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

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

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

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

John bore witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spoke, He that comes after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

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

And this is the record 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? And he said, I am not. Are you that prophet? And he answered, No.

Then said they unto him, Who are you? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What say you of yourself?

And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptize you then, if you are not that Christ, nor Elijah, neither that prophet?

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

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

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

And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom you shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.

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

Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and said unto them, What seek you? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher,) where do you dwell?

He said 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.

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 unto him, We have found the Messiah, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, You are Simon the son of Jonah: you shall be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

The day following Jesus went forth into Galilee, and found Philip, and said unto him, Follow me.

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

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

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

Nathanael said unto him, Where do you know me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.

Nathanael answered and said unto him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.

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

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

And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said unto him, They have no wine.

And said unto him, Every man at the beginning does set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but you have kept the good wine until now.

This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign show you unto us, seeing that you do these things?

The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that you do, except God be with him.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

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

Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

Jesus answered and said unto him, Are you a Teacher of Israel, and know not these things?

That whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

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

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with you beyond Jordan, to whom you bear witness, behold, the same baptizes, and all men come to him.

John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

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

He that 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: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God: for God gives not the Spirit by measure unto him.

He that believes on the Son has everlasting life: and he that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abides on him.

Then said the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask drink of me, who am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

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

The woman said unto him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from where then have you that living water?

But whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

The woman said unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come here to draw.

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

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

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

The woman said unto him, I know that Messiah comes, who is called Christ: when he comes, he will tell us all things.

Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

In the meanwhile his disciples besought him, saying, Teacher, eat.

Therefore said the disciples one to another, has any man brought him anything to eat?

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

And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, who testified, He told me all that ever I did.

So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.

And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.

Then when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.

When he heard that Jesus came out of Judea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

Then said Jesus unto him, Except you see signs and wonders, you will not believe.

The official said unto him, Sir, come down lest my child die.

Jesus said unto him, Go your way; your son lives. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.

And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Your son lives.

Then inquired he of them the hour when he began to mend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in which Jesus said unto him, Your son lives: and he himself believed, and his whole house.

When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been now a long time in that condition, he said unto him, Will you be made whole?

The invalid man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steps down before me.

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

The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for you to carry your bed.

Then asked they him, What man is that who said unto you, Take up your bed, and walk?

Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, you are made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto you.

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

And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.

Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also 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 men should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son honors not the Father who has sent him.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

And has given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

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

I am come in my Father's name, and you receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive.

And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he said unto Philip, Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?

And this he said to test him: for he himself knew what he would do.

Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.

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

When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.

Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went.

And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when did you come here?

Labor not for the food which perishes, but for that food which endures unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for on him has God the Father set his seal.

Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that you believe on him whom he has sent.

They said therefore unto him, What sign do you show then, that we may see, and believe you? what do you work?

Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

For I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
