American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent unto him from Jerusalem priests and Levites to ask him, Who art thou?
and he looked upon Jesus as he walked, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God!
And they came unto John, and said to him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.
Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been sacrificed, even Christ:
For these things came to pass, {Exodus 12:46; Numbers 9:12; Psalm 34:20.}that the scripture might be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be {Or, crushed}broken.
but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, even the blood of Christ:
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Jehovah hath {Hebrew: made to light.}laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, {Isaiah 53:7 f.}He was led as a sheep to the slaughter;And as a lamb before his shearer is dumb,So he openeth not his mouth:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying: {Isaiah 53:4}Himself took our infirmities, and bare our diseases.
who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
so Christ also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, shall appear a second time, apart from sin, to them that wait for him, unto salvation.
The multitude therefore answered him, We have heard out of the law that the Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?
But they understood not the saying, and were afraid to ask him.
But we hoped that it was he who should redeem Israel. Yea and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things came to pass.
yea and a sword shall pierce through thine own soul; that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed.
And ye know that he was manifested to {Or, bear sins}take away sins; and in him is no sin.
but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
