ISV(i)
33 You have sent messengers to John, and he has testified to the truth.
34 I myself do not accept human testimony, but I am saying these things so that you may be saved.
35 That man John was a lamp that burns and brightly shines, and for a while you were willing to rejoice in his light.
36“But I have a greater testimony than John’s, because the actions that the Father has given me to complete—the very actions that I am doing—testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.
37 Moreover, the Father who sent me has himself testified on my behalf. You have never heard his voice or seen what he looks like,
38 nor do you have his word at work in you, because you do not believe in the one whom he sent.
39 You examine the Scriptures carefully because you suppose that in them you have eternal life. Yet they testify about me.
40 But you are not willing to come to me to have life.
