John 5:24-35 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

24. Verily, verily, I say to you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but hath passed from death to life.

25. Verily, verily, I say to you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

26. For as the Father hath life in himself, so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

27. And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

28. Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

29. And shall come forth; they that have done good to the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, to the resurrection of damnation.

30. I can of my own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father who hath sent me.

31. If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not true.

32. There is another that testifieth concerning me, and I know that the testimony which he beareth concerning me is true.

33. Ye sent to John, and he testified to the truth.

34. But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye may be saved.

35. He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
