1Was and a man of the Pharisees, Nicodemus a name to him, a ruler of the Jews; 2this came to him by night, and said to him: Rabbi, we know that from God thou hast come a teacher; no one for these the signs is able to do, which thou doest, except may be the God with him. 3Answered the Jesus and said to him: Indeed indeed I say to thee, if not any one may be born from above, not is able to see the kingdom of the God. 4Says to him the Nicodemus: How is able a man to be born old being? not is able into the womb of the mother of himself a second time to enter, and to be born? 5Answered Jesus: Indeed indeed I say to thee, if not any one may be born out of water and spirit, not is able to enter into the kingdom of the God. 6That having been born out of the flesh, flesh is; and that having been born out of the spirit, a spirit is. 7Not thou mayest wonder, that I said to thee: Must you to be born from above. 8The spirit where it wills breathes; and the sound of it thou hearest, but not thou knowest, whence it comes, and where it goes; thus is every one the having been born out of of the spirit. 9Answered Nicodemus and said to him: How is able these to be? 10Answered Jesus and said to him: Thou art the teacher of the Israel, and these not thou knowest? 11Indeed indeed I say to thee, that which we know we speak, and what we have seen we testify; and the testimony of us not you receive. 12If the things earthly I told you, and not you believed; how, I tell you the things heavenly, will you believe? 13And no one has ascended into the heaven, except he out of the heaven having descended, the son of the man, the being in the heaven. 14And even as Moses raised aloft the serpent in the desert, thus to be raised it behooves the son of the man; 15that every one who believing into him, not may be destroyed, but may have life age–lasting. 16Thus for loved the God the world, so that the son of himself the only–begotten he gave, that every one who believing into him, not may be destroyed, but may have life age–lasting. 17Not for sent the God the son of himself into the world, that he might judge the world, but that might be saved the world through him. 18He believing into him, not is judged; he but not believing, already is judged, became not he has believed into the name of the only–begotten son of the God. 19This and is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and loved the man rather the darkness, than the light; was for evil of them the works. 20Every one for the vile things doing, hates the light, and not comes to the light, that not may be detected the works of him. 21He but doing the truth comes to the light, so that may be made manifest of him the works, that in God it is having been done. 22After these came the Jesus and the disciples of him into the Judean land; and there remained with them, and was dipping. 23Was and also John dipping in Enon, near the Salim, because waters many was there; and they were coming, and were being dipped. 24Not yet for was having been cast into the prison the John. 25Occurred then a disciple of the disciples of John with a Jew about cleansing. 26And they came to the John, and said to him: Rabbi, who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou has testified, behold, he dips, and all come to him. 27Answered John and said: Not is able a man to receive nothing, except it may be having been given to him from the heaven. 28Yourselves you to me bear testimony, that I said: Not am I the Anointed, but that having been sent I am in presence of him. 29He having the bride, a bridegroom is; the but friend of the bridegroom, that standing and hearing him, with joy rejoices through the voices of the bridegroom. This therefore the joy that of me has been completed. 30Him it behooves to increase, me but to increase. 31He from above coming, over all is. He being from the earth, from the earth is, and from the earth speaks; he from the heaven coming, over all is, 32and what he has seen and heard, this he testifies; and the testimony of him no one receives. 33He receiving of him the testimony, has set his seal, that the God true is. 34Whom for has sent the God, the words of the God speaks; not for by measure gives the God the spirit. 35The Father loves the son, and all has been given in the hand of him. 36He believing into the son, has life age–lasting; he but disobeying the son, not shall see life, but the anger of the God abides on him.
