Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ John answered, and said––A man can receive, nothing, except it have been given him out of heaven. ²⁸ Ye yourselves, unto me, bear witness, that, I, said––I, am not the Christ; but––I am sent before, That One. ²⁹ He that hath the bride, is, bridegroom; but, the friend of the bridegroom, who standeth by and hearkeneth unto him, greatly, rejoiceth, by reason of the voice of the bridegroom. This, my joy, therefore, is fulfilled.
