1There wasG1510 a manG444 ofG1537 the PhariseesG3588G5330, namedG3686 NicodemusG3530, a rulerG758 of the JewsG2453:

2The sameG3778 cameG2064 toG4314 JesusG3588G2424 by nightG3571, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, we knowG1492 thatG3754 thou artG2064 a teacherG1320 comeG2064 fromG575 GodG2316: forG1063 no manG3762 canG1410 doG4160 theseG3778 miraclesG3588G4592 thatG3739 thouG4771 doestG4160, exceptG3361 GodG3588G2316 beG1510 withG3326 himG846.

3JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto theeG4771, ExceptG3361 a manG5100 be bornG1080 againG509, he cannotG3756G1410 seeG3708 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316.
