26 They came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, the one who was with you across the Jordan, to whom you testified, here he is baptizing, and all are going to him.”(A) 27 John answered, “No one can receive anything except what has been given from heaven.(B) 28 You yourselves are my witnesses that I said, ‘I am not the Messiah,[a] but I have been sent ahead of him.’(C) 29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom who stands and hears him rejoices greatly at the bridegroom’s voice. For this reason my joy has been fulfilled.(D) 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.”[b]
The One Who Comes from Heaven
31 The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is of the earth belongs to the earth and speaks about earthly things. The one who comes from heaven is above all.(E) 32 He testifies to what he has seen and heard, yet no one accepts his testimony.(F) 33 Whoever has accepted his testimony has certified[c] this, that God is true.(G) 34 He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for he gives the Spirit without measure.(H) 35 The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in his hands.(I) 36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not see life but must endure God’s wrath.(J)

26 They came to John and said to him, “Rabbi,(A) that man who was with you on the other side of the Jordan—the one you testified(B) about—look, he is baptizing, and everyone is going to him.”
27 To this John replied, “A person can receive only what is given them from heaven. 28 You yourselves can testify that I said, ‘I am not the Messiah but am sent ahead of him.’(C) 29 The bride belongs to the bridegroom.(D) The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom’s voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete.(E) 30 He must become greater; I must become less.”[a]
31 The one who comes from above(F) is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth.(G) The one who comes from heaven is above all. 32 He testifies to what he has seen and heard,(H) but no one accepts his testimony.(I) 33 Whoever has accepted it has certified that God is truthful. 34 For the one whom God has sent(J) speaks the words of God, for God[b] gives the Spirit(K) without limit. 35 The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands.(L) 36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life,(M) but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them.
