John 1
1 In [the] beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and God was the Word.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was in [the] beginning with God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things through Him came into being, and without Him came into being not even one [thing] that has come into being.
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In Him life was, and the life was the light of men,
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the Light in the darkness shines, and the darkness it not grasped [it].
And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There came a man sent from God, [the] name to Him [was] John.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 He came as a witness that he may testify concerning the Light, that all may believe through him.
The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 Not was He the Light, but that he may witness concerning the Light.
He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 Was the Light true who enlightens every man coming into the world.
That was the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world.
10 In the world He was, and the world through Him came into being, and the world Him not knew.
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 To [His] own He came, and [His] own Him not received.
He came to his own, and his own received him not.
12 As many as however received Him, He gave to them authority children of God to be, to those believing in the name of Him,
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:
13 who not [born] of blood nor [born] of will of flesh nor [born] of will of man but of God were born.
Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word flesh became and He dwelt among us, and we beheld the glory of Him, a glory as of an only begotten from [the] Father, full of grace and truth.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelled among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, ) full of grace and truth.
15 John witnesses concerning Him and he has cried out saying; This was He (of whom I was saying; *NK(o)*) The [One] after me coming precedence over me has, because before me He was.’
John bore witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spoke, He that comes after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
16 (For *N(K)O*) from the fullness of Him we ourselves all have received then grace for grace.
And of his fullness have all we received, and grace for grace.
17 For the law through Moses was given, grace and truth through Jesus Christ came.
For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
18 God no [one] has seen ever yet; (the *ko*) only begotten (God *N(K)O*) who is being in the bosom of the Father, He has made [Him] known.
No man has seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him.
19 And this is the testimony of John when sent (to him *no*) the Jews from Jerusalem priests and Levites that they may ask him; You yourself who are?
And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you?
20 And he confessed and not denied but confessed that I myself not am the Christ.
And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.
21 And they asked him; What then? You yourself Elijah are And he says; Not I am. The prophet are you yourself? And he answered; No.
And they asked him, What then? Are you Elias? And he says, I am not. Are you that prophet? And he answered, No.
22 They said therefore to him; Who are you? That an answer we may give to those having sent us; what say you about yourself?
Then said they to him, Who are you? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What say you of yourself?
23 He was saying; I myself [am] a voice crying in the wilderness; do make straight the way of [the] Lord; even as said Isaiah the prophet.
He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaiah.
24 And (those *k*) sent were out from the Pharisees
And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.
25 And they asked him and they said to him; Why then baptize you if you yourself not are the Christ (nor *N(k)O*) Elijah (nor *N(k)O*) the prophet?
And they asked him, and said to him, Why baptize you then, if you be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?
26 Answered them John saying; I myself baptize with water; [in the] midst (now *k*) of you (he has stood *NK(o)*) whom you yourselves not know,
John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there stands one among you, whom you know not;
27 (he himself is *k*) the [One] after me coming, (who before me has been; *K*) of whom not am I myself worthy that I may untie of Him the strap of the sandal.
He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe’s lace I am not worthy to unloose.
28 These things in (Bethany *N(k)O*) took place across the Jordan where was (*no*) John baptizing.
These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 On the next day he sees (John *k*) Jesus coming to him and says; Behold the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world.
The next day John sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world.
30 He it is (concerning *N(k)O*) whom I myself said; After me comes a man who precedence over me has because before me He was.
This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.
31 And I myself And I myself not knew Him, but that He may be revealed to Israel, because of this came I myself with (*k*) water baptizing.
And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
32 And bore witness John saying that I have beheld the Spirit descending (as *N(k)O*) a dove out of heaven, and it remained upon Him.
And John bore record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it stayed on him.
33 And I myself And I myself not knew Him, but the [One] having sent me to baptize with water, He to me said; Upon whom maybe you may see the Spirit descending and abiding on Him, He is the [One] baptizing with [the] Spirit Holy.
And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said to me, On whom you shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizes with the Holy Ghost.
34 And I myself And I myself have seen and have borne witness that this is the (Son *NK(O)*) of God.
And I saw, and bore record that this is the Son of God.
35 On the next day again had stood John and of the disciples of him two.
Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;
36 And having looked at Jesus walking he says; Behold the Lamb of God!
And looking on Jesus as he walked, he says, Behold the Lamb of God!
37 And heard the two disciples of Him [Him] speaking and they followed Jesus.
And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Having turned then Jesus and having beheld them following He says to them; What seek you? And they said to Him; Rabbi which is to say (meaning *N(k)O*) Teacher — where are You staying?
Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and says to them, What seek you? They said to him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master, ) where dwell you?
39 He says to them; do come and (you will behold. *N(k)O*) They went (therefore *NO*) and saw where He abides, and with Him they stayed the day that; [The] hour (now *k*) was about [the] tenth.
He says to them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelled, and stayed with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.
40 Was Andrew the brother of Simon Peter one of the two which having heard from John and having followed Him.
One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
41 Finds he (first *N(k)O*) the brother [his] own Simon and he says to him; We have found the Messiah, which is being translated (*k*) Christ.
He first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
42 (and *k*) He led him to Jesus. Having looked at (now *k*) him Jesus said; You yourself are Simon the son (of John; *N(K)O*) You yourself will be called Cephas which means Peter.
And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, You are Simon the son of Jona: you shall be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.
43 On the next day He desired to go forth into Galilee And He finds Philip And says to him Jesus; do follow Me.

44 Was now Philip from Bethsaida, from the city of Andrew and Peter.
Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Finds Philip Nathanael and says to him; [Him] whom wrote of Moses in the Law also the prophets, we have found, Jesus (*ko*) son of Joseph of Nazareth.
Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
46 And said to him Nathanael; Out of Nazareth is able any good thing to be? Says to him (*no*) Philip; do come and do see.
And Nathanael says to him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him, Come and see.
47 Saw Jesus Nathanael coming to Him and He says concerning him; Behold truly an Israelite in whom deceit not there is.
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
48 Says to Him Nathanael; From where me know You? Answered (*k*) Jesus and said to him; Before you Philip calling being under the fig tree I saw you.
Nathanael says to him, From where know you me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before that Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.
49 Answered to him Nathanael (and says: *k*) Rabbi, You yourself are the Son of God, You yourself (*k*) King are of Israel.
Nathanael answered and says to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.
50 Answered Jesus and said to him; Because I said to you (that *no*) I saw you under the fig tree, believe you? Greater things than these You will see.
Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, believe you? you shall see greater things than these.
51 And He says to him; Amen Amen I say to all of you (from now *K*) you will behold the heaven having opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.
And he says to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of man.
