John:3-4
Seeker Overlay ON
*
There was (
5713 )
a man of the Pharisees ,
named Nicodemus ,
a ruler of the Jews :
*
The same came (
5627 )
to Jesus by night ,
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Rabbi ,
we know (
5758 )
that thou art a teacher come (
5754 )
from God :
for no man can (
5736 )
do (
5721 )
these miracles that thou doest (
5719 ),
except God be (
5753 )
with him .
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Verily ,
verily ,
I say (
5719 )
unto thee ,
Except a man be born (
5686 )
again ,
he cannot (
5736 )
see (
5629 )
the kingdom of God .
*
Nicodemus saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
How can (
5736 )
a man be born (
5683 )
when he is (
5752 )
old ?
can (
5736 )
he enter (
5629 )
the second time into his mothers womb ,
and be born (
5683 )?
*
Jesus answered (
5662 ),
Verily ,
verily ,
I say (
5719 )
unto thee ,
Except a man be born (
5686 )
of water and of the Spirit ,
he cannot (
5736 )
enter (
5629 )
into the kingdom of God .
*
That which is born (
5772 )
of the flesh is (
5748 )
flesh ;
and that which is born (
5772 )
of the Spirit is (
5748 )
spirit .
*
Marvel (
5661 )
not that I said (
5627 )
unto thee ,
Ye must (
5748 )
be born (
5683 )
again .
*
The wind bloweth (
5719 )
where it listeth (
5719 ),
and thou hearest (
5719 )
the sound thereof ,
but canst not tell (
5758 )
whence it cometh (
5736 ),
and whither it goeth (
5719 ):
so is (
5748 )
every one that is born (
5772 )
of the Spirit .
*
Nicodemus answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
How can (
5736 )
these things be (
5635 )?
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Art (
5748 )
thou a master of Israel ,
and knowest (
5719 )
not these things ?
*
Verily ,
verily ,
I say (
5719 )
unto thee ,
We speak (
5719 )
that we do know (
5758 ),
and testify (
5719 )
that we have seen (
5758 );
and ye receive (
5719 )
not our witness .
*
If I have told (
5627 )
you earthly things ,
and ye believe (
5719 )
not ,
how shall ye believe (
5692 ),
if I tell (
5632 )
you of heavenly things ?
*
And no man hath ascended up (
5758 )
to heaven ,
but he that came down (
5631 )
from heaven ,
even the Son of man which is (
5752 )
in heaven .
*
And as Moses lifted up (
5656 )
the serpent in the wilderness ,
even so must (
5748 )
the Son of man be lifted up (
5683 ):
*
That whosoever believeth (
5723 )
in him should not perish (
5643 ),
but have (
5725 )
eternal life .
*
For God so loved (
5656 )
the world ,
that he gave (
5656 )
his only begotten Son ,
that whosoever believeth (
5723 )
in him should not perish (
5643 ),
but have (
5725 )
everlasting life .
*
For God sent (
5656 )
not his Son into the world to condemn (
5725 )
the world ;
but that the world through him might be saved (
5686 ).
*
He that believeth (
5723 )
on him is not condemned (
5743 ):
but he that believeth (
5723 )
not is condemned (
5769 )
already ,
because he hath not believed (
5758 )
in the name of the only begotten Son of God .
*
And this is (
5748 )
the condemnation ,
that light is come (
5754 )
into the world ,
and men loved (
5656 )
darkness rather than light ,
because their deeds were (
5713 )
evil .
*
For every one that doeth (
5723 )
evil hateth (
5719 )
the light ,
neither cometh (
5736 )
to the light ,
lest his deeds should be reproved (
5686 ).
*
But he that doeth (
5723 )
truth cometh (
5736 )
to the light ,
that his deeds may be made manifest (
5686 ),
that they are (
5748 )
wrought (
5772 )
in God .
*
After these things came (
5627 )
Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea ;
and there he tarried (
5707 )
with them ,
and baptized (
5707 ).
*
And John also was (
5713 )
baptizing (
5723 )
in Aenon near to Salim ,
because there was (
5713 )
much water there :
and they came (
5708 ),
and were baptized (
5712 ).
*
For John was (
5713 )
not yet cast (
5772 )
into prison .
*
Then there arose (
5633 )
a question between some of Johns disciples and the Jews about purifying .
*
And they came (
5627 )
unto John ,
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Rabbi ,
he that was (
5713 )
with thee beyond Jordan ,
to whom thou barest witness (
5758 ),
behold ,
the same baptizeth (
5719 ),
and all men come (
5736 )
to him .
*
John answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 ),
A man can (
5736 )
receive (
5721 )
nothing ,
except it be (
5753 )
given (
5772 )
him from heaven .
*
Ye yourselves bear me witness (
5719 ),
that I said (
5627 ),
I am (
5748 )
not the Christ ,
but that I am (
5748 )
sent (
5772 )
before him .
*
He that hath (
5723 )
the bride is (
5748 )
the bridegroom :
but the friend of the bridegroom ,
which standeth (
5761 )
and heareth (
5723 )
him ,
rejoiceth (
5719 )
greatly because of the bridegrooms voice :
this my joy therefore is fulfilled (
5769 ).
*
He must (
5748 )
increase (
5721 ),
but I must decrease (
5745 ).
*
He that cometh (
5740 )
from above is (
5748 )
above all :
he that is (
5752 )
of the earth is (
5748 )
earthly ,
and speaketh (
5719 )
of the earth :
he that cometh (
5740 )
from heaven is (
5748 )
above all .
*
And what he hath seen (
5758 )
and heard (
5656 ),
that he testifieth (
5719 );
and no man receiveth (
5719 )
his testimony .
*
He that hath received (
5631 )
his testimony hath set to his seal (
5656 )
that God is (
5748 )
true .
*
For he whom God hath sent (
5656 )
speaketh (
5719 )
the words of God :
for God giveth (
5719 )
not the Spirit by measure unto him .
*
The Father loveth (
5719 )
the Son ,
and hath given (
5758 )
all things into his hand .
*
He that believeth (
5723 )
on the Son hath (
5719 )
everlasting life :
and he that believeth not (
5723 )
the Son shall not see (
5695 )
life ;
but the wrath of God abideth (
5719 )
on him .
*
When therefore the Lord knew (
5627 )
how the Pharisees had heard (
5656 )
that Jesus made (
5719 )
and baptized (
5719 )
more disciples than John ,
* (
Though Jesus himself baptized (
5707 )
not ,
but his disciples ,)
*
He left (
5656 )
Judaea ,
and departed (
5627 )
again into Galilee .
*
And he must needs (
5713 )
go (
5738 )
through Samaria .
*
Then cometh he (
5736 )
to a city of Samaria ,
which is called (
5746 )
Sychar ,
near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave (
5656 )
to his son Joseph .
*
Now Jacobs well was (
5713 )
there .
Jesus therefore ,
being wearied (
5761 )
with his journey ,
sat (
5711 )
thus on the well :
and it was (
5713 )
about the sixth hour .
*
There cometh (
5736 )
a woman of Samaria to draw (
5658 )
water :
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto her ,
Give (
5628 )
me to drink (
5629 ).
* (
For his disciples were gone away (
5715 )
unto the city to buy (
5661 )
meat .)
*
Then saith (
5719 )
the woman of Samaria unto him ,
How is it that thou ,
being (
5752 )
a Jew ,
askest (
5719 )
drink (
5629 )
of me ,
which am (
5752 )
a woman of Samaria ?
for the Jews have no dealings (
5736 )
with the Samaritans .
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 )
unto her ,
If thou knewest (
5715 )
the gift of God ,
and who it is (
5748 )
that saith (
5723 )
to thee ,
Give (
5628 )
me to drink (
5629 );
thou wouldest have asked (
5656 )
of him ,
and he would have given (
5656 )
thee living (
5723 )
water .
*
The woman saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Sir ,
thou hast (
5719 )
nothing to draw with ,
and the well is (
5748 )
deep :
from whence then hast thou (
5719 )
that living (
5723 )
water ?
*
Art (
5748 )
thou greater than our father Jacob ,
which gave (
5656 )
us the well ,
and drank (
5627 )
thereof himself ,
and his children ,
and his cattle ?
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 )
unto her ,
Whosoever drinketh (
5723 )
of this water shall thirst (
5692 )
again :
*
But whosoever drinketh (
5632 )
of the water that I shall give (
5692 )
him shall never thirst (
5661 );
but the water that I shall give (
5692 )
him shall be (
5695 )
in him a well of water springing up (
5740 )
into everlasting life .
*
The woman saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Sir ,
give (
5628 )
me this water ,
that I thirst (
5725 )
not ,
neither come (
5741 )
hither to draw (
5721 ).
*
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto her ,
Go (
5720 ),
call (
5657 )
thy husband ,
and come (
5628 )
hither .
*
The woman answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 ),
I have (
5719 )
no husband .
Jesus said (
5719 )
unto her ,
Thou hast well said (
5627 ),
I have (
5719 )
no husband :
*
For thou hast had (
5627 )
five husbands ;
and he whom thou now hast (
5719 )
is (
5748 )
not thy husband :
in that saidst thou (
5758 )
truly .
*
The woman saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Sir ,
I perceive (
5719 )
that thou art (
5748 )
a prophet .
*
Our fathers worshipped (
5656 )
in this mountain ;
and ye say (
5719 ),
that in Jerusalem is (
5748 )
the place where men ought (
5748 )
to worship (
5721 ).
*
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto her ,
Woman ,
believe (
5657 )
me ,
the hour cometh (
5736 ),
when ye shall neither in this mountain ,
nor yet at Jerusalem ,
worship (
5692 )
the Father .
*
Ye worship (
5719 )
ye know (
5758 )
not what :
we know (
5758 )
what we worship (
5719 ):
for salvation is (
5748 )
of the Jews .
*
But the hour cometh (
5736 ),
and now is (
5748 ),
when the true worshippers shall worship (
5692 )
the Father in spirit and in truth :
for the Father seeketh (
5719 )
such to worship (
5723 )
him .
*
God is a Spirit :
and they that worship (
5723 )
him must (
5748 )
worship (
5721 )
him in spirit and in truth .
*
The woman saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
I know (
5758 )
that Messias cometh (
5736 ),
which is called (
5746 )
Christ :
when he is come (
5632 ),
he will tell (
5692 )
us all things .
*
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto her ,
I that speak (
5723 )
unto thee am (
5748 )
he .
*
And upon this came (
5627 )
his disciples ,
and marvelled (
5656 )
that he talked (
5707 )
with the woman :
yet no man said (
5627 ),
What seekest thou (
5719 )?
or ,
Why talkest thou (
5719 )
with her ?
*
The woman then left (
5656 )
her waterpot ,
and went her way (
5627 )
into the city ,
and saith (
5719 )
to the men ,
*
Come (
5773 ),
see (
5628 )
a man ,
which told (
5627 )
me all things that ever I did (
5656 ):
is (
5748 )
not this the Christ ?
*
Then they went (
5627 )
out of the city ,
and came (
5711 )
unto him .
*
In the mean while his disciples prayed (
5707 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Master ,
eat (
5628 ).
*
But he said (
5627 )
unto them ,
I have (
5719 )
meat to eat (
5629 )
that ye know not of (
5758 ).
*
Therefore said (
5707 )
the disciples one to another ,
Hath any man brought (
5656 )
him ought to eat (
5629 )?
*
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto them ,
My meat is (
5748 )
to do (
5725 )
the will of him that sent (
5660 )
me ,
and to finish (
5661 )
his work .
*
Say (
5719 )
not ye ,
There are (
5748 )
yet four months ,
and then cometh (
5736 )
harvest ?
behold (
5628 ),
I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Lift up (
5657 )
your eyes ,
and look on (
5663 )
the fields ;
for they are (
5748 )
white already to harvest .
*
And he that reapeth (
5723 )
receiveth (
5719 )
wages ,
and gathereth (
5719 )
fruit unto life eternal :
that both he that soweth (
5723 )
and he that reapeth (
5723 )
may rejoice (
5725 )
together .
*
And herein is (
5748 )
that saying true ,
One soweth (
5748 ) (
5723 ),
and another reapeth (
5723 ).
*
I sent (
5656 )
you to reap (
5721 )
that whereon ye bestowed no labour (
5758 ):
other men laboured (
5758 ),
and ye are entered (
5754 )
into their labours .
*
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed (
5656 )
on him for the saying of the woman ,
which testified (
5723 ),
He told (
5627 )
me all that ever I did (
5656 ).
*
So when the Samaritans were come (
5627 )
unto him ,
they besought (
5707 )
him that he would tarry (
5658 )
with them :
and he abode (
5656 )
there two days .
*
And many more believed (
5656 )
because of his own word ;
*
And said (
5707 )
unto the woman ,
Now we believe (
5719 ),
not because of thy saying :
for we have heard (
5754 )
him ourselves ,
and know (
5758 )
that this is (
5748 )
indeed the Christ ,
the Saviour of the world .
*
Now after two days he departed (
5627 ) (
5627 )
thence ,
and went into Galilee .
*
For Jesus himself testified (
5656 ),
that a prophet hath (
5719 )
no honour in his own country .
*
Then when he was come (
5627 )
into Galilee ,
the Galilaeans received (
5662 )
him ,
having seen (
5761 )
all the things that he did (
5656 )
at Jerusalem at the feast :
for they also went (
5627 )
unto the feast .
*
So Jesus came (
5627 )
again into Cana of Galilee ,
where he made (
5656 )
the water wine .
And there was (
5713 )
a certain nobleman ,
whose son was sick (
5707 )
at Capernaum .
*
When he heard (
5660 )
that Jesus was come (
5719 )
out of Judaea into Galilee ,
he went (
5627 )
unto him ,
and besought (
5707 )
him that he would come down (
5632 ),
and heal (
5667 )
his son :
for he was at the point (
5707 )
of death (
5721 ).
*
Then said (
5627 )
Jesus unto him ,
Except ye see (
5632 )
signs and wonders ,
ye will not believe (
5661 ).
*
The nobleman saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Sir ,
come down (
5628 )
ere my child die (
5629 ).
*
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Go thy way (
5737 );
thy son liveth (
5719 ).
And the man believed (
5656 )
the word that Jesus had spoken (
5627 )
unto him ,
and he went his way (
5711 ).
*
And as he was now going down (
5723 ),
his servants met (
5656 )
him ,
and told (
5656 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Thy son liveth (
5719 ).
*
Then enquired he (
5633 )
of them the hour when he began (
5627 )
to amend .
And they said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left (
5656 )
him .
*
So the father knew (
5627 )
that it was at the same hour ,
in the which Jesus said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Thy son liveth (
5719 ):
and himself believed (
5656 ),
and his whole house .
*
This is again the second miracle that Jesus did (
5656 ),
when he was come out (
5631 )
of Judaea into Galilee .
*
After this there was (
5713 )
a feast of the Jews ;
and Jesus went up (
5627 )
to Jerusalem .
