< John 3 >

1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
There was now a man of the Pharisees, Nicodemus name to him, a ruler of the Jews.
2 He came to Jesus by 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.”
He came to (Him *N+KO) by night and said to Him; Rabbi, we know that from God You have come a teacher; no [one] for is able these signs to do that You yourself do, only unless shall be God with him.
3 Jesus answered him, “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom.”
Answered Jesus and said to him; Amen Amen I say to you; only unless someone shall be born from above, not he is able to see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
Says to Him Nicodemus; How is able a man to be born old being? Not is he able into the womb of the mother of him a second time to enter and to be born?
5 Jesus answered, “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born of water and Spirit, he can’t enter into God’s Kingdom.
Answered Jesus; Amen Amen I say to you, only unless someone shall be born of water and of [the] Spirit, not he is able to enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
That born of the flesh flesh is, and that born of the Spirit spirit is.
7 Don’t marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born anew.’
Not may do wonder that I said to you; It is necessary for you [all] to be born from above.
8 The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but don’t know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
The wind where it wishes blows, and the sound of it You hear but not you know from where it comes and where it goes; thus is everyone who born of the Spirit.
9 Nicodemus answered him, “How can these things be?”
Answered Nicodemus and said to Him; How are able these things to be?
10 Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel, and don’t understand these things?
Answered Jesus and said to him; You yourself are the teacher of Israel and these things not know?
11 Most certainly I tell you, we speak that which we know and testify of that which we have seen, and you don’t receive our witness.
Amen Amen I say to you that what we know we speak and what we have seen we bear witness to, and the witness of us not you people receive.
12 If I told you earthly things and you don’t believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
If the [things] earthly I have told you and not you believe, how if I may tell to you the [things] heavenly will you believe?
13 No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven.
And no [one] has gone up into heaven only except the [One] out of heaven having come down, the Son of Man (who is being in heaven. *KO)
14 As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
And even as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, thus to be lifted up it behooves the Son of Man,
15 that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
so that everyone who is believing (in Him *N+kO) (not may perish but *K) may have life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only born Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Thus for loved God the world, that the Son (of him *ko) the only begotten He gave, so that everyone who is believing in Him not may perish but may have life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God didn’t send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
Not for sent God the Son (of Him *ko) into the world that He may judge the world, but that may be saved the world through Him.
18 He who believes in him is not judged. He who doesn’t believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only born Son of God.
The [one] believing on Him not is judged; the [one] but not believing already has been judged because not he has believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil.
This now is the judgement that the Light has come into the world, and loved men rather the darkness than the Light; were for of them evil the deeds.
20 For everyone who does evil hates the light and doesn’t come to the light, lest his works would be exposed.
Everyone for evil practicing hates the Light and not comes to the Light so that not may be exposed the works of him;
21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God.”
the [one] however practicing the truth comes to the Light that may be manifest his works that in God have been done.
22 After these things, Jesus came with his disciples into the land of Judea. He stayed there with them and baptized.
After these things came Jesus and the disciples of Him into the Judean land, and there He was staying with them and was baptizing.
23 John also was baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there was much water there. They came and were baptized;
Was now also John baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because waters many were there. and they were coming and were being baptized;
24 for John was not yet thrown into prison.
Not yet for were cast into the prison John.
25 Therefore a dispute arose on the part of John’s disciples with some Jews about purification.
Arose then a debate among the disciples of John with ([a certain] Jew *N+KO) about purification.
26 They came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified, behold, he baptizes, and everyone is coming to him.”
And they came to John and said to him; Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you yourself have borne witness, behold He baptizes, and all are coming to Him.
27 John answered, “A man can receive nothing unless it has been given him from heaven.
Answered John and said; Nothing is able a man to receive (and not *N+kO) (one *no) only unless it shall be given to him from heaven.
28 You yourselves testify that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent before him.’
Yourselves you yourselves to me bear witness that I said (that: *n) (I myself *o) Not am I myself the Christ, but for sent I am before Him.
29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. Therefore my joy is made full.
The [one] having the bride [the] bridegroom is. the now friend of the bridegroom, the [one] having stood and listening for him, with joy rejoices because of the voice of the bridegroom. This therefore the joy of mine has been fulfilled.
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
Him it behooves to increase, me myself however to decrease.
31 “He who comes from above is above all. He who is from the earth belongs to the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.
The [One] from above coming above all is. The [one] being from the earth from the earth is and from the earth speaks. The [One] from heaven coming above all is;
32 What he has seen and heard, of that he testifies; and no one receives his witness.
(and *k) What He has seen and heard, this He testifies, and the testimony of Him no [one] receives.
33 He who has received his witness has set his seal to this, that God is true.
The [one] having received His testimony has set his seal that God true is.
34 For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for God gives the Spirit without measure.
He whom for sent God, the declarations of God speaks; not for by measure He gives (God *KO) the Spirit.
35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.
The Father loves the Son and all things has given into the hand of Him.
36 One who believes in the Son has eternal life, but one who disobeys the Son won’t see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.” (aiōnios g166)
The [one] believing in the Son has life eternal; the [one] however not obeying the Son not will behold life, but the wrath of God abides on him. (aiōnios g166)
