John 5:34-39 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

34. I do not accept testimony from a human being, but I say this so that you may be saved.

35. He was a burning and shining lamp, and for a while you were content to rejoice in his light.

36. But I have testimony greater than John’s. The works that the Father gave me to accomplish, these works that I perform testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.

37. Moreover, the Father who sent me has testified on my behalf. But you have never heard his voice nor seen his form,

38. and you do not have his word remaining in you, because you do not believe in the one whom he has sent.

39. You search the scriptures, because you think you have eternal life through them; even they testify on my behalf.
