John 1:40–49

^40aOne of the two who heard John speak and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

⁴¹He first ^*found his own brother Simon and ^*said to him, “We have found the ^aMessiah” (which translated means ¹Christ).

⁴²He brought him to Jesus. When Jesus looked at him, He said, “You are Simon the son of ^aJohn; you shall be called ^bCephas” (which is translated ^1cPeter).

^43aOn the next day, He desired to go into ^bGalilee, and He ^*found ^cPhilip. And Jesus ^*said to him, “^dFollow Me.”

⁴⁴Now ^aPhilip was from ^bBethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

^45aPhilip ^*found ^bNathanael and ^*said to him, “We have found Him of whom ^cMoses in the Law and also ^dthe Prophets wrote—Jesus of ^eNazareth, ^fthe son of Joseph.”

⁴⁶And Nathanael said to him, “^aCan any good thing come out of Nazareth?” ^bPhilip ^*said to him, “Come and see.”

⁴⁷Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and ^*said about him, “Behold, truly an ^aIsraelite in whom there is no deceit!”

⁴⁸Nathanael ^*said to Him, “From where do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before ^aPhilip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”

⁴⁹Nathanael answered Him, “^aRabbi, You are ^bthe Son of God; You are the ^cKing of Israel.”
