John 1:37-45
New American Standard Bible
37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. 38 And Jesus turned and saw them following, and *said to them, “What are you seeking?” They said to Him, “(A)Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?” 39 He *said to them, “Come, and you will see.” So they came and saw where He was staying, and they stayed with Him that day; it was about the [a]tenth hour. 40 (B)One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. 41 He first *found his own brother Simon and *said to him, “We have found the (C)Messiah” (which translated means [b]Christ). 42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of [c](D)John; you shall be called (E)Cephas” (which is translated [d](F)Peter).
43 (G)The next day He [e]decided to go to (H)Galilee, and He *found (I)Philip. And Jesus *said to him, “(J)Follow Me.” 44 Now (K)Philip was from (L)Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 (M)Philip *found (N)Nathanael and *said to him, “We have found Him of whom (O)Moses wrote in the Law, and (P)the prophets also wrote: Jesus (Q)the son of Joseph, from (R)Nazareth!”

John 1:37-45
New International Version
37 When the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus. 38 Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked, “What do you want?”
They said, “Rabbi”(A) (which means “Teacher”), “where are you staying?”
39 “Come,” he replied, “and you will see.”
So they went and saw where he was staying, and they spent that day with him. It was about four in the afternoon.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. 41 The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ).(B) 42 And he brought him to Jesus.
Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called(C) Cephas” (which, when translated, is Peter[a]).(D)
Jesus Calls Philip and Nathanael
43 The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip,(E) he said to him, “Follow me.”(F)
44 Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida.(G) 45 Philip found Nathanael(H) and told him, “We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law,(I) and about whom the prophets also wrote(J)—Jesus of Nazareth,(K) the son of Joseph.”(L)
