9Nicodemus responded and said to Him, 'How can these things be?' 10Jesus answered and said to him, 'You are the teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things? 11Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know and testify of what we have seen, and you people do not accept our testimony. 12If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? 13No one has ascended into heaven, except He who descended from heaven: the Son of Man. 14And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,King James Version

9Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? 10Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things 11Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. 12If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? 13And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. 14And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:Christian Standard Bible

11"Truly I tell you, we speak what we know and we testify to what we have seen, but you do not accept our testimony.
12If I have told you about earthly things and you don’t believe, how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?
13No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven —the Son of Man.

10Jesus replied, 'You are a respected Jewish teacher, and yet you don’t understand these things?
11I assure you, we tell you what we know and have seen, and yet you won’t believe our testimony.
12But if you don’t believe me when I tell you about earthly things, how can you possibly believe if I tell you about heavenly things?
13No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven.
14And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,
