3:1  And there was a man of the Pharisees, Nicodemus by name, a prince of the Jews.
3:2  And he came to Jesus by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know, that thou art come from God a master [Rabbi, we know, for of God thou hast come a master]; for no man may do these signs, that thou doest, but God be with him.
3:3  Jesus answered, and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to thee, but a man be born again, he may not see the kingdom of God.
3:4  Nicodemus said to him [Nicodemus saith to him], How may a man be born, when he is old? whether he may enter again into his mother's womb, and be born again?
3:5  Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to thee, but a man be born again of water, and of the Holy Ghost, he may not enter into the kingdom of God.
3:6  That that is born of the flesh, is flesh; and that that is born of the Spirit, is spirit.
3:7  Wonder thou not, for I said to thee, It behooveth you to be born again.
3:8  The Spirit breatheth where he will, and thou hearest his voice, but thou knowest not, from whence he cometh, nor whither he goeth; so is each man that is born of the Spirit.
3:9  Nicodemus answered, and said to him, How may these things be done [How be these things able to be done]?
3:10  Jesus answered, and said to him, Thou art a master in Israel, and knowest not these things? [Jesus answered, and said to him, Art thou a master in Israel, and knowest not these things?]
3:11  Truly, truly, I say to thee, for we speak that that we know, and we witness that that we have seen, and ye take not our witnessing.
3:12  If I have said to you earthly things, and ye believe not, how if I say to you heavenly things, shall ye believe?
3:13  And no man ascendeth [up] into heaven, but he that came down from heaven, man's Son that is in heaven. [And no man ascendeth into heaven, no but he that came down from heaven, the Son of man which is in heaven.]
3:14  And as Moses areared a serpent in desert [And as Moses reared up a serpent in desert], so it behooveth man's Son to be raised [up],
3:15  that each man that believeth in him, perish not, but have everlasting life.
3:16  For God loved so the world [Forsooth God so loved the world], that he gave his one begotten Son, that each man that believeth in him perish not, but have everlasting life.
3:17  For God sent not his Son into the world, that he judge the world, but that the world be saved by him.
3:18  He that believeth in him, is not deemed; but he that believeth not, is now deemed [He that believeth into him is not deemed, or condemned; forsooth he that believeth not, is now condemned], for he believeth not in the name of the one begotten Son of God.
3:19  And this is the doom, for light came into the world, and men loved more darknesses than light; for their works were evil.
3:20  For each man that doeth evil, hateth the light; and he cometh not to the light [and cometh not to the light], that his works be not reproved.
3:21  But he that doeth truth, cometh to the light, that his works be showed, that they be done in God.
3:22  After these things Jesus came, and his disciples, into the land of Judaea, and there he dwelled with them, and baptized [and baptized, or christened].
3:23  And John was baptizing in Aenon, beside Salim, for many waters were there; and they came, and were baptized.
3:24  And John was not yet sent into prison.
3:25  Therefore a question was made of John's disciples with the Jews, of the purification [of the purification, or cleansing].
3:26  And they came to John, and said to him, Master [Rabbi, or Master], he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witnessing, lo! he baptizeth, and all men come to him.
3:27  John answered, and said, A man may not take any thing, but it be given to him from heaven.
3:28  Ye yourselves bear witnessing to me, that I said, I am not Christ, but that I am sent before him.
3:29  He that hath a wife, is the husband; but the friend of the spouse that standeth, and heareth him, joyeth with joy, for the voice of the spouse. Therefore in this thing my joy is fulfilled.
3:30  It behooveth him to wax, but me to be made less. [It behooveth him to wax, forsooth me to be diminished, or made less.]
3:31  He that came from above, is above all; he that is of the earth, speaketh of the earth; he that cometh from heaven, is above all.
3:32  And he witnesseth that thing that he hath seen, and heard [And this thing that he saw and heard, he witnesseth], and no man taketh his witnessing.
3:33  But he that taketh his witnessing, hath confirmed that God is soothfast. [Forsooth he that hath taken his witnessing, hath marked that God is soothfast.]
3:34  But he whom God hath sent, speaketh the words of God; for not to measure God giveth the Spirit.
3:35  The Father loveth the Son, and he hath given all things into his hand.
