All things existed through him, and without him not one thing existed, which existed.

That which came into being in him was Life; and the Life was the Light of Man;

He was that true Light, which illumines every man by his coming into the world.

He was in the world, the world which came into being through him, but the world had no knowledge of him.

He came to the things which were his and his people did not take him to their hearts.

which were born not of blood nor of the will of the flesh, nor yet of the will of man: but of God.

And the word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw the glory of it, as the glory of the only begotten son of the father, which word was full of grace, and verity.

John bare witness of him and cried, saying, "This was he of whom I spake, which though he came after me, went before me: for he was before me."

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

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

And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.

He it is that cometh after me, which was before me, whose shoe latchet I am not worthy to unloose."

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

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

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.

Then Jesus turned about, and seeing them following, saith to them, What are ye seeking? They said unto him, Rabbi (which signifies, when translated, Master), where is thy abode?

What do you seek? They said to him: Rabbi, (which, when translated, is called Teacher,) where abidest thou?

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

He first finds his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being translated, the Christ).

And he brought him to Jesus. Then Jesus looking on him, said, Thou art Simon the son of Jonas: thou shalt be called Cephas, which, interpreted [in Greek], is Petros, a Rock.

and he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking on him, said: You are Simon, the son of Jonah; you shall be called Cephas (which, when translated, is Rock).

upon which his mother bid the servants do whatever he should order.

now fill out, said he, and carry it to the steward of the feast, which accordingly they did.

After tasting the water which had now become wine, the master of the feast (having no idea where it came from, though it was clear to the servants who took the water out) sent for the newly-married man,

and saith to him, Every man at first produces the good wine; and after men have drunk plentifully, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept back the good wine until now.

thus was the first miracle of Jesus wrought at Cana in Galilee, by which he displayed his power; and his disciples believed on him.

upon which he made a whip of small cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with their sheep, and oxen; and threw about the changers money, and over-set the tables; and said to the dove-sellers,

which put his disciples in mind of that passage, "my zeal for thine house does prey upon me."

But his words were about that holy building which was his body.

When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had spoken thus unto them; and they believed the scriptures, and the word which Jesus had spoken.

Now while he was at Jerusalem at the passover, during the feast, many believed on his name, when they beheld the miracles which he did.

this man came to Jesus in the night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles which thou dost, unless God be with him.

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that which we know, and bear witness of that which we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

And this is the test by which men are judged: the light has come into the world and men have more love for the dark than for the light, because their acts are evil.

John replied, “A man can receive nothing [he can claim nothing at all] unless it has been granted to him from heaven [for there is no other source than the sovereign will of God].

He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

Then he cometh to a city of Samaria, called Sichar, near the spot of ground which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

The woman said to him: Sir, you have ho vessel with which you can draw, and the well is deep; whence have you that living water?

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

but whosoever shall drink of the water which I shall give him, he shall no more thirst to eternity; but the water which I will give him, shall be in him a fountain of water springing up to life eternal.

Our forefathers worshiped on this mountain [i.e., Mt. Gerizim, which was visible from where they were sitting]; but you say that Jerusalem is the place where people should worship [God]."

Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

but the time is coming, nay, is very nigh, when the true worshippers shall worship the father in spirit and in truth: for they are the worshippers which he requires.

The woman said to him, "Well, I know messiah (which means Christ) is coming. When he arrives, he will explain it all to us."

Come and see a man who has told me all things which I have done; is this the Christ?

But He said to them, "I have food to eat of which you do not know."

upon which the disciples said one to another, hath any man brought him any thing to eat?

I have sent you to reap a harvest which you have not labored to make. Other men have labored, but you have reaped the results of their labors."

And many of the Samaritans in that city believed on him, on account of the word of the woman, testifying, He told me all things which I have done.

When therefore he was come into Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all the things which he did at the feast: for they also had gone to the feast.

Jesus said to him, Go; your son lives. The man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went.

Then he inquired of them the hour in which he became better. Then they said to him, The fever left him yesterday, at the seventh hour.

Then the father knew that it was in that hour in which Jesus said to him, Your son lives; and he believed, and all his house.

This is again a second miracle which Jesus did, when he came from Judea into Galilee.

Later on there was a Jewish feast (festival), and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Now there is in Jerusalem by the sheep gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches.

in which lay a great multitude of sick folk: of blind, halt, and withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

for an angel of the Lord went down into the pool at appointed seasons and stirred up the water; the first one to go in after the water was stirred was healed of his disease.]

And a certain man was there, which had been diseased thirty eight years.

He being sick answered him, Lord, I have no man, that, when the water was troubled, he might cast me into the pool: and in which I am coming, another steps down before me.

Then asked they him, "What man is that which said unto thee, 'Take up thy bed and walk?'"

The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus which had made him whole.

upon which occasion the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he did such things on the sabbath-day.

upon which Jesus said to them, verily, verily I say unto you, the son can do nothing of himself, except he sees the father do it: for whatever he doth, that the son does likewise.

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

Indeed the Father passes judgment on no one; he has committed the judgment which determines life or death entirely to the Son,

because that all men should honour the son, even as they honour the father. He that honoureth not the son, the same honoureth not the father which hath sent him.

Wonder not at this; for the hour comes in which all that are in the tombs shall hear his voice

I can of mine own self do nothing at all. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I seek not mine own will: But the will of the father which hath sent me.

There is another who testifies of me, and I know that the testimony which he testifies of me is true.

But the witness which I receive is not from man: howbeit I say these things, that ye may be saved.

That one was the lamp [which was] burning and shining, and you wanted to rejoice for an hour in his light.

But I have greater testimony than John's; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these works which I do, testify of me that the Father has sent me;

And the father himself, which hath sent me, beareth witness of me. Ye have not heard his voice at any time; Nor yet have seen his shape.

Search the scriptures; for ye suppose in them ye have eternal life: and these are they which testify of me.

How can ye believe, who receiving honour one from another, seek not the honour which cometh from God alone?

After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.

And a great multitude followed him, because they saw the miracles which he performed on the sick.

for it was just before the passover, which is a feast of the Jews.

"There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two fishes: but what is that among so many?"

And when they had made a hearty meal, he saith to his disciples, Gather up the broken bits which are left, that not a morsel be wasted.

Then they collected, and filled twelve traveling-baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which remained over to those who had eaten.

When therefore the men saw the miracle which Jesus had done, they said, This is of a certainty that prophet which is to come into the world.

The sea was getting rough because of a strong wind which was blowing.

Then they willingly took him into the ship, and immediately the ship was at the land to which they were going.

The next day the multitude who stayed on the other side of the sea, when they saw that there was no little vessel there, except the one into which his disciples went, and that Jesus went not with his disciples in the vessel, but that his disciples went away alone;

"In truth I tell you," answered Jesus, "it is not on account of the signs which you saw that you are looking for me, but because you had the bread to eat and were satisfied.

Work not for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give you; for him has God the Father sealed.

Jesus answered them, the work which God requires is to believe on him whom he hath sent.

"What sign, then," they asked, "are you giving, which we may see, and so believe you? What is the work that you are doing?

For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

Every thing which the Father gives to me shall come to me, and him that comes to me I will by no means cast out;

For I came down from heaven: not to do mine own will, but his will which hath sent me.

Now this is the will of the Father who sent me, That every thing which he hath given me I should not be deprived of it, but raise it up at the last day.

And this is the will of him that sent me: That every man which seeth the son, and believeth on him, have everlasting life. And I will raise him up at the last day."

The Jews therefore murmured concerning him, because he said, I am the bread which came down out of heaven.

No man can come to me except the father, which hath sent me, draw him. And I will raise him up at the last day.
