约翰福音第1章(John 1) 的 简体中文(和合本) 与 英文(NIV版) 对照全文:
📖 约翰福音 1章(和合本)
1 太初有道,道与神同在,道就是神。
2 这道太初与神同在。
3 万物是借着他造的;凡被造的,没有一样不是借着他造的。
4 生命在他里头,这生命就是人的光。
5 光照在黑暗里,黑暗却不接受光。
6 有一个人,是从神那里差来的,名叫约翰。
7 这人来,为要作见证,就是为光作见证,叫众人因他可以信。
8 他不是那光,乃是要为光作见证。
9 那光是真光,照亮一切生在世上的人。
10 他在世界,世界也是借着他造的,世界却不认识他。
11 他到自己的地方来,自己的人倒不接待他。
12 凡接待他的,就是信他名的人,他就赐他们权柄,作神的儿女。
13 这等人不是从血气生的,不是从情欲生的,也不是从人意生的,乃是从神生的。
14 道成了肉身,住在我们中间,充充满满地有恩典有真理。我们也见过他的荣光,正是父独生子的荣光。
15 约翰为他作见证,喊着说:“这就是我曾说,那在我以后来的,反成了在我以前的,因为他本来在我以前。”
16 从他丰满的恩典里,我们都领受了,而且恩上加恩。
17 律法本是借着摩西传的,恩典和真理都是由耶稣基督来的。
18 从来没有人看见神,只有在父怀里的独生子将他表明出来。
19 约翰所作的见证,记在下面:犹太人从耶路撒冷差祭司和利未人到约翰那里,问他说:“你是谁?”
20 他就明说,并不隐瞒,明说:“我不是基督。”
21 他们又问他说:“这样,你是谁呢?是以利亚吗?”他说:“我不是。”“是那先知吗?”他回答说:“不是。”
22 于是他们说:“你到底是谁?叫我们好回复差我们来的人。你自己说,你是谁?”
23 他说:“我就是那在旷野有人声喊着说:‘修直主的道路’,正如先知以赛亚所说的。”
24 那些人是法利赛人差来的。
25 他们就问他说:“你既不是基督,不是以利亚,也不是那先知,为什么施洗呢?”
26 约翰回答说:“我用水施洗,但有一位站在你们中间,是你们不认识的,
27 就是那在我以后来的,我给他解鞋带也不配。”
28 这是在约旦河外伯大尼,约翰施洗的地方作的见证。
29 次日,约翰看见耶稣来到他那里,就说:“看哪,神的羔羊,除去世人罪孽的!
30 这就是我曾说:‘有一位在我以后来,反成了在我以前的,因为他本来在我以前。’
31 我先前不认识他,如今我来用水施洗,为要叫他显明给以色列人。”
32 约翰又作见证说:“我曾看见圣灵仿佛鸽子从天降下,住在他的身上。
33 我先前不认识他,只是那差我来用水施洗的对我说:‘你看见圣灵降下来,住在谁的身上,谁就是用圣灵施洗的。’
34 我看见了,就证明这是神的儿子。”
35 再次日,约翰同两个门徒站在那里。
36 他见耶稣行走,就说:“看哪,这是神的羔羊!”
37 两个门徒听见他的话,就跟从了耶稣。
38 耶稣转过身来,看见他们跟着,就问他们说:“你们要什么?”他们说:“拉比(翻出来就是夫子),你在哪里住?”
39 耶稣说:“你们来看。”他们就去看他在哪里住,这一天便与他同住,那时约有申正了。
40 听见约翰的话跟从耶稣的那两个人,一个是西门彼得的兄弟安得烈。
41 他先找着自己的哥哥西门,对他说:“我们遇见弥赛亚了。”(弥赛亚翻出来就是基督。)
42 于是领他去见耶稣。耶稣看着他说:“你是约翰的儿子西门,你要称为矶法。”(矶法翻出来就是彼得。)
43 又次日,耶稣想要往加利利去,遇见腓力,就对他说:“来跟从我吧。”
44 这腓力是伯赛大人,和安得烈、彼得同城。
45 腓力找着拿但业,对他说:“摩西在律法上所写的和众先知所记的那一位,我们遇见了,就是约瑟的儿子拿撒勒人耶稣。”
46 拿但业对他说:“拿撒勒还能出什么好的吗?”腓力说:“你来看。”
47 耶稣看见拿但业来,就指着他说:“看哪,这是个真以色列人,他心里是没有诡诈的。”
48 拿但业对他说:“你从哪里知道我呢?”耶稣回答说:“腓力还没有招呼你,你在无花果树底下,我就看见你了。”
49 拿但业说:“拉比,你是神的儿子,你是以色列的王!”
50 耶稣对他说:“因我说‘在无花果树底下看见你’,你就信吗?你将要看见比这更大的事。”
51 又说:“我实实在在地告诉你们,你们将要看见天开了,神的使者上去下来在人子身上。”
📖 John 1 (NIV)
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
6 There was a man sent from God whose name was John.
7 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe.
8 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light.
9 The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.
10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.
11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.
12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—
13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 (John testified concerning him. He cried out, saying, “This is the one I spoke about when I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’”)
16 Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given.
17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.
19 Now this was John’s testimony when the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was.
20 He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Messiah.”
21 They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.”
22 Finally they said, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
23 John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, “I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’”
24 Now the Pharisees who had been sent
25 questioned him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”
26 “I baptize with water,” John replied, “but among you stands one you do not know.
27 He is the one who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”
28 This all happened at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
30 This is the one I meant when I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’
31 I myself did not know him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that he might be revealed to Israel.”
32 Then John gave this testimony: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him.
33 And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
34 I have seen and I testify that this is God’s Chosen One.”
35 The next day John was there again with two of his disciples.
36 When he saw Jesus passing by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
37 When the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.
38 Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked, “What do you want?” They said, “Rabbi” (which means “Teacher”), “where are you staying?”
39 “Come,” he replied, “and you will see.” So they went and saw where he was staying, and they spent that day with him. It was about four in the afternoon.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus.
41 The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ).
42 And he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which, when translated, is Peter).
43 The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip, he said to him, “Follow me.”
44 Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida.
45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law, and about whom the prophets also wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
46 “Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip.
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, “Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.”
48 “How do you know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, “I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.”
49 Then Nathanael declared, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the king of Israel.”
50 Jesus said, “You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.”
51 He then added, “Very truly I tell you, you will see ‘heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on’ the Son of Man.”

约翰福音第1章 · 问答
问: 太初有道,这里的“道”是不是指耶稣?
答: 是的。“道”不仅与神同在,而且就是神本身。它是创造的根源,生命和光都从这里来。约翰在开篇就强调,耶稣是宇宙的根基。
问: 光照在黑暗里,但黑暗却不接受光。这是不是指人心的盲目?
答: 可以这样理解。这里的黑暗象征人类的不信与罪性。光虽然来临,但世人多拒绝它。只有接受光的人,才得着新的生命。
问: 那约翰在这里的作用是什么?
答: 施洗约翰不是光,而是为光作见证的人。他指向耶稣,说:“看哪,神的羔羊,除去世人罪孽的!”他的使命是为弥赛亚预备道路。
问: 我看到一句话:“道成了肉身,住在我们中间。”这是不是本章的核心?
答: 正是如此。这里揭示了基督信仰最重要的奥秘:上帝以人的形象进入历史,带来恩典和真理。人们不再是远远仰望神,而是能在耶稣身上真实看见神。
问: 那么信他的人会得到什么?
答: 凡信耶稣名的人,就被赐予权柄作神的儿女。这种身份不是出于人的意志,而是出于神的生。
问: 我注意到耶稣还召唤了第一批门徒。
答: 是的,安得烈、西门彼得、腓力、拿但业都在本章出现。他们从起初就认出耶稣是弥赛亚、神的儿子、以色列的王。这显示了信仰的起点:一个人回应“你来看”的邀请,就进入与主同行的生命。
问: 所以整章可以总结为:耶稣是神的道、真光、神的羔羊,他来到世上,使信他的人得以成为神的儿女。
答: 对,这就是第一章的中心信息,也是整卷约翰福音的基调。
John 1 · Concise Summary
In the beginning was the Word — the Word was God; all things were created through Him. In Him was life and light. The Light shines in the darkness — the darkness cannot overcome it; the true Light enlightens all people. John’s testimony — John the Baptist was not the Light; he bore witness to the Light, declaring Jesus as the Lamb of God. The Word became flesh — Jesus (the Word) took on human form and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth. Children of God — all who believe in His name are given the right to become children of God. The call of Jesus — Jesus begins calling disciples (Andrew, Simon Peter, Philip, Nathanael). They recognize Him as the Messiah, the Son of God.
👉 Core Message:
Jesus is God’s Word, the true Light, the Lamb of God. He came into the world so that those who believe in Him may become children of God.
John 1 · Q&A
Q: “In the beginning was the Word.” Does “the Word” refer to Jesus?
A: Yes. The Word was both with God and was God Himself. It is the source of creation; life and light flow from it. John emphasizes at the outset that Jesus is the foundation of the universe.
Q: “The Light shines in the darkness, but the darkness did not receive it.” Does this mean the blindness of the human heart?
A: That is one way to understand it. The darkness symbolizes unbelief and sin. Although the Light came, many rejected it. Only those who receive the Light gain new life.
Q: What is John the Baptist’s role here?
A: John was not the Light but a witness to it. He pointed to Jesus, saying: “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” His mission was to prepare the way for the Messiah.
Q: I see the phrase, “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” Is this the core of the chapter?
A: Exactly. This reveals the central mystery of the Christian faith: God entered history in human form, bringing grace and truth. No longer must people only look from afar — in Jesus, they can truly see God.
Q: What do those who believe in Him receive?
A: Everyone who believes in His name is given the authority to become a child of God. This new identity comes not from human will, but from God’s own act of giving life.
Q: I notice Jesus also called His first disciples.
A: Yes. Andrew, Simon Peter, Philip, and Nathanael all appear here. From the very beginning, they recognized Him as the Messiah, the Son of God, the King of Israel. Faith begins with responding to His invitation: “Come and see,” and entering a life of walking with Him.
Q: So the whole chapter can be summed up as: Jesus is the Word, the true Light, the Lamb of God; He came into the world so that those who believe in Him may become children of God.
A: Correct. That is the central message of Chapter 1 and sets the tone for the entire Gospel of John.
