John 1:40-49

401OneG1520 of the twoG1417 who heardG191 JohnG2491 speak, and followedG190 Him, was AndrewG406, SimonG4613 Peter’sG4074 brotherG80. 41He firstG4413 foundG2147 his ownG2398 brotherG80 SimonG4613 and saidG3004 to him, “We have foundG2147 the 2MessiahG3323” (whichG3739 translatedG3177 meansG1510 3ChristG5547). 42He broughtG71 him to JesusG2424. JesusG2424 lookedG1689 atG1689 him and saidG3004, “You are SimonG4613 the sonG5207 of 45JohnG2491G2495; you shall be calledG2564 6CephasG2786” (whichG3739 is translatedG2059 78PeterG4074).

439The nextG1887 dayG1887 He 10decidedG2309 to goG1831 to 11GalileeG1056, and He foundG2147 12PhilipG5376. And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “13FollowG190 Me.” 44NowG1161 14PhilipG5376 was from 15BethsaidaG966, the cityG4172 of AndrewG406 and PeterG4074. 4516PhilipG5376 foundG2147 17NathanaelG3482 and saidG3004 to him, “We have foundG2147 Him of whomG3739 18MosesG3475 wroteG1125 in the LawG3551, and 19the prophetsG4396 also wrote: JesusG2424 20the sonG5207 of JosephG2501, from 21NazarethG3478!” 46NathanaelG3482 saidG3004 to him, “22CanG1410 anythingG5100 goodG18 be from NazarethG3478?” 23PhilipG5376 saidG3004 to him, “ComeG2064 and seeG3708.” 47JesusG2424 sawG3708 NathanaelG3482 comingG2064 to Him, and saidG3004 of him, “HereG2396 isG2396 trulyG230 an 24IsraeliteG2475, in whomG3739 thereG1510 is noG3756 deceitG1388!” 48NathanaelG3482 saidG3004 to Him, “HowG4159 do You knowG1097 me?” JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to him, “BeforeG4253 25PhilipG5376 calledG5455 you, when you were underG5259 the figG4808 treeG4808, I sawG3708 you.” 49NathanaelG3482 answeredG611 Him, “26RabbiG4461, You are 27the SonG5207 of GodG2316; You are the 28KingG935 of IsraelG2474!”
