约翰福音 3
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
耶稣与尼哥迪慕论重生
3 有一个法利赛人,名叫尼哥迪慕,是犹太人的官。 2 这人夜里来见耶稣,说:“拉比,我们知道你是由神那里来做师傅的,因为你所行的神迹,若没有神同在,无人能行。” 3 耶稣回答说:“我实实在在地告诉你:人若不重生,就不能见神的国。” 4 尼哥迪慕说:“人已经老了,如何能重生呢?岂能再进母腹生出来吗?” 5 耶稣说:“我实实在在地告诉你:人若不是从水和圣灵生的,就不能进神的国。 6 从肉身生的就是肉身,从灵生的就是灵。 7 我说你们必须重生,你不要以为稀奇。 8 风随着意思吹,你听见风的响声,却不晓得从哪里来,往哪里去。凡从圣灵生的,也是如此。” 9 尼哥迪慕问他说:“怎能有这事呢?” 10 耶稣回答说:“你是以色列人的先生,还不明白这事吗? 11 我实实在在地告诉你:我们所说的是我们知道的,我们所见证的是我们见过的,你们却不领受我们的见证。 12 我对你们说地上的事,你们尚且不信,若说天上的事,如何能信呢? 13 除了从天降下仍旧在天的人子,没有人升过天。 14 摩西在旷野怎样举蛇,人子也必照样被举起来, 15 叫一切信他的都得永生[a]。
神爱世人
16 “神爱世人,甚至将他的独生子赐给他们,叫一切信他的不致灭亡,反得永生。 17 因为神差他的儿子降世,不是要定世人的罪[b],乃是要叫世人因他得救。 18 信他的人不被定罪,不信的人罪已经定了,因为他不信神独生子的名。
作恶的恨光
19 “光来到世间,世人因自己的行为是恶的,不爱光倒爱黑暗,定他们的罪就是在此。 20 凡作恶的便恨光,并不来就光,恐怕他的行为受责备; 21 但行真理的必来就光,要显明他所行的是靠神而行。”
耶稣和约翰施洗
22 这事以后,耶稣和门徒到了犹太地,在那里居住,施洗。 23 约翰在靠近撒冷的哀嫩也施洗,因为那里水多,众人都去受洗。 24 那时约翰还没有下在监里。 25 约翰的门徒和一个犹太人辩论洁净的礼, 26 就来见约翰,说:“拉比,从前同你在约旦河外、你所见证的那位,现在施洗,众人都往他那里去了。” 27 约翰说:“若不是从天上赐的,人就不能得什么。 28 我曾说我不是基督,是奉差遣在他前面的,你们自己可以给我作见证。 29 娶新妇的就是新郎,新郎的朋友站着,听见新郎的声音就甚喜乐。故此,我这喜乐满足了。 30 他必兴旺,我必衰微。”
信者能得永生
31 从天上来的是在万有之上,从地上来的是属乎地,他所说的也是属乎地。从天上来的是在万有之上, 32 他将所见所闻的见证出来,只是没有人领受他的见证。 33 那领受他见证的,就印上印,证明神是真的。 34 神所差来的就说神的话,因为神赐圣灵给他是没有限量的。 35 父爱子,已将万有交在他手里。 36 信子的人有永生,不信子的人得不着永生[c],神的震怒常在他身上。
約 翰 福 音 3
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
耶稣与尼哥底母
3 有个法利赛人,名叫尼哥底母,他是犹太人的一位首领。 2 夜里,他来见耶稣,说∶“拉比(老师),我们知道您是来自上帝的老师,因为假如上帝不与您同在,没人能行您行的神迹。”
3 耶稣回答道∶“我实话告诉你,如果一个人不重生,就不能在上帝的王国占有一席之地。”
4 尼哥底母说∶“一个人老了,怎么能重生呢?他自然不可能第二次投胎再生了!”
5 耶稣回答说∶“我实话告诉你,如果一个人不从水和灵中出生,他就不能进入上帝的王国; 6 从肉体出生的是肉体;从灵出生的是灵。 7 所以,当我告诉你∶‘你们必须重生’时,你不必感到奇怪。 8 风任随它意吹拂,你可以听到风声,却不知它从哪儿来,到哪儿去。由圣灵所生的人也是如此。”
9 尼哥底母问∶“怎么会是这样的呢?”
10 耶稣回答说∶“你是以色列人的老师,难道你也不明白吗? 11 我实话告诉你,我们说的是我们知道的,我们讲的是我们所见的,但是你们却不接受我们的证言。 12 我告诉你们尘世上的事情,你们不相信,那么,如果我告诉你们天上的事情,你们又怎么能相信呢? 13 除了从天降临的那位-人子之外,没有人升过天。
14 正如摩西在旷野里举起蛇一样,人子也必照样被举起, 15 目的是让所有信仰他的人得到永生。”
16 因为,上帝非常爱世人,他甚至献出了自己唯一的儿子,以便使每一个信仰他(儿子)的人不会灭亡,而获永生。 17 上帝派他的儿子到世上来,不是为了给世人定罪,而是要通过他使世人得到拯救。 18 凡是信仰他的人,都不会被定罪,不信仰他的人已被定罪,因为他们不信仰上帝唯一的儿子。 19 定罪的事实是:光明已来到这个世界,可是人们却情愿要黑暗,而不要光明,因为他们做的事是邪恶的。 20 凡是干坏事的人都憎恨光明。他不到光明里来,免得他的劣迹被暴露。 21 但是,那些遵循真理的人到光明里来,光明使他们通过上帝做过的工作显示的清清楚楚。 [a]
耶稣与施洗者约翰
22 此后,耶稣和门徒们来到犹太地区,他在那里和他们共度时光,为人们施洗礼。 23 约翰在撒冷附近的哀嫩也为人们施洗礼,因为那里水很多。人们不断地来到约翰那里,接受洗礼, 24 (那时,约翰还没有被关进监狱。)
25 当时,约翰的门徒和一个犹太人针对洁净仪式一事发生了争论, 26 他们来到约翰那里,对他说∶“拉比(老师),从前在约旦河对岸和您在一起的那个人,也就是您为他作证的那个人,现在正给人们施洗礼呢,人们都纷纷到他那里去了。”
27 约翰回答说∶“除非上天所赐,否则,人不会领受到任何事情。 28 你们自己可以证明我说过∶‘我不是基督,我只不过是在他之前被派来的。’ 29 和新娘结婚的是新郎,但是,新郎的傧相等在那里,倾听新郎的动静。他一听见新郎的的声音,就非常高兴。我现在充满了快乐, 30 他必须变得越来越伟大,我必须变得越来越渺小。”
来自天上的那位
31 “来自天上的他高于一切,来自尘世的属于尘世,他所说的一切也都来自尘世。但是来自天堂的他高于一切。
32 他证明了自己的所见所闻,但是,却没有人愿意接受他的见证。 33 接受基督见证的人证明了上帝是真实的。 34 因为上帝派来的他(耶稣),说上帝说的话。上帝赐给他的灵 [b]是无限的。 35 父爱他的儿子,把一切都交到了他的手中。 36 信仰圣子的人得以永生,不服从圣子的人将看不到永生,相反,上帝的愤怒会始终伴随着他。

John 3
New King James Version
The New Birth
3 There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 (A)This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for (B)no one can do these signs that You do unless (C)God is with him.”
3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, (D)unless one is born [a]again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
4 Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, (E)unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is (F)flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ 8 (G)The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
9 Nicodemus answered and said to Him, (H)“How can these things be?”
10 Jesus answered and said to him, “Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things? 11 (I)Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and (J)you do not receive Our witness. 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? 13 (K)No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man [b]who is in heaven. 14 (L)And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so (M)must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever (N)believes in Him should [c]not perish but (O)have eternal life. 16 (P)For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten (Q)Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 (R)For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18 (S)“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, (T)that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For (U)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 (V)done in God.”
John the Baptist Exalts Christ
22 After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them (W)and baptized. 23 Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near (X)Salim, because there was much water there. (Y)And they came and were baptized. 24 For (Z)John had not yet been thrown into prison.
25 Then there arose a dispute between some of John’s disciples and the Jews about purification. 26 And they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, (AA)to whom you have testified—behold, He is baptizing, and all (AB)are coming to Him!”
27 John answered and said, (AC)“A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven. 28 You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, (AD)‘I am not the Christ,’ but, (AE)‘I have been sent before Him.’ 29 (AF)He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but (AG)the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled. 30 (AH)He must increase, but I must decrease. 31 (AI)He who comes from above (AJ)is above all; (AK)he who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of the earth. (AL)He who comes from heaven is above all. 32 And (AM)what He has seen and heard, that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony. 33 He who has received His testimony (AN)has certified that God is true. 34 (AO)For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit (AP)by measure. 35 (AQ)The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand. 36 (AR)He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the (AS)wrath of God abides on him.”
