It is God the only Son, who is close to the Fathers heart, who has made him known. <p><sup class="ww vnumVis">19</sup>This is the testimony given by John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you? <sup class="ww vnumVis">20</sup>He confessed and did not deny it, but confessed, I am not the Messiah. <sup class="ww vnumVis">21</sup>And they asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? He said, I am not. Are you the prophet? He answered, No. <sup class="ww vnumVis">22</sup>Then they said to him, Who are you? Let us have an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself? <sup class="ww vnumVis">23</sup>He said, I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as the prophet Isaiah said. <sup class="ww vnumVis">24</sup>Now they had been sent from the Pharisees. <sup class="ww vnumVis">25</sup>They asked him, Why then are you baptizing if you are neither the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the prophet? <sup class="ww vnumVis">26</sup>John answered them, I baptize with water. Among you stands one whom you do not know, <sup class="ww vnumVis">27</sup>the one who is coming after me; I am not worthy to untie the thong of his sandal. <sup class="ww vnumVis">28</sup>This took place in Bethany across the Jordan where John was baptizing. <p><sup class="ww vnumVis">29</sup>The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him and declared, Here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! <sup class="ww vnumVis">30</sup>This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me because he was before me. <sup class="ww vnumVis">31</sup>I myself did not know him; but I came baptizing with water for this reason, that he might be revealed to Israel. <sup class="ww vnumVis">32</sup>And John testified, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him. <sup class="ww vnumVis">33</sup>I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water said to me, He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit. <sup class="ww vnumVis">34</sup>And I myself have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God. <sup class="ww vnumVis">35</sup>The next day John again was standing with two of his disciples, <sup class="ww vnumVis">36</sup>and as he watched Jesus walk by, he exclaimed, Look, here is the Lamb of God! <p><sup class="ww vnumVis">37</sup>The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus. <sup class="ww vnumVis">38</sup>When Jesus turned and saw them following, he said to them, What are you looking for? They said to him, Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are you staying? <sup class="ww vnumVis">39</sup>He said to them, Come and see. They came and saw where he was staying, and they remained with him that day. It was about four oclock in the afternoon. <sup class="ww vnumVis">40</sup>One of the two who heard John speak and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peters brother. <sup class="ww vnumVis">41</sup>He first found his brother Simon and said to him, We have found the Messiah (which is translated Anointed). <sup class="ww vnumVis">42</sup>He brought Simon to Jesus, who looked at him and said, You are Simon son of John. You are to be called Cephas (which is translated Peter). <p><sup class="ww vnumVis">43</sup>The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, Follow me. <sup class="ww vnumVis">44</sup>Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. <sup class="ww vnumVis">45</sup>Philip found Nathanael and said to him, We have found him about whom Moses in the law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus son of Joseph from Nazareth. <sup class="ww vnumVis">46</sup>Nathanael said to him, Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him, Come and see. <sup class="ww vnumVis">47</sup>When Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, he said of him, Here is truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit! <sup class="ww vnumVis">48</sup>Nathanael asked him, Where did you get to know me? Jesus answered, I saw you under the fig tree before Philip called you. <sup class="ww vnumVis">49</sup>Nathanael replied, Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel! <sup class="ww vnumVis">50</sup>Jesus answered, Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these. <sup class="ww vnumVis">51</sup>And he said to him, Very truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man. <p><span class="cc vnumVis">2</span>On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. <sup class="ww vnumVis">2</sup>Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. <sup class="ww vnumVis">3</sup>When the wine gave out, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine. <sup class="ww vnumVis">4</sup>And Jesus said to her, Woman, what concern is that to you and to me? My hour has not yet come. <sup class="ww vnumVis">5</sup>His mother said to the servants, Do whatever he tells you. <sup class="ww vnumVis">6</sup>Now standing there were six stone water jars for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. <sup class="ww vnumVis">7</sup>Jesus said to them, Fill the jars with water. And they filled them up to the brim. <sup class="ww vnumVis">8</sup>He said to them, Now draw some out, and take it to the chief steward. So they took it. <sup class="ww vnumVis">9</sup>When the steward tasted the water that had become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward called the bridegroom <sup class="ww vnumVis">10</sup>and said to him, Everyone serves the good wine first, and then the inferior wine after the guests have become drunk. But you have kept the good wine until now. <sup class="ww vnumVis">11</sup>Jesus did this, the first of his signs, in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him. <p><sup class="ww vnumVis">12</sup>After this he went down to Capernaum with his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; and they remained there a few days. <sup class="ww vnumVis">13</sup>The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. <sup class="ww vnumVis">14</sup>In the temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. <sup class="ww vnumVis">15</sup>Making a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple, both the sheep and the cattle. He also poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. <sup class="ww vnumVis">16</sup>He told those who were selling the doves, Take these things out of here! Stop making my Fathers house a marketplace! <sup class="ww vnumVis">17</sup>His disciples remembered that it was written, Zeal for your house will consume me. <sup class="ww vnumVis">18</sup>The Jews then said to him, What sign can you show us for doing this? <sup class="ww vnumVis">19</sup>Jesus answered them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. <sup class="ww vnumVis">20</sup>The Jews then said, This temple has been under construction for forty-six years, and will you raise it up in three days? <sup class="ww vnumVis">21</sup>But he was speaking of the temple of his body. <sup class="ww vnumVis">22</sup>After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken. <p><sup class="ww vnumVis">23</sup>When he was in Jerusalem during the Passover festival, many believed in his name because they saw the signs that he was doing. <sup class="ww vnumVis">24</sup>But Jesus on his part would not entrust himself to them, because he knew all people <sup class="ww vnumVis">25</sup>and needed no one to testify about anyone; for he himself knew what was in everyone. <p><span class="cc vnumVis">3</span>Now there was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews. <sup class="ww vnumVis">2</sup>He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God. <sup class="ww vnumVis">3</sup>Jesus answered him, Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above. <sup class="ww vnumVis">4</sup>Nicodemus said to him, How can anyone be born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into the mothers womb and be born? <sup class="ww vnumVis">5</sup>Jesus answered, Very truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. <sup class="ww vnumVis">6</sup>What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. <sup class="ww vnumVis">7</sup>Do not be astonished that I said to you, You must be born from above. <sup class="ww vnumVis">8</sup>The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit. <sup class="ww vnumVis">9</sup>Nicodemus said to him, How can these things be? <sup class="ww vnumVis">10</sup>Jesus answered him, Are you a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things? <sup class="ww vnumVis">11</sup>Very truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen; yet you do not receive our testimony. <sup class="ww vnumVis">12</sup>If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you about heavenly things? <sup class="ww vnumVis">13</sup>No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. <sup class="ww vnumVis">14</sup>And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, <sup class="ww vnumVis">15</sup>that whoever believes in him may have eternal life. <sup class="ww vnumVis">16</sup>For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life. <sup class="ww vnumVis">17</sup>Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. <sup class="ww vnumVis">18</sup>Those who believe in him are not condemned; but those who do not believe are condemned already, because they have not believed in the name of the only Son of God. <sup class="ww vnumVis">19</sup>And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and people loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil. <sup class="ww vnumVis">20</sup>For all who do evil hate the light and do not come to the light, so that their deeds may not be exposed. <sup class="ww vnumVis">21</sup>But those who do what is true come to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that their deeds have been done in God. </p> </div> <div class="adj"> <table border="0" width="100%"><tr><td valign="top" align="right"><<</td><td valign="top" align="left"><form method="post" action="/?passage=John%201:18–3:21&version=nrsv" enctype="multipart/form-data"><input type="hidden" name="passage" value="John 1.1-17" /> <input type="submit" name="show passage_button" value="John 1.1-17" /> <input type="hidden" name="vnum" value="yes" /> <input type="hidden" name="fnote" value="yes" /> <input type="hidden" name="headings" value="no" /> <input type="hidden" name="adj" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="version" value="nrsv" /> </form> </td><td valign="top" align="right"><form method="post" action="/?passage=John%201:18–3:21&version=nrsv" enctype="multipart/form-data"><input type="hidden" name="passage" value="John 3.22-36" /> <input type="submit" name="show passage_button" value="John 3.22-36" /> <input type="hidden" name="vnum" value="yes" /> <input type="hidden" name="fnote" value="yes" /> <input type="hidden" name="headings" value="no" /> <input type="hidden" name="adj" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="version" value="nrsv" /> </form> </td><td valign="top" align="left">>></td></tr></table> </div> </div> <div class="copyright dmtog"> <hr /> <p class="dmtog"> <cite>New Revised Standard Version Bible</cite>, copyright © 1989 National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.
