요한복음 3장 Coverdale Bible
- 1 There was a man of the Pharises, named Nicodemus a ruler amoge the Iewes.
- 2 The same came vnto Iesus by night, & sayde vnto hi: Master, we knowe yt thou art come a teacher fro God: for no ma can do these tokes yt thou doest, excepte God be with him.
- 3 Iesus answered, and sayde vnto him: Verely verely I saye vnto the: Excepte a man be borne a new, he can not se the kyngdome of God.
- 4 Nicodemus sayde vnto him: How can a man be borne, whan he is olde? Can he entre into his mothers wombe, and be borne agayne?
- 5 Iesus answered: Verely verely I saye vnto the: Excepte a ma be borne of water and of the sprete, he can not come in to ye kyngdome of God.
- 6 That which is borne of flesh, is flesh: & that which is borne of the sprete, is sprete.
- 7 Maruell not, that I sayde vnto ye: Ye must be borne of new.
- 8 The wynde bloweth where he wyl, and thou hearest his sounde: but thou canst not tell whece he commeth, and whither he goeth. So is euery one, that is borne of the sprete.
- 9 Nicodemus answered, and sayde vnto him: How maye these be?
- 10 Iesus answered, & sayde vnto hi: Art thou a Master in Israel, & knowest not these?
- 11 Verely I saye vnto ye: We speake that we knowe, and testifie that we haue sene, and ye receaue not oure wytnesse.
- 12 Yf ye beleue not whan I tell you of earthly thinges, how shulde ye beleue, wha I speake vnto you of heauenly thinges?
- 13 And no man ascendeth vp in to heauen, but he that is come downe from heaue, (namely) the sonne of man which is in heauen.
- 14 And like as Moses lift vp the serpent in the wyldernes, euen so must the sonne of man be lift vp,
- 15 that who so euer beleueth in him, shulde not perish, but haue euerlastinge life.
- 16 For God so loued the worlde, that he gaue his onely sonne, that who so euer beleueth in hi, shulde not perishe, but haue euerlastinge life.
- 17 For God sent not his sonne in to ye worlde to condempne the worlde, but that the worlde might be saued by him.
- 18 He that beleueth on him, shal not be codemned. But he that beleueth not, is codemned allready: because he beleueth not on the name of the onely sonne of God.
- 19 But this is ye codempnacion, that the light is come in to the worlde, and men loued the darknesse more the ye light: for their workes were euell.
- 20 Whosoeuer doth euell, hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, that his dedes shulde not be reproued.
- 21 But he that doth the trueth, commeth to the light, that his workes maye be knowne: for they are done in God.
- 22 Afterwarde came Iesus & his disciples in to the lode of Iewry, and had his beynge there with them, and baptysed
- 23 Ihon baptysed also in Enon besyde Salem: for there was moch water there. And they came thither, and were baptysed:
- 24 for Iohn was not yet put in preson.
- 25 Then arose there a question amonge the disciples of Ihon with the Iewes aboute the purifienge,
- 26 and they came vnto Ihon, and sayde vnto him: Master, he yt was with the beyonde Iordan, of whom thou barest wytnesse, beholde, he baptyseth, and euery man cometh vnto him.
- 27 Ihon answered and sayde: A man can receaue nothinge, excepte it be geuen him from heaue.
- 28 Ye youreselues are my witnesses, how that I sayde, I am not Christ, but am sent before him.
- 29 He that hath the bryde, is the brydegrome: but the frende of the brydegrome stondeth, and herkeneth vnto him, and reioyseth greatly ouer the voyce of the brydegrome, this same ioye of myne is now fulfilled.
- 30 He must increace, but I must decreace.
- 31 He that commeth from an hye, is aboue all. He that is of the earth, is earthly, and speaketh of the earth. He that commeth fro heauen, is aboue all,
- 32 and testifieth what he hath sene & herde, and no man receaueth his wytnesse.
- 33 But he that receaueth it, hath set to his seale, that God is true.
- 34 For he who God hath sent, speaketh ye wordes of God: for God geueth not the sprete (vnto him) by measure.
- 35 The father loueth the sonne, and hath geuen him all thinges in to his hande.
- 36 He that beleueth on the sonne, hath euerlastinge life: he that beleueth not the sonne, shal not se the life, but ye wrath of God abydeth vpon him.
