NASB
"He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light."
— John 1:8, NASB
“He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.”
“He was not the light, but came that he might bear witness of the light. ”
“He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.”
“He himself was not the light, but he came to testify about the light.”
“He was not the light, but was to give testimony of the light.”
“He himself was not the light: he was sent to give witness about the light.”
“He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.”
The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
He came as a witness, to testify about the Light, so that all might believe through him.
He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
There was the true Light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him.
