John 1:5-13

5And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.1 6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11He came to his own, and his own received him not. 12But as many as received him, to them he gave power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:2 13Who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
