John 1:9-14

9There was 1the trueG228 LightG5457 2whichG3739, comingG2064 into the worldG2889, enlightensG5461 everyG3956 manG444. 10He was in the worldG2889, and 3the worldG2889 was madeG1096 throughG1223 Him, and the worldG2889 did not knowG1097 Him. 11He cameG2064 to His 4ownG2398, and thoseG3588 who were His ownG2398 did not receiveG3880 Him. 12But as manyG3745 as receivedG2983 Him, to them He gaveG1325 the rightG1849 to becomeG1096 5childrenG5043 of GodG2316, even 6to thoseG3588 who believeG4100 in His nameG3686, 137whoG3739 were 8bornG1080, not of 9bloodG129 norG3761 of the willG2307 of the fleshG4561 norG3761 of the willG2307 of manG435, but of GodG2316.

14And 10the WordG3056 11becameG1096 fleshG4561, and 1213dweltG4637 amongG1722 us, and 14we sawG2300 His gloryG1391, gloryG1391 as of 15the onlyG3439 begottenG3439 from the FatherG3962, fullG4134 of 16graceG5485 and 17truthG225.
