Gospel John 8:1-11
1But Jesus continued on to the Mount of Olives.
2And early in the morning, he went again to the temple; and all the people came to him. And sitting down, he taught them.
3Now the scribes and Pharisees brought forward a woman caught in adultery, and they stood her in front of them.
4And they said to him: “Teacher, this woman was just now caught in adultery.
5And in the law, Moses commanded us to stone such a one. Therefore, what do you say?”
6But they were saying this to test him, so that they might be able to accuse him. Then Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the earth.
7And then, when they persevered in questioning him, he stood upright and said to them, “Let whoever is without sin among you be the first to cast a stone at her.”
8And bending down again, he wrote on the earth.
9But upon hearing this, they went away, one by one, beginning with the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, with the woman standing in front of him.
10Then Jesus, raising himself up, said to her: “Woman, where are those who accused you? Has no one condemned you?”
11And she said, “No one, Lord.” Then Jesus said: “Neither will I condemn you. Go, and now do not choose to sin anymore.”

Citations as published in the USCCB liturgical calendar.
In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.
Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
