John 5:17-23 (8 in 7 verses)

 5:17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

 5:19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

 5:20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.

 5:21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

 5:23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
