John 1

1 The divinity, humanity, and office of Jesus Christ. 15 The testimony of John. 39 The calling of Andrew and Peter: 43 of Philip and Nathanael.

 1:1 ¶ In 1722 the beginning 746 was 2258 z5713 the x3588 Word, 3056 and 2532 the x3588 Word 3056 was 2258 z5713 with 4314 God, 2316 and 2532 the x3588 Word 3056 was 2258 z5713 God. 2316

 1:2 The same 3778 was 2258 z5713 in 1722 the beginning 746 with 4314 God. 2316

 1:3 All things 3956 were made 1096 z5633 by 1223 him; 846 and 2532 without 5565 him 846 was y1096 z0 not 3761 any thing 1520 made 1096 z5633 that 3739 was made. 1096 z5754

 1:4 In 1722 him 846 was 2258 z5713 life; 2222 and 2532 the x3588 life 2222 was 2258 z5713 the x3588 light 5457 of men. 444

 1:5 And 2532 the x3588 light 5457 shineth 5316 z5719 in 1722 darkness; 4653 and 2532 the x3588 darkness 4653 comprehended 2638 z5627 it 846 not. 3756

 1:6 ¶ There was 1096 z5633 a man 444 sent 649 z5772 from 3844 God, 2316 whose 846 name 3686 [was] John. 2491

 1:7 The same 3778 came 2064 z5627 for 1519 a witness, 3141 to 2443 bear witness 3140 z5661 of 4012 the x3588 Light, 5457 that 2443 all 3956 [men] through 1223 him 846 might believe. 4100 z5661

 1:8 He x1565 was 2258 z5713 not 3756 that y1565 Light, 5457 but 235 [was sent] to 2443 bear witness 3140 z5661 of 4012 that Light. 5457

 1:9 [That] was 2258 z5713 the x3588 true 228 Light, 5457 which 3739 lighteth 5461 z5719 every x3956 man 444 y3956 that cometh 2064 z5740 into 1519 the x3588 world. 2889

 1:10 He was 2258 z5713 in 1722 the x3588 world, 2889 and 2532 the x3588 world 2889 was made 1096 z5633 by 1223 him, 846 and 2532 the x3588 world 2889 knew 1097 z5627 him 846 not. 3756

 1:11 He came 2064 z5627 unto 1519 his own, 2398 and 2532 his own 2398 received 3880 z5627 him 846 not. 3756

 1:12 But 1161 as many as 3745 received 2983 z5627 him, 846 to them 846 gave x1325 he y1325 z5656 power 1849 to become 1096 z5635 the sons 5043 of God, 2316 [even] to them that believe 4100 z5723 on 1519 his 846 name: 3686

 1:13 Which 3739 were born, 1080 z5681 not 3756 of 1537 blood, 129 nor 3761 of 1537 the will 2307 of the flesh, 4561 nor 3761 of 1537 the will 2307 of man, 435 but 235 of 1537 God. 2316

 1:14 And 2532 the x3588 Word 3056 was made 1096 z5633 flesh, 4561 and 2532 dwelt 4637 z5656 among 1722 us, 2254 (and 2532 we beheld 2300 z5662 his 846 glory, 1391 the glory 1391 as 5613 of the only begotten 3439 of 3844 the Father,) 3962 full 4134 of grace 5485 and 2532 truth. 225

 1:15 ¶ John 2491 bare witness 3140 z5719 of 4012 him, 846 and 2532 cried, 2896 z5754 saying, 3004 z5723 This 3778 was x2258 he y2258 z5713 of whom 3739 I spake, 2036 z5627 He that cometh 2064 z5740 after 3694 me 3450 is preferred 1096 z5754 before 1715 me: 3450 for y3754 he x3754 was 2258 z5713 before 4413 me. 3450

 1:16 And 2532 of 1537 his 846 fullness 4138 have y2983 z0 all 3956 we 2249 received, 2983 z5627 and 2532 grace 5485 for 473 grace. 5485

 1:17 For 3754 the x3588 law 3551 was given 1325 z5681 by 1223 Moses, 3475 [but] grace 5485 and 2532 truth 225 came 1096 z5633 by 1223 Jesus 2424 Christ. 5547

 1:18 No man 3762 hath seen 3708 z5758 God 2316 at any time; 4455 the x3588 only begotten 3439 Son, 5207 which y3588 is 5607 z5752 in 1519 the x3588 bosom 2859 of the x3588 Father, 3962 he 1565 hath declared 1834 z5662 [him].

 1:19 ¶ And 2532 this 3778 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 record 3141 of John, 2491 when 3753 the x3588 Jews 2453 sent 649 z5656 priests 2409 and 2532 Levites 3019 from 1537 Jerusalem 2414 to 2443 ask 2065 z5661 him, 846 Who 5101 art 1488 z5748 thou? 4771

 1:20 And 2532 he confessed, 3670 z5656 and 2532 denied 720 z5662 not; 3756 but 2532 confessed, 3670 z5656 y3754 I 1473 am 1510 z5748 not 3756 the x3588 Christ. 5547

 1:21 And 2532 they asked 2065 z5656 him, 846 What 5101 then? 3767 Art 1488 z5748 thou 4771 Elijah? 2243 And 2532 he saith, 3004 z5719 I am 1510 z5748 not. 3756 Art 1488 z5748 thou 4771 that Prophet? 4396 And 2532 he answered, 611 z5662 No. 3756

 1:22 Then 3767 said x2036 they y2036 z5627 unto him, 846 Who 5101 art x1488 thou? y1488 z5748 that 2443 we may give 1325 z5632 an answer 612 to them that sent 3992 z5660 us. 2248 What 5101 sayest x3004 thou y3004 z5719 of 4012 thyself? 4572

 1:23 He said, 5346 z5713 I 1473 [am] the voice 5456 of one crying 994 z5723 in 1722 the x3588 wilderness, 2048 Make straight 2116 z5657 the x3588 way 3598 of the Lord, 2962 as 2531 said 2036 z5627 the x3588 prophet 4396 Isaiah. 2268

 1:24 And 2532 they which y3588 were sent 649 z5772 were 2258 z5713 of 1537 the x3588 Pharisees. 5330

 1:25 And 2532 they asked 2065 z5656 him, 846 and 2532 said 2036 z5627 unto him, 846 Why 5101 baptizest x907 thou y907 z5719 then, 3767 if 1487 thou 4771 be 1488 z5748 not 3756 that Christ, 5547 nor 3777 Elijah, 2243 neither 3777 that prophet? 4396

 1:26 John 2491 answered 611 z5662 them, 846 saying, 3004 z5723 I 1473 baptize 907 z5719 with 1722 water: 5204 but 1161 there standeth x2476 one y2476 z5758 among 3319 you, 5216 whom 3739 ye 5210 know 1492 z5758 not; 3756

 1:27 He 846 it is, 2076 z5748 who y3739 coming 2064 z5740 after 3694 me 3450 is preferred 1096 z5754 before 1715 me, 3450 whose 3739 y846 shoe's 5266 latchet 2438 I 1473 am 1510 z5748 not 3756 worthy 514 to 2443 unloose. 3089 z5661 x846

 1:28 These things 5023 were done 1096 z5633 in 1722 Bethabara 962 beyond 4008 Jordan, 2446 where 3699 John 2491 was 2258 z5713 baptizing. 907 z5723

 1:29 ¶ The x3588 next day 1887 John 2491 seeth 991 z5719 Jesus 2424 coming 2064 z5740 unto 4314 him, 846 and 2532 saith, 3004 z5719 Behold 2396 the x3588 Lamb 286 of God, 2316 which y3588 taketh away 142 z5723 the x3588 sin 266 of the x3588 world. 2889

 1:30 This 3778 is x2076 he y2076 z5748 of 4012 whom 3739 I 1473 said, 2036 z5627 After 3694 me 3450 cometh 2064 z5736 a man 435 which 3739 is preferred 1096 z5754 before 1715 me: 3450 for 3754 he was 2258 z5713 before 4413 me. 3450

 1:31 And I 2504 knew 1492 z5715 him 846 not: 3756 but 235 that 2443 he should be made manifest 5319 z5686 to Israel, 2474 therefore 1223 5124 am y2064 z0 I 1473 come 2064 z5627 baptizing 907 z5723 with 1722 water. 5204

 1:32 And 2532 John 2491 bare record, 3140 z5656 saying, 3004 z5723 y3754 I saw 2300 z5766 the x3588 Spirit 4151 descending 2597 z5723 from 1537 heaven 3772 like 5616 a dove, 4058 and 2532 it abode 3306 z5656 upon 1909 him. 846

 1:33 And I 2504 knew 1492 z5715 him 846 not: 3756 but 235 he that sent 3992 z5660 me 3165 to baptize 907 z5721 with 1722 water, 5204 the same 1565 said 2036 z5627 unto me, 3427 Upon 1909 whom 3739 302 thou shalt see 1492 z5632 the x3588 Spirit 4151 descending, 2597 z5723 and 2532 remaining 3306 z5723 on 1909 him, 846 the same 3778 is 2076 z5748 he which baptizeth 907 z5723 with 1722 the Holy 40 Ghost. 4151

 1:34 And I 2504 saw, 3708 z5758 and 2532 bare record 3140 z5758 that 3754 this 3778 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 Son 5207 of God. 2316

 1:35 ¶ Again 3825 the x3588 next day after 1887 John 2491 stood, 2476 z5715 and 2532 two 1417 of 1537 his 846 disciples; 3101

 1:36 And 2532 looking upon 1689 z5660 Jesus 2424 as he walked, 4043 z5723 he saith, 3004 z5719 Behold 2396 the x3588 Lamb 286 of God! 2316

 1:37 And 2532 the x3588 two 1417 disciples 3101 heard 191 z5656 him 846 speak, 2980 z5723 and 2532 they followed 190 z5656 Jesus. 2424

 1:38 Then 1161 Jesus 2424 turned, 4762 z5651 and 2532 saw 2300 z5666 them 846 following, 190 z5723 and saith 3004 z5719 unto them, 846 What 5101 seek x2212 ye? 1161 y2212 z5719 They said 2036 z5627 unto him, 846 Rabbi, 4461 (which 3739 is to say, 3004 z5743 being interpreted, 2059 z5746 Master,) 1320 where 4226 dwellest x3306 thou? y3306 z5719

 1:39 He saith 3004 z5719 unto them, 846 Come 2064 z5737 and 2532 see. 1492 z5628 They came 2064 z5627 and 2532 saw 1492 z5627 where 4226 he dwelt, 3306 z5719 and 2532 abode 3306 z5656 with 3844 him 846 that 1565 day: 2250 for 1161 it was 2258 z5713 about 5613 the tenth 1182 hour. 5610

 1:40 One 1520 of 1537 the x3588 two 1417 which y3588 heard 191 z5660 y3844 John 2491 [speak], and 2532 followed 190 z5660 him, 846 was 2258 z5713 Andrew, 406 Simon 4613 Peter's 4074 brother. 80

 1:41 He 3778 first 4413 findeth 2147 z5719 his own 2398 brother 80 Simon, 4613 and 2532 saith 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 We have found 2147 z5758 the x3588 Messiah, 3323 which y3739 is, y2076 z5748 x3603 being interpreted, 3177 z5746 the x3588 Christ. 5547

 1:42 And 2532 he brought 71 z5627 him 846 to 4314 Jesus. 2424 And 1161 when Jesus 2424 beheld 1689 z5660 him, 846 he said, 2036 z5627 Thou 4771 art 1488 z5748 Simon 4613 the x3588 son 5207 of Jona: 2495 thou 4771 shalt be called 2564 z5701 Cephas, 2786 which 3739 is by interpretation, 2059 z5743 A stone. 4074

 1:43 ¶ The x3588 day following 1887 Jesus 2424 would 2309 z5656 go forth 1831 z5629 into 1519 Galilee, 1056 and 2532 findeth 2147 z5719 Philip, 5376 and 2532 saith 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 Follow 190 z5720 me. 3427

 1:44 Now 1161 Philip 5376 was 2258 z5713 of 575 Bethsaida, 966 the x3588 city 4172 of y1537 Andrew 406 and 2532 Peter. 4074

 1:45 Philip 5376 findeth 2147 z5719 Nathanael, 3482 and 2532 saith 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 We have found 2147 z5758 him, of whom 3739 Moses 3475 in 1722 the x3588 law, 3551 and 2532 the x3588 prophets, 4396 did write, 1125 z5656 Jesus 2424 of 575 Nazareth, 3478 the x3588 son 5207 of Joseph. 2501

 1:46 And 2532 Nathanael 3482 said 2036 z5627 unto him, 846 Can 1410 z5736 there any 5100 good thing 18 come 1511 z5750 out of 1537 Nazareth? 3478 Philip 5376 saith 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 Come 2064 z5736 and 2532 see. 1492 z5657

 1:47 Jesus 2424 saw 1492 z5627 Nathanael 3482 coming 2064 z5740 to 4314 him, 846 and 2532 saith 3004 z5719 of 4012 him, 846 Behold 2396 an Israelite 2475 indeed, 230 in 1722 whom 3739 is 2076 z5748 no 3756 guile! 1388

 1:48 Nathanael 3482 saith 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 Whence 4159 knowest x1097 thou y1097 z5719 me? 3165 Jesus 2424 answered 611 z5662 and 2532 said 2036 z5627 unto him, 846 Before y4253 that Philip 5376 called 5455 z5658 thee, 4571 when thou wast 5607 z5752 under 5259 the x3588 fig tree, 4808 I saw 1492 z5627 thee. 4571

 1:49 Nathanael 3482 answered 611 z5662 and 2532 saith 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 Rabbi, 4461 thou 4771 art 1488 z5748 the x3588 Son 5207 of God; 2316 thou 4771 art 1488 z5748 the x3588 King 935 of Israel. 2474

 1:50 Jesus 2424 answered 611 z5662 and 2532 said 2036 z5627 unto him, 846 Because 3754 I said 2036 z5627 unto thee, 4671 I saw 1492 z5627 thee 4571 under 5270 the x3588 fig tree, 4808 believest x4100 thou? y4100 z5719 thou shalt see 3700 z5695 greater things 3187 than these. 5130

 1:51 And 2532 he saith 3004 z5719 unto him, 846 Verily, 281 verily, 281 I say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 Hereafter 737 575 ye shall see 3700 z5695 heaven 3772 open, 455 z5757 and 2532 the x3588 angels 32 of God 2316 ascending 305 z5723 and 2532 descending 2597 z5723 upon 1909 the x3588 Son 5207 of man. 444
