And there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. |
2
|
He came to Jesus by night and said to Him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God; for no man can do these miracles which you do unless God is with him. |
3
|
Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. |
4
|
Nicodemus said to Him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb and be born? |
5
|
Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. |
6
|
That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. |
7
|
Do not marvel that I said to you, You must be born again. |
8
|
The Spirit breathes where He desires, and you hear His voice, but you do not know from where He comes, and where He goes; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit. |
9
|
Nicodemus answered and said to Him, How can these things be? |
10
|
Jesus answered and said to him, Are you the teacher of Israel and do not know these things? |
11
|
Truly, truly, I say to you, We speak what we know and testify what we have seen. And you do not receive our witness. |
12
|
If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how shall you believe if I tell you heavenly things? |
13
|
And no one has ascended up to Heaven except He who came down from Heaven, the Son of Man who is in Heaven. |
14
|
But even as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, |
15
|
so that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. |
16
|
For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. |
17
|
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him. |
18
|
He who believes on Him is not condemned, but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God. |
19
|
And this is the condemnation, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than the Light, because their deeds were evil. |
20
|
For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light, lest his deeds should be exposed. |
21
|
But he who practices truth comes to the Light so that his works may be revealed, that they exist, having been worked in God. |
22
|
After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea. And He stayed there with them and baptized. |
23
|
And John was also baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized. |
24
|
For John had not yet been cast into prison. |
25
|
Then a question from John's disciples arose with the Jews about purification. |
26
|
And they came to John and said to him, Rabbi, He who was with you beyond Jordan, to whom you bore witness, behold, He baptizes, and all come to Him! |
27
|
And John answered and said, A man can receive nothing unless it is given to him from Heaven. |
28
|
You yourselves bear witness to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before Him. |
29
|
He who has the bride is the bridegroom, but the friend of the bridegroom who stands and hears him rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Then my joy is fulfilled. |
30
|
He must increase, but I must decrease. |
31
|
He who comes from above is above all; he who is from the earth is earthly and speaks from the earth. He who comes from Heaven is above all, |
32
|
and what He has seen and heard, that He testifies, and no one receives His testimony. |
33
|
He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that God is true. |
34
|
For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure. |
35
|
The Father loves the Son and has given all things into His hand. |
36
|
He who believes on the Son has everlasting life, and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him. |
