World English Bible
1[In principio erat Verbum, et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum.
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2Hoc erat in principio apud Deum.
2The same was in the beginning with God.
3Omnia per ipsum facta sunt: et sine ipso factum est nihil, quod factum est.
3All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
4In ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hominum:
4In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5et lux in tenebris lucet, et tenebræ eam non comprehenderunt.
5The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
6Fuit homo missus a Deo, cui nomen erat Joannes.
6There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7Hic venit in testimonium ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine, ut omnes crederent per illum.
7The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
8Non erat ille lux, sed ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine.
8He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9Erat lux vera, quæ illuminat omnem hominem venientem in hunc mundum.
9The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non cognovit.
10He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
11In propria venit, et sui eum non receperunt.
11He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
12Quotquot autem receperunt eum, dedit eis potestatem filios Dei fieri, his qui credunt in nomine ejus:
12But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:
13qui non ex sanguinibus, neque ex voluntate carnis, neque ex voluntate viri, sed ex Deo nati sunt.
13who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14Et Verbum caro factum est, et habitavit in nobis: et vidimus gloriam ejus, gloriam quasi unigeniti a Patre plenum gratiæ et veritatis.
14The Word became flesh and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the only born Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
15Joannes testimonium perhibet de ipso, et clamat dicens: Hic erat quem dixi: Qui post me venturus est, ante me factus est: quia prior me erat.
15John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”
16Et de plenitudine ejus nos omnes accepimus, et gratiam pro gratia:
16From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
17quia lex per Moysen data est, gratia et veritas per Jesum Christum facta est.
17For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
18Deum nemo vidit umquam: unigenitus Filius, qui est in sinu Patris, ipse enarravit.]
18No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
19Et hoc est testimonium Joannis, quando miserunt Judæi ab Jerosolymis sacerdotes et Levitas ad eum ut interrogarent eum: Tu quis es?
19This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
20Et confessus est, et non negavit, et confessus est: Quia non sum ego Christus.
20He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
21Et interrogaverunt eum: Quid ergo? Elias es tu? Et dixit: Non sum. Propheta es tu? Et respondit: Non.
21They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
22Dixerunt ergo ei: Quis es ut responsum demus his qui miserunt nos? quid dicis de teipso?
22They said therefore to him, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
23Ait: Ego vox clamantis in deserto: Dirigite viam Domini, sicut dixit Isaias propheta.
23He said, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”
24Et qui missi fuerant, erant ex pharisæis.
24The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
25Et interrogaverunt eum, et dixerunt ei: Quid ergo baptizas, si tu non es Christus, neque Elias, neque propheta?
25They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
26Respondit eis Joannes, dicens: Ego baptizo in aqua: medius autem vestrum stetit, quem vos nescitis.
26John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
27Ipse est qui post me venturus est, qui ante me factus est: cujus ego non sum dignus ut solvam ejus corrigiam calceamenti.
27He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
28Hæc in Bethania facta sunt trans Jordanem, ubi erat Joannes baptizans.
28These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29Altera die vidit Joannes Jesum venientem ad se, et ait: Ecce agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccatum mundi.
29The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
30Hic est de quo dixi: Post me venit vir qui ante me factus est: quia prior me erat:
30This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’
31et ego nesciebam eum, sed ut manifestetur in Israël, propterea veni ego in aqua baptizans.
31I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
32Et testimonium perhibuit Joannes, dicens: Quia vidi Spiritum descendentem quasi columbam de cælo, et mansit super eum.
32John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
33Et ego nesciebam eum: sed qui misit me baptizare in aqua, ille mihi dixit: Super quem videris Spiritum descendentem, et manentem super eum, hic est qui baptizat in Spiritu Sancto.
33I didn’t recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water said to me, ‘On whomever you will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.’
34Et ego vidi: et testimonium perhibui quia hic est Filius Dei.
34I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
35Altera die iterum stabat Joannes, et ex discipulis ejus duo.
35Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
36Et respiciens Jesum ambulantem, dicit: Ecce agnus Dei.
36and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
37Et audierunt eum duo discipuli loquentem, et secuti sunt Jesum.
37The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38Conversus autem Jesus, et videns eos sequentes se, dicit eis: Quid quæritis? Qui dixerunt ei: Rabbi (quod dicitur interpretatum Magister), ubi habitas?
38Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), “where are you staying?”
39Dicit eis: Venite et videte. Venerunt, et viderunt ubi maneret, et apud eum manserunt die illo: hora autem erat quasi decima.
39He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
40Erat autem Andreas, frater Simonis Petri, unus ex duobus qui audierant a Joanne, et secuti fuerant eum.
40One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
41Invenit hic primum fratrem suum Simonem, et dicit ei: Invenimus Messiam (quod est interpretatum Christus).
41He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
42Et adduxit eum ad Jesum. Intuitus autem eum Jesus, dixit: Tu es Simon, filius Jona; tu vocaberis Cephas, quod interpretatur Petrus.
42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).
43In crastinum voluit exire in Galilæam, et invenit Philippum. Et dicit ei Jesus: Sequere me.
43On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
44Erat autem Philippus a Bethsaida, civitate Andreæ et Petri.
44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45Invenit Philippus Nathanaël, et dicit ei: Quem scripsit Moyses in lege, et prophetæ, invenimus Jesum filium Joseph a Nazareth.
45Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
46Et dixit ei Nathanaël: A Nazareth potest aliquid boni esse? Dicit ei Philippus: Veni et vide.
46Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
47Vidit Jesus Nathanaël venientem ad se, et dicit de eo: Ecce vere Israëlita, in quo dolus non est.
47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
48Dicit ei Nathanaël: Unde me nosti? Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Priusquam te Philippus vocavit, cum esses sub ficu, vidi te.
48Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
49Respondit ei Nathanaël, et ait: Rabbi, tu es Filius Dei, tu es rex Israël.
49Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
50Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Quia dixi tibi: Vidi te sub ficu, credis; majus his videbis.
50Jesus answered him, “Because I told you, ‘I saw you underneath the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these!”
51Et dicit ei: Amen, amen dico vobis, videbitis cælum apertum, et angelos Dei ascendentes, et descendentes supra Filium hominis.
51He said to him, “Most certainly, I tell you all, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
