John 5:29-31
1599 Geneva Bible
29 [a]And they shall come [b]forth, (A)that have done good, unto the [c]resurrection of life: but they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of condemnation.
30 [d]I can [e]do nothing of mine own self: [f]as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just, because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father who hath sent me.
31 If I (B)should bear witness of myself, my witness were not [g]true.
