He was in the beginning with God.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth;
then I was at His side, like a master workman; and I was His delights day by day, rejoicing before Him at every time;
And I said, I will not mention Him or speak any more in His name. But His Word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary of holding in, and I was not able.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
All things came into being through Him, and without Him not even one thing came into being that has come into being.
