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.

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.
