[Then he turned] to [the] rulers of the people and made this statement: “Search [the] scriptures; [you think] you have life in them. They [testify] about me. Don’t [think] I’ve come to accuse [you] before my Father. [The one who accuses] you is Moses, in whom [you] hope.”
But they [said,] “We know [well] God [spoke] to Moses, but you -- we don’t know [where you’re from.”]
Jesus [told them] in reply, “Now [you] stand accused because [you don’t believe those who’ve been approved] by him; because if [you believed Moses,] you’d believe [me, for] he [wrote] about me to your ancestors [...]”

But since Jesus knew what [they] were thinking, [he scolded them] and asked [them,] “Why do you pay me lip service as a Teacher but [don’t do] what [I say? Isaiah] accurately prophesied [about] you when he said:
