John 1:40-46

New International Version

⁴⁰ Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. ⁴¹ The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ).^{(A) 42} And he brought him to Jesus.

Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called^(B) Cephas” (which, when translated, is Peter^[a]).^(C)

Jesus Calls Philip and Nathanael

⁴³ The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip,^(D) he said to him, “Follow me.”^(E)

⁴⁴ Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida.^{(F) 45} Philip found Nathanael^(G) and told him, “We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law,^(H) and about whom the prophets also wrote^(I)—Jesus of Nazareth,^(J) the son of Joseph.”^(K)

⁴⁶ “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?”^(L) Nathanael asked.

“Come and see,” said Philip.
