John 1:5-9

51The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not 2comprehend it.

6There 3came a man sent from God, whose name was 4John. 75He came 67as a witness, to testify about the Light, 8so that all might believe through him. 8910He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.

9There was 11the true Light 12which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
