St. John 1:32-48 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

32. And John gave testimony, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

33. And I knew him not; but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, the same is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.

34. And I have seen and have given testimony that this is the Son of God.

35. And again the next day John stood, and two of his disciples,

36. and looking upon Jesus as he walked, he said, Behold the Lamb of God!

37. And the two disciples heard him speak and followed Jesus.

38. Then Jesus turned and saw them following and said unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, Master), where dwellest thou?

39. He said unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt and abode with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

40. One of the two who heard John speak and followed him was Andrew, brother of Simon Peter.

41. He first found his own brother Simon and said unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

42. And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jonah: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

43. The day following Jesus desired to go forth into Galilee and found Philip and said unto him, Follow me.

44. Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45. Philip found Nathanael and said unto him, We have found him of whom Moses in the law and the prophets wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

46. And Nathanael said unto him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip said unto him, Come and see.

47. Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him and said of him, Behold a true Israelite, in whom is no guile!

48. Nathanael said unto him, From where dost thou know me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
