2 This was in the beginning with Aloha.
3 Every thing by his hand was made; and without him also was not one thing made that was made.
4 In him was life, and the life is the light of the sons of man;
5 and the Light himself in the darkness shineth, and the darkness perceived him not.
6 There was a man who was sent from Aloha, his name (was) Juchanon. [Pronounced Yu'hanon.]
7 He came for the testimony, to testify concerning the Light, that all men might believe through his ministry.[By his hand.]
8 He was not the Light himself, but came to testify concerning the Light.
9 For that was the true Light that enlighteneth every man who cometh into the world.
10 In the world was he, and the world by his hand had been made, and the world knew him not.
11 He came to his own, and his own received him not.
12 But they who received him, he gave to them power, that the sons of Aloha they should become, to those who believe in his name.
13 These, not from blood, nor from the will of the flesh, nor from the will of man, but from Aloha, are born.
14 And the Word flesh was made, and tabernacled with us; and we saw his glory, the glory as of the one-begotten who (was) from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 Juchanon testified concerning him, and cried, and said, This is he of whom I said, that he cometh after me, and was before* me, because he is anterior** to me. [* Kedom, coram, ante. ** Kadomi, antiquus, vetus, prior, anterior.]
16 And from his fulness we all have received, and grace for grace.
17 For the law by the hand of Musha was given; but the truth and the grace were by Jeshu Meshicha.
18 ALOHA no man hath ever seen: the one-begotten God, he who is in the bosom of his Father, he hath declared him.
