John 1:1 - 14 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God; 2this one was in the beginning with God; 3all things through him did happen, and without him happened not even one thing that hath happened. 4In him was life, and the life was the light of men, 5and the light in the darkness did shine, and the darkness did not perceive it. 6There came a man—having been sent from God—whose name is John, 7this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him; 8that one was not the Light, but—that he might testify about the Light. 9He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world; 10in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him: 11to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him; 12but as many as did receive him to them he gave authority to become sons of God—to those believing in his name, 13who—not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but—of God were begotten. 14And the Word became flesh, and did tabernacle among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an only begotten of a father, full of grace and truth.
