Chapter 1
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
(Hebrew unavailable)
2He was with God in the beginning.
(Hebrew unavailable)
3Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made.
(Hebrew unavailable)
4In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.
(Hebrew unavailable)
5The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
(Hebrew unavailable)
6There came a man who was sent from God. His name was John.
(Hebrew unavailable)
7He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe.
(Hebrew unavailable)
8He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
(Hebrew unavailable)
9The true Light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.
(Hebrew unavailable)
10He was in the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him.
(Hebrew unavailable)
11He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
(Hebrew unavailable)
12But to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God—
(Hebrew unavailable)
13children born not of blood, nor of the desire or will of man, but born of God.
(Hebrew unavailable)
14The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
(Hebrew unavailable)
15John testified concerning Him. He cried out, saying, “This is He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’”
(Hebrew unavailable)
16From His fullness we have all received grace upon grace.
(Hebrew unavailable)
17For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
(Hebrew unavailable)
18No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is Himself God and is at the Father’s side, has made Him known.
(Hebrew unavailable)
19And this was John’s testimony when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him, “Who are you?”
(Hebrew unavailable)
20He did not refuse to confess, but openly declared, “I am not the Christ.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
21“Then who are you?” they inquired. “Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
22So they said to him, “Who are you? We need an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
(Hebrew unavailable)
23John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet: “I am a voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’”
(Hebrew unavailable)
24Then the Pharisees who had been sent
(Hebrew unavailable)
25asked him, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”
(Hebrew unavailable)
26“I baptize with water,” John replied, “but among you stands One you do not know.
(Hebrew unavailable)
27He is the One who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
28All this happened at Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
(Hebrew unavailable)
29The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
(Hebrew unavailable)
30This is He of whom I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’
(Hebrew unavailable)
31I myself did not know Him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that He might be revealed to Israel.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
32Then John testified, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and resting on Him.
(Hebrew unavailable)
33I myself did not know Him, but the One who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
(Hebrew unavailable)
34I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
35The next day John was there again with two of his disciples.
(Hebrew unavailable)
36When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
(Hebrew unavailable)
37And when the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.
(Hebrew unavailable)
38Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”
(Hebrew unavailable)
39“Come and see,” He replied. So they went and saw where He was staying, and spent that day with Him. It was about the tenth hour.
(Hebrew unavailable)
40Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard John’s testimony and followed Jesus.
(Hebrew unavailable)
41He first found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated as Christ).
(Hebrew unavailable)
42Andrew brought him to Jesus, who looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which is translated as Peter).
(Hebrew unavailable)
43The next day Jesus decided to set out for Galilee. Finding Philip, He told him, “Follow Me.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.
(Hebrew unavailable)
45Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, the One the prophets foretold—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
46“Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip.
(Hebrew unavailable)
47When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, He said of him, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
48“How do You know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, “Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
49“Rabbi,” Nathanael answered, “You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”
(Hebrew unavailable)
50Jesus said to him, “Do you believe just because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
51Then He declared, “Truly, truly, I tell you, you will all see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
(Hebrew unavailable)
