John 1:14-25

¹⁴And the word, that is, God’s son, was made man or flesh, and dwelled among us, and we have seen the glory of him, as the glory of the one begotten Son of the Father, full of grace and of truth.

¹⁵John beareth witnessing of him, and crieth, and saith, This is he of whom I said, He that shall come after me, is made before me, for he was before me;

¹⁶and of the plenty of him we all have taken, and grace for grace.

¹⁷For the law was given by Moses; but grace and truth is made by Jesus Christ.

¹⁸No man saw ever or ever saw God, but the one begotten Son, that is in the bosom of the Father, he hath told out.

¹⁹And this is the witnessing of John, when Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and deacons to him, that they should ask him, Who art thou?

²⁰He acknowledged, and denied not, and he acknowledged, For I am not Christ.

²¹And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he said, I am not. Art thou a prophet? or the prophet? And he answered, Nay.

²²Therefore they said to him, Who art thou? That we give an answer to these that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

²³He said, I am a voice of a crier or a voice of a man crying in desert, Dress ye the way of the Lord, as Isaiah the prophet, said.

²⁴And they that were sent, were of the Pharisees.

²⁵And they asked him, and said to him, What then baptizest thou, if thou art not Christ, neither Elijah, neither a prophet?
