John 1:1-11 ▼

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made through Him, and apart from Him was not even one thing made that has been made.

4 In Him was Life; and the Life was the light of men.

5 And the light shines in the darkness; and the darkness apprehended it not.

6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

7 The same came for a testimony, that he might testify concerning the Light, that all might believe through him.

8 He was not the Light; but he came, that he might testify concerning the Light.

9 He was the true Light That lighteth every man coming into the world.

10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world knew Him not.

11 He came to His own possessions , and those who were His own received Him not.
