John 1:1-14

1InG1722 the beginningG746 wasG1510 theG3588 WordG3056, andG2532 theG3588 WordG3056 wasG1510 withG4314 GodG2316, andG2532 theG3588 WordG3056 wasG1510 GodG2316. 2HeG3778 wasG1510 withG4314 GodG2316 inG1722 the beginningG746. 3ThroughG1223 HimG846 all thingsG3956 were madeG1096, andG2532 withoutG5565 HimG846 nothingG3761G1520 was madeG1096 thatG3739 has been madeG1096. 4InG1722 HimG846 wasG1510 lifeG2222, andG2532 that lifeG2222 wasG1510 theG3588 lightG5457 of menG444. 5TheG3588 LightG5457 shinesG5316 inG1722 theG3588 darknessG4653, andG2532 theG3588 darknessG4653 has notG3756 overcomeG26381 itG846.

6There cameG1096 a manG444 who was sentG649 fromG3844 GodG2316. HisG846 nameG3686 was JohnG2491. 7HeG3778 cameG2064 asG1519 a witnessG3141 toG2443 testifyG3140 aboutG4012 theG3588 LightG5457, so thatG2443 throughG1223 himG846 everyoneG3956 might believeG4100. 8He himselfG1565 wasG1510 notG3756 theG3588 LightG5457, butG235 he came to testifyG3140 aboutG4012 theG3588 LightG5457.

9TheG3588 trueG228 LightG5457, whoG3739 gives light toG5461 everyoneG3956G444, wasG1510 comingG2064 intoG1519 theG3588 worldG2889. 10He wasG1510 inG1722 theG3588 worldG2889, andG2532 though theG3588 worldG2889 was madeG1096 throughG1223 HimG846, theG3588 worldG2889 did notG3756 recognizeG1097 HimG846. 11He cameG2064 toG1519 His ownG2398, andG2532 His ownG2398 did notG3756 receiveG3880 HimG846. 12ButG1161 toG846 all whoG3745 did receiveG2983 HimG846, to thoseG3588 who believedG4100 inG1519 HisG846 nameG3686, He gaveG1325 the rightG1849 to becomeG1096 childrenG5043 of GodG2316— 13children born notG3756 ofG1537 bloodG129, norG3761 ofG1537 the desireG2307G4561 or willG2307 of manG435, butG235 bornG1080 ofG1537 GodG2316.

TheG3588 WordG3056 becameG1096 fleshG4561 andG2532 made His dwellingG4637 amongG1722 usG1473.2 We have seenG2300 HisG846 gloryG1391, the gloryG1391 ofG5613 the one and onlyG3439 Son3 fromG3844 the FatherG3962, fullG4134 of graceG5485 andG2532 truthG225.
