Jn Chapter 3 Verses 1-36

3:1
Now
there
was
among
the
Pharisees
a
man
named
Nicodemus,
who
was
one
of
the
rulers
of
the
Jews.
3:2
He
came to
Jesus
by
night
and
said
to
him,
Rabbi,
we
are
certain
that
you
have
come
from
God
as
a
teacher,
because
no
man
would
be able
to
do
these
signs
which
you
do
if
God
was
not
with
him.
3:3
Jesus
said
to
him,
Truly,
I
say
to
you,
Without
a
new
birth
no
man
is able
to
see
the
kingdom
of
God.
3:4
Nicodemus
said
to
him,
How
is
it
possible
for
a
man
to
be
given
birth
when
he
is
old?
Is
he
able
to go
into
his
mother’s
body
a
second
time
and
come to
birth
again?
3:5
Jesus
said
in
answer,
Truly,
I
say
to
you,
If
a
man’s
birth
is
not
from
water
and
from
the
Spirit,
it
is
not
possible
for
him
to go
into
the
kingdom
of
God.
3:6
That
which
has
birth
from
the
flesh
is
flesh,
and
that
which
has
birth
from
the
Spirit
is
spirit.
3:7
Do not
be
surprised
that
I
say
to
you,
It
is
necessary
for
you
to
have
a
second
birth.
3:8
The
wind
goes
where
its
pleasure
takes
it,
and
the
sound
of
it
comes to
your
ears,
but
you
are
unable
to
say
where
it
comes
from
and
where
it
goes:
so
it
is
with
everyone
whose
birth
is
from
the
Spirit.
3:9
And
Nicodemus
said
to
him,
How
is
it
possible
for
these
things
to
be?
3:10
And
Jesus,
answering,
said,
Are you
the
teacher
of
Israel
and
have
no
knowledge
of
these
things?
3:11
Truly,
I
say
to
you,
We
say
that
of
which
we
have
knowledge;
we
give
witness
of
what
we
have seen;
and
you
do not
take
our
witness
to
be
true.
3:12
If
you
have
no
belief
when
my
words
are
about
the
things
of
earth,
how
will you
have
belief
if
my
words
are
about
the
things
of
heaven?
3:13
And
no
one
has
ever
gone up
to
heaven
but
he
who
came
down
from
heaven,
the
Son
of
man.
3:14
As
the
snake
was
lifted
up
by
Moses
in
the
waste
land,
even
so
it
is
necessary
for
the
Son
of
man
to
be
lifted
up:
3:15
So
that
whoever
has
faith
may
have
in
him
eternal
life.
3:16
For
God
had
such
love
for
the
world
that
he
gave
his
only
Son,
so
that
whoever
has
faith
in
him
may
not
come to
destruction
but
have
eternal
life.
3:17
God
did not
send
his
Son
into
the
world
to
be
judge
of
the
world;
he
sent
him
so
that
the
world
might
have
salvation
through
him.
3:18
The
man
who
has
faith
in
him
does
not
come
up
to
be
judged;
but
he
who
has
no
faith
in
him
has been
judged
even
now,
because
he
has
no
faith
in
the
name
of
the
only
Son
of
God.
3:19
And
this
is
the
test
by
which
men
are
judged:
the
light
has
come
into
the
world
and
men
have
more
love
for
the
dark
than
for
the light,
because
their
acts
are
evil.
3:20
The
light
is
hated
by
everyone
whose
acts
are
evil
and
he
does
not
come to
the light
for
fear
that
his
acts
will
be
seen.
3:21
But
he
whose
life
is
true
comes to
the light,
so
that
it
may
be
clearly
seen
that
his
acts
have been
done
by
the
help
of
God.
3:22
After
these
things
Jesus
and
his
disciples
went into
the
land
of
Judaea,
and
there
he
was
with
them
for
some
time,
giving
baptism.
3:23
Now
John
was
then
giving
baptism
at
Aenon
near
Salim,
because
there
was
much
water
there;
and
people
came
and
were
given
baptism.
3:24
For
at
this
time
John
had not
been
put
into
prison.
3:25
Then
a
question
came
up
between
John’s
disciples
and
a
Jew
about
washing.
3:26
And
they
went to
John
and
said
to
him,
Rabbi,
the
man
who
was
with
you
on
the
other side
of
the
Jordan,
the
man
to
whom
you
gave
witness,
is
now
giving
baptism,
and
everyone
is
going to
him.
3:27
And
this
was
John’s
answer:
A
man
is
unable
to
have
anything
if
it
is
not
given
to
him
from
heaven.
3:28
You
yourselves
give
witness
that
I
said,
I
am not
the
Christ.
What
I
said
was,
I
am
sent
before
the
Christ.
3:29
He
who
has
the
bride
is
the
husband:
but
the
husband’s
friend,
whose
place
is
by
his
side
and
whose
ears
are
open
to
him,
is
full
of
joy
because
of
the
husband’s
voice:
such
is
my
joy,
and
it
is
complete.
3:30
He
has to
become
greater
while
I
become
less.
3:31
He
who
comes
from
heaven
is
greater than
all
others:
he
who
comes
from
earth
is
of
the
earth,
and
of
the
earth
are
his
words:
he
who
comes
from
heaven
is
over
all.
3:32
He
gives
witness
of
what
he
has seen
and
of
what
has
come to
his
ears;
and
no
man
takes
his
witness
as
true.
3:33
He
who
so
takes
his
witness
has
made
clear
his
faith
that
God
is
true.
3:34
For
he
whom
God
has
sent
says
God’s
words;
and
God
does not
give
him
the
Spirit
by
measure.
3:35
The
Father
has
love
for
the
Son
and
has
put
all
things
into
his
hands.
3:36
He
who
has
faith
in
the
Son
has
eternal
life;
but
he
who
has not
faith
in
the
Son
will not
see
life;
God’s
wrath
is
resting
on
him.
