John 1:40–49

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

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

⁴²He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of ^1aJohn; you shall be called ^bCephas” (which is translated ^2cPeter).

^43aThe next day He purposed to go into ^bGalilee, and He found ^cPhilip. And Jesus said to him, “^dFollow Me.”

⁴⁴Now ^aPhilip was from ^bBethsaida, of 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 the Prophets wrote—Jesus of ^dNazareth, ^ethe son of Joseph.”

⁴⁶Nathanael 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 of him, “Behold, an ^aIsraelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!”

⁴⁸Nathanael said to Him, “How 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.”
