Juan 1
Reina Valera Contemporánea
La Palabra hecha carne
1 En el principio ya existía la Palabra.
La Palabra estaba con Dios,
y Dios mismo era la Palabra.[a]
2 La Palabra estaba en el principio con Dios.
3 Por ella fueron hechas todas las cosas.
Sin ella nada fue hecho
de lo que ha sido hecho.
4 En ella estaba la vida,
y la vida era la luz de la humanidad.
5 La luz resplandece en las tinieblas,
y las tinieblas no prevalecieron contra ella.
6 Hubo un hombre enviado de Dios, el cual se llamaba Juan.(A) 7 Éste vino por testimonio, para dar testimonio de la luz, a fin de que todos creyeran por él. 8 Él no era la luz, sino que vino para dar testimonio de la luz.
9 La Palabra, la luz verdadera,
la que alumbra a todo hombre,
venía a este mundo.
10 En el mundo estaba,
y el mundo fue hecho por ella,
pero el mundo no la conoció.
11 La Palabra vino a lo suyo,
pero los suyos no la recibieron.
12 Pero a todos los que la recibieron,
a los que creen en su nombre,
les dio la potestad de ser hechos hijos de Dios;
13 los cuales no son engendrados de sangre,
ni de voluntad de carne,
ni de voluntad de varón,
sino de Dios.
14 Y la Palabra se hizo carne,
y habitó entre nosotros, y vimos su gloria
(la gloria que corresponde al unigénito del Padre),
llena de gracia y de verdad.
15 Juan dio testimonio de ella, y clamó diciendo: «De ella es de quien yo decía: “Viene después de mí, pero es anterior a mí; porque ya existía antes que yo.”»
16 Ciertamente de su plenitud tomamos todos,
y gracia sobre gracia.
17 La ley fue dada por medio de Moisés,
pero la gracia y la verdad vinieron
por medio de Jesucristo.
18 A Dios nadie lo vio jamás;
quien lo ha dado a conocer es el Hijo unigénito,
que está en el seno del Padre.
Testimonio de Juan el Bautista(B)
19 Éste es el testimonio de Juan. Cuando los judíos enviaron desde Jerusalén sacerdotes y levitas para que le preguntaran: «Tú, ¿quién eres?», 20 Juan confesó, y no negó, sino que confesó: «Yo no soy el Cristo.» 21 Y le preguntaron: «Entonces, ¿qué? ¿Eres Elías?»(C) Dijo: «No lo soy.» «¿Entonces eres el profeta?»(D) Y él respondió: «No.» 22 Le dijeron: «¿Quién eres, entonces? Para que demos respuesta a los que nos enviaron, ¿qué dices de ti mismo?» 23 Juan dijo: «Yo soy la voz que clama en el desierto: “Enderecen el camino del Señor”, como dijo el profeta Isaías.»(E)
24 Los que habían sido enviados eran de los fariseos, 25 y le preguntaron: «Entonces, si tú no eres el Cristo, ni Elías, ni el profeta, ¿por qué bautizas?» 26 Juan les respondió: «Yo bautizo con agua; pero en medio de ustedes está uno, a quien ustedes no conocen. 27 Éste viene después de mí, del cual no soy digno de desatar la correa de su calzado.» 28 Estas cosas sucedieron en Betábara, al otro lado del Jordán, donde Juan estaba bautizando.
El Cordero de Dios
29 El siguiente día Juan vio que Jesús venía hacia él, y dijo: «Éste es el Cordero de Dios, que quita el pecado del mundo. 30 Él es de quien yo dije: “Después de mí viene un varón, el cual es antes de mí; porque era primero que yo.” 31 Yo no lo conocía; pero vine bautizando con agua para esto: para que él fuera manifestado a Israel.» 32 Juan también dio testimonio y dijo: «Vi al Espíritu descender del cielo como paloma, y permanecer sobre él. 33 Yo no lo conocía; pero el que me envió a bautizar con agua me dijo: “Aquél sobre quien veas que el Espíritu desciende, y que permanece sobre él, es el que bautiza con el Espíritu Santo.” 34 Y yo lo he visto, y he dado testimonio de que éste es el Hijo de Dios.»
Los primeros discípulos
35 Al día siguiente, Juan estaba de nuevo allí con dos de sus discípulos. 36 Al ver a Jesús, que andaba por allí, dijo: «Éste es el Cordero de Dios.» 37 Los dos discípulos lo oyeron hablar, y siguieron a Jesús. 38 Jesús se volvió y, al ver que lo seguían, les dijo: «¿Qué buscan?» Ellos le dijeron: «Rabí (que traducido significa “Maestro”), ¿dónde vives?» 39 Les dijo: «Vengan y vean.» Ellos fueron, y vieron donde vivía, y se quedaron con él aquel día, porque ya eran como las cuatro de la tarde. 40 Andrés, el hermano de Simón Pedro, era uno de los dos que habían oído a Juan y habían seguido a Jesús. 41 Éste halló primero a Simón, su hermano, y le dijo: «Hemos hallado al Mesías (que traducido significa “el Cristo”).» 42 Entonces lo llevó a Jesús, quien al verlo dijo: «Tú eres Simón, el hijo de Jonás; tú serás llamado Cefas[b] (que quiere decir, Pedro[c]).»
Jesús llama a Felipe y a Natanael
43 Al día siguiente, Jesús quiso ir a Galilea, y halló a Felipe y le dijo: «Sígueme.» 44 Felipe era de Betsaida, la ciudad de Andrés y Pedro. 45 Y Felipe halló a Natanael y le dijo: «Hemos hallado a aquél de quien escribió Moisés en la ley, y también los profetas: a Jesús, el hijo de José, de Nazaret.» 46 Natanael le dijo: «¿Y de Nazaret puede salir algo bueno?» Y le dijo Felipe: «Ven a ver.» 47 Cuando Jesús vio que Natanael se le acercaba, dijo de él: «Aquí tienen a un verdadero israelita, en quien no hay engaño.» 48 Natanael le dijo: «¿Y de dónde me conoces?» Jesús le respondió: «Te vi antes de que Felipe te llamara, cuando estabas debajo de la higuera.» 49 Natanael le dijo: «Rabí, ¡tú eres el Hijo de Dios!; ¡tú eres el Rey de Israel!» 50 Jesús le respondió: «¿Crees sólo porque te dije que te vi debajo de la higuera? ¡Pues cosas mayores que éstas verás!» 51 También le dijo: «De cierto, de cierto les digo, que de aquí en adelante verán el cielo abierto, y a los ángeles de Dios subir y bajar(F) sobre el Hijo del Hombre.»
Juan 1
Ang Pulong Sang Dios
Juan 1
Ang Pulong Sang Dios
Ang Pulong nga Ginahalinan sang Kabuhi
1 Sang una pa nga daan,[a] ara na ang ginatawag nga Pulong. Ang Pulong kaupod na sang Dios, kag ang Pulong mismo Dios. 2 Halin pa gid sang una ang Pulong kaupod na sang Dios. 3 Paagi sa iya, ginhimo ang tanan nga butang, kag wala gid sing may nahimo nga indi paagi sa iya. 4 Ang Pulong amo ang ginahalinan sang kabuhi. Kag ini nga kabuhi pareho sa suga tungod kay amo ini ang nagapasanag sa hunahuna sang mga tawo. 5 Ini nga suga nagapasanag sa kadulom[b] kag ang iya kasanag wala nadaog sang kadulom.[c]
6 Karon may tawo nga ginpadala sang Dios. Ang iya ngalan si Juan. 7 Ginpadala siya sang Dios sa pagsugid kon sin-o ang suga, agod paagi sa iya pagsugid magatuo ang tanan nga tawo. 8 Indi si Juan ang suga, kundi nag-abot siya sa pagsugid kon sin-o ang suga. 9 Si Jesu-Cristo amo ang matuod nga suga nga nag-abot diri sa kalibutan kag nagapasanag sa hunahuna sang tanan nga tawo. 10 Nag-abot siya diri sa kalibutan. Kag bisan ginhimo ang kalibutan paagi sa iya, ang mga tawo sang kalibutan[d] wala nagkilala sa iya. 11 Nagkadto siya sa iya mismo mga kasimanwa, pero ang kalabanan sa ila wala magbaton sa iya. 12 Pero ang bisan sin-o nga nagbaton kag nagtuo sa iya[e] ginhatagan niya sing kinamatarong[f] nga mangin anak sang Dios. 13 Nangin anak sila sang Dios indi paagi sa lawasnon nga pagkatawo ukon sa pagbuot sang tawo, kundi paagi sa pagbuot sang Dios.
14 Ang Pulong nagpakatawo kag nagpakig-upod diri sa aton. Nakita namon ang iya kadungganan bilang bugtong nga Anak sang Amay. Maluluy-on gid siya kag puro kamatuoran ang iya ginasugid.
15 Nagpamatuod si Juan parte sa iya. Nagsiling siya, “Siya amo ang akon ginasiling nga magaabot nga ulihi sa akon. Pero labaw pa siya sang sa akon, kay sa wala pa ako natawo, ara na siya nga daan.”
16 Tungod sa dako nga kaluoy ni Cristo ang iya mga pagpakamaayo sa aton tanan nagasinunod-sunod lang. 17 Ang Kasuguan ginhatag sang Dios sa aton paagi kay Moises, pero ang kaluoy kag ang kamatuoran nag-abot sa aton paagi kay Jesu-Cristo. 18 Wala gid sing bisan sin-o nga tawo nga nakakita sa Dios nga Amay. Pero ginpakilala siya sa aton sang bugtong nga Anak nga Dios nga kaupod permi sang Amay.[g]
Ang Mensahi ni Juan nga Manugbautiso(A)
19 Nagpamatuod si Juan parte kay Jesus sang ginpakadto sa iya sang mga lider sang mga Judio sa Jerusalem ang pila ka mga pari kag mga Levita agod pamangkuton siya kon sin-o gid siya. 20 Ginprangka sila ni Juan, “Indi ako ang Cristo nga inyo ginahulat.” 21 Nagpamangkot sila, “Kon indi ikaw ang Cristo, sin-o? Si Elias nga propeta?” Nagsabat si Juan, “Indi ako si Elias.” Gani nagsiling sila liwat, “Siguro ikaw ang ginasiling nga Propeta nga magaabot?” Pero nagsabat naman si Juan nga indi siya ang Propeta nga ila ginasiling. 22 Gani nagsiling sila, “Ti sugiri kami kon sin-o gid ikaw agod may isugid man kami sa mga nagsugo sa amon. Ano ang masiling mo parte sa imo kaugalingon?” 23 Nagsabat si Juan, “Ako ang tawo nga gintagna ni Isaias nga propeta. Indi bala nagsiling siya,
‘May magawali sing mabaskog sa kamingawan. Magasiling siya sa mga tawo,
Tadlunga ang alagyan nga pagaagyan sang Ginoo!’ ”[h]
24 Ang mga nagsugo gali sa ato nga mga tawo nga nagkadto kay Juan amo ang mga Pariseo.[i] 25 Ginpamangkot nila liwat si Juan, “Ngaa nga nagapangbautiso ka sang mga tawo kon indi ikaw ang Cristo, ukon si Elias, ukon ang Propeta nga amon ginahulat nga mag-abot?” 26 Nagsabat si Juan, “Ako nagapangbautiso sa tubig, pero may ara sa inyo subong nga wala ninyo makilala. 27 Siya ang ginasiling ko nga magaabot nga nagasunod sa akon, pero indi gani ako takos nga mangin iya suluguon.”[j]
28 Natabo ini sa Betania, sa tabok sang Suba sang Jordan, nga sa diin nagapangbautiso si Juan.
Ang Karnero sang Dios
29 Sang madason nga adlaw nakita ni Juan si Jesus nga nagapalapit sa iya. Nagsiling dayon si Juan sa mga tawo, “Ari na ang Karnero sang Dios nga inughalad agod magkuha sang sala sang mga tawo sa kalibutan. 30 Siya amo ang akon ginasiling nga magaabot nga ulihi sa akon, pero mas labaw pa siya sang sa akon, kay sa wala pa ako natawo, ara na siya nga daan. 31 Sang una bisan gani ako wala makakilala kon sin-o gid siya. Pero nagkadto ako diri nga nagapangbautiso sa tubig agod ipakilala siya sa mga taga-Israel. 32 Nagapamatuod ako nga nakita ko ang Espiritu Santo nga nagkunsad sa iya halin sa langit nga pareho sang pating kag nagpabilin sa iya. 33 Sang una bisan gani ako wala makakilala kon sin-o gid siya, pero ang Dios nga nagsugo sa akon nga magbautiso sa tubig amo ang nagsiling nga daan sa akon nga kon makita ko na gani ang Espiritu Santo nga magkunsad kag magpabilin sa isa ka tawo, ina nga tawo amo ang magabautiso sa Espiritu Santo. 34 Kag ina nakita ko gid. Gani napamatud-an ko gid nga siya amo ang Anak sang Dios.”
Ang Nahauna nga mga Sumulunod ni Jesus
35 Sang madason nga adlaw, didto naman si Juan kaupod ang duha ka tawo nga iya sumulunod. 36 Pagkakita niya kay Jesus nga nagalabay, nagsiling siya, “Ari na ang Karnero sang Dios.”[k] 37 Pagkabati sadto sang duha niya ka sumulunod, nagsunod sila dayon kay Jesus. 38 Pagbalikid ni Jesus, nakita niya sila nga nagasunod. Gani nagpamangkot siya, “Ano bala ang inyo kinahanglan?” Nagsabat sila, “Rabbi, sa diin ka bala nagaestar?” (Ang buot silingon sang Rabbi “Manunudlo.”) 39 Nagsiling siya, “Dali, upod kamo sa akon agod makita ninyo.” Gani nag-upod sila kag nakita nila ang iya ginaestaran. Mga alas kuwatro na sadto sang hapon, gani didto na lang sila nagpabilin hasta mag-aga. 40 Ang isa sa duha nga nakabati sa ginsiling ni Juan kag nagsunod kay Jesus amo si Andres nga utod ni Simon Pedro. 41 Pagkaaga, ginpangita niya dayon ang iya utod nga si Simon kag ginsugiran niya nga nakita nila ang Mesias. (Ang buot silingon sang Mesias “Cristo.”) 42 Dayon gindala niya si Simon kay Jesus. Pag-abot nila kay Jesus, gintulok ni Jesus si Simon kag nagsiling, “Ikaw si Simon nga anak ni Juan. Pero halin subong tawgon ka na nga Cefas.” (Ang Cefas pareho man sa ngalan nga Pedro nga ang buot silingon “bato”.)
Gintawag ni Jesus si Felipe kag si Natanael
43 Sang madason nga adlaw, nagdesisyon si Jesus nga magkadto sa Galilea. Pag-abot niya didto, nakita niya si Felipe kag ginsilingan, “Dali, sunod sa akon!” 44 (Si Felipe nga ini taga-Betsaida.[l] Taga-didto man si Andres kag si Pedro.) 45 Dayon ginpangita ni Felipe si Natanael. Kag sang nakita na niya, nagsiling siya sa iya, “Nakita na namon ang tawo nga ginmitlang ni Moises sa Kasuguan kag ginmitlang man sa ginsulat sang mga propeta. Siya gali amo si Jesus nga taga-Nazaret nga anak ni Jose.” 46 Nagsiling si Natanael, “May ara bala nga maayo halin sa Nazaret?” Nagsabat si Felipe, “Dali, upod bala agod makita mo.”
47 Pagkakita ni Jesus kay Natanael nga nagapalapit sa iya, nagsiling siya, “Ari ang matuod nga Israelinhon nga wala gid nagadaya.”[m] 48 Nagsiling dayon si Natanael sa iya, “Ngaa kilala mo ako?” Nagsabat si Jesus, “Sa wala ka pa gintawag ni Felipe, nakita ko na ikaw didto sa idalom sang kahoy nga higera.” 49 Gani nagsiling si Natanael, “Manunudlo,” matuod gid nga ikaw ang Anak sang Dios! Ikaw ang hari sang Israel. 50 Nagsiling dayon si Jesus sa iya, “Nagatuo ka bala sa akon tungod kay nagsiling ako sa imo nga nakita ko ikaw didto sa idalom sang kahoy nga higera? Mas sobra pa dira ang imo makita sa pila ka adlaw.” 51 Kag nagsiling pa gid si Jesus sa iya, “Sa pagkamatuod, ginasugid ko sa inyo nga magaabot ang adlaw nga makita ninyo ang langit nga nagaabri kag makita man ninyo ang mga anghel sang Dios nga nagasaka-panaog pakadto sa akon nga Anak sang Tawo.”

John 1
New International Version
The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word,(A) and the Word was with God,(B) and the Word was God.(C) 2 He was with God in the beginning.(D) 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.(E) 4 In him was life,(F) and that life was the light(G) of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness,(H) and the darkness has not overcome[a] it.(I)
6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John.(J) 7 He came as a witness to testify(K) concerning that light, so that through him all might believe.(L) 8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
9 The true light(M) that gives light to everyone(N) was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him,(O) the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.(P) 12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed(Q) in his name,(R) he gave the right to become children of God(S)— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.(T)
14 The Word became flesh(U) and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory,(V) the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace(W) and truth.(X)
15 (John testified(Y) concerning him. He cried out, saying, “This is the one I spoke about when I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’”)(Z) 16 Out of his fullness(AA) we have all received grace(AB) in place of grace already given. 17 For the law was given through Moses;(AC) grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.(AD) 18 No one has ever seen God,(AE) but the one and only Son, who is himself God and[b](AF) is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.
John the Baptist Denies Being the Messiah
19 Now this was John’s(AG) testimony when the Jewish leaders[c](AH) in Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. 20 He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Messiah.”(AI)
21 They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?”(AJ)
He said, “I am not.”
“Are you the Prophet?”(AK)
He answered, “No.”
22 Finally they said, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
23 John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, “I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness,(AL) ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’”[d](AM)
24 Now the Pharisees who had been sent 25 questioned him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”
26 “I baptize with[e] water,”(AN) John replied, “but among you stands one you do not know. 27 He is the one who comes after me,(AO) the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”(AP)
28 This all happened at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan,(AQ) where John was baptizing.
John Testifies About Jesus
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God,(AR) who takes away the sin of the world!(AS) 30 This is the one I meant when I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’(AT) 31 I myself did not know him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that he might be revealed to Israel.”
32 Then John gave this testimony: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him.(AU) 33 And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water(AV) told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’(AW) 34 I have seen and I testify that this is God’s Chosen One.”[f](AX)
John’s Disciples Follow Jesus(AY)
35 The next day John(AZ) was there again with two of his disciples. 36 When he saw Jesus passing by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”(BA)
37 When the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus. 38 Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked, “What do you want?”
They said, “Rabbi”(BB) (which means “Teacher”), “where are you staying?”
39 “Come,” he replied, “and you will see.”
So they went and saw where he was staying, and they spent that day with him. It was about four in the afternoon.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. 41 The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ).(BC) 42 And he brought him to Jesus.
Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called(BD) Cephas” (which, when translated, is Peter[g]).(BE)
Jesus Calls Philip and Nathanael
43 The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip,(BF) he said to him, “Follow me.”(BG)
44 Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida.(BH) 45 Philip found Nathanael(BI) and told him, “We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law,(BJ) and about whom the prophets also wrote(BK)—Jesus of Nazareth,(BL) the son of Joseph.”(BM)
46 “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?”(BN) Nathanael asked.
“Come and see,” said Philip.
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, “Here truly is an Israelite(BO) in whom there is no deceit.”(BP)
48 “How do you know me?” Nathanael asked.
Jesus answered, “I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.”
49 Then Nathanael declared, “Rabbi,(BQ) you are the Son of God;(BR) you are the king of Israel.”(BS)
50 Jesus said, “You believe[h] because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.” 51 He then added, “Very truly I tell you,[i] you[j] will see ‘heaven open,(BT) and the angels of God ascending and descending(BU) on’[k] the Son of Man.”(BV)

King James Version
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
18 No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.
22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?
23 He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.
24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.
25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?
26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;
27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.
31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.
35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;
36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
39 He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.
40 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.
43 The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.
50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
