    2 came to Jesus at night and said to him,“Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs that you do unless God is with him.”

    3 Jesus replied,“I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born from above, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

    4 Nicodemus said to him,“How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter his mother’s womb and be born a second time, can he?”

    5 Jesus answered,“I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born of water and spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

    6 What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit.

    7 Do not be amazed that I said to you,‘You must all be born from above.’

    10 Jesus answered,“Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you don’t understand these things?

    11 I tell you the solemn truth, we speak about what we know and testify about what we have seen, but you people do not accept our testimony.

    12 If I have told you people about earthly things and you don’t believe, how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?

    13 No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven– the Son of Man.
