John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
aadau vaada aasiit sa ca vaada ii"svare. na saardhamaasiit sa vaada. h svayamii"svara eva|
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
sa aadaavii"svare. na sahaasiit|
3 All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
tena sarvva. m vastu sas. rje sarvve. su s. r.s. tavastu. su kimapi vastu tenaas. r.s. ta. m naasti|
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
sa jiivanasyaakaara. h, tacca jiivana. m manu. syaa. naa. m jyoti. h
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
yohan naamaka eko manuja ii"svare. na pre. sayaa ncakre|
7 The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
tadvaaraa yathaa sarvve vi"svasanti tadartha. m sa tajjyoti. si pramaa. na. m daatu. m saak. sisvaruupo bhuutvaagamat,
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
sa svaya. m tajjyoti rna kintu tajjyoti. si pramaa. na. m daatumaagamat|
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
jagatyaagatya ya. h sarvvamanujebhyo diipti. m dadaati tadeva satyajyoti. h|
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world did not recognize him.
sa yajjagadas. rjat tanmadya eva sa aasiit kintu jagato lokaasta. m naajaanan|
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own did not receive him.
nijaadhikaara. m sa aagacchat kintu prajaasta. m naag. rhlan|
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:
tathaapi ye ye tamag. rhlan arthaat tasya naamni vya"svasan tebhya ii"svarasya putraa bhavitum adhikaaram adadaat|
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
te. saa. m jani. h "so. nitaanna "saariirikaabhilaa. saanna maanavaanaamicchaato na kintvii"svaraadabhavat|
14 The Word became flesh and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the only born Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.

15 John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”

16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
apara nca tasya puur. nataayaa vaya. m sarvve krama"sa. h krama"sonugraha. m praaptaa. h|
17 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.

18 No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.

19 This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”

20 He declared, and did not deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
tadaa sa sviik. rtavaan naapahnuutavaan naaham abhi. sikta itya"ngiik. rtavaan|
21 They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
tadaa te. ap. rcchan tarhi ko bhavaan? ki. m eliya. h? sovadat na; tataste. ap. rcchan tarhi bhavaan sa bhavi. syadvaadii? sovadat naaha. m sa. h|
22 They said therefore to him, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
tadaa te. ap. rcchan tarhi bhavaan ka. h? vaya. m gatvaa prerakaan tvayi ki. m vak. syaama. h? svasmin ki. m vadasi?
23 He said, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”

24 The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
ye pre. sitaaste phiruu"silokaa. h|
25 They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
tadaa te. ap. rcchan yadi naabhi. siktosi eliyosi na sa bhavi. syadvaadyapi naasi ca, tarhi lokaan majjayasi kuta. h?
26 John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.

27 He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loosen.”

28 These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

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!
pare. ahani yohan svanika. tamaagacchanta. m yi"su. m vilokya praavocat jagata. h paapamocakam ii"svarasya me. sa"saavaka. m pa"syata|
30 This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’

31 I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
apara. m naahamena. m pratyabhij naatavaan kintu israayellokaa ena. m yathaa paricinvanti tadabhipraaye. naaha. m jale majjayitumaagaccham|
32 John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
puna"sca yohanaparameka. m pramaa. na. m datvaa kathitavaan vihaayasa. h kapotavad avatarantamaatmaanam asyoparyyavati. s.thanta. m ca d. r.s. tavaanaham|
33 I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water said to me, ‘On whomever you will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.’
naahamena. m pratyabhij naatavaan iti satya. m kintu yo jale majjayitu. m maa. m prairayat sa evemaa. m kathaamakathayat yasyoparyyaatmaanam avatarantam avati. s.thanta nca drak. sayasi saeva pavitre aatmani majjayi. syati|
34 I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”

35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
pare. ahani yohan dvaabhyaa. m "si. syaabhyaa. m saarddhe. m ti. s.than
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
yi"su. m gacchanta. m vilokya gaditavaan, ii"svarasya me. sa"saavaka. m pa"syata. m|
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
imaa. m kathaa. m "srutvaa dvau "si. syau yii"so. h pa"scaad iiyatu. h|
38 Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), “where are you staying?”

39 He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.

40 One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
yau dvau yohano vaakya. m "srutvaa yi"so. h pa"scaad aagamataa. m tayo. h "simonpitarasya bhraataa aandriya. h
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).

42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).

43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”

44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

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.”

46 Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”

47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”

48 Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”

49 Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”

50 Jesus answered him, “Because I told you, ‘I saw you underneath the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these!”

51 He said to him, “Most certainly, I tell you all, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
