¹ Originally, was, the Word, and, the Word, was, with God; and, the Word, was, God.² The same, was originally, with God.³ All things, through him, came into existence, and, without him, came into existence, not even one thing: that which hath come into existence,⁴ in him, was, life, and, the life, was, the light of men. -

⁵ And, the light, in the darkness, shineth; and, the darkness, thereof, laid not hold.⁶ There arose a man, sent from God, whose name was, John:⁷ The same, came, for a witness, That he might bear witness, concerning the light, that, all, might believe, through him.⁸ He, was not the light, - but, that he might bear witness concerning the light,⁹ It, was - The real light that enlighteneth every man - Coming into the world.¹⁰ In the world, he was, and, the world, through him, came into existence, and, the world, knew him not.¹¹ Into his own possessions, he came, and, his own people, received him not home.¹² But, as many as did receive him, he gave, unto them, authority, children of God, to become, - unto them who were believing on his name:¹³ Who - not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but - of God, were born.¹⁴ And, the Word, became, flesh, and pitched his tent among us, and we gazed upon his glory, - a glory, as an Only-begotten from his Father. Full of favour and truth.

¹⁵ (John beareth witness concerning him, and hath cried aloud, saying - the same, was he that said - He who, after me, was coming, before me, hath advanced; because, my Chief, was he.)¹⁶ Because, out of his fulness, we all, received, even favour over against favour.¹⁷ Because, the law, through Moses, was given, favour and truth, through Jesus Christ, came into existence.¹⁸ No one, hath seen, God, at any time: An Only Begotten God, The One existing within the bosom of the Father, He, hath interpreted him .

¹⁹ And, this, is the witness of John, when the Jews sent forth unto him, out of Jerusalem, priests and Levites, - that they might question him - Who art, thou?²⁰ and he confessed, and did not deny, - and he confessed - I, am not, the Christ;²¹ and they questioned him - What then? Art, thou, Elijah? and he saith - I am not; The prophet, art, thou? and he answered - No!²² So they said unto him - Who, art thou? that, an answer, we may give, unto them who sent us, - What sayest thou, concerning thyself?²³ He said - I, am a Voice, of one crying aloud; - In the desert, make ye straight, the way of the Lord: according as said Isaiah the prophet.²⁴ And they had been sent forth from among the Pharisees;²⁵ and they questioned him, and said unto him - Why, then, dost thou immerse, - if, thou, art not, the Christ, nor Elijah, nor, the Prophet?²⁶ John answered them, saying - I, immerse, in water. In the midst of you, standeth one, whom, ye, know not; - ²⁷ after me, coming: - Of whom, I, am not worthy that I should unloose the thong of the sandal.²⁸ These things, in Bethany, came to pass, beyond the Jordan, where John was, immersing.

²⁹ On the morrow, he beholdeth Jesus, coming unto him, and saith - See! the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world.³⁰ This, is he, of whom, I, said - After me, cometh a man, who, before me, hath advanced, because, my Chief, was he.³¹ And, I, knew him not, but, that he might be manifested unto Israel, therefore, came, I, in water, immersing.³² And John bare witness, saying - I have gazed upon the Spirit, descending like a dove, out of heaven, - and it abode upon him.³³ And, I, knew him not, - but, he that sent me to immerse in water, he, unto me, said - Upon whomsoever thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding upon him, the same, is he that immerseth in Holy Spirit.³⁴ I, therefore, have seen, and borne witness - That, this, is, the, Son of God.³⁵ On the morrow, again, was John standing, and, from among his disciples, two;³⁶ and, looking at Jesus walking, he saith - See! the Lamb of God!

³⁷ and the two disciples hearkened unto him speaking, and they followed Jesus.³⁸ But Jesus, turning, and looking at them following, saith unto them - What seek ye? And, they, said unto him - Rabbi! which meaneth, when translated, Teacher, Where abidest thou?³⁹ He saith unto them - Be coming, and ye shall see. They came, therefore, and saw where he abode, and, with him, they abode that day. It was about the tenth, hour.⁴⁰ One of the two that heard from John and followed him, was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter.⁴¹ The same findeth, first, his own brother Simon, and saith unto him - We have found the Messiah! which is, when translated, Anointed.⁴² He led him unto Jesus. Jesus, looking at him, said - Thou, art Simon, the son of John, - thou, shalt be called, Cephas; which is to be translated, Peter.

⁴³ On the morrow, he desired to go forth into Galilee. And Jesus findeth Philip, and saith unto him - Be following me!⁴⁴ Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.⁴⁵ Philip, findeth, Nathanael, and saith unto him - Him, of whom wrote Moses in the law, and the Prophets, have we found. - Jesus, son of Joseph, him from Nazareth!⁴⁶ And Nathanael said unto him - Out of Nazareth, can any good thing come? Philip saith unto him - Come, and see!⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming unto him, and saith concerning him - See! Truly, an Israelite, in whom is no guile.⁴⁸ Nathanael saith unto him - Whence, dost thou, know, me? Jesus answered, and said unto him - Before Philip called thee, - when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee.⁴⁹ Nathanael answered him - Rabbi! thou, art, the Son of God: Thou, art, King, of Israel.⁵⁰ Jesus answered, and said unto him - Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, believest thou? A greater thing than these, shalt thou see!⁵¹ And he saith unto him - Verily, verily, I say unto you: Ye shall see heaven - when set open, and, the messengers of God, ascending and descending unto the Son of Man.
