John 3:1-3

¹But there was a man from among the Pharisees, his name Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews;

²he came to him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art come a teacher from God, for none can do these signs that thou doest unless God be with him.

³Jesus answered and said to him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except any one be born anew he cannot see the kingdom of God.
