24 And Joon was not yit sent in to prisoun.
25 Therfor a questioun was maad of Jonys disciplis with the Jewis, of the purificacioun.
26 And thei camen to Joon, and seiden `to hym, Maister, he that was with thee biyonde Jordan, to whom thou hast borun witnessyng, lo! he baptisith, and alle men comen to hym.
27 Joon answerde, and seide, A man may not take ony thing, but it be youun to hym fro heuene.
28 Ye you silf beren witnessyng to me, that Y seide, Y am not Crist, but that Y am sent bifore hym.
29 He that hath a wijf, is the hosebonde; but the freend of the spouse that stondith, and herith hym, ioieth with ioye, for the vois of the spouse. Therfor in this thing my ioye is fulfillid.
30 It bihoueth hym to wexe, but me to be maad lesse.
31 He that cam from aboue, is aboue alle; he that is of the erthe, spekith of the erthe; he that cometh from heuene, is aboue alle.
32 And he witnessith that thing that he hath seie, and herde, and no man takith his witnessing.
33 But he that takith his witnessyng, hath confermyd that God is sothefast.
34 But he whom God hath sent, spekith the wordis of God; for not to mesure God yyueth the spirit.
35 The fadir loueth the sone, and he hath youun alle thingis in his hoond.
36 He that bileueth in the sone, hath euerlastynge lijf; but he that is vnbileueful to the sone, schal not se euerlastynge lijf, but the wraththe of God dwellith on hym.
