JOHN

THE

HOLY GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST,

ACCORDING TO S.  JOHN.

JOHN 1

CHAPTER I.

The divinity and incarnation of Christ.  John bears witness of him.  He begins to call his disciples.

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

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made.

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

5 And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

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

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

8 He was not the light, but was to bear witness of the light.

9 *That was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world.

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

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

12 But as many as received him, he gave to them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in his name.

13 Who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of flesh, nor of will of man, but of God.

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

15 John beareth witness of him: and crieth out, saying: This was he of whom I spoke, He that shall come after me, is preferred before me, because he was before me.

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

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

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