John 3:28-30

English Standard Version

²⁸ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, ^(A)‘I am not the Christ, but ^(B)I have been sent before him.’ ^29 (C)The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. ^(D)The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, ^(E)rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete. ^30 (F)He must increase, but I must decrease.”^[a]
