John 1:40-46

40

One of the two who heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

41

He first found his brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which means Christ).

42

He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "So you are Simon the son of John? You shall be called Cephas" (which means Peter).

43

The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. And he found Philip and said to him, "Follow me."

44

Now Philip was from Beth-sa'ida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45

Philip found Nathan'a-el, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

46

Nathan'a-el said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."
