11. Amen, amen, I say to you, that we speak about what we know, and we testify about what we have seen. But you do not accept our testimony.
12. If I have spoken to you about earthly things, and you have not believed, then how will you believe, if I will speak to you about heavenly things?
13. And no one has ascended to heaven, except the one who descended from heaven: the Son of man who is in heaven.
14. And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so also must the Son of man be lifted up,
15. so that whoever believes in him may not perish, but may have eternal life.
16. For God so loved the world that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that all who believe in him may not perish, but may have eternal life.
17. For God did not send his Son into the world, in order to judge the world, but in order that the world may be saved through him.
18. Whoever believes in him is not judged. But whoever does not believe is already judged, because he does not believe in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.
19. And this is the judgment: that the Light has come into the world, and men loved darkness more than light. For their works were evil.
20. For everyone who does evil hates the Light and does not go toward the Light, so that his works may not be corrected.
21. But whoever acts in truth goes toward the Light, so that his works may be manifested, because they have been accomplished in God."
22. After these things, Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judea. And he was living there with them and baptizing.
23. Now John was also baptizing, at Aenon near Salim, because there was much water in that place. And they were arriving and being baptized.
24. For John had not yet been cast into prison.
25. Then a dispute occurred between the disciples of John and the Jews, about purification.
