JOHN
Chapter 1
John | LO | 1:7 | This man came as a witness, to testify concerning the light, that through him, all might believe. | |
John | LO | 1:12 | but to as many as received him, believing in his name, he granted the privilege of being children of God; | |
John | LO | 1:13 | who derive their birth not from blood, nor from the desire of the flesh, nor from the will of man, but from God. | |
John | LO | 1:14 | And the Word became incarnate, and sojourned amongst us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of favor and truth. | |
John | LO | 1:15 | (It was concerning him John testified, when he cried, This is He of whom I said, He that comes after me, is preferred to me; for he was before me.) | |
John | LO | 1:18 | No one ever saw God; it is the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, who has made him known. | |
John | LO | 1:19 | Now this is the testimony of John. When the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, to ask him, Who are you? | |
John | LO | 1:21 | And they asked him, Who, then? Are you Elijah? He said, I am not. Are you the prophet? He answered, No. | |
John | LO | 1:22 | They said, Tell, then, who you are, that we may return an answer to them who sent us. What do you say of yourself? | |
John | LO | 1:23 | He answered, I am he whose voice proclaims in the wilderness, "Make straight the way of the Lord," as said, the Prophet Isaiah. | |
John | LO | 1:25 | And they questioned him further, Why, then, do you immerse, if you be not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the prophet? | |
John | LO | 1:27 | It is he who comes after me, and was before me; whose shoe-string I am not worthy to loose. | |
John | LO | 1:29 | On the next day, John sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, that takes away the sin of the world. | |
John | LO | 1:30 | This is He, concerning whom I said, After me a man comes, who is preferred to me; for he was before me. | |
John | LO | 1:31 | As for me, I knew him not; but, that he might be made manifest to Israel, I am come immersing in water. | |
John | LO | 1:32 | John testified further, saying, I saw the spirit descending from heaven, like a dove, and remaining upon him. | |
John | LO | 1:33 | For my part, I should not have known him, had not He, who sent me to immerse in water, told me, Upon whom you shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining, the same is He who immerses in the Holy Spirit. | |
John | LO | 1:38 | And Jesus turning about, saw them following, and said to them, What do you seek? They answered, Rabbi, (which signifies Teacher,) where do you dwell? | |
John | LO | 1:39 | He replied, Come, and see. They went, and saw where he dwelt, and it being about the tenth hour, abode with him that day. | |
John | LO | 1:40 | One of the two, who, having heard John, followed Jesus, was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter. | |
John | LO | 1:41 | The first he met, was his own brother, Simon; to whom he said, We have found the Messiah, (a name equivalent to Christ.) | |
John | LO | 1:42 | And he brought him to Jesus. Jesus, looking upon him, said, You are Simon, the son of Jona; you shall be called Cephas, (which denotes the same as Peter.) | |
John | LO | 1:43 | The next day, he resolved to go to Galilee, and meeting Philip, said to him, Follow me. | |
John | LO | 1:45 | Philip meets Nathanael, and says to him, We have found the person described by Moses in the law, and by the prophets, Jesus, the son of Joseph, of Nazareth. | |
John | LO | 1:46 | Nathanael says to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip answered, Come and see. | |
John | LO | 1:47 | Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said, concerning him, Behold an Israelite, indeed, in whom is no guile. | |
John | LO | 1:48 | Nathanael said to him, Whence do you know me? Jesus answered, I saw you when you were under the fig tree, before Philip called you. | |
John | LO | 1:49 | Nathanael replying, said to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel. | |
John | LO | 1:50 | Jesus answered him, saying, Because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree, you believe! | |
