John 3:19-25 American Standard Version (ASV)

19. And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.

20. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest his works should be reproved.

21. But he that doeth the truth cometh to the light, that his works may be made manifest, that they have been wrought in God.

22. After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.

23. And John also was baptizing in Enon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.

24. For John was not yet cast into prison.

25. There arose therefore a questioning on the part of John’s disciples with a Jew about purifying.
