John 1:29-34

Listen to John 1:29-34

John Testifies About Jesus

29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, ā€œLook, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
30 This is the one I meant when I said, ā€˜A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’
31 I myself did not know him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that he might be revealed to Israel.ā€
32 Then John gave this testimony: ā€œI saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him.
33 And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ā€˜The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
34 I have seen and I testify that this is God’s Chosen One.ā€[a]
