¹⁰ He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet ^(A)the world did not know him. ¹¹ He came to ^(B)his own,^[a] and ^(C)his own people^{[b] (D)}did not receive him. ¹² But to all who did receive him, ^(E)who believed in his name, ^(F)he gave the right ^(G)to become ^(H)children of God, ¹³ who ^(I)were born, ^(J)not of blood ^(K)nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

¹⁴ And ^(L)the Word ^(M)became flesh and ^(N)dwelt among us, ^(O)and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son^[c] from the Father, full of ^(P)grace and ^(Q)truth. ¹⁵ (^(R)John bore witness about him, and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ^(S)‘He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.’”) ¹⁶ For from ^(T)his fullness we have all received, ^(U)grace upon grace.^{[d] 17} For ^(V)the law was given through Moses; ^(W)grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. ^18 (X)No one has ever seen God; ^(Y)the only God,^[e] who is at the Father's side,^{[f] (Z)}he has made him known.

By Grace Through Faith

2 ^(A)And you were ^(B)dead in the trespasses and sins ^2 (C)in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following ^(D)the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in ^(E)the sons of disobedience— ³ among whom we all once lived in ^(F)the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body^[a] and the mind, and ^(G)were by nature ^(H)children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.^{[b] 4} But^[c] God, being ^(I)rich in mercy, ^(J)because of the great love with which he loved us, ⁵ even ^(K)when we were dead in our trespasses, ^(L)made us alive together with Christ—^(M)by grace you have been saved— ⁶ and raised us up with him and ^(N)seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, ⁷ so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable ^(O)riches of his grace in ^(P)kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. ⁸ For ^(Q)by grace you have been saved ^(R)through faith. And this is ^(S)not your own doing; ^(T)it is the gift of God, ^9 (U)not a result of works, ^(V)so that no one may boast. ¹⁰ For ^(W)we are his workmanship, ^(X)created in Christ Jesus ^(Y)for good works, ^(Z)which God prepared beforehand, ^(AA)that we should walk in them.
