AKJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

15 G2491 John G3140 bore G3140 witness G2896 of him, and cried, G3004 saying, G3778 This G3739 was he of whom G2036 I spoke, G2064 He that comes G3694 after G1715 me is preferred G1715 before G4413 me: for he was before me.

16 G4138 And of his fullness G2192 have G3956 all G2983 we received, G5485 and grace G5485 for grace.

17 G3551 For the law G1325 was given G3475 by Moses, G5485 but grace G225 and truth G1096 came G2424 by Jesus G5547 Christ.

18 G3762 No G3762 man G3708 has seen G2316 God G4455 at G4455 any G4455 time, G3439 the only G3439 begotten G5207 Son, G3588 which G2859 is in the bosom G3962 of the Father, G1834 he has declared him.

19 G3778 And this G3141 is the record G2491 of John, G3753 when G2453 the Jews G649 sent G2409 priests G3019 and Levites G2414 from Jerusalem G2065 to ask G5101 him, Who G1488 are you?

20 G3670 And he confessed, G720 and denied G3670 not; but confessed, G1510 I am G5547 not the Christ.

21 G2065 And they asked G5101 him, What G3767 then? G1488 Are G2243 you Elias? G3004 And he said, G1510 I am G1488 not. Are G4396 you that prophet? G611 And he answered, G3756 No.

22 G3767 Then G2036 said G5101 they to him, Who G1488 are G1325 you? that we may give G612 an answer G3992 to them that sent G5101 us. What G3004 say G4572 you of yourself?

23 G5346 He said, G5456 I am the voice G994 of one crying G2048 in the wilderness, G2116 Make G2116 straight G3598 the way G2962 of the Lord, G2036 as said G4396 the prophet G2268 Esaias.
