Behold, the Lamb of God

²⁹ The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, ^(A)the Lamb of God, who ^(B)takes away the sin ^(C)of the world!

³⁶ and he looked at Jesus as he walked by and said, “Behold, ^(A)the Lamb of God!”

²⁸ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, ^(A)‘I am not the Christ, but ^(B)I have been sent before him.’ ^29 (C)The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. ^(D)The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, ^(E)rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete. ^30 (F)He must increase, but I must decrease.”^[a]

^31 (G)He who comes from above ^(H)is above all. He who is of the earth belongs to the earth and ^(I)speaks in an earthly way. ^(J)He who comes from heaven ^(K)is above all. ^32 (L)He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, ^(M)yet no one receives his testimony. ³³ Whoever receives his testimony ^(N)sets his seal to this, ^(O)that God is true. ³⁴ For he whom ^(P)God has sent utters the words of God, for he gives the Spirit ^(Q)without measure. ^35 (R)The Father loves the Son and ^(S)has given all things into his hand. ^36 (T)Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; ^(U)whoever does not obey the Son shall not ^(V)see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.

^33 (A)You sent to John, and he has borne witness to the truth.
