Exegesis
The future middle lēmpsesthe {λήμψεσθε | lḗmpsesthe} marks their willingness to receive such a person as a future but expected response, sharpening the irony between present rejection of the true envoy and future acceptance of a merely self-authorized one. In translation, the basic clause order is preserved to maintain the contrast between the two “coming” clauses and the two “receiving” verbs, while varying English wording in the dynamic rendering to show the relational nuance of reception.
In context — John 5:43
I have come in the name of My Father , and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.
