John 1:45-48 Common English Bible (CEB)

45. Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law and the Prophets: Jesus, Joseph’s son, from Nazareth."

46. Nathanael responded, "Can anything from Nazareth be good?" Philip said, "Come and see."

47. Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said about him, "Here is a genuine Israelite in whom there is no deceit."

48. Nathanael asked him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered, "Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree."
