¹U početku bijaše Riječ i Riječ bijaše u Boga i Riječ bijaše Bog.

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

²Ona bijaše u početku u Boga.

²*He* was in the beginning with God.

³Sve postade po njoj i bez nje ne postade ništa. Svemu što postade

³All things received being through him, and without him not one [thing] received being which has received being.

⁴u njoj bijaše život i život bijaše ljudima svjetlo;

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

⁵i svjetlo u tami svijetli i tama ga ne obuze.

⁵And the light appears in darkness, and the darkness apprehended it not.

⁶Bi čovjek poslan od Boga, ime mu Ivan.

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

⁷On dođe kao svjedok da posvjedoči za Svjetlo da svi vjeruju po njemu.

⁷He came for witness, that he might witness concerning the light, that all might believe through him.

⁸Ne bijaše on Svjetlo, nego - da posvjedoči za Svjetlo.

⁸*He* was not the light, but that he might witness concerning the light.

⁹Svjetlo istinsko koje prosvjetljuje svakog čovjeka dođe na svijet;

⁹The true light was that which, coming into the world, lightens every man.

¹⁰bijaše na svijetu i svijet po njemu posta i svijet ga ne upozna.

¹⁰He was in the world, and the world had [its] being through him, and the world knew him not.

¹¹K svojima dođe i njegovi ga ne primiše.

¹¹He came to his own, and his own received him not;

¹²A onima koji ga primiše podade moć da postanu djeca Božja: onima koji vjeruju u njegovo ime,

¹²but as many as received him, to them gave he [the] right to be children of God, to those that believe on his name;

¹³koji su rođeni ne od krvi, ni od volje tjelesne, ni od volje muževlje, nego - od Boga.

¹³who have been born, not of blood, nor of flesh's will, nor of man's will, but of God.

¹⁴I Riječ tijelom postade i nastani se među nama i vidjesmo slavu njegovu - slavu koju ima kao Jedinorođenac od Oca - pun milosti i istine.

¹⁴And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we have contemplated his glory, a glory as of an only-begotten with a father), full of grace and truth;

¹⁵Ivan svjedoči za njega. Viče: "To je onaj o kojem rekoh: koji za mnom dolazi, preda mnom je jer bijaše prije mene!"

¹⁵(John bears witness of him, and he has cried, saying, This was he of whom I said, He that comes after me is preferred before me, for he was before me;)

¹⁶Doista, od punine njegove svi mi primismo, i to milost na milost.

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

¹⁷Uistinu, Zakon bijaše dan po Mojsiju, a milost i istina nasta po Isusu Kristu.

¹⁷For the law was given by Moses: grace and truth subsists through Jesus Christ.

¹⁸Boga nitko nikada ne vidje: Jedinorođenac - Bog - koji je u krilu Očevu, on ga obznani.

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

¹⁹A evo svjedočanstva Ivanova. Kad su Židovi iz Jeruzalema poslali k njemu svećenike i levite da ga upitaju: "Tko si ti?",

¹⁹And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites that they might ask him, Thou, who art thou?

²⁰on prizna; ne zanijeka, nego prizna: "Ja nisam Krist."

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

²¹Upitaše ga nato: "Što dakle? Jesi li Ilija?" Odgovori: "Nisam." "Jesi li Prorok?" Odgovori: "Ne."

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

²²Tada mu rekoše: "Pa tko si da dadnemo odgovor onima koji su nas poslali? Što kažeš sam o sebi?"

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

²³On odgovori: "Ja sam glas koji viče u pustinji: Poravnite put Gospodnji! - kako reče prorok Izaija."

²³He said, I [am] [the] voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the path of [the] Lord, as said Esaias the prophet.

²⁴A neki izaslanici bijahu farizeji.

²⁴And they were sent from among the Pharisees.

²⁵Oni prihvatiše riječ i upitaše ga: "Zašto onda krstiš kad nisi Krist, ni Ilija, ni Prorok?"

²⁵And they asked him and said to him, Why baptisest thou then, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elias, nor the prophet?

²⁶Ivan im odgovori: "Ja krstim vodom. Među vama stoji koga vi ne poznate -

²⁶John answered them saying, I baptise with water. In the midst of you stands, whom ye do not know,

²⁷onaj koji za mnom dolazi, komu ja nisam dostojan odriješiti remenje na obući."

²⁷he who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to unloose.

²⁸To se dogodilo u Betaniji s onu stranu Jordana, gdje je Ivan krstio.

²⁸These things took place in Bethany, across the Jordan, where John was baptising.

²⁹Sutradan Ivan ugleda Isusa gdje dolazi k njemu pa reče: "Evo Jaganjca Božjega koji odnosi grijeh svijeta!"

²⁹On the morrow he sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.

³⁰To je onaj o kojem rekoh: Za mnom dolazi čovjek koji je preda mnom jer bijaše prije mene!"

³⁰He it is of whom I said, A man comes after me who takes a place before me, because he *was* before me;

³¹"Ja ga nisam poznavao, ali baš zato dođoh i krstim vodom da se on očituje Izraelu."

³¹and I knew him not; but that he might be manifested to Israel, therefore have I come baptising with water.

³²I posvjedoči Ivan: "Promatrao sam Duha gdje s neba silazi kao golub i ostaje na njemu.

³²And John bore witness, saying, I beheld the Spirit descending as a dove from heaven, and it abode upon him.

³³Njega ja nisam poznavao, ali onaj koji me posla vodom krstiti reče mi: 'Na koga vidiš da Duh silazi i ostaje na njemu, to je onaj koji krsti Duhom Svetim.'

³³And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptise with water, *he* said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, he it is who baptises with [the] Holy Spirit.

³⁴I ja sam to vidio i svjedočim: on je Sin Božji."

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

³⁵Sutradan opet stajaše Ivan s dvojicom svojih učenika.

³⁵Again, on the morrow, there stood John and two of his disciples.

³⁶Ugleda Isusa koji je onuda prolazio i reče: "Evo Jaganjca Božjega!"

³⁶And, looking at Jesus as he walked, he says, Behold the Lamb of God.

³⁷Te njegove riječi čula ona dva njegova učenika pa pođoše za Isusom.

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

³⁸Isus se obazre i vidjevši da idu za njim, upita ih: "Što tražite?" Oni mu rekoše: "Rabbi" - što znači: "Učitelju - gdje stanuješ?"

³⁸But Jesus having turned, and seeing them following, says to them, What seek ye? And *they* said to him, Rabbi (which, being interpreted, signifies Teacher), where abidest thou?

³⁹Reče im: "Dođite i vidjet ćete." Pođoše dakle i vidješe gdje stanuje i ostadoše kod njega onaj dan. Bila je otprilike deseta ura.

³⁹He says to them, Come and see. They went therefore, and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.

⁴⁰Jedan od one dvojice, koji su čuvši Ivana pošli za Isusom, bijaše Andrija, brat Šimuna Petra.

⁴⁰Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard [this] from John and followed him.

⁴¹On najprije nađe svoga brata Šimuna te će mu: "Našli smo Mesiju!" - što znači "Krist - Pomazanik".

⁴¹He first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found the Messias (which being interpreted is Christ).

⁴²Dovede ga Isusu, a Isus ga pogleda i reče: "Ti si Šimun, sin Ivanov! Zvat ćeš se Kefa!" - što znači "Petar - Stijena".

⁴²And he led him to Jesus. Jesus looking at him said, Thou art Simon, the son of Jonas; thou shalt be called Cephas (which interpreted is stone).

⁴³Sutradan naumi Isus poći u Galileju. Nađe Filipa i reče mu: "Pođi za mnom!"

⁴³On the morrow he would go forth into Galilee, and Jesus finds Philip, and says to him, Follow me.

⁴⁴Filip je bio iz Betsaide, iz grada Andrijina i Petrova.

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

⁴⁵Filip nađe Natanaela i javi mu: "Našli smo onoga o kome je pisao Mojsije u Zakonu i Proroci: Isusa, sina Josipova, iz Nazareta."

⁴⁵Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, We have found him of whom Moses wrote in the law, and the prophets, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is from Nazareth.

⁴⁶Reče mu Natanael: "Iz Nazareta da može biti što dobro?" Kaže mu Filip: "Dođi i vidi."

⁴⁶And Nathanael said to him, Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see.

⁴⁷Kad Isus ugleda gdje Natanael dolazi k njemu, reče za njega: "Evo istinitog Izraelca u kojem nema prijevare!"

⁴⁷Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says of him, Behold [one] truly an Israelite, in whom there is no guile.

⁴⁸Kaže mu Natanael: "Odakle me poznaješ?" Odgovori mu Isus: "Vidjeh te prije negoli te Filip pozva, dok si bio pod smokvom."

⁴⁸Nathanael says 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.

⁴⁹Nato će mu Natanael: "Učitelju, ti si Sin Božji! Ti kralj si Izraelov!"

⁴⁹Nathanael answered and said to him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the King of Israel.

⁵⁰Odgovori mu Isus: "Stoga što ti rekoh: 'Vidjeh te pod smokvom', vjeruješ. I više ćeš od toga vidjeti!"

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

⁵¹I nadoda: "Zaista, zaista, kažem vam: gledat ćete otvoreno nebo i anđele Božje gdje uzlaze i silaze nad Sina Čovječjega."

⁵¹And he says to him, Verily, verily, I say to you, Henceforth ye shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of man.
