John 3:4-7

⁴Nychodeme seide to hym, Hou may a man be borun, whanne he is eeld? whether he may entre ayen in to his modris wombe, and be borun ayen?

⁵Jhesus answeride, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, but a man be borun ayen of watir, and of the Hooli Goost, he may not entre in to the kyngdom of God.

⁶`That that is borun of the fleisch, is fleisch; and `that that is borun of spirit, is spirit.

⁷Wondre thou not, for Y seide to thee, It bihoueth you to be borun ayen.
