John 3:1-7 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

1. There was a man named Nicodemus who was a Pharisee and a Jewish leader.

2. One night he went to Jesus and said, “Sir, we know that God has sent you to teach us. You could not perform these miracles, unless God were with you.”

3. Jesus replied, “I tell you for certain that you must be born from above before you can see God's kingdom!”

4. Nicodemus asked, “How can a grown man ever be born a second time?”

5. Jesus answered:I tell you for certain that before you can get into God's kingdom, you must be born not only by water, but by the Spirit.

6. Humans give life to their children. Yet only God's Spirit can change you into a child of God.

7. Don't be surprised when I say that you must be born from above.
