New Testament

John 3:19-26 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

19. And this is the judgment: that the Light has come into the world, and men loved darkness more than light. For their works were evil.

20. For everyone who does evil hates the Light and does not go toward the Light, so that his works may not be corrected.

21. But whoever acts in truth goes toward the Light, so that his works may be manifested, because they have been accomplished in God."

22. After these things, Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judea. And he was living there with them and baptizing.

23. Now John was also baptizing, at Aenon near Salim, because there was much water in that place. And they were arriving and being baptized.

24. For John had not yet been cast into prison.

25. Then a dispute occurred between the disciples of John and the Jews, about purification.

26. And they went to John and said to him: "Rabbi, the one who was with you across the Jordan, about whom you offered testimony: behold, he is baptizing and everyone is going to him."
