John 1:40-49

40One of the two who heard John speak and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

41He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which means Christ).

42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon the son of John. You shall be called Cephas" (which means Peter).

43The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, "Follow me."

44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

46Nathanael said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."

47Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!"

48Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

49Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"
