John 1:40–49

⁴⁰Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard from John, and followed him; ⁴¹this one doth first find his own brother Simon, and saith to him, ‘We have found the Messiah,’ (which is, being interpreted, The Anointed,) ⁴²and he brought him unto Jesus: and having looked upon him, Jesus saith, ‘Thou art Simon, the son of Jonas, thou shalt be called Cephas,’ (which is interpreted, A rock.)

⁴³On the morrow, he willed to go forth to Galilee, and he findeth Philip, and saith to him, ‘Be following me.’ ⁴⁴And Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter; ⁴⁵Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, ‘Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and the prophets, we have found, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is from Nazareth;’ ⁴⁶and Nathanael said to him, ‘Out of Nazareth is any good thing able to be?’ Philip said to him, ‘Come and see.’ ⁴⁷Jesus saw Nathanael coming unto him, and he saith concerning him, ‘Lo, truly an Israelite, in whom guile is not;’ ⁴⁸Nathanael saith to him, ‘Whence me dost thou know?’ Jesus answered and said to him, ‘Before Philip’s calling thee—thou being under the fig-tree—I saw thee.’ ⁴⁹Nathanael answered and saith to him, ‘Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.’
