John 1:9-14

9That wasG1510 the trueG228 LightG3588G5457, whichG3739 lightethG5461 everyG3956 manG444 that comethG2064 intoG1519 the worldG3588G2889.

10He wasG1510 inG1722 the worldG3588G2889, andG2532 the worldG3588G2889 was madeG1096 byG1223 himG846, andG2532 the worldG3588G2889 knewG1097 himG846 notG3756.

11He cameG2064 untoG1519 his ownG2398, andG2532 his ownG2398 receivedG3880 himG846 notG3756.

12ButG1161 as many asG3745 acceptedG2983 himG846, to themG846 gave heG1325 powerG1849 to becomeG1096 the sonsG5043 of GodG2316, even to themG3588 that believeG4100 onG1519 hisG846 nameG3588G3686:

13WhichG3739 were bornG1080, notG3756 ofG1537 bloodG129, norG3761 ofG1537 the willG2307 of the fleshG4561, norG3761 ofG1537 the willG2307 of manG435, butG235 ofG1537 GodG2316.

14AndG2532 the WordG3588G3056 was madeG1096 fleshG4561, andG2532 dweltG4637 amongG1722 usG1473, (andG2532 we beheldG2300 hisG846 gloryG3588G1391, the gloryG1391 asG5613 of the only begottenG3439 ofG3844 the FatherG3962,) fullG4134 of graceG5485 andG2532 truthG225.
