John 5:36-47

English Standard Version

³⁶ But ^(A)the testimony that I have is greater than that of John. For ^(B)the works that the Father has given me ^(C)to accomplish, the very works that I am doing, ^(D)bear witness about me that ^(E)the Father has sent me. ³⁷ And the Father who sent me ^(F)has himself borne witness about me. His voice you have never heard, ^(G)his form you have never seen, ³⁸ and ^(H)you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe the one whom he has sent. ^39 (I)You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and ^(J)it is they that bear witness about me, ⁴⁰ yet ^(K)you refuse to come to me that you may have life. ^41 (L)I do not receive glory from people. ⁴² But ^(M)I know that you do not have ^(N)the love of God within you. ⁴³ I have come ^(O)in my Father's name, and ^(P)you do not receive me. ^(Q)If another comes in his own name, you will receive him. ⁴⁴ How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and ^(R)do not seek the glory that comes from ^(S)the only God? ⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you: Moses, ^(T)on whom you have set your hope. ⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for ^(U)he wrote of me. ⁴⁷ But ^(V)if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”
