2. John 1:1-5
In the beginning was the Word, and the
Word was with God, and the Word was
God. He was in the beginning with God.
All things were made through him, and
without him was not any thing made that
was made. In him was life, and the life was
the light of men. The light shines in the
darkness, and the darkness has not
overcome it.

3. John 1:6-9
There was a man sent from God, whose
name was John. He came as a witness, to
bear witness about the light, that all might
believe through him. He was not the light,
but came to bear witness about the light.
The true light, which gives light to
everyone, was coming into the world.

4. John 1:10-13
He was in the world, and the world was
made through him, yet the world did not
know him. He came to his own, and his
own people did not receive him. But to all
who did receive him, who believed in his
name, he gave the right to become children
of God, who were born, not of blood nor of
the will of the flesh nor of the will of man,
but of God.

5. John 1:14-15
And the Word became flesh and dwelt
among us, and we have seen his glory, glory
as of the only Son from the Father, full of
grace and truth. (John bore witness about
him, and cried out, “This was he of whom I
said, ‘He who comes after me ranks before
me, because he was before me.’”)

6. John 1:16-18
For from his fullness we have all received,
grace upon grace. For the law was given
through Moses; grace and truth came
through Jesus Christ. No one has ever seen
God; the only God, who is at the Father’s
side, he has made him known.
