< John 3 >

1 And there was a man of the Pharisees, his name Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews;
Ther was a man of the pharises named Nicodemus a ruler amonge ye Iewes.
2 this one came to Him by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we have known that You have come from God—a teacher, for no one is able to do these signs that You do, if God may not be with him.”
The same cam to Iesus by nyght and sayde vnto him: Rabbi we knowe that thou arte a teacher whiche arte come from God. For no man coulde do suche miracles as thou doest except God were with him.
3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone may not be born from above, he is not able to see the Kingdom of God”;
Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Verely verely I saye vnto the: except a man be boren a newe he cannot se the kyngdom of God.
4 Nicodemus says to Him, “How is a man able to be born, being old? Is he able to enter into the womb of his mother a second time, and to be born?”
Nicodemus sayde vnto him: how can a man be boren when he is olde? can he enter into his moders wombe and be boren agayne?
5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone may not be born of water and the Spirit, he is not able to enter into the Kingdom of God;
Iesus answered: verely verely I saye vnto the: except that a man be boren of water and of ye sprete he cannot enter into the kyngdome of god.
6 that which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit.
That which is boren of the flesshe is flesshe: and that which is boren of the sprete is sprete.
7 You may not wonder that I said to you, It is required for you to be born from above;
Marvayle not that I sayd to the ye must be boren a newe.
8 the Spirit blows where [that] One wills, and you hear [that] One’s voice, but you have not known from where [that] One comes, and to where [that] One goes; thus is everyone who has been born of the Spirit.”
The wynde bloweth where he listeth and thou hearest his sounde: but canst not tell whence he cometh and whether he goeth. So is every man that is boren of the sprete.
9 Nicodemus answered and said to Him, “How are these things able to happen?”
And Nicodemus answered and sayde vnto him: how can these thinges be?
10 Jesus answered and said to him, “You are the teacher of Israel and you do not know these things?
Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: arte thou a master in Israel and knowest not these thinges?
11 Truly, truly, I say to you, what We have known We speak, and what We have seen We testify, and you do not receive Our testimony;
Verely verely I saye vnto the we speake that we knowe and testify that we have sene: and ye receave not oure witnes.
12 if I spoke to you of the earthly things, and you do not believe, how, if I will speak to you of the heavenly things, will you believe?
Yf when I tell you erthely thinges ye beleve not: how shuld ye beleve yf I shall tell you of hevenly thinges?
13 And no one has gone up to Heaven, except He who came down out of Heaven—the Son of Man who is in Heaven.
And no man ascendeth vp to heaven but he that came doune from heaven that is to saye the sonne of man which is in heaven.
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so it is necessary for the Son of Man to be lifted up,
And as Moses lifte vp the serpent in the wyldernes even so must the sonne of man be lifte vp
15 that everyone who is believing in Him may not perish, but may have continuous life, (aiōnios g166)
that none that beleveth in him perisshe: but have eternall lyfe. (aiōnios g166)
16 for God so loved the world that He gave the only begotten Son, that everyone who is believing in Him may not perish, but may have continuous life. (aiōnios g166)
For God so loveth the worlde yt he hath geven his only sonne that none that beleve in him shuld perisshe: but shuld have everlastinge lyfe. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God did not send His Son into the world that He may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through Him;
For God sent not his sonne into the worlde to condepne the worlde: but that the worlde through him might be saved.
18 he who is believing in Him is not judged, but he who is not believing has been judged already, because he has not believed in the Name of the only begotten Son of God.
He that beleveth on him shall not be condepned. But he that beleveth not is condempned all redy be cause he beleveth not in the name of the only sonne of God.
19 And 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;
And this is the condempnacion: that light is come into the worlde and the me loved darcknes more then light because their dedes were evill.
20 for everyone who is doing wicked things hates the light, and does not come into the light, that his works may not be detected;
For every man that evyll doeth hateth the light: nether commeth to light lest his dedes shuld be reproved.
21 but he who is doing the truth comes into the light, that his works may be revealed, that in God they are having been worked.”
But he that doth truth commeth to the light that his dedes might be knowen how that they are wrought in God.
22 After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He tarried with them, and was immersing;
After these thinges cam Iesus and his disciples into the Iewes londe and ther he haunted with them and baptised.
23 and John was also immersing in Aenon, near to Salem, because there were many waters there, and they were coming and were being immersed—
And Iohn also baptised in Enon besydes Salim because ther was moche water there and they came and were baptised.
24 for John was not yet cast into the prison—
For Iohn was not yet cast into preson.
25 there arose then a question from the disciples of John with [some] Jews about purifying,
And ther arose a questio bitwene Iohns disciples and the Iewes about purifiynge.
26 and they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you testified, behold, this One is immersing, and all are coming to Him.”
And they came vnto Iohn and sayde vnto him: Rabbi he that was with the beyonde Iordan to whom thou barest witnes. Beholde the same baptyseth and all me come to him.
27 John answered and said, “A man is not able to receive anything if it may not have been given him from Heaven;
Iohn answered and sayde: a man can receave no thinge at all except it be geve him fro heaven.
28 you yourselves testify to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am having been sent before Him;
Ye youre selves are witnesses how that I sayde: I am not Christ but am sent before him.
29 He who is having the bride is bridegroom, and the friend of the bridegroom, who is standing and hearing Him, rejoices with joy because of the voice of the bridegroom; this, then, my joy has been fulfilled.
He that hath the bryde is the brydegrome. But the frende of the brydegrome which stondeth by and heareth him reioyseth greately of the brydgromes voyce. Tis my ioye is fulfilled.
30 It is necessary [for] Him to increase, and me to become less;
He must increace: and I muste decreace.
31 He who is coming from above is above all; he who is from the earth, from the earth he is, and from the earth he speaks; He who is coming from Heaven is above all.
He that commeth from an hye is above all: He that is of ye erth is of the erth and speaketh of the erth. He that cometh from heaven is above all
32 And what He has seen and heard—this He testifies, and none receives His testimony;
and what he hath sene and hearde: that he testifieth: but no man receaveth his testimonye.
33 he who is receiving His testimony sealed that God is true;
How be it he that hath receaved hys testimonye hath set to his seale that God is true.
34 for He whom God sent, He speaks the sayings of God; for God does not give the Spirit by measure;
For he whom God hath sent speaketh the wordes of God. For God geveth not the sprete by measure.
35 the Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand;
The father loveth the sonne and hath geven all thinges into his honde.
36 he who is believing in the Son has continuous life; and he who is not believing the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.” (aiōnios g166)
He that beleveth on the sonne hath everlastynge lyfe: and he that beleveth not the sonne shall not se lyfe but the wrathe of God abydeth on him. (aiōnios g166)
