John 1:29-34

Behold, the Lamb of God

29 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, a the Lamb of God, who b takes away the sin c of the world! 30 This is he of whom I said d After me comes a man who ranks before me, because he was before me.’ 31 I myself did not know him, but e for this purpose I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel.” 32 And John f bore witness: g “I saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove, and h it remained on him. 33 I myself did not know him, but i he who sent me to baptize j with water said to me, ‘He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain k this is he who baptizes l with the Holy Spirit.’ 34 And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son of God.”
