Juan 3 Vulgata Clementina
Audio: Reina-Valera Antigua (RVA), leído por Joyfull · Sobre las grabaciones
1 Erat autem homo ex pharisæis, Nicodemus nomine, princeps Judæorum.
1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
2 Hic venit ad Jesum nocte, et dixit ei: Rabbi, scimus quia a Deo venisti magister, nemo enim potest hæc signa facere, quæ tu facis, nisi fuerit Deus cum eo.
2 He came to Jesus by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him.”
3 Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Amen, amen dico tibi, nisi quis renatus fuerit denuo, non potest videre regnum Dei.
3 Jesus answered him, “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom.”
4 Dicit ad eum Nicodemus: Quomodo potest homo nasci, cum sit senex? numquid potest in ventrem matris suæ iterato introire et renasci?
4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
5 Respondit Jesus: Amen, amen dico tibi, nisi quis renatus fuerit ex aqua, et Spiritu Sancto, non potest introire in regnum Dei.
5 Jesus answered, “Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born of water and Spirit, he can’t enter into God’s Kingdom.
6 Quod natum est ex carne, caro est: et quod natum est ex spiritu, spiritus est.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Non mireris quia dixi tibi: oportet vos nasci denuo.
7 Don’t marvel that I said to you, ‘You must all be born anew.’
8 Spiritus ubi vult spirat, et vocem ejus audis, sed nescis unde veniat, aut quo vadat: sic est omnis qui natus est ex spiritu.
8 The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but don’t know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
9 Respondit Nicodemus, et dixit ei: Quomodo possunt hæc fieri?
9 Nicodemus answered him, “How can these things be?”
10 Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Tu es magister in Israël, et hæc ignoras?
10 Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel, and don’t understand these things?
11 amen, amen dico tibi, quia quod scimus loquimur, et quod vidimus testamur, et testimonium nostrum non accipitis.
11 Most certainly I tell you, we speak that which we know and testify of that which we have seen, and you don’t receive our witness.
12 Si terrena dixi vobis, et non creditis: quomodo, si dixero vobis cælestia, credetis?
12 If I told you earthly things and you don’t believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
13 Et nemo ascendit in cælum, nisi qui descendit de cælo, Filius hominis, qui est in cælo.
13 No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven.
14 Et sicut Moyses exaltavit serpentem in deserto, ita exaltari oportet Filium hominis:
14 As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
15 ut omnis qui credit in ipsum, non pereat, sed habeat vitam æternam.
15 that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 Sic enim Deus dilexit mundum, ut Filium suum unigenitum daret: ut omnis qui credit in eum, non pereat, sed habeat vitam æternam.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only born Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
17 Non enim misit Deus Filium suum in mundum, ut judicet mundum, sed ut salvetur mundus per ipsum.
17 For God didn’t send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
18 Qui credit in eum, non judicatur; qui autem non credit, jam judicatus est: quia non credit in nomine unigeniti Filii Dei.
18 He who believes in him is not judged. He who doesn’t believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only born Son of God.
19 Hoc est autem judicium: quia lux venit in mundum, et dilexerunt homines magis tenebras quam lucem: erant enim eorum mala opera.
19 This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil.
20 Omnis enim qui male agit, odit lucem, et non venit ad lucem, ut non arguantur opera ejus:
20 For everyone who does evil hates the light and doesn’t come to the light, lest his works would be exposed.
21 qui autem facit veritatem, venit ad lucem, ut manifestentur opera ejus, quia in Deo sunt facta.
21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God.”
22 Post hæc venit Jesus et discipuli ejus in terram Judæam: et illic demorabatur cum eis, et baptizabat.
22 After these things, Jesus came with his disciples into the land of Judea. He stayed there with them and baptized.
23 Erat autem et Joannes baptizans, in Ænnon, juxta Salim: quia aquæ multæ erant illic, et veniebant et baptizabantur.
23 John also was baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there was much water there. They came and were baptized;
24 Nondum enim missus fuerat Joannes in carcerem.
24 for John was not yet thrown into prison.
25 Facta est autem quæstio ex discipulis Joannis cum Judæis de purificatione.
25 Therefore a dispute arose on the part of John’s disciples with some Jews about purification.
26 Et venerunt ad Joannem, et dixerunt ei: Rabbi, qui erat tecum trans Jordanem, cui tu testimonium perhibuisti, ecce hic baptizat, et omnes veniunt ad eum.
26 They came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified, behold, he baptizes, and everyone is coming to him.”
27 Respondit Joannes, et dixit: Non potest homo accipere quidquam, nisi fuerit ei datum de cælo.
27 John answered, “A man can receive nothing unless it has been given him from heaven.
28 Ipsi vos mihi testimonium perhibetis, quod dixerim: Non sum ego Christus: sed quia missus sum ante illum.
28 You yourselves testify that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent before him.’
29 Qui habet sponsam, sponsus est: amicus autem sponsi, qui stat, et audit eum, gaudio gaudet propter vocem sponsi. Hoc ergo gaudium meum impletum est.
29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. Therefore my joy is made full.
30 Illum oportet crescere, me autem minui.
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
31 Qui desursum venit, super omnes est. Qui est de terra, de terra est, et de terra loquitur. Qui de cælo venit, super omnes est.
31 “He who comes from above is above all. He who is from the earth belongs to the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.
32 Et quod vidit, et audivit, hoc testatur: et testimonium ejus nemo accipit.
32 What he has seen and heard, of that he testifies; and no one receives his witness.
33 Qui accepit ejus testimonium signavit, quia Deus verax est.
33 He who has received his witness has set his seal to this, that God is true.
34 Quem enim misit Deus, verba Dei loquitur: non enim ad mensuram dat Deus spiritum.
34 For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for God gives the Spirit without measure.
35 Pater diligit Filium et omnia dedit in manu ejus.
35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.
36 Qui credit in Filium, habet vitam æternam; qui autem incredulus est Filio, non videbit vitam, sed ira Dei manet super eum.
36 One who believes in the Son has eternal life, but one who disobeys the Son won’t see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.”

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
We observe, beloved, that the intimation with which we yesterday excited your attention has brought you together with more alacrity, and in greater number than usual; but meanwhile let us, if you please, pay our debt of a discourse on the Gospel Lesson, which comes in due course.

Little children who go daily to their teachers receive their lessons, and repeat them, and never cease from this kind of acquisition, but sometimes employ nights as well as days, and this they are compelled to do for perishable and transient things.

For Christ also said, "Except ye be born again, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven." Now, that it is impossible for those who have once been born to enter into their mothers' wombs, is manifest to all.
… that men can be saved in no other way from the old wound of the serpent than by believing in Him who, in the likeness of sinful flesh, is lifted up from the earth upon the tree of martyrdom, and draws all things to Himself, and vivifies the dead.
These I directed, O sweet Truth, to Thy inward melody, pondering on the "fair and fit," and longing to stay and listen to Thee, and to rejoice greatly at the Bridegroom's voice, and I could not; for by the voices of my own errors was I driven forth, and by the weight of my own pride was I sinking into …
