John 3:30-32

Amplified Bible

³⁰ He must increase [in prominence], but I must decrease.^(A)

³¹ “He who comes from [heaven] above is above all others; he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks [about things] of the earth [his viewpoint and experience are earthly]. He who comes from heaven is above all. ³² What He has [actually] seen and heard, of that He testifies; and yet no one accepts His testimony [as true].
