John 5:37-47
Authorized (King James) Version
37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. 38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. 39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. 41 I receive not honour from men. 42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. 43 I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. 44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only? 45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. 46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. 47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

New King James Version
37 And the Father Himself, who sent Me, (A)has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, (B)nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. 39 (C)You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and (D)these are they which testify of Me. 40 (E)But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.
41 (F)“I do not receive honor from men. 42 But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you. 43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive. 44 (G)How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do not seek (H)the honor that comes from the only God? 45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; (I)there is one who accuses you—Moses, in whom you trust. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; (J)for he wrote about Me. 47 But if you (K)do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”

John 5:37-47
Modern English Version
37 The Father Himself, who has sent Me, has borne witness of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 You do not have His word abiding in you, for you do not believe the One He has sent. 39 You search the Scriptures, because you think in them you have eternal life. These are they who bear witness of Me. 40 Yet you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.
41 “I do not receive honor from men. 42 But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you. 43 I have come in My Father’s name, but you do not receive Me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him. 44 How can you believe, who receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?
45 “Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you—Moses, in whom you trust. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me, for he wrote of Me. 47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”

Juan 5:37-47
Reina-Valera Antigua
37 Y el que me envió, el Padre, él ha dado testimonio de mí. Ni nunca habéis oído su voz, ni habéis visto su parecer.
38 Ni tenéis su palabra permanente en vosotros; porque al que él envió, á éste vosotros no creéis.
39 Escudriñad las Escrituras, porque á vosotros os parece que en ellas tenéis la vida eterna; y ellas son las que dan testimonio de mí.
40 Y no queréis venir á mí, para que tengáis vida.
41 Gloria de los hombres no recibo.
42 Mas yo os conozco, que no tenéis amor de Dios en vosotros.
43 Yo he venido en nombre de mi Padre, y no me recibís: si otro viniere en su propio nombre, á aquél recibiréis.
44 ¿Cómo podéis vosotros creer, pues tomáis la gloria los unos de los otros, y no buscáis la gloria que de sólo Dios viene?
45 No penséis que yo os tengo de acusar delante del Padre; hay quien os acusa, Moisés, en quien vosotros esperáis.
46 Porque si vosotros creyeseis á Moisés, creeríais á mí; porque de mí escribió él.
47 Y si á sus escritos no creéis, ¿cómo creeréis á mis palabras?
