John - Chapter: 3


3:1	There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
3:2	The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3:3	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.
3:4	Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
3:5	Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
3:6	That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
3:7	Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
3:8	The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
3:9	Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
3:10	Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
3:11	Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
3:12	If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
3:13	And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
3:14	And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
3:15	That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
3:16	For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
3:17	For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
3:18	He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
3:19	And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
3:20	For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
3:21	But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
3:22	After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.
3:23	And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
3:24	For John was not yet cast into prison.
3:25	Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying.
3:26	And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.
3:27	John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.
3:28	Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.
3:29	He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.
3:30	He must increase, but I must decrease.
3:31	He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
3:32	And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.
3:33	He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
3:34	For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.
3:35	The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
3:36	He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.


3:1	There was nowe a man of the Pharises, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Iewes.
3:2	This man came to Iesus by night, and sayd vnto him, Rabbi, we knowe ye thou art a teacher come from God: for no man could do these miracles that thou doest, except God were with him.
3:3	Iesus answered, and said vnto him, Verely, verely I say vnto thee, except a man be borne againe, he can not see the kingdome of God.
3:4	Nicodemus sayde vnto him, Howe can a man be borne which is olde? can he enter into his mothers wombe againe, and be borne?
3:5	Iesus answered, Verely, verely I say vnto thee, except that a man be borne of water and of the Spirite, hee can not enter into the kingdome of God.
3:6	That which is borne of the flesh, is flesh: and that that is borne of the Spirit, is spirit.
3:7	Marueile not that I said to thee, Yee must be borne againe.
3:8	The winde bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it commeth, and whither it goeth: so is euery man that is borne of the Spirit.
3:9	Nicodemus answered, and said vnto him, Howe can these things be?
3:10	Iesus answered, and saide vnto him, Art thou a teacher of Israel, and knowest not these things?
3:11	Verely, verely I say vnto thee, wee speake that we know, and testifie that we haue seene: but yee receiue not our witnesse.
3:12	If when I tel you earthly things, ye beleeue not, howe should yee beleeue, if I shall tel you of heauenly things?
3:13	For no man ascendeth vp to heauen, but he that hath descended from heauen, that Sonne of man which is in heauen.
3:14	And as Moses lift vp the serpent in the wildernesse, so must that Sonne of man be lift vp,
3:15	That whosoeuer beleeueth in him, shoulde not perish, but haue eternall life.
3:16	For God so loued the worlde, that hee hath giuen his onely begotten Sonne, that whosoeuer beleeueth in him, should not perish, but haue euerlasting life.
3:17	For God sent not his Sonne into the world, that he should condemne the world, but that the world through him might be saued.
3:18	Hee that beleeueth in him, is not condemned: but hee that beleeueth not, is condemned already, because he hath not beleeued in the Name of that onely begotten Sonne of God.
3:19	And this is the condemnation, that that light came into the worlde, and men loued darknesse rather then that light, because their deedes were euill.
3:20	For euery man that euill doeth, hateth the light, neither commeth to light, least his deedes should be reprooued.
3:21	But he that doeth trueth, commeth to the light, that his deedes might bee made manifest, that they are wrought according to God.
3:22	After these things, came Iesus and his disciples into the lande of Iudea, and there taried with them, and baptized.
3:23	And Iohn also baptized in Enon besides Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
3:24	For Iohn was not yet cast into prison.
3:25	Then there arose a question betweene Iohns disciples and the Iewes, about purifying.
3:26	And they came vnto Iohn, and saide vnto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Iorden, to whom thou barest witnesse, behold, he baptizeth, and all men come to him.
3:27	Iohn answered, and saide, A man can receiue nothing, except it be giuen him from heauen.
3:28	Yee your selues are my witnesses, that I sayde, I am not that Christ, but that I am sent before him.
3:29	He that hath the bride, is the bridegrome: but the friend of the bridegrome which standeth and heareth him, reioyceth greatly, because of the bridegromes voyce. This my ioy therefore is fulfilled.
3:30	He must increase, but I must decrease.
3:31	Hee that is come from an hie, is aboue all: he that is of the earth, is of the earth, and speaketh of the earth: hee that is come from heauen, is aboue all.
3:32	And what hee hath seene and heard, that he testifieth: but no man receiueth his testimonie.
3:33	He that hath receiued his testimonie, hath sealed that God is true.
3:34	For hee whome God hath sent, speaketh the woordes of God: for God giueth him not the Spirit by measure.
3:35	The Father loueth the Sonne, and hath giuen all things into his hande.
3:36	Hee that beleeueth in the Sonne, hath euerlasting life, and hee that obeyeth not the Sonne, shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him.


3:1	Ther was a man of the pharises named Nicodemus a ruler amonge ye Iewes.
3:2	The same cam to Iesus by nyght and sayde vnto him: Rabbi we knowe that thou arte a teacher whiche arte come from God. For no man coulde do suche miracles as thou doest except God were with him.
3:3	Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Verely verely I saye vnto the: except a man be boren a newe he cannot se the kyngdom of God.
3:4	Nicodemus sayde vnto him: how can a man be boren when he is olde? can he enter into his moders wombe and be boren agayne?
3:5	Iesus answered: verely verely I saye vnto the: except that a man be boren of water and of ye sprete he cannot enter into the kyngdome of god.
3:6	That which is boren of the flesshe is flesshe: and that which is boren of the sprete is sprete.
3:7	Marvayle not that I sayd to the ye must be boren a newe.
3:8	The wynde bloweth where he listeth and thou hearest his sounde: but canst not tell whence he cometh and whether he goeth. So is every man that is boren of the sprete.
3:9	And Nicodemus answered and sayde vnto him: how can these thinges be?
3:10	Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: arte thou a master in Israel and knowest not these thinges?
3:11	Verely verely I saye vnto the we speake that we knowe and testify that we have sene: and ye receave not oure witnes.
3:12	Yf when I tell you erthely thinges ye beleve not: how shuld ye beleve yf I shall tell you of hevenly thinges?
3:13	And no man ascendeth vp to heaven but he that came doune from heaven that is to saye the sonne of man which is in heaven.
3:14	And as Moses lifte vp the serpent in the wyldernes even so must the sonne of man be lifte vp
3:15	that none that beleveth in him perisshe: but have eternall lyfe.
3:16	For God so loveth the worlde yt he hath geven his only sonne that none that beleve in him shuld perisshe: but shuld have everlastinge lyfe.
3:17	For God sent not his sonne into the worlde to condepne the worlde: but that the worlde through him might be saved.
3:18	He that beleveth on him shall not be condepned. But he that beleveth not is condempned all redy be cause he beleveth not in the name of the only sonne of God.
3:19	And this is the condempnacion: that light is come into the worlde and the me loved darcknes more then light because their dedes were evill.
3:20	For every man that evyll doeth hateth the light: nether commeth to light lest his dedes shuld be reproved.
3:21	But he that doth truth commeth to the light that his dedes might be knowen how that they are wrought in God.
3:22	After these thinges cam Iesus and his disciples into the Iewes londe and ther he haunted with them and baptised.
3:23	And Iohn also baptised in Enon besydes Salim because ther was moche water there and they came and were baptised.
3:24	For Iohn was not yet cast into preson.
3:25	And ther arose a questio bitwene Iohns disciples and the Iewes about purifiynge.
3:26	And they came vnto Iohn and sayde vnto him: Rabbi he that was with the beyonde Iordan to whom thou barest witnes. Beholde the same baptyseth and all me come to him.
3:27	Iohn answered and sayde: a man can receave no thinge at all except it be geve him fro heaven.
3:28	Ye youre selves are witnesses how that I sayde: I am not Christ but am sent before him.
3:29	He that hath the bryde is the brydegrome. But the frende of the brydegrome which stondeth by and heareth him reioyseth greately of the brydgromes voyce. Tis my ioye is fulfilled.
3:30	He must increace: and I muste decreace.
3:31	He that commeth from an hye is above all: He that is of ye erth is of the erth and speaketh of the erth. He that cometh from heaven is above all
3:32	and what he hath sene and hearde: that he testifieth: but no man receaveth his testimonye.
3:33	How be it he that hath receaved hys testimonye hath set to his seale that God is true.
3:34	For he whom God hath sent speaketh the wordes of God. For God geveth not the sprete by measure.
3:35	The father loveth the sonne and hath geven all thinges into his honde.
3:36	He that beleveth on the sonne hath everlastynge lyfe: and he that beleveth not the sonne shall not se lyfe but the wrathe of God abydeth on him.
