MKJV(i)
25 Then a question from John's disciples arose with the Jews about purification.
26 And they came to John and said to him, Rabbi, He who was with you beyond Jordan, to whom you bore witness, behold, He baptizes, and all come to Him!
27 And John answered and said, A man can receive nothing unless it is given to him from Heaven.
28 You yourselves bear witness to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before Him.
29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom, but the friend of the bridegroom who stands and hears him rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Then my joy is fulfilled.
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
31 He who comes from above is above all; he who is from the earth is earthly and speaks from the earth. He who comes from Heaven is above all,
32 and what He has seen and heard, that He testifies, and no one receives His testimony.
33 He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that God is true.
34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.
35 The Father loves the Son and has given all things into His hand.
36 He who believes on the Son has everlasting life, and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him.
