3 Jhesus answerde, and seide to hym, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, but a man be borun ayen, he may not se the kyngdom of God.

3 Jhesus answerde, and seide to hym, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, but a man be borun ayen, he may not se the kyngdom of God.4 Nychodeme seide to hym, Hou may a man be borun, whanne he is eeld? whether he may entre ayen in to his modris wombe, and be borun ayen?5 Jhesus answeride, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, but a man be borun ayen of watir, and of the Hooli Goost, he may not entre in to the kyngdom of God.6 That that is borun of the fleisch, is fleisch; and that that is borun of spirit, is spirit.7 Wondre thou not, for Y seide to thee, It bihoueth you to be borun ayen.8 The spirit brethith where he wole, and thou herist his vois, but thou wost not, fro whennus he cometh, ne whidir he goith; so is ech man that is borun of the spirit.

5 Jhesus answeride, Treuli, treuli, Y seie to thee, but a man be borun ayen of watir, and of the Hooli Goost, he may not entre in to the kyngdom of God.6 That that is borun of the fleisch, is fleisch; and that that is borun of spirit, is spirit.7 Wondre thou not, for Y seide to thee, It bihoueth you to be borun ayen.

15 Treuli Y seie to you, who euer resseyueth not the kyngdom of God as a litil child, he schal not entre in to it.

1 In that our the disciplis camen to Jhesu, and seiden, Who, gessist thou, is gretter in the kyngdom of heuenes?2 And Jhesus clepide a litil child, and putte hym in the myddil of hem;3 and seide, Y seie treuthe to you, but ye be turned, and maad as litle children, ye schulen not entre in to the kyngdom of heuenes.4 Therfor who euer mekith hym as this litil child, he is gretter in the kyngdom of heuenes.

17 Therfor if ony newe creature is in Crist, the elde thingis ben passid.

4 For we ben togidere biried with hym bi baptym in to deth; that as Crist aroos fro deth bi the glorie of the fadir, so walke we in a newnesse of lijf.5 For if we plauntid togidere ben maad to the licnesse of his deth, also we schulen be of the licnesse of his risyng ayen;6 witynge this thing, that oure olde man is crucified togidere, that the bodi of synne be distruyed, that we serue no more to synne.7 For he that is deed, is iustefied fro synne.

4 For we ben togidere biried with hym bi baptym in to deth; that as Crist aroos fro deth bi the glorie of the fadir, so walke we in a newnesse of lijf.

11 So ye deme you silf to be deed to synne, but lyuynge to God in Jhesu Crist oure Lord.

20 And now lyue not Y, but Crist lyueth in me. But that Y lyue now in fleisch, Y lyue in the feith of Goddis sone, that louede me, and yaf hym silf for me.

22 Do ye awey bi the elde lyuyng the elde man, that is corrupt bi the desiris of errour;23 and be ye renewlid in the spirit of youre soule;24 and clothe ye the newe man, which is maad aftir God in riytwisnesse and hoolynesse of treuthe.

9 Nyle ye lie togidere; spuyle ye you fro the elde man with his dedes, and clothe ye the newe man,10 that is maad newe ayen in to the knowing of God, aftir the ymage of hym that made hym;11 where is not male and female, hethene man and Jew, circumcisioun and prepucie, barbarus and Scita, bonde man and fre man, but alle thingis and in alle thingis Crist.

12 But hou many euer resseyueden hym, he yaf to hem power to be maad the sones of God, to hem that bileueden in his name; the whiche not of bloodis,13 nether of the wille of fleische, nether of the wille of man, but ben borun of God.

3 Blessid be God, and the fadir of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, which bi his greet merci bigat vs ayen in to lyuynge hope, bi the ayen risyng of Jhesu Crist fro deth,4 in to eritage vncorruptible, and vndefoulid, and that schal not fade, that is kept in heuenes for you,

23 And be ye borun ayen, not of corruptible seed, but vncorruptible, bi the word of lyuynge God, and dwellynge in to with outen ende.

2 as now borun yonge children, resonable, with out gile, coueite ye mylk, that in it ye wexe in to helthe; if netheles ye han tastid,3 that the Lord is swete.

1 Se ye what maner charite the fadir yaf to vs, that we be named the sones of God, and ben hise sones. For this thing the world knewe not vs, for it knew not hym.2 Moost dere britheren, now we ben the sones of God, and yit it apperide not, what we schulen be. We witen, that whanne he schal appere, we schulen be lijk hym, for we schulen se hym as he is.

4 But aftir that the fulfilling of tyme cam, God sente his sone,5 maad of a womman, maad vndur the lawe, that he schulde ayenbie hem that weren vndur the lawe, that we schulden vnderfonge the adopcioun of sones.

19 And Y schal yyue to hem oon herte, and Y schal yyue a newe spirit in the entrails of hem; and Y schal take awei a stony herte fro the fleisch of hem, and Y schal yyue to hem an herte of fleisch;20 that thei go in my comaundementis, and kepe my domes, and do tho; and that thei be in to a puple to me, and Y be in to God to hem.

4 but God, that is riche in merci, for his ful myche charite in which he louyde vs,5 yhe, whanne we weren deed in synnes, quikenede vs togidere in Crist, bi whos grace ye ben sauyd, and ayen reiside togidere,
