Witnesses to Jesus. 31^v “If I testify on my own behalf, my testimony cannot be verified. 32But there is another^* who testifies on my behalf, and I know that the testimony he gives on my behalf is true. 33You sent emissaries to John, and he testified to the truth.^w 34I do not accept testimony from a human being, but I say this so that you may be saved.^x 35He was a burning and shining lamp,^* and for a while you were content to rejoice in his light.^y 36But I have testimony greater than John’s. The works that the Father gave me to accomplish, these works that I perform testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.^z 37Moreover, the Father who sent me has testified on my behalf. But you have never heard his voice nor seen his form,^a 38and you do not have his word remaining in you, because you do not believe in the one whom he has sent.^b 39You search^* the scriptures, because you think you have eternal life through them; even they testify on my behalf.^c 40But you do not want to come to me to have life.
