And Jesus *said to him, (G)Follow Me.” 44 Now (H)Philip was from (I)Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 (J)Philip *found (K)Nathanael and *said to him, “We have found Him of whom (L)Moses wrote in the Law, and (M)the prophets also wrote: Jesus (N)the son of Joseph, from (O)Nazareth!” 46 Nathanael said to him, “(P)Can anything good be from Nazareth?” (Q)Philip *said to him, “Come and see.” 47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and *said of him, “Here is truly an (R)Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!” 48 Nathanael *said to Him, “How do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before (S)Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49 Nathanael answered Him, “(T)Rabbi, You are (U)the Son of God; You are the (V)King of Israel!” 50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these.”
