John 1:6-13
6A manG444 1cameG1096, one sentG649 from GodG2316, and his nameG3686 was 2JohnG2491. 73He cameG2064 45as a witnessG3141, to testifyG3140 aboutG4012 the LightG5457, 6soG2443 thatG2443 allG3956 might believeG4100 throughG1223 him. 878He was not the LightG5457, but he came to testifyG3140 aboutG4012 the LightG5457.
99This was 10the trueG228 LightG5457 11thatG3739, comingG2064 into the worldG2889, enlightensG5461 everyG3956 personG444. 10He was in the worldG2889, and 12the worldG2889 cameG1096 intoG1096 beingG1096 throughG1223 Him, and yet the worldG2889 did not 13knowG1097 Him. 11He cameG2064 to His 14ownG2398, and His ownG3588 peopleG3588 did not 15acceptG3880 Him. 12But 16asG3745 manyG3745 asG3745 receivedG2983 Him, to them He gaveG1325 the rightG1849 to becomeG1096 17childrenG5043 of GodG2316, 18to thoseG3588 who 19believeG4100 in His nameG3686, 1320whoG3739 were 21bornG1080, not of 22bloodG129, norG3761 of the willG2307 of the fleshG4561, norG3761 of the willG2307 of a manG435, but of GodG2316.
