John 1:5-15

John 1:5-15 CSB

NIVKJVESVNLTNKJV

That light shines  in the darkness, and yet the darkness did not overcome  it.  There was a man sent from God whose name was John.  He came as a witness to testify about the light, so that all might believe through him.  He was not the light, but he came to testify  about the light. The true light  that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.  , He was in the world, and the world was created  through him, and yet the world did not recognize him. He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive  him,  he gave them the right  to be  children  of God,  to those who believe  in his name,  who were born,  not of natural descent,  or of the will  of the flesh,  or of the will of man,  but of God.  The Word  became flesh  and dwelt  among us. We observed his glory,  the glory as the one and only  Son  from the Father, full of grace and truth. (John testified concerning him and exclaimed, “This was the one of whom I said, ‘The one coming after me  ranks ahead of me,  because he existed before me.’ ”)
