John 5:29-36 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

29. Then they will come out of their graves. Those who did good will rise and have life forever. But those who did evil will rise to be judged guilty.

30. “I can do nothing alone. I judge only the way I am told, so my judgment is right. I don’t try to please myself. I try to please the One who sent me.

31. “If I tell people about myself, then they will not accept what I say about myself.

32. But there is another who tells about me. And I know that the things he says about me are true.

33. “You have sent men to John. And he has told you about the truth.

34. But I don’t need a man to tell about me. I tell you this so that you can be saved.

35. John was like a burning and shining lamp. And you were happy to enjoy his light for a while.

36. “But I have a proof about myself that is greater than that of John. The things I do are my proof. These are the things my Father gave me to do. They show that the Father sent me.
