1 Now a certain man, a Pharisee named Nicodemus, who was a member of the Jewish ruling council, 2 came to Jesus at night and said to him, |Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs that you do unless God is with him.| 3 Jesus replied, |I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born from above, he cannot see the kingdom of God.| 4 Nicodemus said to him, |How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter his mother's womb and be born a second time, can he?| 5 Jesus answered, |I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born of water and spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
