John 5:31-40
New American Standard Bible
31 “(A)If I alone testify about Myself, My testimony is not [a]true. 32 There is (B)another who testifies about Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.
Testimony of John the Baptist
33 You have sent messengers to John, and he (C)has testified to the truth. 34 But (D)the testimony I receive is not from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved. 35 He was (E)the lamp that was burning and shining, and you (F)were willing to rejoice for [b]a while in his light.
Testimony of Works
36 But the testimony I have is greater than the testimony of John; for (G)the works which the Father has given Me (H)to accomplish—the very works that I do—testify about Me, that the Father (I)has sent Me.
Testimony of the Father
37 And the Father who sent Me, (J)He has testified about Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 Also you do not have (K)His word remaining in you, because you do not believe Him whom He (L)sent.
Testimony of the Scripture
39 [c](M)You examine the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is (N)those very Scriptures that testify about Me; 40 and yet you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.
