37 And the Father Himself, who sent Me, (A)has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, (B)nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. 39 (C)You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and (D)these are they which testify of Me. 40 (E)But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.

Testimony of the Father
37 And the Father who sent Me, (A)He has testified about Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 Also you do not have (B)His word remaining in you, because you do not believe Him whom He (C)sent.
Testimony of the Scripture
39 [a](D)You examine the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is (E)those very Scriptures that testify about Me; 40 and yet you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.

Testimony of the Father
37 And the Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have never heard His voice nor seen His form [His majesty and greatness—what He is like]. 38 You do not have His word (Scripture) abiding in you [actually living in your hearts and minds], because you do not believe in Him whom He has sent.
Testimony of the Scripture
39 [a]You search and keep on searching and examining the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and yet it is those [very Scriptures] that testify about Me; 40 and still you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.
