13 (A)No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man [a]who is in heaven. 14 (B)And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so (C)must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever (D)believes in Him should [b]not perish but (E)have eternal life. 16 (F)For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten (G)Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 (H)For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

18 (I)“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, (J)that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For (K)everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been (L)done in God.”

13 και ουδεις αναβεβηκεν εις τον ουρανον ει μη ο εκ του ουρανου καταβας ο υιος του ανθρωπου ο ων εν τω ουρανω

14 και καθως μωσης υψωσεν τον οφιν εν τη ερημω ουτως υψωθηναι δει τον υιον του ανθρωπου

15 ινα πας ο πιστευων εις αυτον μη αποληται αλλ εχη ζωην αιωνιον

16 ουτως γαρ ηγαπησεν ο θεος τον κοσμον ωστε τον υιον αυτου τον μονογενη εδωκεν ινα πας ο πιστευων εις αυτον μη αποληται αλλ εχη ζωην αιωνιον

17 ου γαρ απεστειλεν ο θεος τον υιον αυτου εις τον κοσμον ινα κρινη τον κοσμον αλλ ινα σωθη ο κοσμος δι αυτου

18 ο πιστευων εις αυτον ου κρινεται ο δε μη πιστευων ηδη κεκριται οτι μη πεπιστευκεν εις το ονομα του μονογενους υιου του θεου

19 αυτη δε εστιν η κρισις οτι το φως εληλυθεν εις τον κοσμον και ηγαπησαν οι ανθρωποι μαλλον το σκοτος η το φως ην γαρ πονηρα αυτων τα εργα

20 πας γαρ ο φαυλα πρασσων μισει το φως και ουκ ερχεται προς το φως ινα μη ελεγχθη τα εργα αυτου

21 ο δε ποιων την αληθειαν ερχεται προς το φως ινα φανερωθη αυτου τα εργα οτι εν θεω εστιν ειργασμενα

13 (A)No one has ascended into heaven, except (B)He who descended from heaven: (C)the Son of Man. 14 And just as (D)Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must (E)the Son of Man (F)be lifted up, 15 so that everyone who [a]believes will (G)have eternal life in Him.

16 “For God so (H)loved the world, that He (I)gave His (J)only Son, so that everyone who (K)believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. 17 For God (L)did not send the Son into the world (M)to judge the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him. 18 (N)The one who believes in Him is not judged; the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of (O)the only Son of God. 19 And this is the judgment, that (P)the Light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the Light; for (Q)their deeds were evil. 20 (R)For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light, so that his deeds will not be exposed. 21 But the one who (S)practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds will be revealed [b]as having been performed in God.”
