John 3

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