard him went away, one by one, beginning with the elders. Finally, only Jesus and the woman were left in the middle of the crowd.
10 Jesus stood up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Is there no one to condemn you?"
