Bible (WEB) NT 04: John

Description

Book 43 John



001:001 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

001:002 The same was in the beginning with God.

001:003 All things were made through him. Without him was not anything made that has been made.

001:004 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

001:005 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome{The word translated “overcome” (katelaben) can also be translated “comprehended.” It refers to getting a grip on an enemy to defeat him.} it.

001:006 There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.

001:007 The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.

001:008 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.

001:009 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.

001:010 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.

001:011 He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.

001:012 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:

001:013 who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

001:014 The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.

001:015 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.'”

001:016 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.

001:017 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
