John 1:10-18
New American Standard Bible
10 He was in the world, and (A)the world came into being through Him, and yet the world did not [a]know Him. 11 He came to His [b]own, and His own people did not [c]accept Him. 12 But [d]as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become (B)children of God, (C)to those who [e]believe in His name, 13 (D)who were [f]born, not of [g]blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of a man, but of God.
The Word Made Flesh
14 And (E)the Word (F)became flesh, and (G)dwelt among us; and (H)we saw His glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of (I)grace and (J)truth. 15 John *(K)testified about Him and called out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘(L)He who is coming after me has proved to be [h]my superior, (M)because He existed before me.’” 16 For of His (N)fullness [i]we have all received, and [j]grace upon grace. 17 For (O)the Law was given through Moses; (P)grace and (Q)truth [k]were realized through Jesus Christ. 18 (R)No one has seen God at any time; (S)God the only Son, who is (T)in the [l]arms of the Father, (U)He has [m]explained Him.
