John 5:29-40

²⁹And thei that han do goode thingis, schulen go in to ayenrisyng of lijf; but thei that han done yuele thingis, in to ayenrisyng of doom.

³⁰Y may no thing do of my silf, but as Y here, Y deme, and my doom is iust, for Y seke not my wille, but the wille of the fadir that sente me.

³¹If Y bere witnessing of my silf, my witnessyng is not trewe;

³²another is that berith witnessyng of me, and Y woot that his witnessyng is trewe, that he berith of me.

³³Ye senten to Joon, and he bar witnessyng to treuthe.

³⁴But Y take not witnessyng of man; but Y seie these thingis, that ye be saaf.

³⁵He was a lanterne brennynge and schynynge; but ye wolden glade at an our in his liyt.

³⁶But Y haue more witnessyng than Joon, for the werkis that my fadir yaf to me to perfourme hem, thilke werkis that Y do beren witnessyng of me, that the fadir sente me.

³⁷And the fadir that sente me, he bar witnessyng of me. Nether ye herden euere his vois, nether ye seien his licnesse.

³⁸And ye han not his word dwellynge in you; for ye byleuen not to hym, whom he sente.

³⁹Seke ye scripturis, in which ye gessen to haue euerlastynge lijf; and tho it ben, that beren witnessyng of me.

⁴⁰And ye wolen not come to me, that ye haue lijf.
