John 1:35-50

35Again 1the next day John was standing 2with two of his disciples, 36and he looked at Jesus as He walked, and said, “Behold, 3the Lamb of God!” 37The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. 38And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What do you seek?” They said to Him, “4Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?” 39He said to them, “Come, and you will see.” So they came and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day, for it was about the 5tenth hour. 406One of the two who heard John speak and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. 41He found first his own brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the 7Messiah” (which translated means 8Christ). 42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of 910John; you shall be called 11Cephas” (which is translated 1213Peter).

4314The next day He purposed to go into 15Galilee, and He found 16Philip. And Jesus said to him, “17Follow Me.” 44Now 18Philip was from 19Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter. 4520Philip found 21Nathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom 22Moses in the Law and also 23the Prophets wrote--Jesus of 24Nazareth, 25the son of Joseph.” 46Nathanael said to him, “26Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” 27Philip said to him, “Come and see.” 47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and said of him, “Behold, an 28Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!” 48Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before 29Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49Nathanael answered Him, “30Rabbi, You are 31the Son of God; You are the 32King of Israel.” 50Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these.”
