In context
2 this one was in the beginning with God;
3 all things through him did happen, and without him happened not even one thing that hath happened.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men,
5 and the light in the darkness did shine, and the darkness did not perceive it.
6 There came a man--having been sent from God--whose name is John,
7 this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;
8 that one was not the Light, but--that he might testify about the Light.
