1 Now|strong="G1161" there|strong="G1161" was|strong="G1510" a|strong="G1510" man of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G1537" Pharisees|strong="G5330", named|strong="G3686" Nicodemus|strong="G3530", a|strong="G1510" ruler of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G1537" Jews|strong="G2453":
2 The|strong="G2532" same|strong="G3778" came|strong="G2064" unto|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588" by|strong="G4314" night|strong="G3571", and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588", Rabbi|strong="G4461", we|strong="G3739" know|strong="G1492" that|strong="G3754" thou|strong="G4771" art|strong="G4771" a|strong="G2532" teacher|strong="G1320" come|strong="G2064" from|strong="G2064" God|strong="G2316": for|strong="G1063" no|strong="G3762" man|strong="G3778" can|strong="G1410" do|strong="G4160" these|strong="G3778" signs|strong="G4592" that|strong="G3754" thou|strong="G4771" doest|strong="G4160", except|strong="G1437" God|strong="G2316" be|strong="G1510" with|strong="G3326" him|strong="G3588".
3 Jesus|strong="G2424" answered|strong="G3004" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G3004" him|strong="G3588", Verily|strong="G2532", verily|strong="G2532", I|strong="G2532" say|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G3004" thee|strong="G1080", Except|strong="G1437" a|strong="G2532" man|strong="G5100" be|strong="G2532" born|strong="G1080" anew, he|strong="G2532" cannot|strong="G1410" see|strong="G3708" the|strong="G2532" kingdom of|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316".
4 Nicodemus|strong="G3530" saith|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588", How|strong="G4459" can|strong="G1410" a|strong="G2532" man|strong="G3361" be|strong="G1510" born|strong="G1080" when|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" is|strong="G1510" old|strong="G1088"? can|strong="G1410" he|strong="G2532" enter|strong="G1525" a|strong="G2532" second|strong="G1208" time|strong="G1208" into|strong="G1519" his|strong="G1519" mother|strong="G3384"’s womb|strong="G2836", and|strong="G2532" be|strong="G1510" born|strong="G1080"?
5 Jesus|strong="G2424" answered|strong="G3004", Verily|strong="G2532", verily|strong="G2532", I|strong="G2532" say|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G3004" thee|strong="G1080", Except|strong="G1437" a|strong="G2532" man|strong="G5100" be|strong="G2532" born|strong="G1080" of|strong="G1537" water|strong="G5204" and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" Spirit|strong="G4151", he|strong="G2532" cannot|strong="G1410" enter|strong="G1525" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" kingdom of|strong="G1537" God|strong="G2316".
6 That|strong="G3588" which|strong="G3588" is|strong="G1510" born|strong="G1080" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" flesh|strong="G4561" is|strong="G1510" flesh|strong="G4561"; and|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" which|strong="G3588" is|strong="G1510" born|strong="G1080" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" Spirit|strong="G4151" is|strong="G1510" spirit|strong="G4151".
7 Marvel|strong="G2296" not|strong="G3361" that|strong="G3754" I|strong="G3754" said|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G3004" thee|strong="G1080", Ye|strong="G5210" must|strong="G1163" be|strong="G1163" born|strong="G1080" anew.
8 The|strong="G2532" wind|strong="G4154" bloweth|strong="G4154" where|strong="G3699" it|strong="G2532" listeth, and|strong="G2532" thou|strong="G2309" hearest the|strong="G2532" voice|strong="G5456" thereof, but|strong="G2532" knowest|strong="G1492" not|strong="G3756" whence|strong="G4159" it|strong="G2532" cometh|strong="G2064", and|strong="G2532" whither|strong="G3699" it|strong="G2532" goeth|strong="G5217": so|strong="G3779" is|strong="G1510" every|strong="G3956" one|strong="G3956" that|strong="G3588" is|strong="G1510" born|strong="G1080" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" Spirit|strong="G4151".
9 Nicodemus|strong="G3530" answered|strong="G3004" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G3004" him|strong="G2532", How|strong="G4459" can|strong="G1410" these|strong="G3778" things|strong="G3778" be|strong="G1096"?
10 Jesus|strong="G2424" answered|strong="G3004" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G3004" him|strong="G3588", Art|strong="G4771" thou|strong="G4771" the|strong="G2532" teacher|strong="G1320" of|strong="G2532" Israel|strong="G2474", and|strong="G2532" understandest not|strong="G3756" these|strong="G3778" things|strong="G3778"?
11 Verily|strong="G2532", verily|strong="G2532", I|strong="G1473" say|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G3004" thee|strong="G2983", We|strong="G2249" speak|strong="G2980" that|strong="G3754" we|strong="G2249" do|strong="G1492" know|strong="G1492", and|strong="G2532" bear|strong="G3140" witness|strong="G3140" of|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3754" we|strong="G2249" have|strong="G2532" seen|strong="G3708"; and|strong="G2532" ye|strong="G3739" receive|strong="G2983" not|strong="G3756" our|strong="G2532" witness|strong="G3140".
12 If|strong="G1487" I|strong="G2532" told|strong="G3004" you|strong="G5210" earthly|strong="G1919" things|strong="G3588", and|strong="G2532" ye|strong="G5210" believe|strong="G4100" not|strong="G3756", how|strong="G4459" shall|strong="G2532" ye|strong="G5210" believe|strong="G4100", if|strong="G1487" I|strong="G2532" tell|strong="G3004" you|strong="G5210" heavenly|strong="G2032" things|strong="G3588"?
13 And|strong="G2532" no|strong="G3762" man|strong="G3762" hath|strong="G2532" ascended|strong="G3588" into|strong="G1519" heaven|strong="G3772", but|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" descended|strong="G2597" out|strong="G1537" of|strong="G1537" heaven|strong="G3772", even the|strong="G1722" Son|strong="G5207" of|strong="G1537" man|strong="G3762", which|strong="G3588" is|strong="G1510" in|strong="G1722" heaven|strong="G3772".
14 And|strong="G2532" as|strong="G2531" Moses|strong="G3475" lifted|strong="G5312" up|strong="G1210" the|strong="G1722" serpent|strong="G3789" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" wilderness|strong="G2048", even|strong="G2532" so|strong="G3779" must|strong="G1163" the|strong="G1722" Son|strong="G5207" of|strong="G5207" man|strong="G5207" be|strong="G2532" lifted|strong="G5312" up|strong="G1210":
15 that|strong="G2443" whosoever|strong="G3956" believeth|strong="G4100" may|strong="G2443" in|strong="G1722" him|strong="G3588" have|strong="G2192" eternal life|strong="G2222".
16 For|strong="G1063" God|strong="G2316" so|strong="G3779" loved the|strong="G1519" world|strong="G2889", that|strong="G2443" he|strong="G3588" gave|strong="G1325" his|strong="G3956" only|strong="G3439" begotten|strong="G3439" Son|strong="G5207", that|strong="G2443" whosoever|strong="G3956" believeth|strong="G4100" on|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588" should|strong="G2316" not|strong="G3361" perish, but|strong="G3361" have|strong="G2192" eternal life|strong="G2222".
17 For|strong="G1063" God|strong="G2316" sent|strong="G2316" not|strong="G3756" the|strong="G1519" Son|strong="G5207" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1519" world|strong="G2889" to|strong="G1519" judge|strong="G2919" the|strong="G1519" world|strong="G2889"; but|strong="G1063" that|strong="G2443" the|strong="G1519" world|strong="G2889" should|strong="G2316" be|strong="G3756" saved|strong="G4982" through|strong="G1223" him|strong="G3588".
18 He|strong="G1161" that|strong="G3754" believeth|strong="G4100" on|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588" is|strong="G3588" not|strong="G3756" judged|strong="G2919": he|strong="G1161" that|strong="G3754" believeth|strong="G4100" not|strong="G3756" hath|strong="G2316" been|strong="G2235" judged|strong="G2919" already|strong="G2235", because|strong="G3754" he|strong="G1161" hath|strong="G2316" not|strong="G3756" believed|strong="G4100" on|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1519" name|strong="G3686" of|strong="G5207" the|strong="G1519" only|strong="G3439" begotten|strong="G3439" Son|strong="G5207" of|strong="G5207" God|strong="G2316".
19 And|strong="G2532" this|strong="G3778" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G2532" judgment|strong="G2920", that|strong="G3754" the|strong="G2532" light|strong="G5457" is|strong="G1510" come|strong="G2064" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" world|strong="G2889", and|strong="G2532" men|strong="G3778" loved the|strong="G2532" darkness|strong="G4655" rather|strong="G3123" than|strong="G2228" the|strong="G2532" light|strong="G5457"; for|strong="G1063" their|strong="G2532" works|strong="G2041" were|strong="G1510" evil|strong="G4190".
20 For|strong="G1063" every|strong="G3956" one|strong="G3956" that|strong="G2443" doeth|strong="G4238" ill hateth|strong="G3404" the|strong="G2532" light|strong="G5457", and|strong="G2532" cometh|strong="G2064" not|strong="G3756" to|strong="G4314" the|strong="G2532" light|strong="G5457", lest|strong="G3361" his|strong="G3956" works|strong="G2041" should|strong="G3588" be|strong="G2532" reproved|strong="G1651".
21 But|strong="G1161" he|strong="G1161" that|strong="G3754" doeth|strong="G4160" the|strong="G1722" truth cometh|strong="G2064" to|strong="G4314" the|strong="G1722" light|strong="G5457", that|strong="G3754" his|strong="G1722" works|strong="G2041" may|strong="G2443" be|strong="G1510" made|strong="G4160" manifest|strong="G5319", that|strong="G3754" they|strong="G1161" have|strong="G3748" been|strong="G1510" wrought|strong="G2038" in|strong="G1722" God|strong="G2316".
22 After|strong="G3326" these|strong="G3778" things|strong="G3778" came|strong="G2064" Jesus|strong="G2424" and|strong="G2532" his|strong="G1519" disciples|strong="G3101" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" land|strong="G1093" of|strong="G2532" Judaea; and|strong="G2532" there|strong="G1563" he|strong="G2532" tarried|strong="G1304" with|strong="G3326" them|strong="G3588", and|strong="G2532" baptized.
23 And|strong="G2532" John|strong="G2491" also|strong="G2532" was|strong="G1510" baptizing in|strong="G1722" AEnon near|strong="G1451" to|strong="G2532" Salim|strong="G4530", because|strong="G3754" there|strong="G1563" was|strong="G1510" much|strong="G4183" water|strong="G5204" there|strong="G1563": and|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" came|strong="G3854", and|strong="G2532" were|strong="G1510" baptized.
24 For|strong="G1063" John|strong="G2491" was|strong="G1510" not|strong="G1510" yet|strong="G3768" cast into|strong="G1519" prison|strong="G5438".
25 There|strong="G1096" arose|strong="G1096" therefore|strong="G3767" a|strong="G1096" questioning on|strong="G1537" the|strong="G1537" part of|strong="G1537" John|strong="G2491"’s disciples|strong="G3101" with|strong="G3326" a|strong="G1096" Jew|strong="G2453" about|strong="G4012" purifying|strong="G2512".
26 And|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" came|strong="G2064" unto|strong="G4314" John|strong="G2491", and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588", Rabbi|strong="G4461", he|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3739" was|strong="G1510" with|strong="G3326" thee beyond|strong="G4008" Jordan|strong="G2446", to|strong="G4314" whom|strong="G3739" thou|strong="G4771" hast|strong="G2532" borne witness|strong="G3140", behold|strong="G2396", the|strong="G2532" same|strong="G3778" baptizeth, and|strong="G2532" all|strong="G3956" men|strong="G3956" come|strong="G2064" to|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588".
27 John|strong="G2491" answered|strong="G3004" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004", A|strong="G2532" man|strong="G3762" can|strong="G1410" receive|strong="G2983" nothing|strong="G3762", except|strong="G1437" it|strong="G2532" have|strong="G2532" been|strong="G1510" given|strong="G1325" him|strong="G3588" from|strong="G1537" heaven|strong="G3772".
28 Ye|strong="G5210" yourselves|strong="G4771" bear|strong="G3140" me|strong="G1473" witness|strong="G3140", that|strong="G3754" I|strong="G1473" said|strong="G3004", I|strong="G1473" am|strong="G1510" not|strong="G3756" the|strong="G3588" Christ|strong="G5547", but|strong="G3588", that|strong="G3754" I|strong="G1473" am|strong="G1510" sent before|strong="G1715" him|strong="G3588".
29 He|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" hath|strong="G2192" the|strong="G2532" bride|strong="G3565" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G2532" bridegroom|strong="G3566": but|strong="G1161" the|strong="G2532" friend|strong="G5384" of|strong="G1223" the|strong="G2532" bridegroom|strong="G3566", which|strong="G3588" standeth|strong="G2476" and|strong="G2532" heareth him|strong="G3588", rejoiceth|strong="G5463" greatly|strong="G5479" because|strong="G1223" of|strong="G1223" the|strong="G2532" bridegroom|strong="G3566"’s|strong="G2192" voice|strong="G5456": this|strong="G3778" my|strong="G1699" joy|strong="G5479" therefore|strong="G3767" is|strong="G1510" fulfilled|strong="G4137".
30 He|strong="G1161" must|strong="G1163" increase, but|strong="G1161" I|strong="G1473" must|strong="G1163" decrease|strong="G1642".
31 He|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" cometh|strong="G2064" from|strong="G1537" above|strong="G1883" is|strong="G1510" above|strong="G1883" all|strong="G3956": he|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" is|strong="G1510" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" earth|strong="G1093" is|strong="G1510" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" earth|strong="G1093", and|strong="G2532" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" earth|strong="G1093" he|strong="G2532" speaketh|strong="G2980": he|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3588" cometh|strong="G2064" from|strong="G1537" heaven|strong="G3772" is|strong="G1510" above|strong="G1883" all|strong="G3956".
32 What|strong="G3739" he|strong="G2532" hath|strong="G2532" seen|strong="G3708" and|strong="G2532" heard, of|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3739" he|strong="G2532" beareth witness|strong="G3140"; and|strong="G2532" no|strong="G3762" man|strong="G3762" receiveth|strong="G2983" his|strong="G2983" witness|strong="G3140".
33 He|strong="G3754" that|strong="G3754" hath|strong="G2316" received|strong="G2983" his|strong="G2983" witness|strong="G3141" hath|strong="G2316" set|strong="G4972" his|strong="G2983" seal|strong="G4972" to|strong="G2316" this, that|strong="G3754" God|strong="G2316" is|strong="G1510" true|strong="G3588".
34 For|strong="G1063" he|strong="G3739" whom|strong="G3739" God|strong="G2316" hath|strong="G2316" sent|strong="G2316" speaketh|strong="G2980" the|strong="G1537" words|strong="G4487" of|strong="G1537" God|strong="G2316": for|strong="G1063" he|strong="G3739" giveth|strong="G1325" not|strong="G3756" the|strong="G1537" Spirit|strong="G4151" by|strong="G1537" measure|strong="G3358".
35 The|strong="G1722" Father|strong="G3962" loveth the|strong="G1722" Son|strong="G5207", and|strong="G2532" hath|strong="G2532" given|strong="G1325" all|strong="G3956" things|strong="G3956" into|strong="G1722" his|strong="G3956" hand|strong="G5495".
36 He|strong="G1161" that|strong="G3588" believeth|strong="G4100" on|strong="G1909" the|strong="G1519" Son|strong="G5207" hath|strong="G2192" eternal life|strong="G2222"; but|strong="G1161" he|strong="G1161" that|strong="G3588" obeyeth not|strong="G3756" the|strong="G1519" Son|strong="G5207" shall|strong="G2316" not|strong="G3756" see|strong="G3708" life|strong="G2222", but|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1519" wrath|strong="G3709" of|strong="G5207" God|strong="G2316" abideth|strong="G3306" on|strong="G1909" him|strong="G3588".
