John 1:45-51 Common English Bible (CEB)

45. Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law and the Prophets: Jesus, Joseph’s son, from Nazareth."

46. Nathanael responded, "Can anything from Nazareth be good?" Philip said, "Come and see."

47. Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said about him, "Here is a genuine Israelite in whom there is no deceit."

48. Nathanael asked him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered, "Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree."

49. Nathanael replied, "Rabbi, you are God’s Son. You are the king of Israel."

50. Jesus answered, "Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these!

51. I assure you that you will see heaven open and God’s angels going up to heaven and down to earth on the Human One."
