John 3:26-28

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

²⁶ And they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, concerning Whom you have testified, look— this One is baptizing, and all are going to Him!” ²⁷ John responded and said “A person cannot receive even one thing unless it has been given to him from heaven. ²⁸ You yourselves are testifying concerning me that I said that ‘I am not the Christ’, but that ‘I am one having been sent-forth ahead of that One’.
