7This man came as a witness, to testify about the light, that all through him might believe.
8He wasn’t that light, but was sent as a witness of that light.
9The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10The Word was in the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world didn’t recognize Him.
11He came to His own, and those who were His own didn’t receive Him.
