1fareesiyon men se neekudemus nam aek manushy tha, jo yahoodiyon ka saradar tha.
2us ne rat ko yeeshu ke pas akar us se kaha, he rabbee, ham janate haai, ki too parameshvar kee are se guroo ho kar aya haai kyonaki koi in chinhon ko jo too dikhata haai, yaadi parameshvar usake sath n ho, to naheen dikha sakata.
3yeeshu ne us ko uttr diya ki maain tujh se sach sach kahata hoo, yadi koi naye sire se n janmen to parameshvar ka rajy dekh naheen sakata.
4neekudemus ne us se kaha, manushy jab booddha ho gaya, to kyonkar janm le sakata haai?
5yeeshu ne uttr diya, ki maain tujh se sach sach kahata hoon jab tak koi manushy jal aur atma se n janme to vah parameshvar ke rajy men pravesh naheen kar sakata.
6kyonaki jo shareer se janma haai, vah shareer haai aur jo atma se janma haai, vah atma haai.
7achambha n kar, ki maain ne tujh se kaha ki tumhen naye sire se janm lena avashy haai.
8hava jidhar chahatee haai udhar chalatee haai, aur too usaka shabd sunata haai, parantu naheen janata, ki vah kahan se atee aur kidhar ko jatee haai? jo koi atma se janma haai vah aeesa hee haai.
9neekudemus ne us ko uttr diya ki ye baten kyonkar ho sakatee haain?
10yah sunakar yeeshu ne us se kaha too israaeliyon ka guroo ho kar bhee kya in baton ko naheen samajhta.
11maain tujh se sach sach kahata hoon ki ham jo janate haai, vah kahate haai, aur jise ham ne dekha haai us kee gavahee dete haai, aur tum hamaree gavahee grahan naheen karate.
12jab maain ne tum se prathvee kee baten kahee, aur tum prateeati naheen karate, to yaadi maain tum se svarga kee baten kahoo, to fir kyonkar prateeti karoge?
13aur koi svarga par naheen chaddha, keval vaheen jo svarga se utara, arthata manushy ka putra jo svarga men haai.
14aur jis reeti se moosa ne jangal men sanp ko unche par chaddhaya, usee reeati se avashy haai ki manushy ka putra bhee unche par chaddhaya jaae.
15taaki jo koi vishvas kare us men anant jeevan paae..
16kyonaki parameshvar ne jagat se aeesa praem rakha ki us ne apana aekalauta putra de diya, taaki jo koi us par vishvas kare, vah nash n ho, parantu anant jeevan paae.
17parameshvar ne apane putra ko jagat men isaliye naheen bheja, ki jagat par dand kee agyaa de parantu isaaliye ki jagat usake dara uddhar paae.
18jo us par vishvas karata haai, us par dand kee agyaa naheen hotee, parantu jo us par vishvas naheen karata, vah doshaee tthara chuka isaliye ki us ne parameshvar ke aekalaute putra ke nam par vishvas naheen kiya.
19aur dand kee agyaa ka karan yah haai ki jyoti jagat men ai haai, aur manushyon ne andhakar ko jyoti se adhaik piry jana kyonki un ke kam bure the.
20kyonaki jo koi burai karata haai, vah jyoti se baair rakhta haai, aur jyoti ke nikatt naheen ata, aeesa n ho ki usake kamon par dosh lagaya jaae.
21parantu jo sachchai par chalata haaikh vah jyoti ke nikatt ata haai, taaki usake kam pragatt ho, ki vah parameshvar kee or se kiae gaae haain.
22is ke bad yeeshu aur usake chele yahoodiya desh men aae aur vah vahan un ke sathr rahakar bapaatisma dene laga.
23aur yoohanna bhee shaalema ke nikatt aeenon men bapaatisma deta tha. kyonaki vahan bahut jal tha aur log akar bapatisma lete the.
24kyonaki yoohanna us samay tak jelakhane men naheen dala gaya tha.
25vahan yoohanna ke chelon ka kisee yahoodee ke sath shuuddh ike vishay men vada-avivad hua.
26aur unhon ne yoohanna ke pas akar us se kaha, he rabbee, jo vyaktai yaradan ke par tere sath tha, aur jis kee too ne gavahee dee haai dek, vah bapatisma deta haai, aur sab usake pas ate haain.
27yoohanna ne uttr diya, jab tak manushy ko svarga se n diya jaae tab tak vah kuchh naheen pa sakata.
28tum to ap hee mere gavah ho, ki maain ne kaha, maain maseeh nahee, parantu usake age bheja gaya hoon.
29jis kee dulaahin haai, vahee doolha haai: parantu doolhe ka mitra jo khda hua us kee sunata haai, doolhe ke shabd se bahut hashairt hota haai ab mera yah harsha poora hua haai.
30avashy haai ki vah baddhe aur maain ghatoon..
31jo upar se ata haai, vah sarvottm haai, jo prathvee se ata haai vah prathvee ka haai aur prathvee kee hee baten kahata haai: jo svarga se ata haai, vah sab ke upar haai.
32jo kuchh us ne dekha, aur suna haai, usee kee gavahee deta haai aur koi us kee gavahee grahan naheen karata.
33jis ne us kee gavahee grahan kar lee us ne is bat par chhap de dee ki parameshvar sachcha haai.
34kyonaki jise parameshvar ne bheja haai, vah parameshvar kee baten kahata haai: kyonaki vah atma nap napakar naheen deta.
35pita putra se praem rakhta haai, aur us ne sab vastuen usake hath men de dee haain.
36jo putra par vishvas karata haai, anant jeevan usaka haai parantu jo putra kee naheen manata, vah jeevan ko naheen dekhega, parantu parameshvar ka krodha us par rahata haai..
