Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must all be born from above.’

Jesus said to her, “I, the one speaking to you, am he.”

Then they said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he cause you to see?”

Jesus replied, “You would have no authority over me at all, unless it was given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of greater sin.”

Jesus replied, “Woman, why are you saying this to me? My time has not yet come.”

So the Jewish leaders said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath, and you are not permitted to carry your mat.”

They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick up your mat and walk’?”

So they said to him, “Then what miraculous sign will you perform, so that we may see it and believe you? What will you do?

But even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will grant you.”

Jesus responded, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believe, you would see the glory of God?”

They replied, “If this man were not a criminal, we would not have handed him over to you.”

Jesus replied, “Are you saying this on your own initiative, or have others told you about me?”

Jesus said to him, “Because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these.”

Jesus replied, “I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born from above, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

I tell you the solemn truth, we speak about what we know and testify about what we have seen, but you people do not accept our testimony.

So they took away the stone. Jesus looked upward and said, “Father, I thank you that you have listened to me.

Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!”

Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for me? I tell you the solemn truth, the rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times!

And now, Father, glorify me at your side with the glory I had with you before the world was created.

I am praying on behalf of them. I am not praying on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those you have given me, because they belong to you.
