John 1:14-18
Legacy Standard Bible

The Word Became Flesh

14 And (A)the Word (B)became flesh, and [a](C)dwelt among us, and (D)we beheld His glory, glory as of the [b]only begotten from the Father, full of (E)grace and (F)truth. 15 John *(G)bore witness about Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘(H)He who comes after me [c]has been ahead of me, (I)for He existed before me.’” 16 For of His (J)fullness [d]we have all received, and grace [e]upon grace. 17 For (K)the Law was given through Moses; (L)grace and (M)truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 (N)No one has seen God at any time; (O)the only begotten God who is (P)in the bosom of the Father, (Q)He has explained Him.

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.
