John 1:29-44

29On the morrow he seeth JesusG2424 comingG2064 unto him, and saith, BeholdG2396, the LambG286 of GodG2316, that taketh awayG142 the sinG266 of the worldG2889! 30This isG1510 he of whom I saidG3004, After me cometh a manG435 who isG1510 becomeG1096 before me: for he wasG1510 before me. 31And I knew him not; but that he should be madeG5319 manifestG5319 to IsraelG2474, for this cause cameG2064 I baptizingG907 in waterG5204. 32And JohnG2491 bare witnessG3140, sayingG3004, I have beheld the SpiritG4151 descendingG2597 as a doveG4058 out of heavenG3772; and it abode upon him. 33And I knew him not: but he that sentG3992 me to baptizeG907 in waterG5204, he saidG3004 unto me, Upon whomsoever thou shalt seeG3708 the SpiritG4151 descendingG2597, and abidingG3306 upon him, the sameG846 isG1510 he that baptizeth in the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 34And I have seenG3708, and have borne witnessG3140 that this isG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.

35AgainG3825 on the morrow JohnG2491 was standingG2476, and twoG1417 of his disciplesG3101; 36and he looked upon JesusG2424 as he walkedG4043, and saith, BeholdG2396, the LambG286 of GodG2316! 37And the twoG1417 disciplesG3101 heardG191 him speakG2980, and they followedG190 JesusG2424. 38And JesusG2424 turnedG4762, and beheld them followingG190, and saith unto them, What seekG2212 ye? And they saidG3004 unto him, RabbiG4461 (which is to sayG3004, being interpreted, TeacherG1320), whereG4226 abidest thou? 39He saith unto them, ComeG2064, and ye shall seeG3708. They cameG2064 thereforeG3767 and sawG3708 whereG4226 he abode; and they abode with him that dayG2250: it wasG1510 about the tenthG1182 hourG5610. 40OneG1520 of the twoG1417 that heardG191 JohnG2491 speakG3004, and followedG190 him, wasG1510 AndrewG406, SimonG4613 Peter’s brotherG80. 41He findeth firstG4413 his ownG2398 brotherG80 SimonG4613, and saith unto him, We have foundG2147 the Messiah (which isG1510, beingG1510 interpreted, ChristG5547). 42He broughtG71 him unto JesusG2424. JesusG2424 lookedG1689 upon him, and saidG3004, Thou art SimonG4613 the sonG5207 of JohnG2491G2495: thou shalt beG1510 calledG2564 CephasG2786 (which isG1510 by interpretation, PeterG4074).

43On the morrow he wasG1510 minded to goG1831 forthG1831 into GalileeG1056, and he findeth PhilipG5376: and JesusG2424 saith unto him, FollowG190 me. 44NowG1161 PhilipG5376 wasG1510 from BethsaidaG966, of the cityG4172 of AndrewG406 and PeterG4074.
