rsv John:1:26-36
rsv@John:1:26 @ John answered them, "I baptize with water; but among you stands one whom you do not know,
rsv@John:1:27 @ even he who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie."
rsv@John:1:28 @ This took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
rsv@John:1:29 @ The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
rsv@John:1:30 @ This is he of whom I said, `After me comes a man who ranks before me, for he was before me.'
rsv@John:1:31 @ I myself did not know him; but for this I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel."
rsv@John:1:32 @ And John bore witness, "I saw the Spirit descend as a dove from heaven, and it remained on him.
rsv@John:1:33 @ I myself did not know him; but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, `He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'
rsv@John:1:34 @ And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son of God."
rsv@John:1:35 @ The next day again John was standing with two of his disciples;
rsv@John:1:36 @ and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!"
