约翰福音 1
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
道成肉身
1 太初有道，道与 神同在，道就是 神。 2 这道太初与 神同在。 3 万有是借着他造的；凡被造的，没有一样不是借着他造的。 4 在他里面有生命，（有些抄本第3、4节或译：“万有是借着他造的，没有一样不是借着他造的；凡被造的，都在他里面有生命……”）这生命就是人的光。 5 光照在黑暗中，黑暗不能胜过光。
6 有一个人，名叫约翰，是 神所差来的。 7 他来是要作见证，就是为光作见证，使众人借着他可以相信。 8 他不是那光，而是要为那光作见证。 9 那光来到世界，是普照世人的真光。 10 他在世界，世界也是借着他造的，世界却不认识他。 11 他到自己的地方来，自己的人却不接受他。 12 凡接受他的，就是信他名的人，他就赐给他们权利，成为 神的儿女。 13 他们不是从血统生的，不是从肉身的意思生的，也不是从人意生的，而是从 神生的。
14 道成了肉身，住在我们中间，满有恩典和真理。我们见过他的荣光，正是从父而来的独生子的荣光。
15 约翰为他作见证，大声说：“这一位就是我所说的：‘那在我以后来的，位分比我高，因为他本来是在我以前的。’” 16 从他的丰盛里我们都领受了，而且恩上加恩。 17 律法是借着摩西颁布的，恩典和真理却是借着耶稣基督而来的。 18 从来没有人见过 神，只有在父怀里的独生子把他彰显出来。
施洗约翰的见证(A)
19 以下是约翰的见证：犹太人从耶路撒冷派祭司和利未人到约翰那里，问他：“你是谁？” 20 约翰并不否认，坦白地承认说：“我不是基督。” 21 他们又问：“那么你是谁？是以利亚吗？”他说：“我不是。”“是那位先知吗？”他回答：“不是。” 22 于是他们再问：“你是谁？好让我们回复派我们来的人。你说你自己是谁？” 23 他说：“我就是在旷野呼喊者的声音：‘修直主的路！’正如以赛亚先知所说的。” 24 这些人是法利赛人派来的。 25 他们问约翰：“你既然不是基督，不是以利亚，也不是那位先知，那么你为甚么施洗呢？” 26 约翰回答：“我是用水施洗，但有一位站在你们中间，是你们不认识的； 27 他是在我以后来的，我就是给他解鞋带也不配。” 28 这些事发生在约旦河东的伯大尼，约翰施洗的地方。
神的羊羔
29 第二天，约翰见耶稣迎面而来，就说：“看哪， 神的羊羔，是除去世人的罪孽的！ 30 这一位就是我所说的：‘有一个人，是在我以后来的，位分比我高，因为他本来是在我以前的。’ 31 我本来不认识他，但为了要把他显明给以色列人，因此我来用水施洗。” 32 约翰又作见证说：“我曾看见圣灵，好象鸽子从天上降下来，停留在他的身上。 33 我本来不认识他，但那差我来用水施洗的对我说：‘你看见圣灵降下来，停留在谁身上，谁就是用圣灵施洗的。’ 34 我看见了，就作见证说：‘这就是 神的儿子。’”
呼召第一批门徒(B)
35 过了一天，约翰和他的两个门徒又站在那里。 36 约翰看见耶稣走过的时候，就说：“看哪， 神的羊羔！” 37 那两个门徒听见他的话，就跟从了耶稣。 38 耶稣转过身来，看见他们跟着，就问：“你们要甚么？”他们说：“拉比，你在哪里住？”（“拉比”的意思就是“老师”。） 39 他说：“你们来看吧！”于是他们就去看他所住的地方。那一天他们就和耶稣住在一起；那时大约是下午四点钟。 40 听了约翰的话而跟从耶稣的那两个人，一个是西门．彼得的弟弟安得烈。 41 他先找到自己的哥哥西门，告诉他：“我们遇见弥赛亚了！”（“弥赛亚”的意思就是“基督”。） 42 安得烈就带他到耶稣那里。耶稣定睛看着他，说：“你是约翰的儿子西门，你要称为矶法。”（“矶法”翻译出来就是“彼得”。）
呼召腓力和拿但业
43 再过一天，耶稣决定往加利利去；他遇见腓力，就对他说：“来跟从我！” 44 腓力是伯赛大人，与安得烈和彼得同乡。 45 腓力找到拿但业，告诉他：“摩西在律法书上所写的，和众先知所记的那位，我们已经遇见了，他就是约瑟的儿子拿撒勒人耶稣。” 46 拿但业说：“拿撒勒还能出甚么好的吗？”腓力说：“你来看！” 47 耶稣看见拿但业向他走过来，就论到他说：“看哪，这的确是个以色列人，他心里没有诡诈。” 48 拿但业问他：“你怎么认识我呢？”耶稣回答：“腓力还没有招呼你，你在无花果树下的时候，我就看见你了。” 49 拿但业说：“拉比，你是 神的儿子，你是以色列的王！” 50 耶稣说：“因为我告诉你‘我看见你在无花果树下’，你就信了吗？你还要看见比这些更大的事。” 51 又对他说：“我实实在在告诉你们，你们要看见天开了， 神的众使者在人子的身上，上去下来。”
John 1
New King James Version
The Eternal Word(A)
1 In the beginning (B)was the Word, and the (C)Word was (D)with God, and the Word was (E)God. 2 (F)He was in the beginning with God. 3 (G)All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 (H)In Him was life, and (I)the life was the light of men. 5 And (J)the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not [a]comprehend it.
John’s Witness: The True Light
6 There was a (K)man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 This man came for a (L)witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might (M)believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that (N)Light. 9 (O)That[b] was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and (P)the world did not know Him. 11 (Q)He came to His [c]own, and His [d]own did not receive Him. 12 But (R)as many as received Him, to them He gave the [e]right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 (S)who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
The Word Becomes Flesh
14 (T)And the Word (U)became (V)flesh and dwelt among us, and (W)we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, (X)full of grace and truth.
15 (Y)John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, (Z)‘He who comes after me [f]is preferred before me, (AA)for He was before me.’ ”
16 [g]And of His (AB)fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. 17 For (AC)the law was given through Moses, but (AD)grace and (AE)truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 (AF)No one has seen God at any time. (AG)The only begotten [h]Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.
A Voice in the Wilderness(AH)
19 Now this is (AI)the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
20 (AJ)He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, “I am not the Christ.”
21 And they asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?”
He said, “I am not.”
“Are you (AK)the Prophet?”
And he answered, “No.”
22 Then they said to him, “Who are you, that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?”
23 He said: (AL)“I am
(AM)‘The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
“Make straight the way of the Lord,” ’
as the prophet Isaiah said.”
24 Now those who were sent were from the Pharisees. 25 And they asked him, saying, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”
26 John answered them, saying, (AN)“I baptize with water, (AO)but there stands One among you whom you do not know. 27 (AP)It is He who, coming after me, [i]is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose.”
28 These things were done (AQ)in [j]Bethabara beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
The Lamb of God(AR)
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! (AS)The Lamb of God (AT)who takes away the sin of the world! 30 This is He of whom I said, ‘After me comes a Man who [k]is preferred before me, for He was before me.’ 31 I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, (AU)therefore I came baptizing with water.”
32 (AV)And John bore witness, saying, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him. 33 I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, (AW)this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’ 34 And I have seen and testified that this is the (AX)Son of God.”
The First Disciples
35 Again, the next day, John stood with two of his disciples. 36 And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, (AY)“Behold the Lamb of God!”
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they (AZ)followed Jesus. 38 Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, “What do you seek?”
They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, when translated, Teacher), “where are You staying?”
39 He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where He was staying, and remained with Him that day (now it was about the tenth hour).
40 One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was (BA)Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. 41 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, “We have found the [l]Messiah” (which is translated, the Christ). 42 And he brought him to Jesus.
Now when Jesus looked at him, He said, “You are Simon the son of [m]Jonah. (BB)You shall be called Cephas” (which is translated, [n]A Stone).
Philip and Nathanael
43 The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found (BC)Philip and said to him, “Follow Me.” 44 Now (BD)Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 Philip found (BE)Nathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom (BF)Moses in the law, and also the (BG)prophets, wrote—Jesus (BH)of Nazareth, the (BI)son of Joseph.”
46 And Nathanael said to him, (BJ)“Can anything good come out of Nazareth?”
Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, “Behold, (BK)an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
48 Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?”
Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
49 Nathanael answered and said to Him, “Rabbi, (BL)You are the Son of God! You are (BM)the King of Israel!”
50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” 51 And He said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, (BN)hereafter[o] you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.”
