18Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that Antichrist cometh, even now there are become many Antichrists: whereby we know that it is the last hour.
19They went out from us, but they were not of us. For if they had been of us, they would no doubt have remained with us; but that they may be manifest, that they are not all of us.
20But you have the unction from the Holy One, and know all things.
21I have not written to you as to them that know not the truth, but as to them that know it: and that no lie is of the truth.
John 1:1-18

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2The same was in the beginning with God.
3All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made.
4In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7This man came for a witness, to give testimony of the light, that all men might believe through him.
8He was not the light, but was to give testimony of the light.
9That was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world.
10He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12But as many as received him, he gave them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in his name.
13Who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
15John beareth witness of him, and crieth out, saying: This was he of whom I spoke: He that shall come after me, is preferred before me: because he was before me.
16And of his fulness we all have received, and grace for grace.
17For the law was given by Moses; grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
18No man hath seen God at any time: the only begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
Galatians 4:4-7
View in: NAB NIV KJV NJB Vulg Greek
4But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent his Son, made of a woman, made under the law:
5That he might redeem them who were under the law: that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6And because you are sons, God hath sent the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying: Abba, Father.
7Therefore now he is not a servant, but a son. And if a son, an heir also through God.
Luke 2:16-21

16And they came with haste; and they found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.
17And seeing, they understood of the word that had been spoken to them concerning this child.
18And all that heard, wondered; and at those things that were told them by the shepherds.
19But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart.
20And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God, for all the things they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.
21And after eight days were accomplished, that the child should be circumcised, his name was called JESUS, which was called by the angel, before he was conceived in the womb.
1 John 2:22-28
View in: NAB NIV KJV NJB Vulg Greek
22Who is a liar, but he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denieth the Father, and the Son.
23Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father. He that confesseth the Son, hath the Father also.
24As for you, let that which you have heard from the beginning, abide in you. If that abide in you, which you have heard from the beginning, you also shall abide in the Son, and in the Father.
25And this is the promise which he hath promised us, life everlasting.
26These things have I written to you, concerning them that seduce you.
27And as for you, let the unction, which you have received from him, abide in you. And you have no need that any man teach you; but as his unction teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie. And as it hath taught you, abide in him.
28And now, little children, abide in him, that when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be confounded by him at his coming.
John 1:19-28

19And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites to him, to ask him: Who art thou?
20And he confessed, and did not deny: and he confessed: I am not the Christ.
21And they asked him: What then? Art thou Elias? And he said: I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered: No.
22They said therefore unto him: Who art thou, that we may give an answer to them that sent us? What sayest thou of thyself?
23He said: I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaias.
24And they that were sent, were of the Pharisees.
25And they asked him, and said to him: Why then dost thou baptize, if thou be not Christ, nor Elias, nor the prophet?
26John answered them, saying: I baptize with water; but there hath stood one in the midst of you, whom you know not.
27The same is he that shall come after me, who is preferred before me: the latchet of whose shoe I am not worthy to loose.
28These things were done in Bethania, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
John 1:29-34
View in: NAB NIV KJV NJB Vulg Greek
29The next day, John saw Jesus coming to him, and he saith: Behold the Lamb of God, behold him who taketh away the sin of the world.
30This is he, of whom I said: After me there cometh a man, who is preferred before me: because he was before me.
31And I knew him not, but that he may be made manifest in Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
32And John gave testimony, saying: I saw the Spirit coming down, as a dove from heaven, and he remained upon him.
33And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize with water, said to me: He upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining upon him, he it is that baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
34And I saw, and I gave testimony, that this is the Son of God.
1 John 3:7-10

7Little children, let no man deceive you. He that doth justice is just, even as he is just.
8He that committeth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God appeared, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9Whosoever is born of God, committeth not sin: for his seed abideth in him, and he can not sin, because he is born of God.
10In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil. Whosoever is not just, is not of God, nor he that loveth not his brother.

35The next day again John stood, and two of his disciples.
36And beholding Jesus walking, he saith: Behold the Lamb of God.
37And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38And Jesus turning, and seeing them following him, saith to them: What seek you? Who said to him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
39He saith to them: Come and see. They came, and saw where he abode, and they stayed with him that day: now it was about the tenth hour.
40And Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who had heard of John, and followed him.
41He findeth first his brother Simon, and saith to him: We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
42And he brought him to Jesus. And Jesus looking upon him, said: Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is interpreted Peter.

11For this is the declaration, which you have heard from the beginning, that you should love one another.
12Not as Cain, who was of the wicked one, and killed his brother. And wherefore did he kill him? Because his own works were wicked: and his brother’s just.
13Wonder not, brethren, if the world hate you.
14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not, abideth in death.
15Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer. And you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in himself.
16In this we have known the charity of God, because he hath laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17He that hath the substance of this world, and shall see his brother in need, and shall shut up his bowels from him: how doth the charity of God abide in him?
18My little children, let us not love in word, nor in tongue, but in deed, and in truth.
19In this we know that we are of the truth: and in his sight shall persuade our hearts.
20For if our heart reprehend us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
21Dearly beloved, if our heart do not reprehend us, we have confidence towards God:

43On the following day, he would go forth into Galilee, and he findeth Philip. And Jesus saith to him: Follow me.
44Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him: We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets did write, Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth.
46And Nathanael said to him: Can any thing of good come from Nazareth? Philip saith to him: Come and see.
47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him: and he saith of him: Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile.
48Nathanael saith to him: Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered, and said to him: Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49Nathanael answered him, and said: Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the King of Israel.
50Jesus answered, and said to him: Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, thou believest: greater things than these shalt thou see.
51And he saith to him: Amen, amen I say to you, you shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

3And the Gentiles shall walk in thy light, and kings in the brightness of thy rising.
4Lift up thy eyes round about, and see: all these are gathered together, they are come to thee: thy sons shall come from afar, and thy daughters shall rise up at thy side.
5Then shalt thou see, and abound, and thy heart shall wonder and be enlarged, when the multitude of the sea shall be converted to thee, the. strength of the Gentiles shall come to thee.

1When Jesus therefore was born in Bethlehem of Juda, in the days of king Herod, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem.
2Saying, Where is he that is born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to adore him.
3And king Herod hearing this, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4And assembling together all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, he inquired of them where Christ should be born.
5But they said to him: In Bethlehem of Juda. For so it is written by the prophet:
6And thou Bethlehem the land of Juda art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come forth the captain that shall rule my people Israel.
7Then Herod, privately calling the wise men, learned diligently of them the time of the star which appeared to them;
8And sending them into Bethlehem, said: Go and diligently inquire after the child, and when you have found him, bring me word again, that I also may come to adore him.
9Who having heard the king, went their way; and behold the star which they had seen in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the child was.
10And seeing the star they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
11And entering into the house, they found the child with Mary his mother, and falling down they adored him; and opening their treasures, they offered him gifts; gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
12And having received an answer in sleep that they should not return to Herod, they went back another way into their country.

32And John gave testimony, saying: I saw the Spirit coming down, as a dove from heaven, and he remained upon him.
33And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize with water, said to me: He upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining upon him, he it is that baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.
34And I saw, and I gave testimony, that this is the Son of God.

7Little children, let no man deceive you. He that doth justice is just, even as he is just.
8He that committeth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God appeared, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9Whosoever is born of God, committeth not sin: for his seed abideth in him, and he can not sin, because he is born of God.
10In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil. Whosoever is not just, is not of God, nor he that loveth not his brother.

36And beholding Jesus walking, he saith: Behold the Lamb of God.
37And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38And Jesus turning, and seeing them following him, saith to them: What seek you? Who said to him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
39He saith to them: Come and see. They came, and saw where he abode, and they stayed with him that day: now it was about the tenth hour.
40And Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who had heard of John, and followed him.

11For this is the declaration, which you have heard from the beginning, that you should love one another.
12Not as Cain, who was of the wicked one, and killed his brother. And wherefore did he kill him? Because his own works were wicked: and his brother’s just.
13Wonder not, brethren, if the world hate you.
14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not, abideth in death.
15Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer. And you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in himself.
16In this we have known the charity of God, because he hath laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17He that hath the substance of this world, and shall see his brother in need, and shall shut up his bowels from him: how doth the charity of God abide in him?
18My little children, let us not love in word, nor in tongue, but in deed, and in truth.
19In this we know that we are of the truth: and in his sight shall persuade our hearts.
20For if our heart reprehend us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
21Dearly beloved, if our heart do not reprehend us, we have confidence towards God:

43On the following day, he would go forth into Galilee, and he findeth Philip. And Jesus saith to him: Follow me.
44Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him: We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets did write, Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth.
46And Nathanael said to him: Can any thing of good come from Nazareth? Philip saith to him: Come and see.
47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him: and he saith of him: Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile.
48Nathanael saith to him: Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered, and said to him: Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49Nathanael answered him, and said: Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the King of Israel.
50Jesus answered, and said to him: Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, thou believest: greater things than these shalt thou see.

1Arise, be enlightened, O Jerusalem: for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
2For behold darkness shall cover the earth, and a mist the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3And the Gentiles shall walk in thy light, and kings in the brightness of thy rising.
4Lift up thy eyes round about, and see: all these are gathered together, they are come to thee: thy sons shall come from afar, and thy daughters shall rise up at thy side.
5Then shalt thou see, and abound, and thy heart shall wonder and be enlarged, when the multitude of the sea shall be converted to thee, the. strength of the Gentiles shall come to thee.
6The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Madian and Epha: all they from Saba shall come, bringing gold and frankincense: and shewing forth praise to the Lord.

1When Jesus therefore was born in Bethlehem of Juda, in the days of king Herod, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem.
2Saying, Where is he that is born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and are come to adore him.
3And king Herod hearing this, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4And assembling together all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, he inquired of them where Christ should be born.
5But they said to him: In Bethlehem of Juda. For so it is written by the prophet:
6And thou Bethlehem the land of Juda art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come forth the captain that shall rule my people Israel.
7Then Herod, privately calling the wise men, learned diligently of them the time of the star which appeared to them;
8And sending them into Bethlehem, said: Go and diligently inquire after the child, and when you have found him, bring me word again, that I also may come to adore him.
9Who having heard the king, went their way; and behold the star which they had seen in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the child was.
10And seeing the star they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
11And entering into the house, they found the child with Mary his mother, and falling down they adored him; and opening their treasures, they offered him gifts; gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
12And having received an answer in sleep that they should not return to Herod, they went back another way into their country.

    1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
    2The same was in the beginning with God.
    3All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made.
    4In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
    5And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
    6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
    7This man came for a witness, to give testimony of the light, that all men might believe through him.
    8He was not the light, but was to give testimony of the light.
    9That was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world.
    10He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
    11He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
    12But as many as received him, he gave them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in his name.
    13Who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
    14And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
    15John beareth witness of him, and crieth out, saying: This was he of whom I spoke: He that shall come after me, is preferred before me: because he was before me.
    16And of his fulness we all have received, and grace for grace.
    17For the law was given by Moses; grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
    18No man hath seen God at any time: the only begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

    4But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent his Son, made of a woman, made under the law:
    5That he might redeem them who were under the law: that we might receive the adoption of sons.
    6And because you are sons, God hath sent the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying: Abba, Father.
    7Therefore now he is not a servant, but a son. And if a son, an heir also through God.

    18And all that heard, wondered; and at those things that were told them by the shepherds.
    19But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart.
    20And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God, for all the things they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

    22Who is a liar, but he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denieth the Father, and the Son.
    23Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father. He that confesseth the Son, hath the Father also.
    24As for you, let that which you have heard from the beginning, abide in you. If that abide in you, which you have heard from the beginning, you also shall abide in the Son, and in the Father.
    25And this is the promise which he hath promised us, life everlasting.
    26These things have I written to you, concerning them that seduce you.
    27And as for you, let the unction, which you have received from him, abide in you. And you have no need that any man teach you; but as his unction teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie. And as it hath taught you, abide in him.
    28And now, little children, abide in him, that when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be confounded by him at his coming.

    19And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites to him, to ask him: Who art thou?
    20And he confessed, and did not deny: and he confessed: I am not the Christ.
    21And they asked him: What then? Art thou Elias? And he said: I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered: No.
    22They said therefore unto him: Who art thou, that we may give an answer to them that sent us? What sayest thou of thyself?
    23He said: I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaias.
    24And they that were sent, were of the Pharisees.
    25And they asked him, and said to him: Why then dost thou baptize, if thou be not Christ, nor Elias, nor the prophet?
    26John answered them, saying: I baptize with water; but there hath stood one in the midst of you, whom you know not.
    27The same is he that shall come after me, who is preferred before me: the latchet of whose shoe I am not worthy to loose.
    28These things were done in Bethania, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
