| |
| | Jhn 3:1 | And there was a man of the Farisees, Nychodeme bi name, a prince of the Jewis.
| |
| | Jhn 3:2 | And he cam to Jhesu bi niyt, and seide to hym, Rabi, we witen, that thou art comun fro God maister; for no man may do these signes, that thou doist, but God be with hym.
| |
| | Jhn 3:3 | Jhesus answerde, and seide to hym, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, but a man be borun ayen, he may not se the kyngdom of God.
| |
| | Jhn 3:4 | Nychodeme seide to hym, Hou may a man be borun, whanne he is eeld? whether he may entre ayen in to his modris wombe, and be borun ayen?
| |
| | Jhn 3:5 | Jhesus answeride, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, but a man be borun ayen of watir, and of the Hooli Goost, he may not entre in to the kyngdom of God.
| |
| | Jhn 3:6 | `That that is borun of the fleisch, is fleisch; and `that that is borun of spirit, is spirit.
| |
| | Jhn 3:7 | Wondre thou not, for Y seide to thee, It bihoueth you to be borun ayen.
| |
| | Jhn 3:8 | The spirit brethith where he wole, and thou herist his vois, but thou wost not, fro whennus he cometh, ne whidir he goith; so is ech man that is borun of the spirit.
| |
| | Jhn 3:9 | Nychodeme answeride, and seide to hym, Hou moun these thingis be don?
| |
| | Jhn 3:10 | Jhesus answeride, and seide to hym, Thou art a maister in Israel, and knowist not these thingis?
| |
| | Jhn 3:11 | Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, for we speken that that we witen, and we witnessen that that we han seyn, and ye taken not oure witnessyng.
| |
| | Jhn 3:12 | If Y haue seid to you ertheli thingis, and ye bileuen not, hou if Y seie to you heueneli thingis, schulen ye bileue?
| |
| | Jhn 3:13 | And no man stieth in to heuene, but he that cam doun fro heuene, mannys sone that is in heuene.
| |
| | Jhn 3:14 | And as Moises areride a serpent in desert, so it bihoueth mannys sone to be reisid,
| |
| | Jhn 3:15 | that ech man that bileueth in hym, perische not, but haue euerlastynge lijf.
| |
| | Jhn 3:16 | For God louede so the world, that he yaf his `oon bigetun sone, that ech man that bileueth in him perische not, but haue euerlastynge lijf.
| |
| | Jhn 3:17 | For God sente not his sone in to the world, that he iuge the world, but that the world be saued bi him.
| |
| | Jhn 3:18 | He that bileueth in hym, is not demed; but he that bileueth not, is now demed, for he bileueth not in the name of the `oon bigetun sone of God.
| |
| | Jhn 3:19 | And this is the dom, for liyt cam in to the world, and men loueden more derknessis than liyt; for her werkes weren yuele.
| |
| | Jhn 3:20 | For ech man that doith yuele, hatith the liyt; and he cometh not to the liyt, that hise werkis be not repreued.
| |
| | Jhn 3:21 | But he that doith treuthe, cometh to the liyt, that hise werkis be schewid, that thei ben don in God.
| |
| | Jhn 3:22 | Aftir these thingis Jhesus cam, and hise disciplis, in to the loond of Judee, and there he dwellide with hem, and baptiside.
| |
| | Jhn 3:23 | And Joon was baptisinge in Ennon, bisidis Salym, for many watris weren there; and thei camen, and weren baptisid.
| |
| | Jhn 3:24 | And Joon was not yit sent in to prisoun.
| |
| | Jhn 3:25 | Therfor a questioun was maad of Jonys disciplis with the Jewis, of the purificacioun.
| |
| | Jhn 3:26 | And thei camen to Joon, and seiden `to hym, Maister, he that was with thee biyonde Jordan, to whom thou hast borun witnessyng, lo! he baptisith, and alle men comen to hym.
| |
| | Jhn 3:27 | Joon answerde, and seide, A man may not take ony thing, but it be youun to hym fro heuene.
| |
| | Jhn 3:28 | Ye you silf beren witnessyng to me, that Y seide, Y am not Crist, but that Y am sent bifore hym.
| |
| | Jhn 3:29 | He that hath a wijf, is the hosebonde; but the freend of the spouse that stondith, and herith hym, ioieth with ioye, for the vois of the spouse. Therfor in this thing my ioye is fulfillid.
| |
| | Jhn 3:30 | It bihoueth hym to wexe, but me to be maad lesse.
| |
| | Jhn 3:31 | He that cam from aboue, is aboue alle; he that is of the erthe, spekith of the erthe; he that cometh from heuene, is aboue alle.
| |
| | Jhn 3:32 | And he witnessith that thing that he hath seie, and herde, and no man takith his witnessing.
| |
| | Jhn 3:33 | But he that takith his witnessyng, hath confermyd that God is sothefast.
| |
| | Jhn 3:34 | But he whom God hath sent, spekith the wordis of God; for not to mesure God yyueth the spirit.
| |
| | Jhn 3:35 | The fadir loueth the sone, and he hath youun alle thingis in his hoond.
| |
| | Jhn 3:36 | He that bileueth in the sone, hath euerlastynge lijf; but he that is vnbileueful to the sone, schal not se euerlastynge lijf, but the wraththe of God dwellith on hym.
