John 3
1 And there was a man of the Pharisees, Nicodemus his name, a ruler of the Jews,
But there was one of the Pharishee whose name was Nikodimos, a ruler of the Jihudoyee:
2 this one came unto him by night, and said to him, 'Rabbi, we have known that from God thou hast come — a teacher, for no one these signs is able to do that thou dost, if God may not be with him.'
this came to Jeshu in the night, and said to him, Rabi, we know that from Aloha thou art sent a teacher; for no man can these signs perform which thou doest, unless Aloha be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said to him, 'Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born from above, he is not able to see the reign of God;'
Jeshu answered and said to him, Amen, amen, I say to thee, Except a man be born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of Aloha.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, 'How is a man able to be born, being old? is he able into the womb of his mother a second time to enter, and to be born?'
Nikodimos said to him, How can an old man be born? Who can again the womb of his mother the second time enter, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, 'Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born of water, and the Spirit, he is not able to enter into the reign of God;
Jeshu answered and said to him, Amen, amen, I say to thee, That if a man be not born of waters and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of Aloha.
6 that which hath been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which hath been born of the Spirit is spirit.
Whatever is born of the flesh, is flesh; and whatever is born of the Spirit, is spirit.
7 'Thou mayest not wonder that I said to thee, It behoveth you to be born from above;
Wonder not that I have said to thee, that it behoves you to be born anew.
8 the Spirit where he willeth doth blow, and his voice thou dost hear, but thou hast not known whence he cometh, and whither he goeth; thus is every one who hath been born of the Spirit.'
The wind bloweth where she willeth, and her voice thou hearest; but thou knowest not whence she cometh, nor whither she goeth: so is every man who is born of the Spirit.
9 Nicodemus answered and said to him, 'How are these things able to happen?'
Nikodimos answered and said to him, How can these things be?
10 Jesus answered and said to him, 'Thou art the teacher of Israel — and these things thou dost not know!
Jeshu answered and said to him, Art thou Malphona of Israel, and these knowest not?
11 'Verily, verily, I say to thee — What we have known we speak, and what we have seen we testify, and our testimony ye do not receive;
Amen, amen, I say to thee, What we know we speak, and what we have seen we testify; but our testimony you receive not.
12 if the earthly things I said to you, and ye do not believe, how, if I shall say to you the heavenly things, will ye believe?
If of (what is) on earth I tell you, and you believe not, how if I tell you of (what is) in heaven, could you believe me?
13 and no one hath gone up to the heaven, except he who out of the heaven came down — the Son of Man who is in the heaven.
AND no man hath ascended into heaven, but he who descended from heaven, the Son of man, he who is in heaven.
14 'And as Moses did lift up the serpent in the wilderness, so it behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up,
And as Musha elevated the serpent in the wilderness, so is to be elevated the Son of man,
15 that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during, (aiōnios g166)
that every man who believeth in him might not perish, but have the life which is eternal. (aiōnios g166)
16 for God did so love the world, that His Son — the only begotten — He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during. (aiōnios g166)
For so loved Aloha the world, as his Son, the Only-begotten, he would give, that every one who believeth in him might not perish, but have the life which is eternal. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God did not send His Son to the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him;
For Aloha sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might live by him.
18 he who is believing in him is not judged, but he who is not believing hath been judged already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
He who believeth on him is not judged, and he who believeth not is judged already, because he believeth not in the name of the only-begotten Son of Aloha.
19 'And this is the judgment, that the light hath come to the world, and men did love the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil;
And this is the judgment, that the light hath come into the world, and the sons of men have loved darkness rather than the light, for their deeds have been evil.
20 for every one who is doing wicked things hateth the light, and doth not come unto the light, that his works may not be detected;
For every one who doeth abominable things hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 but he who is doing the truth doth come to the light, that his works may be manifested, that in God they are having been wrought.'
But he who doeth the truth cometh to the light, that his works may be known that in Aloha they are wrought.
22 After these things came Jesus and his disciples to the land of Judea, and there he did tarry with them, and was baptizing;
AFTER these came Jeshu and his disciples into the land of Jihuda, and there conversed with them and baptized.
23 and John was also baptizing in Aenon, nigh to Salem, because there were many waters there, and they were coming and were being baptized —
But Juchanon also was baptizing in Ein-yon, near Sholim, because the waters were there many; and they came and were baptized;
24 for John was not yet cast into the prison —
for not yet was Juchanon cast into the house of the bound.
25 there arose then a question from the disciples of John with [some] Jews about purifying,
But there was a question with some of the disciples of Juchanon (and) a certain Jihudoya, upon purification.
26 and they came unto John, and said to him, 'Rabbi, he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou didst testify, lo, this one is baptizing, and all are coming unto him.'
And they came to Juchanon, and said to him, Raban, he who was with thee at the passage of Jurdan, (and) concerning whom thou didst give witness, he also baptizeth, and many 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 the heaven;
Juchanon answered and said to them, A man cannot receive of his own will any thing, unless it be given to him from heaven.
28 ye yourselves do testify to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but, that I am having been sent before him;
You bear me witness that I said, I am not the Meshicha, but I am an apostle before him.
29 he who is having the bride is bridegroom, and the friend of the bridegroom, who is standing and hearing him, with joy doth rejoice because of the voice of the bridegroom; this, then, my joy hath been fulfilled.
He that hath the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who standeth and attendeth him, with great joy rejoiceth on account of the voice of the bridegroom: this my joy therefore, behold, is complete.
30 'Him it behoveth to increase, and me to become less;
To him it must be to increase, and to me to decrease.
31 he who from above is coming is above all; he who is from the earth, from the earth he is, and from the earth he speaketh; he who from the heaven is coming is above all.
For he who from above hath come, is above all; and he who is from the earth, is of the earth, and of the earth speaketh: he who from heaven hath come, is above all.
32 'And what he hath seen and heard this he doth testify, and his testimony none receiveth;
And what he hath seen and heard he testifieth, and his testimony no man receiveth.
33 he who is receiving his testimony did seal that God is true;
But he who hath received his testimony, hath sealed that the true Aloha is he.
34 for he whom God sent, the sayings of God he speaketh; for not by measure doth God give the Spirit;
For he whom Aloha hath sent, the very words of Aloha speaketh; for it was not in measure that Aloha gave the Spirit.
35 the Father doth love the Son, and all things hath given into his hand;
The Father loveth the Son, and every thing hath he given into his hands.
36 he who is believing in the Son, hath life age-during; and he who is not believing the Son, shall not see life, but the wrath of God doth remain upon him.' (aiōnios g166)
He who believeth in the Son hath the life which is eternal; and he who obeyeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of Aloha remaineth on him. (aiōnios g166)
