John 1:28-46

²⁸These things were done in Bethabara beyond Iordan, where Iohn did baptize.

²⁹The next day Iohn, seeth Iesus comming vnto him, and saith, Beholde that Lambe of God, which taketh away the sinne of the world.

³⁰This is he of whom I saide, After me commeth a man, which was before me: for he was better then I.

³¹And I knewe him not: but because he should be declared to Israel, therefore am I come, baptizing with water.

³²So Iohn bare recorde, saying, I behelde that Spirit come downe from heauen, like a doue, and it abode vpon him,

³³And I knewe him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, he saide vnto me, Vpon whom thou shalt see that Spirit come downe, and tary still on him, that is he which baptizeth with the holy Ghost.

³⁴And I sawe, and bare record that this is that Sonne of God.

³⁵The next day, Iohn stoode againe, and two of his disciples.

³⁶And he behelde Iesus walking by, and said, Beholde that Lambe of God.

³⁷And the two disciples heard him speake, and followed Iesus.

³⁸Then Iesus turned about, and saw them follow, and saide vnto them, What seeke ye? And they saide vnto him, Rabbi (which is to say by interpretation, Master) where dwellest thou?

³⁹He saide vnto them, Come, and see. They came and sawe where hee dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth houre.

⁴⁰Andrew, Simon Peters brother, was one of the two which had heard it of Iohn, and that followed him.

⁴¹The same founde his brother Simon first, and said vnto him, We haue founde that Messias, which is by interpretation, that Christ.

⁴²And he brought him to Iesus. And Iesus behelde him, and saide, Thou art Simon the sonne of Iona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, a stone.

⁴³The day following, Iesus woulde goe into Galile, and founde Philip, and said vnto him, Followe me.

⁴⁴Nowe Philip was of Bethsaida, the citie of Andrew and Peter.

⁴⁵Philippe founde Nathanael, and saide vnto him, Wee haue founde him of whom Moses did write in the Lawe, and the Prophetes, Iesus that sonne of Ioseph, that was of Nazareth.

⁴⁶Then Nathanael sayde vnto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saide to him, Come, and see.
