John 1:33-41

33I did not recognizeG3609 1Him, but He who sentG3992 me to baptizeG907 2in waterG5204 saidG3004 to me, ‘He upon whomG3739 you seeG3708 the SpiritG4151 descendingG2597 and remainingG3306 upon Him, 3thisG3778 is the One who baptizesG907 4in the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.’ 34I myselfG1473 have seenG3708, and have testifiedG3140 that thisG3778 is 5the SonG5207 of GodG2316.”

35AgainG3825 6the nextG1887 dayG1887 JohnG2491 was standingG2476 7with twoG1417 of his disciplesG3101, 36and he lookedG1689 at JesusG2424 as He walkedG4043, and saidG3004, “BeholdG2396, 8the LambG286 of GodG2316!” 37The twoG1417 disciplesG3101 heardG191 him speakG2980, and they followedG190 JesusG2424. 38And JesusG2424 turnedG4762 and sawG2300 them followingG190, and saidG3004 to them, “WhatG5101 do you seekG2212?” They saidG3004 to Him, “9RabbiG4461 (whichG3739 translatedG3177 meansG3004 TeacherG1320), whereG4226 are You stayingG3306?” 39He saidG3004 to them, “ComeG2064, and you will seeG3708.” SoG3767 they cameG2064 and sawG3708 whereG4226 He was stayingG3306; and they stayedG3306 with Him that dayG2250, for it was aboutG5613 the 10tenthG1182 hourG5610. 4011OneG1520 of the twoG1417 who heardG191 JohnG2491 speak and followedG190 Him, was AndrewG406, SimonG4613 Peter’sG4074 brotherG80. 41He foundG2147 firstG4413 his ownG2398 brotherG80 SimonG4613 and saidG3004 to him, “We have foundG2147 the 12MessiahG3323” (whichG3739 translatedG3177 meansG1510 13ChristG5547).
