John 1:35-42
International Standard Version
The First Disciples
35 The next day, John was standing there again with two of his disciples. 36 As he watched Jesus walk by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!” 37 When the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.
38 But when Jesus turned around and saw them following, he asked them, “What are you looking for?”
They asked him, “Rabbi,” (which is translated “Teacher”), “where are you staying?”
39 He told them, “Come and see!” So they went and saw where he was staying, and they remained with him that day. It was about four o’clock in the afternoon.[a]
40 Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard John and followed Jesus.[b] 41 The first thing Andrew[c] did was to find his brother Simon and say to him, “We have found the Anointed One!”[d] (which is translated “Messiah”).[e]
42 He led Simon[f] to Jesus. Jesus looked at him intently and said, “You are Simon, John’s son.[g] You will be called Cephas!”[h] (which is translated “Peter”).[i]
