John 1

29 Ref On the morrow he seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world!

30 Ref This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man who is become before me: for he was before me.

31 Ref And I knew him not; but that he should be made manifest to Israel, for this cause came I baptizing in water.

32 Ref And John bare witness, saying, I have beheld the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven; and it abode upon him.

33 Ref And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize in water, he said unto me, Upon whomsoever thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and abiding upon him, the same is he that baptizeth in the Holy Spirit.

34 Ref And I have seen, and have borne witness that this is the Son of God.

35 Ref Again on the morrow John was standing, and two of his disciples;

36 Ref and he looked upon Jesus as he walked, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God!

37 Ref And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

38 Ref And Jesus turned, and beheld them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? And they said unto him, Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), where abideth thou?

39 Ref He saith unto them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day: it was about the tenth hour.

40 Ref One of the two that heard John `speak', and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

41 Ref He findeth first his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being interpreted, Christ).

42 Ref He brought him unto Jesus. Jesus looked upon him, and said, Thou art Simon the son of John: thou shalt be called Cephas (which is by interpretation, Peter).

43 Ref On the morrow he was minded to go forth into Galilee, and he findeth Philip: and Jesus saith unto him, Follow me.

44 Ref Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.

45 Ref Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

46 Ref And Nathanael said unto him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

47 Ref Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

48 Ref Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

49 Ref Nathanael answered him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art King of Israel.

50 Ref Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee underneath the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

51 Ref And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
