Therefore, do not be surprised when I say, ‘You must be born again from above.’

The wind blows wherever it pleases, and you hear its sound, but you don’t know where it comes from or where it is going. It is like that with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

Nicodemus asked again:

“How can this be?”

Jesus answered:

“You are a teacher in Israel, and you don’t know these things!

Truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen, but you do not accept our testimony.

If you don’t believe when I talk about earthly things, how will you believe when I talk about heavenly things?

No one has ever gone up to heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man.

Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.
