John 1:1-11 ▼

1 In the beginnynge was the worde and the worde was with God: and the worde was God.

2 The same was in the beginnynge with God.

3 All thinges were made by it and with out it was made nothinge that was made.

4 In it was lyfe and the lyfe was ye lyght of men

5 and the lyght shyneth in the darcknes but the darcknes comprehended it not.

6 There was a man sent from God whose name was Iohn.

7 The same cam as a witnes to beare witnes of the lyght that all men through him myght beleve.

8 He was not that lyght: but to beare witnes of the lyght.

9 That was a true lyght which lyghteth all men that come into the worlde.

10 He was in ye worlde and the worlde was made by him: and yet the worlde knewe him not.

11 He cam amonge his (awne) and his awne receaved him not.
