John 1:30-34

English Standard Version

³⁰ This is he of whom I said, ^(A)‘After me comes a man who ranks before me, because he was before me.’ ³¹ I myself did not know him, but ^(B)for this purpose I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel.” ³² And John ^(C)bore witness: ^(D)“I saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove, and ^(E)it remained on him. ³³ I myself did not know him, but ^(F)he who sent me to baptize ^(G)with water said to me, ‘He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, ^(H)this is he who baptizes ^(I)with the Holy Spirit.’ ³⁴ And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son^[a] of God.”
