John 1:14-18
English Standard Version

14 And (A)the Word (B)became flesh and (C)dwelt among us, (D)and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son[a] from the Father, full of (E)grace and (F)truth. 15 ((G)John bore witness about him, and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, (H)‘He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.’”) 16 For from (I)his fullness we have all received, (J)grace upon grace.[b] 17 For (K)the law was given through Moses; (L)grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 (M)No one has ever seen God; (N)the only God,[c] who is at the Father's side,[d] (O)he has made him known.

John 1:14-18
New Living Translation

14 So the Word became human[a] and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness.[b] And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.

15 John testified about him when he shouted to the crowds, “This is the one I was talking about when I said, ‘Someone is coming after me who is far greater than I am, for he existed long before me.’”

16 From his abundance we have all received one gracious blessing after another.[c] 17 For the law was given through Moses, but God’s unfailing love and faithfulness came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God,[d] is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.
