John 3:5-11 New English Translation (NET)

5. Jesus answered, “I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born of water and spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

6. What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7. Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must all be born from above.’

8. The wind blows wherever it will, and you hear the sound it makes, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

9. Nicodemus replied, “How can these things be?”

10. Jesus answered, “Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you don’t understand these things?

11. I tell you the solemn truth, we speak about what we know and testify about what we have seen, but you people do not accept our testimony.
