John 1

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

εν αρχη ην ο λογος, και ο λογος ην προς τον θεον, και θεος ην ο λογος.

2He was in the beginning with God.

ουτος ην εν αρχη προς τον θεον.

3All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

παντα δι αυτου εγενετο, και χωρις αυτου εγενετο ουδε εν ο γεγονεν.

4In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

εν αυτω ζωη ην, και η ζωη ην το φως των ανθρωπων.

5And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

και το φως εν τη σκοτια φαινει, και η σκοτια αυτο ου κατελαβεν.

6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

εγενετο ανθρωπος απεσταλμενος παρα θεου, ονομα αυτω ιωαννης·

7This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe.

ουτος ηλθεν εις μαρτυριαν, ινα μαρτυρηση περι του φωτος, ινα παντες πιστευσωσιν δι αυτου.

8He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

ουκ ην εκεινος το φως, αλλ ινα μαρτυρηση περι του φωτος.

9That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.

ην το φως το αληθινον, ο φωτιζει παντα ανθρωπον ερχομενον εις τον κοσμον.

10He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.

εν τω κοσμω ην, και ο κοσμος δι αυτου εγενετο, και ο κοσμος αυτον ουκ εγνω.

11He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.

εις τα ιδια ηλθεν, και οι ιδιοι αυτον ου παρελαβον.

12But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

οσοι δε ελαβον αυτον, εδωκεν αυτοις εξουσιαν τεκνα θεου γενεσθαι, τοις πιστευουσιν εις το ονομα αυτου,

13who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

οι ουκ εξ αιματων, ουδε εκ θεληματος σαρκος, ουδε εκ θεληματος ανδρος, αλλ εκ θεου εγεννηθησαν.

14And the Word became 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.

και ο λογος σαρξ εγενετο και εσκηνωσεν εν ημιν, και εθεασαμεθα την δοξαν αυτου, δοξαν ως μονογενους παρα πατρος, πληρης χαριτος και αληθειας.

15John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, 'This was He of whom I said, 'He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.' '

ιωαννης μαρτυρει περι αυτου και κεκραγεν λεγων· ουτος ην ον ειπον, ο οπισω μου ερχομενος εμπροσθεν μου γεγονεν, οτι πρωτος μου ην.

16And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.

και εκ του πληρωματος αυτου ημεις παντες ελαβομεν, και χαριν αντι χαριτος·

17For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

οτι ο νομος δια μωυσεως εδοθη, η χαρις και η αληθεια δια ιησου χριστου εγενετο.

18No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

θεον ουδεις εωρακεν πωποτε· ο μονογενης υιος ο ων εις τον κολπον του πατρος, εκεινος εξηγησατο.

19Who Is John the Baptist? Now this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, 'Who are you?'

και αυτη εστιν η μαρτυρια του ιωαννου, οτε απεστειλαν οι ιουδαιοι εξ ιεροσολυμων ιερεις και λευιτας ινα ερωτησωσιν αυτον· συ τις ει;

20He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, 'I am not the Christ.'

και ωμολογησεν, και ουκ ηρνησατο· και ωμολογησεν οτι ουκ ειμι εγω ο χριστος.

21And they asked him, 'What then? Are you Elijah?'

και ηρωτησαν αυτον· τι ουν; ηλιας ει συ; και λεγει· ουκ ειμι. ο προφητης ει συ; και απεκριθη, ου.

22Then they said to him, 'Who are you, that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?'

ειπον ουν αυτω· τις ει; ινα αποκρισιν δωμεν τοις πεμψασιν ημας· τι λεγεις περι σεαυτου;

23He said: 'I am 'The voice of one crying in the wilderness: 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' ' as the prophet Isaiah said.'

εφη· εγω φωνη βοωντος εν τη ερημω, ευθυνατε την οδον κυριου, καθως ειπεν ησαιας ο προφητης.

24Now those who were sent were from the Pharisees.

και οι απεσταλμενοι ησαν εκ των φαρισαιων·

25And they asked him, saying, 'Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?'

και ηρωτησαν αυτον και ειπον αυτω· τι ουν βαπτιζεις, ει συ ουκ ει ο χριστος ουτε ηλιας ουτε ο προφητης;

26John answered them, saying, 'I baptize with water, but there stands One among you whom you do not know.

απεκριθη αυτοις ο ιωαννης λεγων· εγω βαπτιζω εν υδατι· μεσος δε υμων εστηκεν ον υμεις ουκ οιδατε.

27It is He who, coming after me, is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose.'

αυτος εστιν ο οπισω μου ερχομενος, ος εμπροσθεν μου γεγονεν, ου εγω ουκ ειμι αξιος ινα λυσω αυτου τον ιμαντα του υποδηματος.

28These things were done in Bethabara beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

ταυτα εν βηθανια εγενετο περαν του ιορδανου, οπου ην ιωαννης βαπτιζων.

29The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, 'Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

τη επαυριον βλεπει [ο ιωαννης] τον ιησουν ερχομενον προς αυτον και λεγει· ιδε ο αμνος του θεου ο αιρων την αμαρτιαν του κοσμου.

30This is He of whom I said, 'After me comes a Man who is preferred before me, for He was before me.'

ουτος εστιν περι ου εγω ειπον· οπισω μου ερχεται ανηρ ος εμπροσθεν μου γεγονεν, οτι πρωτος μου ην.

31I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water.'

καγω ουκ ηδειν αυτον, αλλ ινα φανερωθη τω ισραηλ, δια τουτο ηλθον εγω εν τω υδατι βαπτιζων.

32And John bore witness, saying, 'I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him.

και εμαρτυρησεν ιωαννης λεγων οτι τεθεαμαι το πνευμα καταβαινον ως περιστεραν εξ ουρανου, και εμεινεν επ αυτον.

33I 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, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'

καγω ουκ ηδειν αυτον, αλλ ο πεμψας με βαπτιζειν εν υδατι, εκεινος μοι ειπεν· εφ ον αν ιδης το πνευμα καταβαινον και μενον επ αυτον, ουτος εστιν ο βαπτιζων εν πνευματι αγιω.

34And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.'

καγω εωρακα και μεμαρτυρηκα οτι ουτος εστιν ο υιος του θεου.

35Again, the next day, John stood with two of his disciples.

τη επαυριον παλιν ειστηκει ο ιωαννης και εκ των μαθητων αυτου δυο,

36And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, 'Behold the Lamb of God!'

και εμβλεψας τω ιησου περιπατουντι λεγει· ιδε ο αμνος του θεου.

37The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

και ηκουσαν αυτου οι δυο μαθηται λαλουντος, και ηκολουθησαν τω ιησου.

38Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, 'What do you seek?'

στραφεις δε ο ιησους και θεασαμενος αυτους ακολουθουντας λεγει αυτοις· τι ζητειτε; οι δε ειπον αυτω· ραββι· ο λεγεται ερμηνευομενον διδασκαλε· που μενεις;

39They said to Him, 'Rabbi' (which is to say, when translated, Teacher), 'where are You staying?' 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).

λεγει αυτοις· ερχεσθε και ιδετε. ηλθον [ουν] και ειδον που μενει, και παρ αυτω εμειναν την ημεραν εκεινην· ωρα ην ως δεκατη.

40One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

ην ανδρεας ο αδελφος σιμωνος πετρου εις εκ των δυο των ακουσαντων παρα ιωαννου και ακολουθησαντων αυτω.

41He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, 'We have found the Messiah' (which is translated, the Christ).

ευρισκει ουτος πρωτος τον αδελφον τον ιδιον σιμωνα και λεγει αυτω· ευρηκαμεν τον μεσσιαν· ο εστιν μεθερμηνευομενον χριστος·

42And he brought him to Jesus.

και ηγαγεν αυτον προς τον ιησουν. εμβλεψας αυτω ο ιησους ειπεν· συ ει σιμων ο υιος ιωνα, συ κληθηση κηφας, ο ερμηνευεται πετρος.

43Now when Jesus looked at him, He said, 'You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas' (which is translated, A Stone). The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found Philip and said to him, 'Follow Me.'

τη επαυριον ηθελησεν ο ιησους εξελθειν εις την γαλιλαιαν· και ευρισκει φιλιππον και λεγει αυτω· ακολουθει μοι.

44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

ην δε ο φιλιππος απο βηθσαιδα, εκ της πολεως ανδρεου και πετρου.

45Philip found Nathanael and said to him, 'We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.'

ευρισκει φιλιππος τον ναθαναηλ και λεγει αυτω· ον εγραψεν μωυσης εν τω νομω και οι προφηται, ευρηκαμεν, ιησουν τον υιον του ιωσηφ τον απο ναζαρετ.

46And Nathanael said to him, 'Can anything good come out of Nazareth?'

και ειπεν αυτω ναθαναηλ· εκ ναζαρετ δυναται τι αγαθον ειναι; λεγει αυτω φιλιππος· ερχου και ιδε.

47Philip said to him, 'Come and see.' Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, 'Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!'

ειδεν ο ιησους τον ναθαναηλ ερχομενον προς αυτον και λεγει περι αυτου· ιδε αληθως ισραηλιτης, εν ω δολος ουκ εστιν.

48Nathanael said to Him, 'How do You know me?'

λεγει αυτω ναθαναηλ· ποθεν με γινωσκεις; απεκριθη ιησους και ειπεν αυτω· προ του σε φιλιππον φωνησαι, οντα υπο την συκην ειδον σε.

49Jesus answered and said to him, 'Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.' Nathanael answered and said to Him, 'Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!'

απεκριθη ναθαναηλ και λεγει αυτω· ραββι, συ ει ο υιος του θεου, συ ει ο βασιλευς του ισραηλ.

50Jesus 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.'

απεκριθη ιησους και ειπεν αυτω· οτι ειπον σοι, ειδον σε υποκατω της συκης, πιστευεις; μειζω τουτων οψει.

51And He said to him, 'Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.'

και λεγει αυτω· αμην αμην λεγω υμιν, απ αρτι οψεσθε τον ουρανον ανεωγοτα, και τους αγγελους του θεου αναβαινοντας και καταβαινοντας επι τον υιον του ανθρωπου.
