^4 (A)In Him was life, and ^(B)the life was the light of men. ⁵ And ^(C)the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not ^[a]comprehend it.

⁷ This man came for a ^(A)witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might ^(B)believe.

^9 (A)That^[a] was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.

¹⁹ And this is the condemnation, ^(A)that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. ²⁰ For ^(B)everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. ²¹ But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been ^(C)done in God.”
