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)

John 5:39-47
New International Version
39 You study[a] the Scriptures(A) diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life.(B) These are the very Scriptures that testify about me,(C) 40 yet you refuse to come to me(D) to have life.
41 “I do not accept glory from human beings,(E) 42 but I know you. I know that you do not have the love of God in your hearts. 43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me; but 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 do not seek the glory that comes from the only God[b]?(F)
45 “But do not think I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses,(G) on whom your hopes are set.(H) 46 If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.(I) 47 But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?”(J)
