25 Y hubo cuestión entre los discípulos de Juan y los Judíos acerca de la purificación.
26 Y vinieron á Juan, y dijéronle: Rabbí, el que estaba contigo de la otra parte del Jordán, del cual tú diste testimonio, he aquí bautiza, y todos vienen á él.
27 Respondió Juan, y dijo: No puede el hombre recibir algo, si no le fuere dado del cielo.
28 Vosotros mismos me sois testigos que dije: Yo no soy el Cristo, sino que soy enviado delante de él.
29 El que tiene la esposa, es el esposo; mas el amigo del esposo, que está en pie y le oye, se goza grandemente de la voz del esposo; así pues, este mi gozo es cumplido.
