This man was in the beginning with God.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
then I was by him, a master workman. And I was daily [his] delight, rejoicing always before him,
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
All things came to be through him, and apart from him not even one thing came to be that has come to be.
And if I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I cannot.
