John 1:6-13
6There 1cameG1096 a manG444 sentG649 from GodG2316, whoseG846 nameG3686 was 2JohnG2491. 73He cameG2064 45as a witnessG3141, to testifyG3140 aboutG4012 the LightG5457, 6soG2443 that allG3956 might believeG4100 throughG1223 him. 878He was not the LightG5457, but he came to testifyG3140 aboutG4012 the LightG5457.
9There was 9the trueG228 LightG5457 10whichG3739, comingG2064 into the worldG2889, enlightensG5461 everyG3956 manG444. 10He was in the worldG2889, and 11the worldG2889 was madeG1096 throughG1223 Him, and the worldG2889 did not knowG1097 Him. 11He cameG2064 to His 12ownG2398, and thoseG3588 who were His ownG2398 did not receiveG3880 Him. 12But as manyG3745 as receivedG2983 Him, to them He gaveG1325 the rightG1849 to becomeG1096 13childrenG5043 of GodG2316, even 14to thoseG3588 who believeG4100 in His nameG3686, 1315whoG3739 were 16bornG1080, not of 17bloodG129 norG3761 of the willG2307 of the fleshG4561 norG3761 of the willG2307 of manG435, but of GodG2316.
