31. “And I did not know Him, but that He might be revealed to Yisra’ĕl, therefore I came immersing in water.”
32. And Yoḥanan bore witness, saying, “I have seen the Spirit coming down from heaven like a dove and remain on Him.
33. “And I did not know Him, but He who sent me to immerse in water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit coming down and remaining on Him, this is He who immerses in the Set-apart Spirit.’
34. “And I have seen and have witnessed that this is the Son of Elohim.”
35. Again the following day, Yoḥanan was standing with two of his taught ones,
36. and looking at יהושע walking, he said, “See the Lamb of Elohim!”
37. And the two taught ones heard him speaking, and they followed יהושע.
38. And יהושע turning, and seeing them following, said to them, “What do you seek?” And they said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”
39. He said to them, “Come and see.” They went and saw where He was staying, and remained with Him that day. Now it was about the tenth hour.
40. Andri, the brother of Shim‛on Kĕpha, was one of the two who heard from Yoḥanan, and followed Him.
41. First he found his own brother Shim‛on, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which means the Anointed).
42. And he brought him to יהושע. And looking at him, יהושע said, “You are Shim‛on the son of Yonah, you shall be called Kĕpha” (which means A Stone).
43. On the following day יהושע wished to go to Galil, and He found Philip and said to him, “Follow Me.”
