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! ³⁰ This is he of whom I said, ^(D)‘After me comes a man who ranks before me, because he was before me.’

³² And John ^(A)bore witness: ^(B)“I saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove, and ^(C)it remained on him. ³³ I myself did not know him, but ^(D)he who sent me to baptize ^(E)with water said to me, ‘He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, ^(F)this is he who baptizes ^(G)with the Holy Spirit.’ ³⁴ And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son^[a] of God.”
