John 5:39-47
World English Bible
39 “You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me. 40 Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life. 41 I don’t receive glory from men. 42 But I know you, that you don’t have God’s love in yourselves. 43 I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him. 44 How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?
45 “Don’t think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me. 47 But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

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)
