The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegrooms voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete. 30 He must become greater; I must become less.[a] 31 The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth. The one who comes from heaven is above all. MARTHOMA SLEEHA SYRO MALABAR CATHEDRAL 3
