John  


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 came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.
1 : 4 In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.
1 : 5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
1 : 6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
1 : 7 He came as a witness, to testify about the Light, so that all might believe through him.
1 : 8 He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
1 : 9 There was the true Light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
1 : 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
1 : 11 He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him.
1 : 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in 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 became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
1 : 15 John testified about Him and cried out, saying, "This was He of whom I said, `He who comes after me has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.`"
1 : 16 For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace.
1 : 17 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
1 : 18 No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.
1 : 19 This is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent to him 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 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, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?"
1 : 23 He said, "I am A VOICE OF ONE CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS, `MAKE STRAIGHT THE WAY OF THE LORD,` as Isaiah the prophet said."
1 : 24 Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.
1 : 25 They asked him, and said to him, "Why then are you baptizing, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"
1 : 26 John answered them saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands One whom you do not know.
1 : 27 It is He who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie.
1 : 28 These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
1 : 29 The next day he 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 on behalf of whom I said, `After me comes a Man who has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.`
1 : 31 I did not recognize Him, but so that He might be manifested to Israel, I came baptizing in water.
1 : 32 John testified saying, "I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and He remained upon Him.
1 : 33 I did not recognize Him, but He who sent me to baptize in water said to me, `He upon whom you see the Spirit descending and remaining upon Him, this is the One who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.`
1 : 34 I myself have seen, and have testified that this is the Son of God.
1 : 35 Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,
1 : 36 and he looked at Jesus as He walked, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!"
1 : 37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
1 : 38 And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" They said to Him, "Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?"
1 : 39 He said to them, "Come, and you will see." So they came and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day, for 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 found first his own brother Simon and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which translated means Christ).
1 : 42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon the son of John; you shall be called Cephas" (which is translated Peter).
1 : 43 The next day He purposed to go into Galilee, and He found Philip And Jesus said to him, "Follow Me."
1 : 44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of 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 also the Prophets wrote--Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."
1 : 46 Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing 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 there 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 answered Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God; You are the King of Israel."
1 : 50 Jesus answered and said to him, "Because I said to you that 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, you will see the heavens opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
