3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man gbe born ||hagain, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, hhHow can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of ijwater and of jthe Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 kThat which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 kkMarvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born ||again. 8 lThe wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
