Witnesses to Jesus

30 ^d“I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge, and ^emy judgment is just, because ^fI seek not my own will ^gbut the will of him who sent me.

31 ^hIf I alone bear witness about myself, my testimony is not true. 32 There is ⁱanother who bears witness about me, and ^jI know that the testimony that he bears about me is true. 33 ^kYou sent to John, and he has borne witness to the truth. 34 Not that ^lthe testimony that I receive is from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved. 35 He was a burning and ^mshining lamp, and ⁿyou were willing to rejoice for a while in his light. 36 But ^lthe testimony that I have is greater than that of John. For ^othe works that the Father has given me ^pto accomplish, the very works that I am doing, ^qbear witness about me that ^rthe Father has sent me. 37 And the Father who sent me ^shas himself borne witness about me. His voice you have never heard, ^this form you have never seen, 38 and ^uyou do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe the one whom he has sent. 39 ^vYou search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and ^wit is they that bear witness about me, 40 yet ^xyou refuse to come to me that you may have life. 41 ^yI do not receive glory from people. 42 But ^zI know that you do not have ^athe love of God within you. 43 I have come ^bin my Father’s name, and ^cyou do not receive me. ^dIf another comes in his own name, you will receive him. 44 How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and ^edo not seek the glory that comes from ^fthe only God? 45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you: Moses, ^gon whom you have set your hope. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for ^hhe wrote of me. 47 But ⁱif you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”
