Jesus

After that, he went downe into Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: but they continued not many daies there.

For the Iewes Passeouer was at hande. Therefore Iesus went vp to Hierusalem.

Then hee made a scourge of small cordes, and draue them all out of the Temple with the sheepe and oxen, and powred out the changers money, and ouerthrewe the tables,

And said vnto them that solde doues, Take these things hence: make not my fathers house, an house of marchandise.

And his disciples remembred, that it was written, The zeale of thine house hath eaten me vp.

Then answered the Iewes, and saide vnto him, What signe shewest thou vnto vs, that thou doest these things?

Iesus answered, and said vnto them, Destroy this Temple, and in three daies I will raise it vp againe.

Then said the Iewes, Fourtie and sixe yeeres was this Temple a building, and wilt thou reare it vp in three daies?

But he spake of the temple of his bodie.

Assoone therefore as he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembred that hee thus sayde vnto them: and they beleeued the Scripture, and the worde which Iesus had saide.

Nowe when hee was at Hierusalem at the Passeouer in the feast, many beleeued in his Name, when they sawe his miracles which he did.

But Iesus did not commit him selfe vnto them, because he knewe them all,

And had no neede that any should testifie of man: for he knewe what was in man.

This man came to Iesus by night, and sayd vnto him, Rabbi, we knowe ye thou art a teacher come from God: for no man could do these miracles that thou doest, except God were with him.

Iesus answered, and said vnto him, Verely, verely I say vnto thee, except a man be borne againe, he can not see the kingdome of God.

Nicodemus sayde vnto him, Howe can a man be borne which is olde? can he enter into his mothers wombe againe, and be borne?

Iesus answered, Verely, verely I say vnto thee, except that a man be borne of water and of the Spirite, hee can not enter into the kingdome of God.

Marueile not that I said to thee, Yee must be borne againe.

Nicodemus answered, and said vnto him, Howe can these things be?

Iesus answered, and saide vnto him, Art thou a teacher of Israel, and knowest not these things?

Verely, verely I say vnto thee, wee speake that we know, and testifie that we haue seene: but yee receiue not our witnesse.

If when I tel you earthly things, ye beleeue not, howe should yee beleeue, if I shall tel you of heauenly things?

For no man ascendeth vp to heauen, but he that hath descended from heauen, that Sonne of man which is in heauen.

And as Moses lift vp the serpent in the wildernesse, so must that Sonne of man be lift vp,

That whosoeuer beleeueth in him, shoulde not perish, but haue eternall life.
