John 3
King
James Version (KJV)
3 There
was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
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 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 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?
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.
6 That
which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is
spirit.
7 Marvel
not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
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.
9 Nicodemus
answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
10 Jesus
answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these
things?
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.
12 If I
have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I
tell you of heavenly things?
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.
14 And as
Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be
lifted up:
15 That
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
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.
17 For God
sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world
through him might be saved.
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.
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 For
every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest
his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he
that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that
they are wrought in God.
