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.
