John 5:30-35

New American Standard Bible 1995

³⁰ “^(A)I can do nothing on My own initiative. As I hear, I judge; and ^(B)My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but ^(C)the will of Him who sent Me.

³¹ “^(D)If I alone testify about Myself, My testimony is not ^[a]true. ³² There is ^(E)another who testifies of Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.

Witness of John

³³ You have sent to John, and he ^(F)has testified to the truth. ³⁴ But ^(G)the testimony which I receive is not from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved. ³⁵ He was ^(H)the lamp that was burning and was shining and you ^(I)were willing to rejoice for ^[b]a while in his light.
