⁵ “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born of water and Spirit, he can’t enter into God’s Kingdom.

⁶ That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

⁷ Don’t marvel that I said to you, ‘You must all be born anew.’

⁸ The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but don’t know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

¹⁰ “Are you the teacher of Israel, and don’t understand these things?

¹¹ Most certainly I tell you, we speak that which we know and testify of that which we have seen, and you don’t receive our witness.

¹² If I told you earthly things and you don’t believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?

¹³ No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven.

¹⁴ As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

¹⁵ that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only born Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

¹⁷ For God didn’t send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

¹⁸ He who believes in him is not judged. He who doesn’t believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only born Son of God.

¹⁹ This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil.

²⁰ For everyone who does evil hates the light and doesn’t come to the light, lest his works would be exposed.

²¹ But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God.”

⁴ “Be careful that no one leads you astray.

⁵ For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.

⁶ You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.

⁷ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.

⁸ But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.

⁹ “Then they will deliver you up to oppression and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name’s sake.

¹⁰ Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.

¹¹ Many false prophets will arise and will lead many astray.

¹² Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.

¹³ But he who endures to the end will be saved.

¹⁴ This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

⁵ “Be careful that no one leads you astray.

⁶ For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and will lead many astray.

⁷ “When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, don’t be troubled. For those must happen, but the end is not yet.

⁸ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places. There will be famines and troubles. These things are the beginning of birth pains.

⁹ “But watch yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils. You will be beaten in synagogues. You will stand before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them.

¹⁰ The Good News must first be preached to all the nations.

¹¹ When they lead you away and deliver you up, don’t be anxious beforehand or premeditate what you will say, but say whatever will be given you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

¹² “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.

¹³ You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.

¹⁶ “A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”

¹⁷ ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;’ […] ‘Because I go to the Father’

¹⁸ ‘A little while’

¹⁹ “Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’?

²⁰ Most certainly I tell you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

²¹ A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she doesn’t remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.

²² Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.

²³ “In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

²⁴ Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.

²⁶ Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.

²⁷ What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.

²⁸ Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

²⁹ “Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.

³⁰ But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

³¹ Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.

²² “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

²³ They will tell you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Don’t go away or follow after them,

²⁴ for as the lightning, when it flashes out of one part under the sky, shines to another part under the sky, so will the Son of Man be in his day.

²⁵ But first, he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

²⁶ As it was in the days of Noah, even so it will also be in the days of the Son of Man.

²⁷ They ate, they drank, they married, and they were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ship, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

²⁸ Likewise, even as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

²⁹ but in the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from the sky and destroyed them all.

³⁰ It will be the same way in the day that the Son of Man is revealed.

³¹ In that day, he who will be on the housetop and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away. Let him who is in the field likewise not turn back.

³² Remember Lot’s wife!

³³ Whoever seeks to save his life loses it, but whoever loses his life preserves it.

³⁴ I tell you, in that night there will be two people in one bed. One will be taken and the other will be left.

³⁵ There will be two grinding grain together. One will be taken and the other will be left.”

³⁷ “Where the body is, there the vultures will also be gathered together.”

¹⁴ “But when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not” […] “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains,

¹⁵ and let him who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter in, to take anything out of his house.

¹⁶ Let him who is in the field not return back to take his cloak.

¹⁷ But woe to those who are with child and to those who nurse babies in those days!

¹⁸ Pray that your flight won’t be in the winter.

¹⁹ For in those days there will be oppression, such as there has not been the like from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be.

²⁰ Unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would have been saved; but for the sake of the chosen ones, whom he picked out, he shortened the days.

²¹ Then if anyone tells you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ don’t believe it.

²² For false christs and false prophets will arise and will show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.

²³ But you watch. “Behold, I have told you all things beforehand.

⁴¹ “I am the bread which came down out of heaven.”

⁴² ‘I have come down out of heaven’?”

⁴³ “Don’t murmur among yourselves.

⁴⁴ No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up in the last day.

⁴⁵ It is written in the prophets, ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who hears from the Father and has learned, comes to me.

⁴⁶ Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.

⁴⁷ Most certainly, I tell you, he who believes in me has eternal life.

⁴⁸ I am the bread of life.

⁴⁹ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died.

⁵⁰ This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.

⁵¹ I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”

¹⁶ “Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.

¹⁷ But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.

¹⁸ Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.

¹⁹ But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.

²⁰ For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

²¹ “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.

²² You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.

²³ But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.

¹⁵ “When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),

¹⁶ then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

¹⁷ Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out the things that are in his house.

¹⁸ Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.

¹⁹ But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!

²⁰ Pray that your flight will not be in the winter nor on a Sabbath,

²¹ for then there will be great suffering, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.

²² Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.

⁵³ “Most certainly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don’t have life in yourselves.

⁵⁴ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

⁵⁵ For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

⁵⁶ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.

⁵⁷ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on me will also live because of me.

⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down out of heaven—not as our fathers ate the manna and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.”

²⁵ “I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.

²⁶ In that day you will ask in my name; and I don’t say to you that I will pray to the Father for you,

²⁷ for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.

²⁸ I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”

³¹ “Do you now believe?

³² Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

³³ I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
