| John 1:8 | He himself was not the light: he was sent to give witness about the light. | *He* was not the light, but that he might witness concerning the light. | that one was not the Light, but that he might testify about the Light. |
| John 1:9 | The true light, which gives light to every man, was then coming into the world. | The true light was that which, coming into the world, lightens every man. | He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world; |

| John 1:11 | He came to the things which were his and his people did not take him to their hearts. | He came to his own, and his own received him not; | to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him; |
| John 1:12 | To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God that is, to those who had faith in his name: | but as many as received him, to them gave he [the] right to be children of God, to those that believe on his name; | but as many as did receive him to them he gave authority to become sons of God to those believing in his name, |
| John 1:13 | Whose birth was from God and not from blood, or from an impulse of the flesh and man's desire. | who have been born, not of blood, nor of flesh's will, nor of man's will, but of God. | who not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but of God were begotten. |

| John 1:15 | John gave witness about him, crying, This is he of whom I said, He who is coming after me is put over me because he was in existence before me. | (John bears witness of him, and he has cried, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that comes after me is preferred before me, for he was before me;) | John doth testify concerning him, and hath cried, saying, `This was he of whom I said, He who after me is coming, hath come before me, for he was before me;` |
