^63 (A)It is the Spirit who gives life; ^(B)the flesh is no help at all. ^(C)The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. ⁶⁴ But ^(D)there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus ^(E)knew from the beginning who those were who did not believe, and ^(F)who it was who would betray him.) ⁶⁵ And he said, “This is why I told you ^(G)that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.”
