John Chapter 1

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

<>the Word was God

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

<>vv. 3,9, <>v. 3

4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

<>v. 4, <>In him was life

5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

<>the darkness comprehended it not

6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

<>sent from God

7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

<>to bear witness of the Light, <>the Light, that all men through him might believe

8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

<>vv. 3,9, <>That was the true Light

10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

<>the world knew him not

11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

<>power to become the sons of God, <>to become the sons of God, <>the sons of God, <>them that believe on his name, <>them that believe

13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

<>were born, <>born … of God

14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

<>the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, <>the Word was made flesh, <>full of grace and truth, <>full of … truth, <>grace

15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

<>he was before me

16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

<>v. 16, <>of his fulness have all we received, <>his fulness, <>grace for grace

17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

<>Moses, <>grace and truth came by Jesus Christ

18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

<>No man hath seen God at any time, <>bosom

19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?

<>this is the record, <>priests

20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.

<>he confessed, <>denied not

21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.

<>Art thou Elias? … he answered, No, <>Elias, <>that prophet, <>answered

22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

<>that we may give an answer

23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.

<>v. 23, <>Make straight the way of the Lord, <>the way of the Lord

24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.

<>the Pharisees

25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?

<>Why baptizest thou

26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;

<>there standeth one among you, whom ye know not

27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

<>worthy

28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

<>seeth Jesus, <>Jesus coming, <>Behold the Lamb of God, <>the Lamb of God, <>the Lamb of God … taketh away the sin of the world, <>Lamb

30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.

<>I knew him not, <>that he should be made manifest to Israel, <>that he should be made manifest, <>Israel

32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

<>dove

33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;

36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

<>followed Jesus

38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?

<>vv. 38-39, <>What seek ye?, <>where dwellest thou?

39 He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.

<>vv. 38-39, <>Come and see, <>abode with him

40 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

<>Simon

41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

<>He first findeth his own brother

42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

<>son, <>which is by interpretation, <>stone

43 The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.

<>Jesus … saith … Follow me.

44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

<>the city

45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

<>him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, <>Joseph

46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

<>in whom is no guile, <>guile

48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

<>Whence knowest thou me?, <>Jesus … said … I saw thee., <>tree

49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

<>him … you … ye, <>Verily, verily, <>the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man
