John 3:14-17 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up,

JPS_ASV_Byz⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up, ¹⁵ that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life. ¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life. ¹⁷ For God sent not his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
