Jesus responded and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless someone is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” | Jesus replied, “Amen, amen, I say to you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.” |
Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” | Jesus said, “Amen, amen, I say to you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.” |

That which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit. | What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. |
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. | For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may attain eternal life. |
For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him. | For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world but in order that the world might be saved through him. |
The one who believes in Him is not judged; the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. | Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe in him already stands condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God. |
But the one who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds will be revealed as having been performed in God. | However, whoever lives by the truth comes to the light so that it may be clearly seen that his deeds have been done in God. |
He must increase, but I must decrease. | He must increase; I must decrease. |
The one who believes in the Son has eternal life; but the one who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. | Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not believe in the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God rests upon him. |
