John 1:34
32 Then John testified, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and resting on Him.
33 I myself did not know Him, but the One who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”
35 The next day John was there again with two of his disciples.
36 When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
