| [1][G1161]There wasG2258[G5713] a manG444 ofG1537 the PhariseesG5330, namedG3686[G846] NicodemusG3530, a rulerG758 of the JewsG2453: |
[1]There was now a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. |
| [2]The sameG3778 cameG2064[G5627] toG4314 JesusG2424 by nightG3571, andG2532 saidG2036[G5627] unto himG846, RabbiG4461, we knowG1492[G5758] thatG3754 thou artG2064 a teacherG1320 comeG2064[G5754] fromG575 GodG2316: forG1063 no manG3762 canG1410[G5736] doG4160[G5721] theseG5023 miraclesG4592 thatG3739 thouG4771 doestG4160[G5719], exceptG3362 GodG2316 beG5600[G5753] withG3326 himG846. |
[2]He came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man could do these miracles that thou doest, except God were with him. |
| [3]JesusG2424 answeredG611[G5662] andG2532 saidG2036[G5627] unto himG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004[G5719] unto theeG4671, ExceptG3362 a manG5100 be bornG1080[G5686] againG509, he cannotG1410[G5736][G3756] seeG1492[G5629] the kingdomG932 of GodG2316. |
[3]Jesus answered, and said unto him, Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. |
| [4]NicodemusG3530 saithG3004[G5719] untoG4314 himG846, HowG4459 canG1410[G5736] a manG444 be bornG1080[G5683] when he isG5607[G5752] oldG1088? canG3361[G1410][G5736] he enterG1525[G5629] the second timeG1208 intoG1519 hisG846 mother'sG3384 wombG2836, andG2532 be bornG1080?[G5683] |
[4]Nicodemus said unto him, How can a man be born which is old? can he enter into his mothers womb again, and be born? |
| [5]JesusG2424 answeredG611[G5662], VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004[G5719] unto theeG4671, ExceptG3362 a manG5100 be bornG1080[G5686] ofG1537 waterG5204 andG2532 of the SpiritG4151, he cannotG3756[G1410][G5736] enterG1525[G5629] intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316. |
[5]Jesus answered, Verily, verily I say unto thee, except that a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. |
| [6]That which is bornG1080[G5772] ofG1537 the fleshG4561 isG2076[G5748] fleshG4561; andG2532 that which is bornG1080[G5772] ofG1537 the SpiritG4151 isG2076[G5748] spiritG4151. |
[6]That which is born of the flesh, is flesh: and that that is born of the Spirit, is spirit. |
| [7]MarvelG2296[G5661] notG3361 thatG3754 I saidG2036[G5627] unto theeG4671, YeG5209 mustG1163[G5748] be bornG1080[G5683] againG509. |
[7]Marvel not that I said to thee, Ye must be born again. |
| [8]The windG4151 blowethG4154[G5719] whereG3699 it listethG2309[G5719], andG2532 thou hearestG191[G5719] the soundG5456 thereofG846, butG235 canstG1492 notG3756 tellG1492[G5758] whenceG4159 it comethG2064[G5736], andG2532 whitherG4226 it goethG5217[G5719]: soG3779 isG2076[G5748] every oneG3956 that is bornG1080[G5772] ofG1537 the SpiritG4151. |
[8]The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whether it goeth: so is every man that is born of the Spirit. |
| [9]NicodemusG3530 answeredG611[G5662] andG2532 saidG2036[G5627] unto himG846, HowG4459 canG1410[G5736] these thingsG5023 beG1096?[G5635] |
[9]Nicodemus answered, and said unto him, How can these things be? |
| [10]JesusG2424 answeredG611[G5662] andG2532 saidG2036[G5627] unto himG846, ArtG1488[G5748] thouG4771 a masterG1320 of IsraelG2474, andG2532 knowestG1097[G5719] notG3756 these thingsG5023? |
[10]Jesus answered, and said unto him, Art thou a teacher of Israel, and knowest not these things? |
| [11]VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004[G5719] unto theeG4671, We speakG2980[G5719] thatG3754[G3739] we do knowG1492[G5758], andG2532 testifyG3140[G5719] thatG3739 we have seenG3708[G5758]; andG2532 ye receiveG2983[G5719] notG3756 ourG2257 witnessG3141. |
[11]Verily, verily I say unto thee, we speak that we know, and testify that we have seen: but ye receive not our witness. |
| [12]IfG1487 I have toldG2036[G5627] youG5213 earthly thingsG1919, andG2532 ye believeG4100[G5719] notG3756, howG4459 shall ye believeG4100[G5692], ifG1437 I tellG2036[G5632] youG5213 of heavenly thingsG2032? |
[12]If when I tell you earthly things, ye believe not, how should ye believe, if I shall tell you of heavenly things? |
| [13]AndG2532 no manG3762 hath ascended upG305[G5758] toG1519 heavenG3772, butG1508 he that came downG2597[G5631] fromG1537 heavenG3772, even the SonG5207 of manG444 whichG3588 isG5607[G5752] inG1722 heavenG3772. |
[13]For no man ascendeth up to heaven, but he that hath descended from heaven, the Son of man which is in heaven. |
| [14]AndG2532 asG2531 MosesG3475 lifted upG5312[G5656] the serpentG3789 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, even soG3779 mustG1163[G5748] the SonG5207 of manG444 be lifted upG5312:[G5683] |
[14]And as Moses lift up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lift up, |
| [15]ThatG3363 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100[G5723] inG1519 himG846 shouldG622 notG3363 perishG622[G5643], butG235 haveG2192[G5725] eternalG166 lifeG2222. |
[15]That whosoever believeth in him, should not perish, but have eternal life. |
| [16]ForG1063 GodG2316 soG3779 lovedG25[G5656] the worldG2889, thatG5620 he gaveG1325[G5656] hisG846 only begottenG3439 SonG5207, thatG2443 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100[G5723] inG1519 himG846 shouldG622 notG3361 perishG622[G5643], butG235 haveG2192[G5725] everlastingG166 lifeG2222. |
[16]For God so loved the world, that he hath given his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him, should not perish, but have everlasting life. |
| [17]ForG1063 GodG2316 sentG649[G5656] notG3756 hisG846 SonG5207 intoG1519 the worldG2889 toG2443 condemnG2919[G5725] the worldG2889; butG235 thatG2443 the worldG2889 throughG1223 himG846 might be savedG4982.[G5686] |
[17]For God sent not his Son into the world, that he should condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. |
| [18]He that believethG4100[G5723] onG1519 himG846 isG2919 notG3756 condemnedG2919[G5743]: butG1161 he that believethG4100[G5723] notG3361 is condemnedG2919[G5769] alreadyG2235, becauseG3754 he hathG4100 notG3361 believedG4100[G5758] inG1519 the nameG3686 of the only begottenG3439 SonG5207 of GodG2316. |
[18]He that believeth in him, shall not be condemned: but he that believeth not, is condemned already, because he believeth not in the Name of the only begotten Son of God. |
| [19]AndG1161 thisG3778 isG2076[G5748] the condemnationG2920, thatG3754 lightG5457 is comeG2064[G5754] intoG1519 the worldG2889, andG2532 menG444 lovedG25[G5656] darknessG4655 ratherG3123 thanG2228 lightG5457, becauseG1063 theirG846 deedsG2041 wereG2258[G5713] evilG4190. |
[19]And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. |
| [20]ForG1063 every oneG3956 that doethG4238[G5723] evilG5337 hatethG3404[G5719] the lightG5457, neitherG2532[G3756] comethG2064[G5736] toG4314 the lightG5457, lestG3363 hisG846 deedsG2041 should be reprovedG1651.[G5686] |
[20]For every man that evil doeth, hateth the light, neither cometh to light, lest his deeds should be reproved. |
| [21]ButG1161 he that doethG4160[G5723] truthG225 comethG2064[G5736] toG4314 the lightG5457, thatG2443 hisG846 deedsG2041 may be made manifestG5319[G5686], thatG3754 they areG2076[G5748] wroughtG2038[G5772] inG1722 GodG2316. |
[21]But he that doeth truth, cometh to the light, that his deeds might be made manifest, that they are wrought according to God. |
| [22]AfterG3326 these thingsG5023 cameG2064[G5627] JesusG2424 andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 intoG1519 the landG1093 of JudaeaG2449; andG2532 thereG1563 he tarriedG1304[G5707] withG3326 themG846, andG2532 baptizedG907.[G5707] |
[22]After these things, came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judea, and there tarried with them, and baptized. |
| [23]AndG1161 JohnG2491 alsoG2532 wasG2258[G5713] baptizingG907[G5723] inG1722 AenonG137 nearG1451 to SalimG4530, becauseG3754 there wasG2258[G5713] muchG4183 waterG5204 thereG1563: andG2532 they cameG3854[G5708], andG2532 were baptizedG907.[G5712] |
[23]And John also baptized in Enon besides Salem, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. |
| [24]ForG1063 JohnG2491 wasG2258[G5713] not yetG3768 castG906[G5772] intoG1519 prisonG5438. |
[24]For John was not yet cast into prison. |
| [25]ThenG3767 there aroseG1096[G5633] a questionG2214 betweenG3326 some ofG1537 John'sG2491 disciplesG3101 and the JewsG2453 aboutG4012 purifyingG2512. |
[25]Then there arose a question between Johns disciples and the Jews, about purifying. |
| [26]AndG2532 they cameG2064[G5627] untoG4314 JohnG2491, andG2532 saidG2036[G5627] unto himG846, RabbiG4461, heG3739 that wasG2258[G5713] withG3326 theeG4675 beyondG4008 JordanG2446, to whomG3739 thouG4771 barest witnessG3140[G5758], beholdG2396, the sameG3778 baptizethG907[G5719], andG2532 allG3956 men comeG2064[G5736] toG4314 himG846. |
[26]And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, he baptizeth, and all men come to him. |
| [27]JohnG2491 answeredG611[G5662] andG2532 saidG2036[G5627], A manG444 canG1410[G5736][G3756] receiveG2983[G5721] nothingG3762, exceptG3362 it beG5600[G5753] givenG1325[G5772] himG846 fromG1537 heavenG3772. |
[27]John answered, and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. |
| [28]YeG5210 yourselvesG846 bearG3140 meG3427 witnessG3140[G5719], thatG3754 I saidG2036[G5627], IG1473 amG1510[G5748] notG3756 the ChristG5547, butG235 thatG3754 I amG1510[G5748] sentG649[G5772] beforeG1715 himG1565. |
[28]Ye yourselves are my witnesses, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. |
| [29]He that hathG2192[G5723] the brideG3565 isG2076[G5748] the bridegroomG3566: butG1161 the friendG5384 of the bridegroomG3566, whichG3588 standethG2476[G5761] andG2532 hearethG191[G5723] himG846, rejoicethG5463[G5719] greatlyG5479 becauseG1223 of the bridegroom'sG3566 voiceG5456: thisG3778 myG1699 joyG5479 thereforeG3767 is fulfilledG4137.[G5769] |
[29]He that hath the bride, is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly, because of the bridegrooms voice. This my joy therefore is fulfilled. |
| [30]HeG1565 mustG1163[G5748] increaseG837[G5721], butG1161 IG1691 must decreaseG1642.[G5745] |
[30]He must increase, but I must decrease. |
| [31]He that comethG2064[G5740] from aboveG509 isG2076[G5748] aboveG1883 allG3956: he that isG5607[G5752] ofG1537 the earthG1093 isG2076[G5748] earthlyG1537[G1093], andG2532 speakethG2980[G5719] ofG1537 the earthG1093: he that comethG2064[G5740] fromG1537 heavenG3772 isG2076[G5748] aboveG1883 allG3956. |
[31]He that is come from on high, is above all: he that is of the earth, is of the earth, and speaketh of the earth: he that is come from heaven, is above all. |
| [32]AndG2532 whatG3739 he hath seenG3708[G5758] andG2532 heardG191[G5656], thatG5124 he testifiethG3140[G5719]; andG2532 no manG3762 receivethG2983[G5719] hisG846 testimonyG3141. |
[32]And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth: but no man receiveth his testimony. |
| [33]He that hath receivedG2983[G5631] hisG846 testimonyG3141 hath set to his sealG4972[G5656] thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076[G5748] trueG227. |
[33]He that hath received his testimony, hath sealed that God is true. |
| [34]ForG1063 he whomG3739 GodG2316 hath sentG649[G5656] speakethG2980[G5719] the wordsG4487 of GodG2316: forG1063 GodG2316 givethG1325[G5719] notG3756 the SpiritG4151 byG1537 measure unto himG3358. |
[34]For he whom God hath sent, speaketh the words of God: for God giveth him not the Spirit by measure. |
| [35]The FatherG3962 lovethG25[G5719] the SonG5207, andG2532 hath givenG1325[G5758] all thingsG3956 intoG1722 hisG846 handG5495. |
[35]The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. |
| [36]He that believethG4100[G5723] onG1519 the SonG5207 hathG2192[G5719] everlastingG166 lifeG2222: andG1161 he that believeth notG544[G5723] the SonG5207 shallG3700 notG3756 seeG3700[G5695] lifeG2222; butG235 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 abidethG3306[G5719] onG1909 himG846. |
[36]He that believeth in the Son, hath everlasting life, and he that obeyeth not the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him. |
