John 5:39-47
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
39 “You search the scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life, and it is they that testify on my behalf.(A) 40 Yet you refuse to come to me to have life. 41 I do not accept glory from humans. 42 But I know that you do not have the love of God in[a] you. 43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me; if another comes in his own name, you will accept him. 44 How can you believe when you accept glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the one who alone is God?[b](B) 45 Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; your accuser is Moses, on whom you have set your hope.(C) 46 If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.(D) 47 But if you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?”

John 5:39-47
English Standard Version
39 (A)You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and (B)it is they that bear witness about me, 40 yet (C)you refuse to come to me that you may have life. 41 (D)I do not receive glory from people. 42 But (E)I know that you do not have (F)the love of God within you. 43 I have come (G)in my Father's name, and (H)you do not receive me. (I)If another comes in his own name, you will receive him. 44 How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and (J)do not seek the glory that comes from (K)the only God? 45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you: Moses, (L)on whom you have set your hope. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for (M)he wrote of me. 47 But (N)if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”
