All things were made through him, and without him nothing was made that was made.

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

He came for a witness, to bear witness of the light, that all might believe through him.

He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world did not know him.

He came to his own, and his own did not receive him.

But to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God

John bore witness of him and cried out, saying, "This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after me ranks before me, for he was before me.'"

No one has ever seen God; God the only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made him known.

Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"

And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" He said, "I am not." "Are you the prophet?" And he answered, "No."

Then they said to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"

They asked him, "Then why do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?"

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

I myself did not know him; but for this I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel."

And John bore witness, "I saw the Spirit descend as a dove from heaven, and it remained on him.

I did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, 'He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'

The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.

Jesus turned, and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which means Teacher), "where are you staying?"

He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where he was staying; and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

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

He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which means the Christ).

He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon son of John. You shall be called Cephas" (which means Peter).

The next day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee. And he found Philip and said to him, "Follow me."

Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

And Nathanael said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."

Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!"

Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"

Jesus answered him, "Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these."

And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."

When the wine was gone, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine."

And he said to him, "Every man sets out the good wine first; and when the guests have drunk freely, then the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now."

This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

Then the Jews said to him, "What sign do you show to us, since you do this?"

This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him."

Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."

Nicodemus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?"

Nicodemus said to him, "How can this be?"

Jesus answered him, "Are you the teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?

that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved.

He who believes in him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified behold, he is baptizing, and all are going to him."

John answered, "A man can receive only what is given to him from heaven.

You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, 'I am not the Christ,' but I have been sent before him.

He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now full.

He who believes in the Son has eternal life; he who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."

Then the woman of Samaria said to him, "How is it that you, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, 'Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."

The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water?

but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. The water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."

The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw."

The woman said to him, "Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him.

God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."

The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah is coming" (who is called Christ). "When he comes, he will tell us all things."

They went out of the city and came to him.

Meanwhile his disciples urged him, saying, "Rabbi, eat."

So the disciples said to one another, "Has any one brought him food?"

Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to finish his work.

Many of the Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me all that I ever did."

So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them; and he stayed there two days.

So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they too had gone to the feast.

When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and begged him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe."

The official said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."

Jesus said to him, "Go; your son will live." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went his way.

As he was going down, his servants met him and told him that his son was living.

So he inquired of them the hour when his son got better, and they said to him, "Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him."

So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live." And he himself believed, and all his household.

When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been in this condition for a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to be made well?"

The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me."

Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your bed, and walk."

They asked him, "Who is the man who said to you, 'Take up your bed, and walk'?"

Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you are well. Sin no more, so that nothing worse may happen to you."

The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does; and he will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

and has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.

"I can do nothing of myself; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.

And you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe him whom he has sent.

I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he performed on those who were diseased.

Then Jesus lifted up his eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward him, he said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread, that these people may eat?"

But this he said to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.

Philip answered him, "Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each one of them to have a little."

One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,

Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself.

Then they were glad to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"

Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you; for on him has God the Father set his seal."

Then they said to him, "What must we do, to be doing the works of God?"

Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent."

So they said to him, "What sign will you perform then, that we may see it and believe you? What work will you do?

Then they said to him, "Lord, give us this bread always."

For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.
