4. In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness apprehended it not.
6. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8. He was not the Light, but was sent to bear witness of the Light.
9. That Word was the true Light, which lightens every man that comes into this world.
10. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11. He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become sons of God, even to them that believe on his name,
13. who are not born of blood, nor of the will of flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
