Proverbs 18:13 (ESV)

John 1:29–38 (NLT)

29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! 

30 He is the one I was talking about when I said, ‘A man is coming after me who is far greater than I am, for he existed long before me.’ 

31 I did not recognize him as the Messiah, but I have been baptizing with water so that he might be revealed to Israel.” 

32 Then John testified, “I saw the Holy Spirit descending like a dove from heaven and resting upon him. 

33 I didn’t know he was the one, but when God sent me to baptize with water, he told me, ‘The one on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ 

34 I saw this happen to Jesus, so I testify that he is the Chosen One of God.” 

35 The following day John was again standing with two of his disciples. 

36 As Jesus walked by, John looked at him and declared, “Look! There is the Lamb of God!” 

37 When John’s two disciples heard this, they followed Jesus. 

38 Jesus looked around and saw them following. “What do you want?”
