John 3:27-35
27JohnG2491 repliedG611G2532G2036, “A manG444 canG3756G1410 receiveG2983 only whatG3761G1520G1437G3361 isG1510 givenG1325 himG846 fromG1537 heavenG3772. 28YouG4771 yourselvesG846 can testifyG3140 thatG3754 I saidG2036, ‘IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 theG3588 ChristG5547, butG235 amG1510 sentG649 ahead ofG1715 HimG1565.’ 29TheG3588 brideG3565 belongs toG3588G2192G1510 the bridegroomG3566. TheG3588 friendG5384 of theG3588 bridegroomG3566 standsG2476 andG2532 listens forG191 himG846, and is overjoyedG5463G5479 to hear theG3588 bridegroom’sG3588G3566 voiceG5456. ThatG3767G3778 joyG5479 is mineG1699, and it is now completeG4137. 30HeG1565 mustG1163 increaseG837; IG1473 must decreaseG1642.
31TheG3588 One who comesG2064 from aboveG509 isG1510 aboveG1883 allG3956. TheG3588 one who isG1510 fromG1537 theG3588 earthG1093 belongsG1510 toG1537 theG3588 earthG1093 andG2532 speaksG2980 as one fromG1537 theG3588 earthG1093. TheG3588 One who comesG2064 fromG1537 heavenG3772 isG1510 aboveG1883 allG3956.1 32He testifiesG3140 toG3778 whatG3739 He has seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191, yetG2532 no oneG3762 acceptsG2983 HisG846 testimonyG3141. 33WhoeverG3588 acceptsG2983 HisG846 testimonyG3141 has certifiedG4972 thatG3754 GodG2316 isG1510 truthfulG227. 34ForG1063 theG3739 One whomG3588 GodG2316 has sentG649 speaksG2980 theG3588 wordsG4487 of GodG2316, forG1063 God givesG1325 theG3588 SpiritG4151 withoutG3756G1537 limitG3358.
35TheG3588 FatherG3962 lovesG25 theG3588 SonG5207 andG2532 has placedG1325 all thingsG3956 inG1722 HisG846 handsG5495.
