John 3:27-29

21st Century King James Version

²⁷ John answered and said, “A man can receive nothing, unless it be given him from Heaven.

²⁸ Ye yourselves bear me witness that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but that ‘I am sent before Him.’

²⁹ He that hath the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. This my joy, therefore, is fulfilled.
