¹In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

¹Alguses oli Sõna ja Sõna oli Jumala juures ja Sõna oli Jumal.

²The same was in the beginning with God.

²Seesama oli alguses Jumala juures.

³All things were made through him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made.

³Kõik on tekkinud tema läbi ja ilma temata ei ole tekkinud midagi. Mis on tekkinud

⁴In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

⁴tema kaudu, oli elu, ja elu oli inimeste valgus.

⁵And the light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness apprehended it not.

⁵Ja valgus paistab pimeduses, ja pimedus ei ole seda omaks võtnud.

⁶There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.

⁶Oli Jumala läkitatud mees, nimega Johannes,

⁷The same came for witness, that he might bear witness of the light, that all might believe through him.

⁷see pidi tunnistust andma, tunnistama valgusest, et kõik hakkaksid tema kaudu uskuma.

⁸He was not the light, but [came] that he might bear witness of the light.

⁸Tema ise ei olnud valgus, vaid ta pidi tunnistama valgusest.

⁹There was the true light, [even the light] which lighteth every man, coming into the world.

⁹Tõeline valgus, mis valgustab iga inimest, oli maailma tulemas.

¹⁰He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world knew him not.

¹⁰Ta oli maailmas, ja maailm on tekkinud tema läbi, ja maailm ei tundnud teda ära.

¹¹He came unto his own, and they that were his own received him not.

¹¹Ta tuli omade keskele, ent omad ei võtnud teda vastu.

¹²But as many as received him, to them gave he the right to become children of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:

¹²Aga kõigile, kes tema vastu võtsid, andis ta meelevalla saada Jumala lasteks, neile, kes usuvad tema nimesse,

¹³who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

¹³kes ei ole sündinud verest, ei liha tahtest, ei mehe tahtest, vaid Jumalast.

¹⁴And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth.

¹⁴Ja Sõna sai lihaks ja elas meie keskel, ja me nägime tema kirkust nagu Isast Ainusündinu kirkust, täis armu ja tõde.

¹⁵John beareth witness of him, and crieth, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that cometh after me is become before me: for he was before me.

¹⁵Johannes tunnistas temast ja hüüdis valjusti: 'Tema ongi see, kelle kohta mina ütlesin: See, kes tuleb pärast mind, on olnud minu eel, sest tema oli enne kui mina.'

¹⁶For of his fulness we all received, and grace for grace.

¹⁶Jah, meie kõik oleme võtnud tema täiusest, ja armu armu peale.

¹⁷For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

¹⁷Seadus on ju antud Moosese kaudu, arm ja tõde aga tulnud Jeesuse Kristuse kaudu.

¹⁸No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].

¹⁸Keegi ei ole iialgi näinud Jumalat. Ainusündinud Poeg, kes on Isa rinna najal, tema on meile teate toonud.

¹⁹And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent unto him from Jerusalem priests and Levites to ask him, Who art thou?

¹⁹Ja see on Johannese tunnistus, kui juudid läkitasid tema juurde Jeruusalemmast preestreid ja leviite küsima: 'Kes sina oled?'

²⁰And he confessed, and denied not; and he confessed, I am not the Christ.

²⁰Tema tunnistas ega salanud, vaid tunnistas: 'Mina ei ole Messias.'

²¹And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he saith, I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered, No.

²¹Ja nad küsisid temalt: 'Kes siis? Kas sa oled Eelija?' Ja ta ütles: 'Ei ole.' - 'Kas sa oled prohvet?' Aga tema vastas: 'Ei.'

²²They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

²²Siis nad ütlesid talle: 'Kes sa siis oled? Me peame andma vastuse neile, kes meid läkitasid. Kelleks sa ennast nimetad?'

²³He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said Isaiah the prophet.

²³Ta lausus: 'Mina olen hüüdja hääl kõrbes: Tehke tasaseks Issanda tee, nõnda nagu prohvet Jesaja on ütelnud.'

²⁴And they had been sent from the Pharisees.

²⁴Aga läkitatuid oli ka variseride seast.

²⁵And they asked him, and said unto him, Why then baptizest thou, if thou art not the Christ, neither Elijah, neither the prophet?

²⁵Ja need küsisid Johanneselt: 'Kui sa ei ole Messias ega Eelija ega prohvet, miks sa siis ristid?'

²⁶John answered them, saying, I baptize in water: in the midst of you standeth one whom ye know not,

²⁶Tema vastas neile: 'Mina ristin veega, aga teie keskel, kuigi teie teda ei tea, seisab juba see,

²⁷[even] he that cometh after me, the latchet of whose shoe I am not worthy to unloose.

²⁷kes tuleb pärast mind. Mina ei ole väärt tema jalatsipaelagi lahti päästma.'

²⁸These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

²⁸See juhtus Betaanias, sealpool Jordanit, kus Johannes oli ristimas.

²⁹On the morrow he seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world!

²⁹Järgmisel päeval nägi Johannes Jeesust enda juurde tulevat ja ütles: 'Vaata, see on Jumala Tall, kes kannab ära maailma patu.

³⁰This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man who is become before me: for he was before me.

³⁰Tema ongi see, kelle kohta ma ütlesin: Pärast mind tuleb mees, kes on olnud minu eel, sest tema oli enne kui mina.

³¹And I knew him not; but that he should be made manifest to Israel, for this cause came I baptizing in water.

³¹Minagi ei teadnud, kes ta on, kuid ma olen tulnud ristima veega selleks, et tema saaks avalikuks Iisraelile.'

³²And John bare witness, saying, I have beheld the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven; and it abode upon him.

³²Ja Johannes tunnistas: 'Ma nägin Vaimu tuvina taevast laskuvat ja tema peale jäävat.

³³And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize in water, he said unto me, Upon whomsoever thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and abiding upon him, the same is he that baptizeth in the Holy Spirit.

³³Minagi ei teadnud, kes ta on, kuid see, kes minu läkitas veega ristima, tema ütles mulle: Kelle peale sa näed Vaimu laskuvat ja tema peale jäävat, see ongi, kes ristib Püha Vaimuga.

³⁴And I have seen, and have borne witness that this is the Son of God.

³⁴Ja ma olen näinud ja tunnistanud, et seesama on Jumala Poeg.'

³⁵Again on the morrow John was standing, and two of his disciples;

³⁵Järgmisel päeval seisis Johannes jälle seal koos kahe oma jüngriga.

³⁶and he looked upon Jesus as he walked, and saith, Behold, the Lamb of God!

³⁶Kui Jeesus läks neist mööda, ütles Johannes talle otsa vaadates: 'Vaata, see on Jumala Tall.'

³⁷And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

³⁷Ja mõlemad jüngrid kuulsid, mida ta ütles, ja läksid Jeesusega kaasa.

³⁸And Jesus turned, and beheld them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? And they said unto him, Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), where abideth thou?

³⁸Aga Jeesus pöördus ümber ja nähes neid kaasa tulemas, küsis neilt: 'Mida te otsite?' Nemad ütlesid talle: 'Rabi,' - see on tõlkes 'Õpetaja' - 'kus sa oled öömajal?'

³⁹He saith unto them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day: it was about the tenth hour.

³⁹Ta ütles neile: 'Tulge ja vaadake!' Nad tulid siis ja nägid, kus ta oli öömajal, ja jäidki sel päeval tema juurde. Oli umbes neljas tund pärast lõunat.

⁴⁰One of the two that heard John [speak], and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

⁴⁰Üks neist kahest, kes oli kuulnud, mida Johannes ütles, ja Jeesusega kaasa läinud, oli Andreas, Siimon Peetruse vend.

⁴¹He findeth first his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being interpreted, Christ).

⁴¹Ta leidis esmalt oma venna Siimona ja ütles talle: 'Me oleme leidnud Messia!' - see on tõlkes 'Kristuse'.

⁴²He brought him unto Jesus. Jesus looked upon him, and said, Thou art Simon the son of John: thou shalt be called Cephas (which is by interpretation, Peter).

⁴²Andreas viis venna Jeesuse juurde. Jeesus ütles tollele otsa vaadates: 'Sina oled Siimon, Johannese poeg, sind peab hüütama Keefaseks!' - see on tõlkes Peetruseks.

⁴³On the morrow he was minded to go forth into Galilee, and he findeth Philip: and Jesus saith unto him, Follow me.

⁴³Järgmisel päeval tahtis Jeesus minna Galileasse. Ja ta leidis Filippuse ja ütles talle: 'Järgne mulle!'

⁴⁴Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.

⁴⁴Filippus oli pärit Andrease ja Peetruse kodukülast Betsaidast.

⁴⁵Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

⁴⁵Filippus leidis Naatanaeli ja ütles talle: 'Me oleme leidnud tema, kellest on kirjutanud Mooses Seaduses ja Prohvetid: Jeesuse, Joosepi poja Naatsaretist.'

⁴⁶And Nathanael said unto him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

⁴⁶Ja Naatanael ütles talle: 'Mis võib küll Naatsaretist head tulla?' Filippus ütles talle: 'Tule ja vaata!'

⁴⁷Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

⁴⁷Jeesus nägi Naatanaeli enda juurde tulevat ja ütles tema kohta: 'Ennäe, tõeline iisraeli mees, kelles ei ole valet.'

⁴⁸Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

⁴⁸Naatanael küsis temalt: 'Kust sa mind tunned?' Jeesus vastas ja ütles talle: 'Ma nägin sind viigipuu all, enne kui Filippus sind hüüdis.'

⁴⁹Nathanael answered him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art King of Israel.

⁴⁹Naatanael ütles talle: 'Rabi, sina oled Jumala Poeg, sina oled Iisraeli kuningas!'

⁵⁰Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee underneath the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

⁵⁰Jeesus vastas talle: 'Kas sa usud vaid seepärast, et ma ütlesin sulle, et nägin sind viigipuu all? Sa saad näha suuremaid asju kui need.'

⁵¹And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

⁵¹Ja Jeesus ütles talle: 'Tõesti, tõesti, ma ütlen teile, te näete taevast avatuna ja Jumala ingleid astuvat üles ja alla Inimese Poja juurde.'
