John 3:30 Douay-Rheims

He must increase, but I must decrease.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

He (Christ) must increase, not in virtue and perfection, with which he is replenished, but in the opinion of the world, when they begin to know him, and believe in him: and in like manner, I must be diminished, when they know how much he is above me. (Witham)
