John 5:39-47
Christian Standard Bible

39 You pore over the Scriptures(A) because you think you have eternal life in them, and yet they testify about me.(B) 40 But you are not willing(C) to come to me(D) so that you may have life.

41 “I do not accept glory(E) from people, 42 but I know you—that you have no love for God(F) within you. 43 I have come in my Father’s name,(G) and yet you don’t accept me.(H) If someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him. 44 How can you believe, since you accept glory from one another but don’t seek the glory that comes from the only(I) God?(J) 45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. Your accuser is Moses,(K) on whom you have set your hope. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me, because he wrote about me. 47 But if you don’t believe what he wrote,(L) how will you believe my words?”(M)

New American Standard Bible

Testimony of the Scripture

39 [a](A)You examine the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is (B)those very Scriptures that testify about Me; 40 and yet you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life. 41 (C)I do not receive glory from people; 42 but I know you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves. 43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not [b]receive Me; (D)if another comes in his own name, you will [c]receive him. 44 How can you believe, when you [d](E)accept [e]glory from one another and you do not seek (F)the [f]glory that is from (G)the one and only God? 45 Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is (H)Moses, in whom you have put your hope. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for (I)he wrote about Me. 47 But (J)if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”
