John 1:29-34

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁹ The next day he *saw Jesus coming to him and *said, “Behold, ^(A)the Lamb of God who ^(B)takes away the sin of the world! ³⁰ This is He on behalf of whom I said, ‘^(C)After me comes a Man who ^[a]has a higher rank than I, ^(D)for He existed before me.’ ³¹ I did not recognize ^[b]Him, but so that He might be manifested to Israel, I came baptizing ^[c]in water.” ³² John ^(E)testified saying, “^(F)I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and He remained upon Him. ³³ I did not recognize ^[d]Him, but He who sent me to baptize ^[e]in water said to me, ‘He upon whom you see the Spirit descending and remaining upon Him, ^(G)this is the One who baptizes ^[f]in the Holy Spirit.’ ³⁴ I myself have seen, and have testified that this is ^(H)the Son of God.”
