Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. |
Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” |
Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” |
|
In reply Jesus declared, “I tell you the truth, unless a man is born again (or from above), he cannot see the kingdom of God.” |
Jesus answered him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that unless a person is born again (anew, from above), he cannot ever see – know, be acquainted with [and experience] – the kingdom of God. |
Answered Jesus and said to him, Most assuredly, I am saying to you, unless a person is born again, that second birth having the same source as the first one, he is not able to see the kingdom of God. |
|
“Believe Me,” returned Jesus, “when I assure you that a man cannot see the kingdom of God without being born again.” |
Jesus answered him, “I most solemnly say to you, no one can ever see the kingdom of God, unless he is born from above.” |
