¹² But to all who did receive him, ^(A)who believed in his name, ^(B)he gave the right ^(C)to become ^(D)children of God, ¹³ who ^(E)were born, ^(F)not of blood ^(G)nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

¹⁴ And ^(H)the Word ^(I)became flesh and ^(J)dwelt among us, ^(K)and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son^[a] from the Father, full of ^(L)grace and ^(M)truth.

For God So Loved the World

¹⁶ “For ^(A)God so loved ^(B)the world,^{[a] (C)}that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not ^(D)perish but have eternal life.

²⁴ Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(A)whoever hears my word and ^(B)believes him who sent me has eternal life. He ^(C)does not come into judgment, but ^(D)has passed from death to life.

⁴⁴ No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me ^(A)draws him. And ^(B)I will raise him up on the last day. ⁴⁵ It is written in the Prophets, ^(C)‘And they will all be ^(D)taught by God.’ ^(E)Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me—

⁶⁵ And he said, “This is why I told you ^(A)that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.”

^27 (A)My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. ^28 (B)I give them eternal life, and ^(C)they will never perish, and ^(D)no one will snatch them out of my hand. ²⁹ My Father, ^(E)who has given them to me,^{[a] (F)}is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of ^(G)the Father's hand.

¹⁶ You did not choose me, but ^(A)I chose you and appointed you that you should go and ^(B)bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that ^(C)whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

^6 (A)“I have manifested your name to the people ^(B)whom you gave me out of the world. ^(C)Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.

^12 (A)While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have ^(B)guarded them, and ^(C)not one of them has been lost except ^(D)the son of destruction, ^(E)that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
