Riverside(i)
1 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 came into being through him, and apart from him not one thing came into being that has come into being.
4 In him was Life, and the Life was the Light of men.
5 And the Light shone in the darkness, but the darkness did not understand it.
6 There came a man, sent from God. His name was John.
7 He came for testimony, to testify about the Light, that all might believe through him.
8 He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
9 The true Light, which enlightens every man, was coming into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world had come into being through him, yet the world did not know him.
11 He came to his own things, but his own men did not receive him.
12 All who received him — to them he gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name,
13 who were born not of blood nor of the will of flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 The Word became flesh and tented among us, and we looked upon his glory, glory as of an only son from a father, full of grace and truth.
15 John bore witness to him and cried, "This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has become before me, for he was before me.' "
16 For of his fullness we all have received, and grace for grace.
17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 No one has ever seen God; God the only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has interpreted him.
