< John 3 >

1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Niqadimus, a ruler of the Jewish people.

2 This man came to him at night, and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him."

3 Yeshua answered him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, unless one is born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God."

4 Niqadimus said to him, "How can anyone be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲕⲟⲇⲏⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁϣ ⲛϩⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϫⲡⲉ ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲕⲉⲥⲟⲡ ⲉⲁϥⲣ ϩⲗⲗⲟ ⲙⲏ ⲟⲩⲛ ϣϭⲟⲙ ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉϩⲏⲧⲥ ⲛⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲕⲉⲥⲟⲡ ⲛⲥⲉϫⲡⲟϥ
5 Yeshua answered, "Truly, truly, I tell you, unless one is born of water and Rukha he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Rukha is spirit.

8 The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Rukha."

9 Niqadimus answered and said to him, "How can these things be?"

10 Yeshua answered him, "Are you the teacher of Israyel, and do not understand these things?

11 Truly, truly, I tell you, we speak that which we know, and testify of that which we have seen, but you do not accept our testimony.

12 If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?

13 And no one has ascended into heaven, but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven.

14 And as Mushe lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

16 For this is how God loved the world: he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have life without end. (aiōnios g166)
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲧⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙⲉⲣⲉ ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁϥ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲛⲉϥϩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϥⲉϫⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ϣⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϩ (aiōnios g166)
17 For God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛⲧⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲛⲛⲉⲩ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ
18 The one who believes in him is not judged, but the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

19 This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their works were evil.

20 For everyone who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, so that his works will not be exposed.

21 But the one who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God."

22 After these things, Yeshua came with his disciples into the land of Yehuda. He stayed there with them, and was baptizing.

23 Now Yukhanan also was baptizing in Ain-Yaun near Shalim, because there was much water there. They came, and were baptized.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲕⲉⲓⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲍⲉ ϩⲛ ⲁⲓⲛⲱⲛ ϩⲁⲧⲛ ⲥⲁⲗⲉⲓⲙ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲩ ϩⲁϩ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲏⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲓ ⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ
24 For Yukhanan was not yet thrown into prison.

25 Now a dispute arose between Yukhanan's disciples with a Jew about purification.

26 And they came to Yukhanan, and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Yurdinan, to whom you have testified, look, he is baptizing, and everyone is coming to him."

27 Yukhanan answered, "No one can receive anything, unless it has been given to him from heaven.
