John 1:35-51 — Legacy Standard Bible

Behold, the Lamb of God

³⁵^aOn the next day, John again was standing ¹with two of his disciples, ³⁶and he looked at Jesus as He walked, and *said, “Behold, ^athe Lamb of God!” ³⁷And the two disciples heard him speak and followed Jesus. ³⁸And when Jesus turned and noticed them following, He *said to them, “What do you seek?” They said to Him, “^aRabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?” ³⁹He *said to them, “Come, and you will see.” So they came and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day. It was about the ¹tenth hour. ⁴⁰^aOne of the two who heard John speak and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. ⁴¹He first *found his own brother Simon and *said to him, “We have found the ^aMessiah” (which translated means ¹Christ). ⁴²He brought him to Jesus. When Jesus looked at him, He said, “You are Simon the son of ^aJohn; you shall be called ^bCephas” (which is translated ¹^,^cPeter).

⁴³^aOn the next day, He desired to go into ^bGalilee, and He *found ^cPhilip. And Jesus *said to him, “^dFollow Me.” ⁴⁴Now ^aPhilip was from ^bBethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. ⁴⁵^aPhilip *found ^bNathanael and *said to him, “We have found Him of whom ^cMoses in the Law and also ^dthe Prophets wrote—Jesus of ^eNazareth, ^fthe son of Joseph.” ⁴⁶And Nathanael said to him, “^aCan any good thing come out of Nazareth?” ^bPhilip *said to him, “Come and see.” ⁴⁷Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and *said about him, “Behold, truly an ^aIsraelite in whom there is no deceit!” ⁴⁸Nathanael *said to Him, “From where do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before ^aPhilip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” ⁴⁹Nathanael answered Him, “^aRabbi, You are ^bthe Son of God; You are the ^cKing of Israel.” ⁵⁰Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” ⁵¹And He *said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see ^athe heavens opened and ^bthe angels of God ascending and descending on ^cthe Son of Man.”
