1NowG1161 thereG1510 wasG1510 aG1510 manG444 ofG1537 theG3588 PhariseesG5330, namedG3686 NicodemusG3530, aG1510 rulerG758 ofG1537 theG3588 JewsG2453: 2TheG3588 sameG846 cameG2064 unto himG846 byG575 nightG3571, andG2532 saidG3004 toG4314 himG846, RabbiG4461, weG3739 knowG1492 thatG3754 thou art aG1510 teacherG1320 comeG2064 fromG575 GodG2316: forG1063 noG3762 manG3778 canG1410 doG4160 theseG3778 signsG4592 thatG3754 thou doest, exceptG3361 GodG2316 beG1510 withG3326 himG846. 3JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, Verily, verily, IG281 sayG3004 unto thee, ExceptG3361 a manG5100 beG2532 bornG1080 anew, heG2532 cannotG3756 seeG3708 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG932 GodG2316. 4NicodemusG3530 saith unto himG846, HowG4459 canG1410 aG1510 manG444 beG1510 bornG1080 whenG2532 heG2532 isG1510 oldG1088? canG1410 heG2532 enterG1525 aG1510 secondG1208 timeG1208 intoG1519 hisG846 mother’sG3384 wombG2836, andG2532 beG1510 bornG1080? 5JesusG2424 answeredG611, Verily, verily, IG281 sayG3004 unto thee, ExceptG3361 a manG5100 beG2532 bornG1080 ofG1537 waterG5204 andG2532 theG3588 SpiritG4151, heG2532 cannotG3756 enterG1525 intoG1519 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG1537 GodG2316. 6ThatG4151 whichG3588 isG1510 bornG1080 ofG1537 theG3588 fleshG4561 isG1510 fleshG4561; andG2532 thatG4151 whichG3588 isG1510 bornG1080 ofG1537 theG3588 SpiritG4151 isG1510 spiritG4151. 7MarvelG2296 notG3361 thatG3754 IG3754 saidG3004 unto thee, Ye must beG1163 bornG1080 anew. 8TheG3956 windG4151 bloweth whereG3699 itG846 listeth, andG2532 thou hearest theG3956 voiceG5456 thereof, butG235 knowest notG3756 whence itG846 cometh, andG2532 whither itG846 goeth: soG2532 isG1510 everyG3956 oneG3588 thatG191 isG1510 bornG1080 ofG1537 theG3956 SpiritG4151. 9NicodemusG3530 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, HowG4459 canG1410 theseG3778 thingsG3778 beG1096? 10JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, Art thou theG3588 teacherG1320 ofG3004 IsraelG2474, andG2532 understandest notG3756 theseG3778 thingsG3778? 11Verily, verily, IG1473 sayG3004 unto thee, WeG2249 speakG2980 thatG3754 weG2249 doG1492 knowG1492, andG2532 bearG3140 witnessG3140 ofG3141 thatG3754 weG2249 have seenG3708; andG2532 ye receiveG2983 notG3756 ourG2532 witnessG3140. 12IfG1487 IG1437 toldG3004 youG5210 earthlyG1919 thingsG2032, andG2532 ye believeG4100 notG3756, howG4459 shallG2532 ye believeG4100, ifG1487 IG1437 tellG3004 youG5210 heavenlyG2032 thingsG2032? 13AndG2532 noG3762 manG444 hath ascendedG305 intoG1519 heavenG3772, butG2532 heG2532 thatG444 descendedG2597 outG1537 ofG5207 heavenG3772, evenG2532 theG3588 SonG5207 ofG5207 manG444, whichG3588 isG1510 inG1722 heavenG3772. 14AndG2532 asG2531 MosesG3475 liftedG5312 upG1210 theG3588 serpentG3789 inG1722 theG3588 wildernessG2048, evenG2532 soG2532 must theG3588 SonG5207 ofG5207 manG444 beG1163 liftedG5312 upG1210: 15thatG2443 whosoever believeth mayG2443 inG1722 himG846 have eternalG166 lifeG2222. 16ForG1063 GodG2316 soG2443 lovedG25 theG3956 worldG2889, thatG2443 heG846 gaveG1325 hisG846 onlyG3439 begottenG3439 SonG5207, thatG2443 whosoever believeth onG1519 himG846 shouldG2443 notG3361 perishG622, butG235 have eternalG166 lifeG2222. 17ForG1063 GodG2316 sentG649 notG3756 theG3588 SonG5207 intoG1519 theG3588 worldG2889 toG1519 judgeG2919 theG3588 worldG2889; butG235 thatG2443 theG3588 worldG2889 shouldG2443 beG2316 savedG4982 throughG1223 himG846. 18HeG846 thatG3754 believeth onG1519 himG846 is notG3756 judgedG2919: heG846 thatG3754 believeth notG3756 hath beenG2235 judgedG2919 alreadyG2235, becauseG3754 heG846 hath notG3756 believedG4100 onG1519 theG3588 nameG3686 ofG5207 theG3588 onlyG3439 begottenG3439 SonG5207 ofG5207 GodG2316. 19AndG2532 thisG3778 isG1510 theG3588 judgmentG2920, thatG3754 theG3588 lightG5457 isG1510 comeG2064 intoG1519 theG3588 worldG2889, andG2532 menG444 lovedG25 theG3588 darknessG4655 ratherG3123 thanG2228 theG3588 lightG5457; forG1063 theirG846 worksG2041 wereG1510 evilG4190. 20ForG1063 everyG3956 oneG3588 thatG2443 doeth ill hateth theG3956 lightG5457, andG2532 cometh notG3756 toG4314 theG3956 lightG5457, lestG3361 hisG846 worksG2041 shouldG2443 beG2532 reprovedG1651. 21ButG1161 heG846 thatG3754 doeth theG3588 truthG225 cometh toG4314 theG3588 lightG5457, thatG3754 hisG846 worksG2041 mayG2443 beG1510 madeG4160 manifestG5319, thatG3754 theyG846 haveG1510 beenG1510 wrought inG1722 GodG2316. 22AfterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778 cameG2064 JesusG2424 andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 intoG1519 theG3588 landG1093 ofG1093 Judaea; andG2532 thereG1563 heG2532 tarried withG3326 themG846, andG2532 baptizedG907. 23AndG2532 JohnG2491 alsoG2532 wasG1510 baptizingG907 inG1722 AEnonG137 nearG1451 toG2532 SalimG4530, becauseG3754 thereG1563 wasG1510 muchG4183 waterG5204 thereG1563: andG2532 theyG2532 cameG3854, andG2532 wereG1510 baptizedG907. 24ForG1063 JohnG2491 wasG1510 notG1510 yetG3768 castG906 intoG1519 prisonG5438. 25ThereG1096 aroseG1096 thereforeG3767 a questioning onG1537 theG3588 part ofG1537 John’sG2491 disciplesG3101 withG3326 a JewG2453 aboutG4012 purifying. 26AndG2532 theyG846 cameG2064 unto JohnG2491, andG2532 saidG3004 toG4314 himG846, RabbiG4461, heG2532 thatG3739 wasG1510 withG3326 thee beyondG4008 JordanG2446, toG4314 whomG3739 thou hast borne witnessG3140, beholdG2396, theG3956 sameG846 baptizeth, andG2532 allG3956 menG3956 comeG2064 toG4314 himG846. 27JohnG2491 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, A manG444 canG1410 receiveG2983 nothingG3762, exceptG3361 itG846 haveG1510 beenG1510 givenG1325 himG846 fromG1537 heavenG3772. 28Ye yourselvesG846 bearG3140 meG3004 witnessG3140, thatG3754 IG1473 saidG3004, IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 theG3588 ChristG5547, butG235, thatG3754 IG1473 amG1510 sentG649 beforeG1715 himG846. 29HeG2532 thatG191 hath theG3588 brideG3565 isG1510 theG3588 bridegroomG3566: butG1161 theG3588 friendG5384 ofG1223 theG3588 bridegroomG3566, whichG3588 standeth andG2532 heareth himG846, rejoiceth greatlyG5479 becauseG1223 ofG1223 theG3588 bridegroom’sG3566 voiceG5456: thisG3778 myG1699 joyG5479 thereforeG3767 isG1510 fulfilledG4137. 30HeG1161 must increaseG837, butG1161 IG1473 must decreaseG1642. 31HeG2532 thatG3956 cometh fromG1537 aboveG509 isG1510 aboveG509 allG3956: heG2532 thatG3956 isG1510 ofG1537 theG3956 earthG1093 isG1510 ofG1537 theG3956 earthG1093, andG2532 ofG1537 theG3956 earthG1093 heG2532 speaketh: heG2532 thatG3956 cometh fromG1537 heavenG3772 isG1510 aboveG509 allG3956. 32WhatG3739 heG2532 hath seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191, ofG3141 thatG3739 heG2532 beareth witnessG3140; andG2532 noG3762 manG3762 receiveth hisG846 witnessG3140. 33HeG846 thatG3754 hath receivedG2983 hisG846 witnessG3141 hath setG4972 hisG846 sealG4972 toG846 thisG3588, thatG3754 GodG2316 isG1510 trueG227. 34ForG1063 heG3739 whomG3739 GodG2316 hath sentG649 speaketh theG3588 wordsG4487 ofG1537 GodG2316: forG1063 heG3739 giveth notG3756 theG3588 SpiritG4151 byG1537 measureG3358. 35TheG3956 FatherG3962 loveth theG3956 SonG5207, andG2532 hath givenG1325 allG3956 thingsG3956 intoG1722 hisG846 handG5495. 36HeG846 thatG4100 believeth onG1909 theG3588 SonG5207 hath eternalG166 lifeG2222; butG1161 heG846 thatG4100 obeyeth notG3756 theG3588 SonG5207 shallG2316 notG3756 seeG3708 lifeG2222, butG1161 theG3588 wrathG3709 ofG5207 GodG2316 abideth onG1909 himG846.
