Iyeyu anabwera kwa Yesu usiku ndi kumuuza kuti: ‘Rabi, tikudziwa kuti inu ndinu mphunzitsi wochokera kwa Mulungu; chifukwa munthu sangathe kuchita zizindikiro zimene inu mumachita ngati Mulungu sali naye.’ Poyankha Yesu anati kwa iye: ‘Ndithudi ndikukuuza, Munthu sangathe kuona ufumu wa Mulungu atapanda kubadwanso.’ Nikodemo anati kwa iye: ‘Munthu angabadwe bwanji ali wamkulu kale? Kodi angathe kulowa m’mimba mwa mayi wake ndi kubadwanso?’ Yesu anayankha nati: ‘Ndithudi ndikukuuza, Munthu sangathe kulowa mu ufumu wa Mulungu atapanda kubadwa mwa madzi ndi mzimu. Chobadwa mwa thupi n’chanyama, ndipo chobadwa mwa mzimu n’chauzimu. Usadabwe chifukwa ndakuuza kuti, Anthu inu muyenera kubadwanso. Mphepo imawombera kumene ikufuna, ndipo munthu amamva mkokomo wake, koma sadziwa kumene ikuchokera ndi kumene ikupita. N’chimodzimodzinso aliyense wobadwa mwa mzimu.’ Poyankha Nikodemo anati kwa iye: ‘Zimenezi zingatheke bwanji?’ Yesu anamuyankha nati: ‘Kodi iwe sudziwa zinthu zimenezi, chikhalirecho ndiwe mphunzitsi wa Isiraeli? Ndithudi ndikukuuza, Zimene ife timadziwa timazilankhula, ndipo zimene taona timazichitira umboni, koma anthu inu simulandira umboni umene timapereka. Ngati ndakuuzani zinthu za padziko lapansi koma inu osakhulupirira, mudzakhulupirira bwanji ndikakuuzani zinthu za kumwamba?’”—Yohane 3:1-12.
