John 1:19-34

Rotherham(i) 19 And, this, is the witness of John, when the Jews sent forth unto him, out of Jerusalem, priests and Levites,––that they might question him––Who art, thou? 20 and he confessed, and did not deny,––and he confessed––I, am not, the Christ; 21 and they questioned him––What then? Art, thou, Elijah? and he saith––I am not; The prophet, art, thou? and he answered––No! 22 So they said unto him––Who, art thou? that, an answer, we may give, unto them who sent us,––What sayest thou, concerning thyself? 23 He said––I, am a Voice, of one crying aloud; ––In the desert, make ye straight, the way of the Lord: according as said Isaiah the prophet. 24 And they had been sent forth from among the Pharisees; 25 and they questioned him, and said unto him––Why, then, dost thou immerse,––if, thou, art not, the Christ, nor Elijah, nor, the Prophet? 26 John answered them, saying––I, immerse, in water. In the midst of you, standeth one, whom, ye, know not; –– 27 after me, coming:––Of whom, I, am not worthy that I should unloose the thong of the sandal. 28 These things, in Bethany, came to pass, beyond the Jordan, where John was, immersing.
29 On the morrow, he beholdeth Jesus, coming unto him, and saith––See! the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world. 30 This, is he, of whom, I, said––After me, cometh a man, who, before me, hath advanced, because, my Chief, was he. 31 And, I, knew him not, but, that he might be manifested unto Israel, therefore, came, I, in water, immersing. 32 And John bare witness, saying––I have gazed upon the Spirit, descending like a dove, out of heaven,––and it abode upon him. 33 And, I, knew him not,––but, he that sent me to immerse in water, he, unto me, said––Upon whomsoever thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding upon him, the same, is he that immerseth in Holy Spirit. 34 I, therefore, have seen, and borne witness––That, this, is, the, Son of God.
