WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1 EN el principio era el Verbo, y el Verbo era con Dios, y el Verbo era Dios.
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.
2 Este era en el principio con Dios.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made.
3 Todas las cosas por él fueron hechas; y sin él nada de lo que es hecho, fué hecho.
3 All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.
4 En él estaba la vida, y la vida era la luz de los hombres.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
5 Y la luz en las tinieblas resplandece; mas las tinieblas no la comprendieron.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
6 There came a man who was sent from God. His name was John.
6 Fué un hombre enviado de Dios, el cual se llamaba Juan.
6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe.
7 Este vino por testimonio, para que diese testimonio de la luz, para que todos creyesen por él.
7 The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
8 He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
8 No era él la luz, sino para que diese testimonio de la luz.
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9 The true Light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.
9 [Aquél] era la luz verdadera, que alumbra á todo hombre que viene á este mundo.
9 The true light that enlightens 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.
10 En el mundo estaba, y el mundo fué hecho por él; y el mundo no le conoció.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
11 A lo suyo vino, y los suyos no le recibieron.
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
12 But to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God—
12 Mas á todos los que le recibieron, dióles potestad de ser hechos hijos de Dios, á los que creen en su nombre:
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:
13 children born not of blood, nor of the desire or will of man, but born of God.
13 Los cuales no son engendrados de sangre, ni de voluntad de carne, ni de voluntad de varón, mas de Dios.
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but 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 from the Father, full of grace and truth.
14 Y aquel Verbo fué hecho carne, y habitó entre nosotros (y vimos su gloria, gloria como del unigénito del Padre), lleno de gracia y de verdad.
14 The Word became flesh and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the only born Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 John testified concerning Him. He cried out, saying, “This is He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’”
15 Juan dió testimonio de él, y clamó diciendo: Este es del que [yo] decía: El que viene tras mí, es antes de mí: porque es primero que yo.
15 John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”
16 From His fullness we have all received grace upon grace.
16 Porque de su plenitud tomamos todos, y gracia por gracia.
16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
17 Porque la ley por Moisés fué dada: [mas] la gracia y la verdad por Jesucristo fué hecha.
17 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
18◆ No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is at the Father’s side, has made Him known.
18 A Dios nadie le vió jamás: el unigénito Hijo, que está en el seno del Padre, él [le] declaró.
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
19 And this was John’s testimony when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him, “Who are you?”
19 Y éste es el testimonio de Juan, cuando los Judíos enviaron de Jerusalem sacerdotes y Levitas, que le preguntasen: ¿Tú, quién eres?
19 This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
20 He did not refuse to confess, but openly declared, “I am not the Christ.”
20 Y confesó, y no negó; mas declaró: No soy yo el Cristo.
20 He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
21 “Then who are you?” they inquired. “Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.”
21 Y le preguntaron: ¿Qué pues? ¿Eres tú Elías? Dijo: No soy. ¿Eres tú el profeta? Y respondió: No.
21 They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
22 So they said to him, “Who are you? We need an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
22 Dijéronle: ¿Pues quién eres? para que demos respuesta á los que nos enviaron. ¿Qué dices de ti mismo?
22 They said therefore to him, “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 a voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’”
23 Dijo: Yo soy la voz del que clama en el desierto: Enderezad el camino del Señor, como dijo Isaías profeta.
23 He said, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”
24 Then those whom the Pharisees had sent
24 Y los que habían sido enviados eran de los Fariseos.
24 The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
25 asked him, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”
25 Y preguntáronle, y dijéronle: ¿Por qué pues bautizas, si tú no eres el Cristo, ni Elías, ni el profeta?
25 They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
26 “I baptize with water,” John replied, “but among you stands One you do not know.
26 Y Juan les respondió, diciendo: Yo bautizo con agua; mas en medio de vosotros ha estado á quien vosotros no conocéis.
26 John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
27 He is the One who comes after me, who is preferred before me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”
27 Este es el que ha de venir tras mí, el cual es antes de mí: del cual yo no soy digno de desatar la correa del zapato.
27 He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
28 All this happened at Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
28 Estas cosas acontecieron en Betábara, de la otra parte del Jordán, donde Juan bautizaba.
28 These things were done in Bethany beyond 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!
29 El siguiente día ve Juan á Jesús que venía á él, y dice: He aquí el Cordero de Dios, que quita el pecado del mundo.
29 The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
30 This is He of whom I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’
30 Este es del que dije: Tras mí viene un varón, el cual es antes de mí: porque era primero que yo.
30 This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for 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.”
31 Y yo no le conocía; más para que fuese manifestado á Israel, por eso vine yo bautizando con agua.
31 I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
32 Then John testified, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and resting on Him.
32 Y Juan dió testimonio, diciendo: Vi al Espíritu que descendía del cielo como paloma, y reposó sobre él.
32 John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
33 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 descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
33 Y yo no le conocía; mas el que me envió á bautizar con agua, aquél me dijo: Sobre quien vieres descender el Espíritu, y que reposa sobre él, éste es el que bautiza con Espíritu Santo.
33 I didn’t recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water said to me, ‘On whomever you will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.’
34 I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”
34 Y yo [le] vi, y he dado testimonio que éste es el Hijo de Dios.
34 I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
35 The next day John was there again with two of his disciples.
35 El siguiente día otra vez estaba Juan, y dos de sus discípulos.
35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
36 When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
36 Y mirando á Jesús que andaba por [allí], dijo: He aquí el Cordero de Dios.
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
37 And when the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.
37 Y oyéronle los dos discípulos hablar, y siguieron á Jesús.
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”
38 Y volviéndose Jesús, y viéndolos seguir[le], díceles: ¿Qué buscáis? Y ellos le dijeron: Rabbí (que declarado quiere decir Maestro) ¿dónde moras?
38 Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), “where are you staying?”
39 “Come and see,” He replied. So they went and saw where He was staying, and spent that day with Him. It was about the tenth hour.
39 Díceles: Venid y ved. Vinieron, y vieron donde moraba, y quedáronse con él aquel día: porque era como la hora de las diez.
39 He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard John’s testimony and followed Jesus.
40 Era Andrés, hermano de Simón Pedro, uno de los dos que habían oído de Juan, y le habían seguido.
40 One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
41 He first found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated as Christ).
41 Este halló primero á su hermano Simón, y díjole: Hemos hallado al Mesías (que declarado es, el Cristo).
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
42 Andrew brought him to Jesus, who looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of Jonah. You will be called Cephas” (which is translated as Peter).
42 Y le trajo á Jesús. Y mirándole Jesús, dijo: Tú eres Simón, hijo de Jonás: tú serás llamado Cephas (que quiere decir, Piedra).
42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).
43 The next day Jesus decided to set out for Galilee. Finding Philip, He told him, “Follow Me.”
43 El siguiente día quiso Jesús ir á Galilea, y halla á Felipe, al cual dijo: Sígueme.
43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.
44 Y era Felipe de Bethsaida, la ciudad de Andrés y de Pedro.
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, the One the prophets foretold—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
45 Felipe halló á Natanael, y dícele: Hemos hallado á aquel de quien escribió Moisés en la ley, y los profetas: á Jesús, el hijo de José, de Nazaret.
45 Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
46 “Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip.
46 Y díjole Natanael: ¿De Nazaret puede haber algo de bueno? Dícele Felipe: Ven y ve.
46 Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, He said of him, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit.”
47 Jesús vió venir á sí á Natanael, y dijo de él: He aquí un verdadero Israelita, en el cual no hay engaño.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
48 “How do You know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, “Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.”
48 Dícele Natanael: ¿De dónde me conoces? Respondió Jesús, y díjole: Antes que Felipe te llamara, cuando estabas debajo de la higuera te vi.
48 Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
49 “Rabbi,” Nathanael answered, “You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”
49 Respondió Natanael, y díjole: Rabbí, tú eres el Hijo de Dios; tú eres el Rey de Israel.
49 Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
50 Jesus said to him, “Do you believe just because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree’? You will see greater things than these.”
50 Respondió Jesús y díjole: ¿Porque te dije, te vi debajo de la higuera, crees? cosas mayores que éstas verás.
50 Jesus answered him, “Because I told you, ‘I saw you underneath the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these!”
51 Then He declared, “Truly, truly, I tell you, from now on you will all see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
51 Y dícele: De cierto, de cierto os digo: De aquí adelante veréis el cielo abierto, y los ángeles de Dios que suben y descienden sobre el Hijo del hombre.
51 He said to him, “Most certainly, I tell you all, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”

¿Por qué mi Biblia dice algo distinto?
- Juan 1:18: ¿«el unigénito Hijo» o «el unigénito Dios»?
El Texto Patriarcal, la Reina-Valera y la mayoría de los manuscritos dicen «el unigénito Hijo, que está en el seno del Padre». Los papiros más antiguos y los grandes códices dicen «el unigénito Dios». Ambas lecturas vienen de los primeros siglos, y ambas confiesan al mismo Cristo. Ninguna de ellas favorece una visión inferior del Hijo.
Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
The section of the Gospel which has been read, most dearly beloved brethren, looketh for the pure eye of the heart. For from John's Gospel we have understood our Lord Jesus Christ according to His Divinity for the creating of the whole creation, and according to His Humanity for the recovery of the creature fallen.

It is fitting, brethren, that as far as possible we should treat of the text of Holy Scripture, and especially of the Holy Gospel, without omitting any portion, that both we ourselves may derive nourishment according to our capacity, and may minister to you from that source from which we have been nourished.

Were John about to converse with us, and to say to us words of his own, we needs must describe his family, his country, and his education. But since it is not he, but God by him, that speaks to mankind, it seems to me superfluous and distracting to enquire into these matters.

And he expresses himself thus: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God; the same was in the beginning with God." Having first of all distinguished these three--God, the Beginning, and the Word --he again unites them, that he may exhibit the production of each of them, that is, of the …
