John 8-1:11
It is so powerful. I love it. Read the whole thing but here is a paraphrase.
He who is without sin cast the first stone......
"I do not condemn you, either. Go. From now on sin no more." - Jesus
Love in Jesus' name

The passage, John 7: 53 - 8: 11, is considered not to have been a part of the original Gospel of John. Most versions include it, many with footnotes, but some without. A few note that some manuscripts have changes which affect the meaning. Although wording varies. I found that the context of the story does not. However, the wording in some is a bit awkward.

Joh 8:7 But as they continued questioning Him, bending back up, He said to them, The one among you without sin, let him cast the first stone at her.
Joh 8:7 -
They continued asking him - They pressed the question upon him. They were determined to extort an answer from him, and showed a perseverance in evil which has been unhappily often imitated.
Is without sin - That is, without this particular sin; he who has not himself been guilty of this very crime - for in this place the connection evidently demands this meaning.
Let him first cast a stone at her - In the punishment by death, one of the witnesses threw the culprit from the scaffold, and the other threw the first stone, or rolled down a stone to crush him. See Deu_17:6-7. This was in order that the witness might feel his responsibility in giving evidence, as he was also to be the executioner. Jesus therefore put them to the test. Without pronouncing on her case, he directed them, if any of them were innocent, to perform the office of executioner. This was said, evidently, well knowing their guilt, and well knowing that no one would dare to do it.

The following:
[John 8:4] They said to him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.
[John 8:5] Now in the law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?"
[John 8:6] They said this to test him, so that they could have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with his finger.
[John 8:7] But when they continued asking him, he straightened up and said to them, "Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her."

John 8:7
"they kept demanding an answer so he stood up again and said,"all right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone."

The verse is John 8:9.
Just so that you (and others) know, there are searchable bibles online. Use them and you'll be able to find any scripture that you want with ease. Just google "bible online" and you'll find several resources.
Shalom!
