1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2He was in the beginning with God.
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7He came as a witness, to testify about the Light, so that all might believe through him.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9There was the true Light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him.
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name,
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15John testified about Him and cried out, saying, "This was He of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.'"
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace.
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19This is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent to him priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20And he confessed and did not deny, but confessed, "I am not the Christ."
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21They asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22Then they said to him, "Who are you, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?"
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23He said, "I am A VOICE OF ONE CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS, 'MAKE STRAIGHT THE WAY OF THE LORD,' as Isaiah the prophet said."
24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.
25[an error occurred while processing this directive]25They asked him, and said to him, "Why then are you baptizing, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"
26[an error occurred while processing this directive]26John answered them saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands One whom you do not know.
27[an error occurred while processing this directive]27"It is He who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie."
28[an error occurred while processing this directive]28These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29[an error occurred while processing this directive]29The next day he saw Jesus coming to him and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
30[an error occurred while processing this directive]30"This is He on behalf of whom I said, 'After me comes a Man who has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.'
31[an error occurred while processing this directive]31"I did not recognize Him, but so that He might be manifested to Israel, I came baptizing in water."
32[an error occurred while processing this directive]32John testified saying, "I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and He remained upon Him.
33[an error occurred while processing this directive]33"I did not recognize Him, but He who sent me to baptize in water said to me, 'He upon whom you see the Spirit descending and remaining upon Him, this is the One who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'
34[an error occurred while processing this directive]34"I myself have seen, and have testified that this is the Son of God."
35[an error occurred while processing this directive]35Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,
36[an error occurred while processing this directive]36and he looked at Jesus as He walked, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!"
37[an error occurred while processing this directive]37The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38[an error occurred while processing this directive]38And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" They said to Him, "Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?"
39[an error occurred while processing this directive]39He said to them, "Come, and you will see." So they came and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.
40[an error occurred while processing this directive]40One of the two who heard John speak and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41[an error occurred while processing this directive]41He found first his own brother Simon and said to him, "We have found the Messiah " (which translated means Christ).
42[an error occurred while processing this directive]42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon the son of John; you shall be called Cephas " (which is translated Peter).
43[an error occurred while processing this directive]43The next day He purposed to go into Galilee, and He found Philip. And Jesus said to him, "Follow Me."
44[an error occurred while processing this directive]44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45[an error occurred while processing this directive]45Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found Him of whom Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote-- Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."
46[an error occurred while processing this directive]46Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."
47[an error occurred while processing this directive]47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!"
48[an error occurred while processing this directive]48Nathanael said to Him, "How do You know me?" Jesus answered and said to him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."
49[an error occurred while processing this directive]49Nathanael answered Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God; You are the King of Israel."
50[an error occurred while processing this directive]50Jesus answered and said to him, "Because I said to you that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
51[an error occurred while processing this directive]51And He said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see the heavens opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
