John 3
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
5 Ref Jesus said in answer, Truly, I say to you, If a man's birth is not from water and from the Spirit, it is not possible for him to go into the kingdom of God.
6 Ref That which has birth from the flesh is flesh, and that which has birth from the Spirit is spirit.
7 Ref Do not be surprised that I say to you, It is necessary for you to have a second birth.
8 Ref The wind goes where its pleasure takes it, and the sound of it comes to your ears, but you are unable to say where it comes from and where it goes: so it is with everyone whose birth is from the Spirit.
King James Version (KJV)
5 Ref Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 Ref That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Ref Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
8 Ref The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
