John 1:1-8 ▼

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

2 this One was in the beginning with God;

3 all things happened through Him, and without Him not even one thing happened that has happened.

4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men,

5 and the light shined in the darkness, 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.
