John 5:30-35
New American Standard Bible
30 “(A)I can do nothing [a]on My own. As I hear, I judge; and (B)My judgment is [b]righteous, 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 [c]true. 32 There is (E)another who testifies about Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.
Testimony of John the Baptist
33 You have sent messengers to John, and he (F)has testified to the truth. 34 But (G)the testimony 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 shining, and you (I)were willing to rejoice for [d]a while in his light.
