John 3:28-31

WNT(i) 28 You yourselves can bear witness to my having said, 'I am not the Christ,' but 'I am His appointed forerunner.' 29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; and the bridegroom's friend who stands by his side and listens to him, rejoices heartily on account of the bridegroom's happiness. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete. 30 He must grow greater, but I must grow less. 31 He who comes from above is above all. He whose origin is from the earth is not only himself from the earth, his teaching also is from the earth. He who comes from Heaven is above all.
