John 3:7

← John 3:6 [words of Jesus]	John 3:7 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	John 3:8 [words of Jesus] →
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.	Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.	The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
