John 1:4-9
English Standard Version
4 (A)In him was life,[a] and (B)the life was the light of men. 5 (C)The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
6 There was a man (D)sent from God, whose name was (E)John. 7 He came as a (F)witness, to bear witness about the light, (G)that all might believe through him. 8 (H)He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light.
9 (I)The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.
