John's Prologue (GospJohn 1: 9-14)

Excerpt of REVISED NEW JERUSALEM translation:

The true light that gives

light to everyone

was coming into the world!

He was in the world

and the world came into

being through him,

and the world did not know him.

He came to what was his own

and his own people did not

accept him

But to those who did accept him

he gave power to become

children of God,

to those who believed in his

name, who were born not from

blood, or from the will of the

flesh, or from human will

but from God himself.

The Word became flesh,

and lived among us, 

and we saw his glory,

the glory as of an

only-begotten Son 

of the Father, 

full of grace and truth!
