John 3:18-31

¹⁸He that beleveth on him shall not be condempned. But he that beleveth not is condempned all redy be cause he beleveth not in the name of the only sonne of God.

¹⁹And this is the condempnacion: that light is come into the worlde and the me loved darcknes more then light because their dedes were evill.

²⁰For every man that evyll doeth hateth the light: nether commeth to light lest his dedes shuld be reproved.

²¹But he that doth truth commeth to the light that his dedes might be knowen how that they are wrought in God.

²²After these thinges cam Iesus and his disciples into the Iewes londe and ther he haunted with them and baptised.

²³And Iohn also baptised in Enon besydes Salim because ther was moche water there and they came and were baptised.

²⁴For Iohn was not yet cast into preson.

²⁵And ther arose a question bitwene Iohns disciples and the Iewes about purifiynge.

²⁶And they came vnto Iohn and sayde vnto him: Rabbi he that was with the beyonde Iordan to whom thou barest witnes. Beholde the same baptyseth and all me come to him.

²⁷Iohn answered and sayde: a man can receave no thinge at all except it be geve him from heaven.

²⁸Ye youre selves are witnesses how that I sayde: I am not Christ but am sent before him.

²⁹He that hath the bryde is the brydegrome. But the frende of the brydegrome which stondeth by and heareth him reioyseth greately of the brydgromes voyce. Tis my ioye is fulfilled.

³⁰He must increace: and I muste decreace.

³¹He that commeth from an hye is above all: He that is of the erth is of the erth and speaketh of the erth. He that cometh from heaven is above all
