In the beginning was the Word – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God;

²this 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.}

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

⁵and 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,}

⁷this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;

⁸that one was not the Light, but — that he might testify about the Light.

^{9 He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world;}

¹⁰in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him:

¹¹to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him;

^{12 but as many as did receive him to them he gave authority to become sons of God — to those believing in his name,}

^{13 who — not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but — of God were begotten.}

¹⁴And the Word became flesh, and did tabernacle among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an only begotten of a father, full of grace and truth.

¹⁵John doth testify concerning him, and hath cried, saying, `This was he of whom I said, He who after me is coming, hath come before me, for he was before me;’

¹⁶and out of his fulness did we all receive, and grace over-against grace;

^{17 for the law through Moses was given, the grace and the truth through Jesus Christ did come;}

^{18 God no one hath ever seen; the only begotten Son, who is on the bosom of the Father — he did declare.}

¹⁹And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent out of Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they might question him, `Who art thou?’

²⁰and he confessed and did not deny, and confessed — `I am not the Christ.’

²¹And they questioned him, `What then? Elijah art thou?’ and he saith, `I am not.’ — `The prophet art thou?’ and he answered, `No.’

²²They said then to him, `Who art thou, that we may give an answer to those sending us? what dost thou say concerning thyself?’

²³He said, `I [am] a voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, as said Isaiah the prophet.’

²⁴And those sent were of the Pharisees,

²⁵and they questioned him and said to him, `Why, then, dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?’

²⁶John answered them, saying, `I baptize with water, but in midst of you he hath stood whom ye have not known, this one it is who is coming after me, who hath been before me,

²⁷of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the cord of his sandal.’

²⁸These things came to pass in Bethabara, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing,

²⁹on the morrow John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, `Lo, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world;

^{30 this is he concerning whom I said, After me doth come a man, who hath come before me, because he was before me:}

³¹and I knew him not, but, that he might be manifested to Israel, because of this I came with the water baptizing.

^{32 And John testified, saying — `I have seen the Spirit coming down, as a dove, out of heaven, and it remained on him;}

^{33 and I did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, On whomsoever thou mayst see the Spirit coming down, and remaining on him, this is he who is baptizing with the Holy Spirit;}

³⁴and I have seen, and have testified, that this is the Son of God.’

³⁵On the morrow, again, John was standing, and two of his disciples,

³⁶and having looked on Jesus walking, he saith, `Lo, the Lamb of God;’

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

³⁸And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, saith to them, `What seek ye?’ and they said to them, `Rabbi, (which is, being interpreted, Teacher,) where remainest thou?’

³⁹He saith to them, `Come and see;’ they came, and saw where he doth remain, and with him they remained that day and the hour was about the tenth.

⁴⁰Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard from John, and followed him;

⁴¹this one doth first find his own brother Simon, and saith to him, `We have found the Messiah,’ (which is, being interpreted, The Anointed,)

^{42 and he brought him unto Jesus: and having looked upon him, Jesus saith, `Thou art Simon, the son of Jonas, thou shalt be called Cephas,’ (which is interpreted, A rock.)}

⁴³On the morrow, he willed to go forth to Galilee, and he findeth Philip, and saith to him, `Be following me.’

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

⁴⁵Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, `Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and the prophets, we have found, Jesus the son of Joseph, who [is] from Nazareth;’

⁴⁶and Nathanael said to him, `Out of Nazareth is any good thing able to be?’ Philip said to him, `Come and see.’

⁴⁷Jesus saw Nathanael coming unto him, and he saith concerning him, `Lo, truly an Israelite, in whom guile is not;’

⁴⁸Nathanael saith to him, `Whence me dost thou know?’ Jesus answered and said to him, `Before Philip’s calling thee — thou being under the fig-tree — I saw thee.’

⁴⁹Nathanael answered and saith to him, `Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.’

⁵⁰Jesus answered and said to him, `Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, thou dost believe; greater things than these thou shalt see;’

^{51 and he saith to him, `Verily, verily, I say to you, henceforth ye shall see the heaven opened, and the messengers of God going up and coming down upon the Son of Man.’ – Aslan International Ministry}

When there ariseth in your midst a prophet, or a dreamer of a dream – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – `When there ariseth in your midst a prophet, or a dreamer of a dream, and he hath given unto thee a sign or wonder,

²and the sign and the wonder hath come which he hath spoken of unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods (which thou hast not known), and serve them,

^{3 thou dost not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of the dream, for Jehovah your God is trying you, to know whether ye are loving Jehovah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul;}

⁴after Jehovah your God ye walk, and Him ye fear, and His commands ye keep, and to His voice ye hearken, and Him ye serve, and to Him ye cleave.

^{5 `And that prophet, or that dreamer of the dream, is put to death, for he hath spoken apostacy against Jehovah your God (who is bringing you out of the land of Egypt, and hath ransomed you out of a house of servants), to drive you out of the way in which Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee to walk, and thou hast put away the evil thing from thy midst.}

^{6 `When thy brother — son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend who [is] as thine own soul — doth move thee, in secret, saying, Let us go and serve other gods — (which thou hast not known, thou and thy fathers,}

⁷of the gods of the peoples who [are] round about you, who are near unto thee, or who are far off from thee, from the end of the earth even unto the end of the earth) —

^{8 thou dost not consent to him, nor hearken unto him, nor doth thine eye have pity on him, nor dost thou spare, nor dost thou cover him over.}

^{9 `But thou dost surely kill him; thy hand is on him, in the first place, to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last;}

^{10 and thou hast stoned him with stones, and he hath died, for he hath sought to drive thee away from Jehovah thy God, who is bringing thee out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants;}

¹¹and all Israel do hear and fear, and add not to do like this evil thing in thy midst.

^{12 `When thou hearest, in one of thy cities which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to dwell there, [one] saying,}

¹³Men, sons of worthlessness, have gone out of thy midst, and they force away the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known —

¹⁴and thou hast enquired, and searched, and asked diligently, and lo, truth; the thing is established; this abomination hath been done in thy midst:

¹⁵`Thou dost surely smite the inhabitants of that city by the mouth of the sword; devoting it, and all that [is] in it, even its cattle, by the mouth of the sword;

^{16 and all its spoil thou dost gather unto the midst of its broad place, and hast burned with fire the city and all its spoil completely, before Jehovah thy God, and it hath been a heap age-during, it is not built any more;}

¹⁷and there doth not cleave to thy hand any of the devoted thing, so that Jehovah doth turn back from the fierceness of His anger, and hath given to thee mercies, and loved thee, and multiplied thee, as He hath sworn to thy fathers,

^{18 when thou dost hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep all his commands which I am commanding thee to-day, to do that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah thy God. – Aslan International Ministry}

I am the true vine – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 15 `I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman;

^{2 every branch in me not bearing fruit, He doth take it away, and every one bearing fruit, He doth cleanse by pruning it, that it may bear more fruit;}

^{3 already ye are clean, because of the word that I have spoken to you;}

^{4 remain in me, and I in you, as the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself, if it may not remain in the vine, so neither ye, if ye may not remain in me.}

^{5 `I am the vine, ye the branches; he who is remaining in me, and I in him, this one doth bear much fruit, because apart from me ye are not able to do anything;}

^{6 if any one may not remain in me, he was cast forth without as the branch, and was withered, and they gather them, and cast to fire, and they are burned;}

^{7 if ye may remain in me, and my sayings in you may remain, whatever ye may wish ye shall ask, and it shall be done to you.}

^{8 `In this was my Father glorified, that ye may bear much fruit, and ye shall become my disciples.}

^{9 According as the Father did love me, I also loved you, remain in my love;}

^{10 if my commandments ye may keep, ye shall remain in my love, according as I the commands of my Father have kept, and do remain in His love;}

^{11 these things I have spoken to you, that my joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.}

^{12 `This is my command, that ye love one another, according as I did love you;}

^{13 greater love than this hath no one, that any one his life may lay down for his friends;}

¹⁴ye are my friends, if ye may do whatever I command you;

^{15 no more do I call you servants, because the servant hath not known what his lord doth, and you I have called friends, because all things that I heard from my Father, I did make known to you.}

^{16 `Ye did not choose out me, but I chose out you, and did appoint you, that ye might go away, and might bear fruit, and your fruit might remain, that whatever ye may ask of the Father in my name, He may give you.}

^{17 `These things I command you, that ye love one another;}

^{18 if the world doth hate you, ye know that it hath hated me before you;}

^{19 if of the world ye were, the world its own would have been loving, and because of the world ye are not — but I chose out of the world — because of this the world hateth you.}

^{20 `Remember the word that I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord; if me they did persecute, you also they will persecute; if my word they did keep, yours also they will keep;}

^{21 but all these things will they do to you, because of my name, because they have not known Him who sent me;}

^{22 if I had not come and spoken to them, they were not having sin; but now pretext they have not for their sin.}

²³`He who is hating me, doth hate also my Father;

^{24 if I did not do among them the works that no other hath done, they were not having sin, and now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father;}

^{25 but — that the word may be fulfilled that was written in their law — They hated me without a cause.}

^{26 `And when the Comforter may come, whom I will send to you from the Father — the Spirit of truth, who from the Father doth come forth, he will testify of me;}

^{27 and ye also do testify, because from the beginning ye are with me. – Aslan International Ministry}

These things I have spoken to you – ASLAN International Ministry

Aslan International Ministry – 16 `These things I have spoken to you, that ye may not be stumbled,

²out of the synagogues they will put you; but an hour doth come, that every one who hath killed you, may think to offer service unto God;

³and these things they will do to you, because they did not know the Father, nor me.

⁴`But these things I have spoken to you, that when the hour may come, ye may remember them, that I said [them] to you, and these things to you from the beginning I did not say, because I was with you;

^{5 and now I go away to Him who sent me, and none of you doth ask me, Whither dost thou go?}

^{6 but because these things I have said to you, the sorrow hath filled your heart.}

⁷`But I tell you the truth; it is better for you that I go away, for if I may not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you, and if I go on, I will send Him unto you;

⁸and having come, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment;

⁹concerning sin indeed, because they do not believe in me;

¹⁰and concerning righteousness, because unto my Father I go away, and no more do ye behold me;

¹¹and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world hath been judged.

^{12 `I have yet many things to say to you, but ye are not able to bear [them] now;}

^{13 and when He may come — the Spirit of truth — He will guide you to all the truth, for He will not speak from Himself, but as many things as He will hear He will speak, and the coming things He will tell you;}

¹⁴He will glorify me, because of mine He will take, and will tell to you.

^{15 `All things, as many as the Father hath, are mine; because of this I said, That of mine He will take, and will tell to you;}

¹⁶a little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go away unto the Father.’

¹⁷Therefore said [some] of his disciples one to another, `What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me, and, Because I go away unto the Father?’

¹⁸they said then, `What is this he saith — the little while? we have not known what he saith.’

¹⁹Jesus, therefore, knew that they were wishing to ask him, and he said to them, `Concerning this do ye seek one with another, because I said, A little while, and you do not behold me, and again a little while, and ye shall see me?

²⁰verily, verily, I say to you, that ye shall weep and lament, and the world will rejoice; and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow joy will become.

²¹`The woman, when she may bear, hath sorrow, because her hour did come, and when she may bear the child, no more doth she remember the anguish, because of the joy that a man was born to the world.

²²`And ye, therefore, now, indeed, have sorrow; and again I will see you, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one doth take from you,

²³and in that day ye will question me nothing; verily, verily, I say to you, as many things as ye may ask of the Father in my name, He will give you;

²⁴till now ye did ask nothing in my name; ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

²⁵`These things in similitudes I have spoken to you, but there cometh an hour when no more in similitudes will I speak to you, but freely of the Father, will tell you.

^{26 `In that day, in my name ye will make request, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father for you,}

²⁷for the Father himself doth love you, because me ye have loved, and ye have believed that I from God came forth;

²⁸I came forth from the Father, and have come to the world; again I leave the world, and go on unto the Father.’

^{29 His disciples say to him, `Lo, now freely thou dost speak, and no similitude speakest thou;}

³⁰now we have known that thou hast known all things, and hast no need that any one do question thee; in this we believe that from God thou didst come forth.’

³¹Jesus answered them, `Now do ye believe? lo, there doth come an hour,

³²and now it hath come, that ye may be scattered, each to his own things, and me ye may leave alone, and I am not alone, because the Father is with me;

^{33 these things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace, in the world ye shall have tribulation, but take courage — I have overcome the world.’ – Aslan International Ministry}

For they gave according to their means, as I can testify, and beyond their means, of their own accord, begging us earnestly for the favor of taking part in the relief of the saints— and this, not as we expected, but they gave themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us. …
