Context
27Yohana akawajibu, “Hakuna mtu yeyote awezaye kupata kitu chochote isipokuwa kile tu alichopewa kutoka mbinguni. 28Ninyi wenyewe ni mashahidi wangu kwamba nilisema, ‘Mimi si Kristo,* ila nimetumwa nimtangulie.’ 29Bibi arusi ni wa bwana arusi. Lakini rafiki yake bwana arusi anayesimama karibu naye na kusikiliza kutoka kwake, hufurahi sana aisikiapo sauti ya bwana arusi. Kwa sababu hii furaha yangu imekamilika. 30Yeye hana budi kuwa mkuu zaidi na mimi nizidi kuwa mdogo.” 31“Yeye ajaye kutoka juu yu juu ya yote, yeye aliye wa duniani ni wa dunia, naye huzungumza mambo ya duniani. Yeye aliyekuja kutoka mbinguni, yu juu ya yote.
