John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word himself was with Aloha, and Aloha was the Word himself.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
This was in the beginning with Aloha.
3 Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made.
Every thing by his hand was made; and without him also was not one thing made that was made.
4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.
In him was life, and the life is the light of the sons of man;
5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
and the Light himself in the darkness shineth, and the darkness perceived him not.
6 There came a man who was sent from God. His name was John.
There was a man who was sent from Aloha, his name (was) Juchanon.
7 He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe.
He came for the testimony, to testify concerning the Light, that all men might believe through his ministry.
8 He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
He was not the Light himself, but came to testify concerning the Light.
9 The true Light who gives light to every man was coming into the world.
For that was the true Light that enlighteneth every man who cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him.
In the world was he, and the world by his hand had been made, and the world knew him not.
11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
He came to his own, and his own received him not.
12 But to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God—
But they who received him, he gave to them power, that the sons of Aloha they should become, to those who believe in his name.
13 children born not of blood, nor of the desire or will of man, but born of God.
These, not from blood, nor from the will of the flesh, nor from the will of man, but from Aloha, are born.
14 The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
And the Word flesh was made, and tabernacled with us; and we saw his glory, the glory as of the one-begotten who (was) from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 John testified concerning Him. He cried out, saying, “This is He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’”
Juchanon testified concerning him, and cried, and said, This is he of whom I said, that he cometh after me, and was before me, because he is anterior to me.
16 From His fullness we have all received grace upon grace.
And from his fulness we all have received, and grace for grace.
17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
For the law by the hand of Musha was given; but the truth and the grace were by Jeshu Meshicha.
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is Himself God and is at the Father’s side, has made Him known.
ALOHA no man hath ever seen: the one-begotten God, he who is in the bosom of his Father, he hath declared him.
19 And this was John’s testimony when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him, “Who are you?”
And this was the testimony of Juchanon, when the Jihudoyee sent to him from Urishlem priests and Levoyee to demand of him, Who art thou?
20 He did not refuse to confess, but openly declared, “I am not the Christ.”
And he confessed, and denied not, but confessed, I am not the Meshicha.
21 “Then who are you?” they inquired. “Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.”
And they asked him again, What then? art thou Elia? And he said, I am not. Art thou the Prophet? And he said, No.
22 So they said to him, “Who are you? We need an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
And they said to him, And who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?
23 John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet: “I am a voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’”
He saith, I am the voice which crieth in the wilderness, Make plain the way of the Lord, as said Eshaia the prophet.
24 Then the Pharisees who had been sent
But they who were sent were from the Pharishee.
25 asked him, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”
And they demanded and said to him, Why then baptizest thou, if thou art not the Meshicha, nor Elia, nor the Prophet?
26 “I baptize with water,” John replied, “but among you stands One you do not know.
Juchanon answered and said to them, I baptize you with waters; but he standeth among you whom you know not:
27 He is the One who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”
he it is who cometh after me, and he was before me; he, the latchets of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose.
28 All this happened at Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
These things were done in Bethania, at the passage of the Jurdan, where Juchanon was baptizing.
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
AND the day after, Juchanon seeth Jeshu, who was coming to him; and he said, Behold the Lamb of Aloha, who beareth the sin of the world!
30 This is He of whom I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’
This is he concerning whom I said, After me cometh a man, and he was before me, because he is anterior to me.
31 I myself did not know Him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that He might be revealed to Israel.”
And I knew him not, but that he should be made known unto Isroel, therefore have I come with waters to baptize.
32 Then John testified, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and resting on Him.
And Juchanon testified and said, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven as a dove, and it remained upon him.
33 I myself did not know Him, but the One who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
And I knew him not: but he who sent me to baptize with water, he said to me, He upon whom thou seest the Spirit descend and remain, this baptizeth with the Spirit of Holiness:
34 I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”
and I saw, and bare witness that this is the Son of Aloha
35 The next day John was there again with two of his disciples.
And the day after Juchanon stood, and two of his disciples;
36 When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
and, contemplating Jeshu as he walked, he said, Behold the Lamb of Aloha!
37 And when the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.
And his two disciples heard him as he spake, and they went after Jeshu.
38 Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”
And Jeshu turned (himself), and saw them coming after him, and said to them, Whom seek you? They say to him, Raban, where dwellest thou?
39 “Come and see,” He replied. So they went and saw where He was staying, and spent that day with Him. It was about the tenth hour.
He saith to them, Come and see. And they went and saw where he dwelt; and they were with him that day: and it was about the tenth hour.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard John’s testimony and followed Jesus.
Now one of those who heard Juchanon and went after Jeshu, was Andreas, the brother of Shemun.
41 He first found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated as Christ).
This saw first Shemun his brother, and said to him, We have found the Meshicha;
42 Andrew brought him to Jesus, who looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which is translated as Peter).
and he brought him to Jeshu. And Jeshu saw him, and said, Thou art Shemun bar Jona; thou shalt be called Kipha.
43 The next day Jesus decided to set out for Galilee. Finding Philip, He told him, “Follow Me.”
AND the day following Jeshu willed to go forth into Galila. And he found Philipos, and said to him, Come after me.
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.
Now Philipos was from Beth-tsaida, from the city of Andreas and of Shemun.
45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, the One the prophets foretold—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
Philipos found Nathanael, and said to him, Him of whom Musha in the law, and the prophets, did write we have found, (and) that Jeshu (is) he, the son of Jauseph who is from Natsrath.
46 “Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip.
Saith to him Nathanael, From Natsrath can any good thing be? Philipos saith to him, Come and see.
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, He said of him, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit.”
And Jeshu saw Nathanael as he was coming to him, and said of him, Behold truly a son of Isroel who hath no guile in him.
48 “How do You know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, “Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.”
Nathanael saith to him, Whence knowest thou me? Jeshu saith to him, While yet Philipos had not called thee, while thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.
49 “Rabbi,” Nathanael answered, “You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”
Nathanael answered and said to him, Rabi, thou art the Son of Aloha himself, thou art the very King of Isroel.
50 Jesus said to him, “Do you believe just because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these.”
Jeshu saith to him, Upon my telling thee that I saw thee under the fig-tree, believest thou? Greater things than these thou shalt see.
51 Then He declared, “Truly, truly, I tell you, you will all see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
He saith to him, Amen, amen, I say to you, Hereafter you shall see the heavens opened, and the angels of Aloha ascending and descending unto the Son of man.
