1:1 | In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. |
1:2 | He was in the beginning with God. |
1:3 | All things were made by Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. |
1:4 | In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. |
1:5 | And the light shines in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. |
1:6 | There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. |
1:7 | This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. |
1:8 | He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. |
1:9 | That was the true Light which gives light to every man who comes into the world. |
1:10 | He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, yet the world did not know Him. |
1:11 | He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. |
1:12 | But as many as received Him, to them He gave authority to become the sons of God, even to those who believe on His name: |
1:13 | who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. |
1:14 | And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. |
1:15 | John bore witness of Him and shouted, saying, "This was He of whom I said, 'He who comes after me is preferred before me, because He was before me.'" |
1:16 | And of His fullness we all have received, and grace for grace. |
1:17 | Because, the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. |
1:18 | No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him. |
1:19 | Now this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?" |
1:20 | And he confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, "I am not the Christ." |
1:21 | And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No." |
1:22 | Then they said to him, "Who are you, that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?" |
1:23 | He said: "I am 'the voice of one shouting in the wilderness: "Make straight the way of the LORD,"' as the prophet Isaiah said. |
1:24 | Now those who were sent were of the Pharisees. |
1:25 | And they asked him, and said to him, "Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?" |
1:26 | John answered them, saying, "I baptize with water, but there stands One among you whom you do not know. |
1:27 | It is He who, coming after me, is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to unloose." |
1:28 | These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. |
1:29 | The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! |
1:30 | This is He of whom I said, 'After me comes a Man who is preferred before me, because He was before me.' |
1:31 | And I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water." |
1:32 | And John bore record, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it remained upon Him. |
1:33 | And I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water, the same said to me, 'Upon whom you will see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.' |
1:34 | And I have seen and bare record that this is the Son of God." |
1:35 | Again, the next day, after John stood with two of his disciples, |
1:36 | looking upon Jesus as He walked, he said, "Behold the Lamb of God!" |
1:37 | And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. |
1:38 | Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, "What do you seek?" They said to Him, "Rabbi," (which is to say, when translated, Teacher), "where are You staying?" |
1:39 | He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where He was staying, and remained with Him that day (because it was about the tenth hour). |
1:40 | One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. |
1:41 | He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which is translated, the Christ). |
1:42 | And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus looked at him, He said, "You are Simon the son of Jonah. You will be called Cephas," (which is translated, A Stone). |
1:43 | The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found Philip, and said to him, "Follow Me." |
1:44 | Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. |
1:45 | Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found Him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph." |
1:46 | And Nathanael said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see." |
1:47 | Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and said of him, "Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!" |
1:48 | Nathanael said to Him, "How do You know me?" Jesus answered and said to him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you." |
1:49 | Nathanael replied and said to Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!" |
1:50 | Jesus replied and said to him, "Because I said to you, 'I saw you under the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these." |
1:51 | And He said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, after this you all will see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man." |
1:1 | In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. |
1:2 | The same was in the beginning with God. |
1:3 | All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. |
1:4 | In him was life; and the life was the light of men. |
1:5 | And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. |
1:6 | There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. |
1:7 | The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. |
1:8 | He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. |
1:9 | That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. |
1:10 | He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. |
1:11 | He came unto his own, and his own received him not. |
1:12 | But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: |
1:13 | Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. |
1:14 | And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. |
1:15 | John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. |
1:16 | And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. |
1:17 | For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. |
1:18 | No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. |
1:19 | And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou? |
1:20 | And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. |
1:21 | And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No. |
1:22 | Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself? |
1:23 | He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias. |
1:24 | And they which were sent were of the Pharisees. |
1:25 | And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? |
1:26 | John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; |
1:27 | He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose. |
1:28 | These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. |
1:29 | The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. |
1:30 | This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me. |
1:31 | And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water. |
1:32 | And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. |
1:33 | And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. |
1:34 | And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God. |
1:35 | Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples; |
1:36 | And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! |
1:37 | And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. |
1:38 | Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou? |
1:39 | He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour. |
1:40 | One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. |
1:41 | He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. |
1:42 | And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone. |
1:43 | The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me. |
1:44 | Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. |
1:45 | Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. |
1:46 | And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see. |
1:47 | Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! |
1:48 | Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee. |
1:49 | Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel. |
1:50 | Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these. |
1:51 | And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man. |
1:1 | In the beginning was the Word, & the Word was with God, and the Word was God. |
1:2 | The same was in the beginning with God. |
1:3 | All things were made by him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. |
1:4 | In him was life, and the life was the light of men. |
1:5 | And the light shineth in darknesse, and the darknesse comprehended it not. |
1:6 | There was a man sent from God, whose name was Iohn. |
1:7 | The same came for a witnesse, to beare witnesse of the light, that all men through him might beleeue. |
1:8 | Hee was not that light, but was sent to beare witnesse of that light. |
1:9 | That was the true light, which lighteth euery man that commeth into the world. |
1:10 | Hee was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. |
1:11 | Hee came vnto his owne, and his owne receiued him not. |
1:12 | But as many as receiued him, to them gaue hee power to become the sonnes of God, euen to them that beleeue on his Name: |
1:13 | Which were borne, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. |
1:14 | And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among vs (& we beheld his glory, the glory as of the onely begotten of the Father) full of grace and trueth. |
1:15 | Iohn bare witnesse of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that commeth after me, is preferred before me, for he was before me. |
1:16 | And of his fulnesse haue all wee receiued, and grace for grace. |
1:17 | For the Law was giuen by Moses, but grace and trueth came by Iesus Christ. |
1:18 | No man hath seene God at any time: the onely begotten Sonne, which is in the bosome of the Father, he hath declared him. |
1:19 | And this is the record of Iohn, when the Iewes sent Priests and Leuites from Hierusalem, to aske him, Who art thou? |
1:20 | And he confessed, and denied not: but confessed, I am not the Christ. |
1:21 | And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that Prophet? And hee answered, No. |
1:22 | Then said they vnto him, Who art thou, that we may giue an answere to them that sent vs? What sayest thou of thy selfe? |
1:23 | He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wildernesse: Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the Prophet Esaias. |
1:24 | And they which were sent, were of the Pharises. |
1:25 | And they asked him, and said vnto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that Prophet? |
1:26 | Iohn answered them, saying, I baptize with water, but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not, |
1:27 | He it is, who comming after me, is preferred before me, whose shoes latchet I am not worthy to vnloose. |
1:28 | These things were done in Bethabara beyond Iordane, where Iohn was baptizing. |
1:29 | The next day, Iohn seeth Iesus comming vnto him, and saith, Behold the Lambe of God, which taketh away the sinne of the world. |
1:30 | This is he of whom I said, After me commeth a man, which is preferred before me: for he was before me. |
1:31 | And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therfore am I come baptizing with water. |
1:32 | And Iohn bare record saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heauen, like a Doue, and it abode vpon him. |
1:33 | And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said vnto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, & remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the holy Ghost. |
1:34 | And I saw, and bare record, that this is the sonne of God. |
1:35 | Againe the next day after, Iohn stood, and two of his disciples. |
1:36 | And looking vpon Iesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lambe of God. |
1:37 | And the two disciples heard him speake, and they followed Iesus. |
1:38 | Then Iesus turned, and saw them following, and saith vnto them, What seeke ye? They said vnto him, Rabbi, (which is to say being interpreted, Master) where dwellest thou? |
1:39 | He saith vnto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth houre. |
1:40 | One of the two which heard Iohn speake, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peters brother. |
1:41 | He first findeth his owne brother Simon, and saith vnto him, We haue found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. |
1:42 | And he brought him to Iesus. And when Iesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the sonne of Iona, thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, a stone. |
1:43 | The day following, Iesus would goe foorth into Galilee, & findeth Philip, & saith vnto him, Follow me. |
1:44 | Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the citie of Andrew and Peter. |
1:45 | Philip findeth Nathaneel, and saith vnto him, We haue found him of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets did write, Iesus of Nazareth the sonne of Ioseph. |
1:46 | And Nathaneel said vnto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith vnto him, Come and see. |
1:47 | Iesus saw Nathaneel comming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed in whom is no guile. |
1:48 | Nathaneel sayeth vnto him, Whence knowest thou me? Iesus answered, and said vnto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast vnder the figge tree, I saw thee. |
1:49 | Nathaneel answered, and saith vnto him, Rabbi, thou art the Sonne of God, thou art the king of Israel. |
1:50 | Iesus answered, and said vnto him, Because I said vnto thee, I saw thee vnder the figge tree, beleeuest thou? thou shalt see greater things then these. |
1:51 | And hee saith vnto him, Uerily, verily I say vnto you, heereafter yee shall see heauen open, and the Angels of God ascending, and descending vpon the sonne of man. |
