5. Jesus answered, `Verily, verily, I say to thee, If any one may not be born of water, and the Spirit, he is not able to enter into the reign of God;
6. that which hath been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which hath been born of the Spirit is spirit.
7. `Thou mayest not wonder that I said to thee, It behoveth you to be born from above;
8. the Spirit where he willeth doth blow, and his voice thou dost hear, but thou hast not known whence he cometh, and whither he goeth; thus is every one who hath been born of the Spirit.'
9. Nicodemus answered and said to him, `How are these things able to happen?'
10. Jesus answered and said to him, `Thou art the teacher of Israel--and these things thou dost not know!
11. `Verily, verily, I say to thee--What we have known we speak, and what we have seen we testify, and our testimony ye do not receive;
12. if the earthly things I said to you, and ye do not believe, how, if I shall say to you the heavenly things, will ye believe?
