Young's Literal Translation
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God .
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God ;
The
same
was in the beginning with God .
this
one
was in the beginning with God ;
All things were
made
by
him ;
and without him was
not any
thing made
that was
made
.
all things through
him did
happen,
and without him happened
not even
one
thing that hath
happened
.
In him was life ;
and the life was the light of men .
In him was life ,
and the life was the light of men ,
And the light shineth
in darkness ;
and the darkness comprehended
it
not.
and the light in the
darkness did
shine,
and the darkness did
not perceive
it
.
There was
a man sent from God ,
whose name was
John .
There came
a man --
having
been
sent from God --
whose name `is'
John ,
The
same
came for a
witness
, to
bear
witness
of
the Light, that all men
through
him
might believe .
this
one
came for testimony
, that
he
might
testify
about
the Light, that all might believe through
him;
He
was not that
Light, but was
sent
to
bear
witness
of
that Light.
that
one
was not the
Light, but --
that he
might
testify
about
the
Light.
That
was the true Light, which lighteth
every man that
cometh
into
the world .
He
was the true Light, which doth
enlighten
every man ,
coming
to
the world ;
He
was
in the world, and the world was made by
him
, and the world knew
him
not .
in the world he
was
, and the world through
him
was made, and the world did
not know
him:
He
came
unto
his own, and his own received
him
not .
to
his own things
he
came
, and his own people
did
not receive
him;
But as many as received
him ,
to them gave
he power
to become the
sons of God ,
even
to them
that
believe
on
his name :
but as many as did
receive
him to them he gave
authority
to become sons of God --
to those
believing
in
his name ,
Which
were
born,
not of blood ,
nor of the
will of the
flesh, nor of the
will of man ,
but of God.
who
--
not of blood nor of a
will of flesh, nor of a
will of man but --
of God were
begotten
.
And the Word was
made
flesh, and dwelt
among us, (
and we beheld his glory, the
glory as of the
only begotten of the
Father, )
full of grace and truth.
And the Word became
flesh, and did
tabernacle
among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an
only begotten of a
father, full of grace and truth.
John bare
witness
of
him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake
, He that
cometh
after me is preferred
before me :
for he was before me .
John doth
testify
concerning
him, and hath
cried, saying, `
This was he of whom I said
, He who
after me is coming,
hath
come
before me ,
for he was before me ;'
And of his fulness have
all
we received
, and grace for
grace .
and out
of his fulness did
we all
receive
, and grace over-against
grace ;
For the law was given by
Moses
, but
grace and truth came
by
Jesus Christ .
for the law through
Moses
was given, the
grace and the
truth through
Jesus Christ did
come;
No man
hath seen God
at
any
time,
the only begotten Son, which
is in
the bosom of the Father ,
he hath
declared
him
.
God
no one
hath ever
seen ;
the only begotten Son, who
is on
the bosom of the Father --
he did
declare
.

to
ask

art thou? '

that
sent
us .
What sayest

then
to
him, `

which
were

sent were of the Pharisees ,

Why ,
then, dost
thou
baptize,
if thou art
not the
Christ, nor Elijah
, nor
the
prophet? '
John answered them, saying, I baptize with water :

standeth
one
among
you ,
whom ye know
not ;
John answered them, saying, `
I baptize with water ,
but in
midst
of
you he
hath
stood
whom ye have
not known,
this
one
it
is
who
is
coming
after
me,
who
hath
been
before
me,
He
it
is,
who
coming
after
me
is
preferred
before
me,
whose
shoe's
latchet
I am not worthy to
unloose
.
of
whom
I am not worthy that
I
may
loose
the
cord
of
his
sandal
. '
These things were
done
in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing .

taketh
away the sin of the world .
on
the morrow
John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, `Lo,
the Lamb of God, who
is
taking
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 .
this is he concerning
whom I said, After me doth
come
a man ,
who
hath
come
before me ,
because
he was before me :
And I knew him not :
but that he should
be made
manifest
to Israel, therefore
am
I come
baptizing
with water.
and I knew him not ,
but ,
that he might
be manifested
to Israel, because
of
this
I came
with the
water baptizing
.
And John bare
record
, saying ,
I saw
the Spirit descending
from
heaven
like
a dove, and it abode
upon
him .
And John testified
, saying --
`
I have
seen
the Spirit coming
down,
as
a dove, out
of
heaven,
and it remained
on
him ;
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.
and I did
not know
him,
but he who
sent me to baptize with water, He
said to
me, On
whomsoever
thou mayst
see the Spirit coming
down
, and remaining on him, this
is he who
is
baptizing
with the Holy Spirit;
And I saw
, and bare
record
that this is the Son of God.
and I have
seen
, and have
testified,
that this is the Son of God. '
Again
the next
day
after
John stood
, and two of his disciples ;
On
the morrow,
again,
John was
standing
, and two of his disciples ,
And looking
upon
Jesus as
he
walked
, he saith, Behold
the Lamb of God !
and having
looked
on
Jesus walking
, he saith, `Lo,
the Lamb of God ;'
And the two disciples heard him speak
, and they followed Jesus.
and the two disciples heard him speaking
, and they followed Jesus.

Jesus turned, and saw
them following, and
saith unto
them, What seek ye? They said unto
him
, Rabbi, (which is to

,) where dwellest
thou?
And
Jesus having
turned, and having
beheld
them following, saith to
them, `
What seek ye? '
and
they said to
them
, `
Rabbi, (which is, being interpreted, Teacher
,) where remainest
thou? '
He saith 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
.
He saith to
them, `
Come and see ;'
they came ,
and saw where he doth
remain
, and with him they
remained
that day and
the
hour
was about the tenth.
One of the two which
heard John speak
, and followed him ,
was
Andrew,
Simon
Peter's
brother.
Andrew,
the
brother
of
Simon
Peter,
was
one of the two who

And when
Jesus
beheld
him, he
said
, Thou art Simon the son of Jona:
thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by

.
and he brought him unto
Jesus :
and having
looked
upon
him, Jesus
saith
, `
Thou art Simon ,
the son of Jonas,
thou shalt be called Cephas, '
(
which is interpreted
, A rock
. )
The day
following

would
go forth into

him, Follow
me.
On
the morrow,
he
willed
to
go forth to

findeth Philip, and saith to

following
me. '
Now
Philip was of
Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter .
And
Philip was from
Bethsaida, of
the city of Andrew and Peter ;
Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto
him, We
have
found
him ,
of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did
write
, Jesus of
Nazareth,
the son of Joseph .
Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to
him, `
Him of whom Moses wrote
in the Law, and the prophets, we
have
found
, Jesus the son of Joseph ,
who
`is'
from
Nazareth;'
And Nathanael said unto
him, Can
there
any
good
thing
come
out of Nazareth? Philip saith
unto
him, Come and see.
and Nathanael said to
him, `
Out of Nazareth is
any
good
thing
able
to
be
? '
Philip said
to
him, `
Come and see. '
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to
him, and saith of
him, Behold
an Israelite indeed
, in whom is
no
guile !
Jesus saw Nathanael coming unto
him, and he
saith concerning
him, `Lo,
truly
an Israelite, in whom guile is
not;'
Nathanael saith unto
him, Whence knowest
thou
me? Jesus answered and said unto
him, Before that
Philip
called
thee ,
when
thou wast
under the fig tree ,
I saw thee.
Nathanael saith to
him, `
Whence me dost
thou
know
? '
Jesus answered and said to
him, `
Before Philip's
calling
thee --
thou being
under the fig -
tree --
I saw thee. '
Nathanael answered and saith unto
him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God ;
thou art the King of Israel.
Nathanael answered and saith to
him, `
Rabbi, thou art the Son of God ,
thou art the king of Israel. '
Jesus answered and said unto
him, Because I said unto
thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest
thou ?
thou
shalt
see
greater things than these .
Jesus answered and said to
him, `
Because I said to
thee, I saw thee under the fig -
tree, thou dost
believe;
greater things than these thou
shalt
see;'
And he saith unto
him, Verily, verily, I say unto
you, Hereafter
ye shall see heaven open
, and the angels
of God ascending
and descending
upon the Son of man.
and he saith to
him, `
Verily, verily, I say to
you, henceforth
ye shall see the
heaven opened
, and the messengers
of God going
up
and coming
down
upon the Son of Man. '
