4
In him was life, and the life was the light of men,
5
and the light in the darkness did shine, and the darkness did not perceive it.
6
There came a man -- having been sent from God -- whose name [is] John,
7
this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;
8
that one was not the Light, but -- that he might testify about the Light.
9
He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world;
10
in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him:
11
to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him;
12
but as many as did receive him to them he gave authority to become sons of God -- to those believing in his name,
13
who -- not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but -- of God were begotten.
14
And 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.
