John 8:55

and you-have_not_known same; moreover, I have-beheld same, and if-supposing I-may-say that I-have_not_beheld same, I-will-be [a] falsifier/liar similar of{you}; contrariwise, I-have-beheld same and I-am-keeping the word of{same}.

Garth's Hyper-literal Translation

In The King James Version

Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
