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.

John 1:14-18
International Standard Version
The Word Becomes Human
14 The Word became flesh and lived[a] among us. We gazed on his glory, the kind of glory that belongs to the Father’s uniquely existing Son,[b] who is full of grace and truth. 15 John told the truth about him when he cried out, “This is the person about whom I said, ‘The one who comes after me ranks higher than me, because he existed before me.’” 16 We have all received one gracious gift after another from his abundance,[c] 17 because while the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus the Messiah.[d] 18 No one has ever seen God. The uniquely existing God,[e] who is close to the Father’s side, has revealed him.
