John Chapter 11 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.2 He was in the beginning with God.3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.7 He came as a witness, to bear witness about the light, that all might believe through him.8 He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light.9 The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him.11 He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him.12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God,13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.14 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.15 (John bore witness about him, and cried out, āThis was he of whom I said, āHe who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.ā ā)16 And from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.18 No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Fatherās side, he has made him known.19 And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, āWho are you?ā20 He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, āI am not the Christ.ā21 And they asked him, āWhat then? Are you Elijah?ā He said, āI am not.ā āAre you the Prophet?ā And he answered, āNo.ā22 So they said to him, āWho are you? We need to give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?ā23 He said, āI am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, āMake straight the way of the Lord,āas the prophet Isaiah said.ā24 (Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)25 They asked him, āThen why are you baptizing, if you are neither the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?ā26 John answered them, āI baptize with water, but among you stands one you do not know,27 even he who comes after me, the strap of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie.ā28 These things took place in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.29 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, āBehold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!30 This is he of whom I said, āAfter me comes a man who ranks before me, because he was before me.ā31 I myself did not know him, but for this purpose I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel.ā32 And John bore witness: āI saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him.33 I myself did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, āHe on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.ā34 And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son of God.ā35 The next day again John was standing with two of his disciples,36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked by and said, āBehold, the Lamb of God!ā37 The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.38 Jesus turned and saw them following and said to them, āWhat are you seeking?ā And they said to him, āRabbiā (which means Teacher), āwhere are you staying?ā39 He said to them, āCome and you will see.ā So they came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.40 One of the two who heard John speak and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peterās brother.41 He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, āWe have found the Messiahā (which means Christ).42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, āSo you are Simon the son of John? You shall be called Cephasā (which means Peter).43 The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, āFollow me.ā44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.45 Philip found Nathanael and said to him, āWe have found him of whom Moses in the Law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.ā46 Nathanael said to him, āCan anything good come out of Nazareth?ā Philip said to him, āCome and see.ā47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him, āBehold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no deceit!ā48 Nathanael said to him, āHow do you know me?ā Jesus answered him, āBefore Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.ā49 Nathanael answered him, āRabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!ā50 Jesus answered him, āBecause I said to you, āI saw you under the fig tree,ādo you believe? You will see greater things than these.ā51 And he said to him, āTruly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.ā |
