John 3:25-36

25ThereforeG3767 thereG1096 aroseG1096 a discussionG2214 on the part of John’sG2491 disciplesG3101 with a JewG2453 aboutG4012 1purificationG2512. 26And they cameG2064 to JohnG2491 and saidG3004 to him, “2RabbiG4461, He whoG3739 was with you 3beyondG4008 the JordanG2446, to whomG3739 you 4have testifiedG3140, beholdG2396, He is baptizingG907 and allG3956 are comingG2064 to Him.” 27JohnG2491 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “5A manG444 canG1410 receiveG2983 nothingG3756G3762 unlessG1437G3361 it 6has beenG1510 givenG1325 him from heavenG3772. 28You yourselvesG846 7are my witnessesG3140 that I saidG3004, ‘8I amG1510 not the 9ChristG5547,’ but, ‘I have beenG1510 sentG649 aheadG1715 of Him.’ 29He who hasG2192 the brideG3565 is 10the bridegroomG3566; but the friendG5384 of the bridegroomG3566, who standsG2476 and hearsG191 him, rejoicesG5463 greatlyG5479 becauseG1223 of the bridegroom’sG3566 voiceG5456. SoG3767 thisG3778 11joyG5479 of mineG1699 has been madeG4137 fullG4137. 30He mustG1163 increaseG837, but I must decreaseG1642.

31“12He who comesG2064 from aboveG509 is aboveG1883 allG3956, 13he who is of the earthG1093 is from the earthG1093 and speaksG2980 of the earthG1093. 14He who comesG2064 from heavenG3772 is aboveG1883 allG3956. 32WhatG3739 He has seenG3708 and heardG191, of that He 15testifiesG3140; and 16noG3762 oneG3762 receivesG2983 His testimonyG3140. 33He who has receivedG2983 His testimonyG3141 17has setG4972 his sealG4972 to this, that GodG2316 is trueG227. 34For He whomG3739 GodG2316 has 18sentG649 speaksG2980 the wordsG4487 of GodG2316; 1920for He givesG1325 the SpiritG4151 withoutG3756G1537 measureG3358. 3521The FatherG3962 lovesG25 the SonG5207 and 22has givenG1325 allG3956 thingsG3956 into His handG5495. 36He who 23believesG4100 in the SonG5207 hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222; but he who 24does not 25obeyG544 the SonG5207 will not seeG3708 lifeG2222, but the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 abidesG3306 on him.”
