Hii ndiyo sababu ya hukumu, ya kwamba nuru imekuja ulimwenguni, lakini wanadamu wakapenda giza zaidi ya nuru kwa sababu matendo yao yalikuwa maovu.

In context
16 Kwa maana jinsi hii Mungu aliupenda ulimwengu, kwamba akamtoa mwanae wa pekee, ili kwamba mtu yeyote amwaminiye asiangamie bali awe na uzima wa milele.
17 Kwa sababu Mungu hakumtuma mwanae duniani ili auhukumu ulimwengu, bali kwamba ulimwengu uokolewe katika yeye.
18 Amwaminiye Yeye hatahukumiwa. Yeye asiyemwamini tayari ameshahukumiwa kwa sababu hajaliamini jina la Mwana pekee wa Mungu.
19 Hii ndiyo sababu ya hukumu, ya kwamba nuru imekuja ulimwenguni, lakini wanadamu wakapenda giza zaidi ya nuru kwa sababu matendo yao yalikuwa maovu.
20 kila mtu atendaye mabaya huichukia nuru wala haji nuruni ili matendo yake yasije yakawekwa wazi.
21 Lakini, yeye atendaye kweli huja kwenye nuru ili matendo yake yaonekane kwamba yametendwa kwa utiifu wa Mungu.
22 Baada ya haya, Yesu pamoja na wanafunzi walienda katika nchi ya Yudea. Huko alitumia muda pamoja nao na alikuwa akibatiza.
