John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Adau vAda AsIt sa cha vAda IshvareNa sArdhamAsIt sa vAdaH svayamIshvara eva|
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
sa AdAvIshvareNa sahAsIt|
3 All things were made through him; and without him was nothing made that hath been made.
tena sarvvaM vastu sasR^ije sarvveShu sR^iShTavastuShu kimapi vastu tenAsR^iShTaM nAsti|
4 In him is life; and the life was the light of men.
sa jIvanasyAkAraH, tachcha jIvanaM manuShyANAM jyotiH
5 And the light hath been shining in the darkness; and the darkness received it not.
tajjyotirandhakAre prachakAshe kintvandhakArastanna jagrAha|
6 There was a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
yohan nAmaka eko manuja IshvareNa preShayA nchakre|
7 He came as a witness, to bear witness of the light, that through him all might believe.
tadvArA yathA sarvve vishvasanti tadarthaM sa tajjyotiShi pramANaM dAtuM sAkShisvarUpo bhUtvAgamat,
8 He was not the light, but came to bear witness of the light.
sa svayaM tajjyoti rna kintu tajjyotiShi pramANaM dAtumAgamat|
9 The true light, which enlighteneth every man, was coming into the world.
jagatyAgatya yaH sarvvamanujebhyo dIptiM dadAti tadeva satyajyotiH|
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world knew him not.
sa yajjagadasR^ijat tanmadya eva sa AsIt kintu jagato lokAstaM nAjAnan|
11 He came to his own, and his own received him not.
nijAdhikAraM sa AgachChat kintu prajAstaM nAgR^ihlan|
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave power to become children of God, —to those who believed in his name;
tathApi ye ye tamagR^ihlan arthAt tasya nAmni vyashvasan tebhya Ishvarasya putrA bhavitum adhikAram adadAt|
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
teShAM janiH shoNitAnna shArIrikAbhilAShAnna mAnavAnAmichChAto na kintvIshvarAdabhavat|
14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; and we beheld his glory, a glory as of an only begotten of a father.
sa vAdo manuShyarUpeNAvatIryya satyatAnugrahAbhyAM paripUrNaH san sArdham asmAbhi rnyavasat tataH pituradvitIyaputrasya yogyo yo mahimA taM mahimAnaM tasyApashyAma|
15 John beareth witness of him, and crieth, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that cometh after me hath gone before me; for he was before me.
tato yohanapi prachAryya sAkShyamidaM dattavAn yo mama pashchAd AgamiShyati sa matto gurutaraH; yato matpUrvvaM sa vidyamAna AsIt; yadartham ahaM sAkShyamidam adAM sa eShaH|
16 For out of his fullness have we all received, and grace upon grace.
apara ncha tasya pUrNatAyA vayaM sarvve kramashaH kramashonugrahaM prAptAH|
17 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
mUsAdvArA vyavasthA dattA kintvanugrahaH satyatva ncha yIshukhrIShTadvArA samupAtiShThatAM|
18 No one hath ever seen God; the only begotten God, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath made him known.
kopi manuja IshvaraM kadApi nApashyat kintu pituH kroDastho. advitIyaH putrastaM prakAshayat|
19 And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, Who art thou?
tvaM kaH? iti vAkyaM preShTuM yadA yihUdIyalokA yAjakAn levilokAMshcha yirUshAlamo yohanaH samIpe preShayAmAsuH,
20 And he declared, and did not deny; and he declared, I am not the Christ.
tadA sa svIkR^itavAn nApahnUtavAn nAham abhiShikta itya NgIkR^itavAn|
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he said, I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered, No.
tadA te. apR^ichChan tarhi ko bhavAn? kiM eliyaH? sovadat na; tataste. apR^ichChan tarhi bhavAn sa bhaviShyadvAdI? sovadat nAhaM saH|
22 They said therefore to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us; what sayest thou of thyself?
tadA te. apR^ichChan tarhi bhavAn kaH? vayaM gatvA prerakAn tvayi kiM vakShyAmaH? svasmin kiM vadasi?
23 He said, I am “a voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord,” as said Isaiah the prophet.
tadA sovadat| parameshasya panthAnaM pariShkuruta sarvvataH| itIdaM prAntare vAkyaM vadataH kasyachidravaH| kathAmimAM yasmin yishayiyo bhaviShyadvAdI likhitavAn soham|
24 And they were sent from the Pharisees;
ye preShitAste phirUshilokAH|
25 and they asked him and said to him, Why then dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?
tadA te. apR^ichChan yadi nAbhiShiktosi eliyosi na sa bhaviShyadvAdyapi nAsi cha, tarhi lokAn majjayasi kutaH?
26 John answered them, saying, I baptize in water. There standeth one among you whom ye know not,
tato yohan pratyavochat, toye. ahaM majjayAmIti satyaM kintu yaM yUyaM na jAnItha tAdR^isha eko jano yuShmAkaM madhya upatiShThati|
27 he who cometh after me, the latchet of whose sandal I am not worthy to loose.

28 These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
yarddananadyAH pArasthabaithabArAyAM yasminsthAne yohanamajjayat tasmina sthAne sarvvametad aghaTata|
29 The next day he seeth Jesus coming to him, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world!
pare. ahani yohan svanikaTamAgachChantaM yishuM vilokya prAvochat jagataH pApamochakam Ishvarasya meShashAvakaM pashyata|
30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man, who hath gone before me; for he was before me.
yo mama pashchAdAgamiShyati sa matto gurutaraH, yato hetormatpUrvvaM so. avarttata yasminnahaM kathAmimAM kathitavAn sa evAyaM|
31 And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, therefore I came baptizing in water.
aparaM nAhamenaM pratyabhij nAtavAn kintu isrAyellokA enaM yathA parichinvanti tadabhiprAyeNAhaM jale majjayitumAgachCham|
32 And John bore witness, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove from heaven, and it abode upon him.
punashcha yohanaparamekaM pramANaM datvA kathitavAn vihAyasaH kapotavad avatarantamAtmAnam asyoparyyavatiShThantaM cha dR^iShTavAnaham|
33 And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize in water, the same said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, he it is that baptizeth in the Holy Spirit.
nAhamenaM pratyabhij nAtavAn iti satyaM kintu yo jale majjayituM mAM prairayat sa evemAM kathAmakathayat yasyoparyyAtmAnam avatarantam avatiShThanta ncha drakShayasi saeva pavitre Atmani majjayiShyati|
34 And I have seen and have borne witness, that this is the Son of God.

35 On the morrow John was again standing, and two of his disciples;
pare. ahani yohan dvAbhyAM shiShyAbhyAM sArddheM tiShThan
36 and looking upon Jesus as he was walking, he saith, Behold, the Lamb of God!
yishuM gachChantaM vilokya gaditavAn, Ishvarasya meShashAvakaM pashyataM|
37 The two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
imAM kathAM shrutvA dvau shiShyau yIshoH pashchAd IyatuH|
38 Jesus turning and seeing them following, saith to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi, (that is to say, when interpreted, Teacher, ) where dost thou dwell?
tato yIshuH parAvR^itya tau pashchAd AgachChantau dR^iShTvA pR^iShTavAn yuvAM kiM gaveshayathaH? tAvapR^ichChatAM he rabbi arthAt he guro bhavAn kutra tiShThati?
39 He saith to them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he dwelt; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
tataH sovAdit etya pashyataM| tato divasasya tR^itIyapraharasya gatatvAt tau taddinaM tasya sa Nge. asthAtAM|
40 One of the two who heard what John said, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
yau dvau yohano vAkyaM shrutvA yishoH pashchAd AgamatAM tayoH shimonpitarasya bhrAtA AndriyaH
41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah; (which is, when interpreted, the Christ.)
sa itvA prathamaM nijasodaraM shimonaM sAkShAtprApya kathitavAn vayaM khrIShTam arthAt abhiShiktapuruShaM sAkShAtkR^itavantaH|
42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said, Thou art Simon, the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas; (which signifieth Peter, that is, Rock.)

43 On the morrow he determined to go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip. And Jesus saith to him, Follow me.
pare. ahani yIshau gAlIlaM gantuM nishchitachetasi sati philipanAmAnaM janaM sAkShAtprApyAvochat mama pashchAd AgachCha|
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets wrote, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.

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

47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile.
apara ncha yIshuH svasya samIpaM tam AgachChantaM dR^iShTvA vyAhR^itavAn, pashyAyaM niShkapaTaH satya isrAyellokaH|
48 Nathanael saith to him, Whence dost thou know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.
tataH sovadad, bhavAn mAM kathaM pratyabhijAnAti? yIshuravAdIt philipasya AhvAnAt pUrvvaM yadA tvamuDumbarasya tarormUle. asthAstadA tvAmadarsham|
49 Nathanael answered him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.
nithanel achakathat, he guro bhavAn nitAntam Ishvarasya putrosi, bhavAn isrAyelvaMshasya rAjA|
50 Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, dost thou believe? Thou shalt see greater things than these.

51 And he saith to him, Truly, truly do I say to you, Ye will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
