John 1:12-18

Moffatt(i) 12 On those who have accepted him, however, he has conferred the right of being children of God, that is, on those who believe in his Name, 13 who owe this birth of theirs to God, not to human blood, nor to any impulse of the flesh or of man. 14 So the Logos became flesh and tarried among us; we have seen his glory — glory such as an only son enjoys from his father — seen it to be full of grace and reality. 15 (John testified to him with the cry, 'This was he of whom I said, my successor has taken precedence of me, for he preceded me.') 16 For we have all been receiving grace after grace from his fulness; 17 while the Law was given through Moses, grace and reality are ours through Jesus Christ. 18 Nobody has ever seen God, but God has been unfolded by the divine One, the only Son, who lies upon the Father's breast.
