John 3
1 There was a man of the Pharisees, the name to him Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews;
ⲁ̅ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲓⲕⲟⲇⲏⲙⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲁⲣ ⲭⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲓⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ.
2 the same came to Him by night, and said to Him, Rabbi, we know that thou hast come a teacher from God; for no one is able to do these miracles, which thou art doing, unless God may he with him.

3 Jesus responded and said to him, Truly, truly, I say unto thee, unless any one may be born from above, he is not able to see the kingdom of God.

4 Nicodemus says to him; How is a man able to be born, being old? whether he is able to enter the second time into the womb of his mother, and be born?

5 Jesus responded, Truly, truly, I say unto thee, Unless any one may be born of water and Spirit, he is not able to enter into the kingdom of the heavens.

6 That which has been born of the flesh is flesh; and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit.

8 The Spirit breathes on whom He willeth, and thou hearest His voice, but dost not know whence He cometh and whither He goeth; so is every one who has been born of the Spirit.

11 Truly, truly, I say unto thee, that we speak what we know, and testify what we have seen; and you received not our testimony.

13 No one hath ascended up into heaven, but the one having come down from heaven, the Son of man, who is in heaven.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so does it behoove the Son of man to be lifted up:

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that every one believing on Him may not perish but have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

17 For God sent not His Son into the world that He may condemn the world; but that the world through Him may be saved.

18 He that believeth on Him is not condemned; but he that believeth not, has already been condemned, because he has not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, that light has come into the world, and men love darkness rather than light; for their works are evil.

20 For every one doing evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, in order that his works may not be convicted;

21 but every one doing the truth comes to the light, that his works may be made manifest, because they have been wrought in God.

22 After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the Judean country; and there He was tarrying with them and baptizing.

23 And John was also baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there were many waters there: and they came and baptized.

26 And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, He who is with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all are coming to Him.
