1 — Giovanni

1In the beginning was the Word: and the Word was with God: and the Word was God.Nel principio era il Verbo, e il Verbo era appresso Dio, e il Verbo era Dio.IN THE beginning vvas the WORD, and the WORD vvas vvith God, and God vvas the WORD.In principio erat Verbum, / et Verbum erat apud Deum, / et Deus erat Verbum. 2The same was in the beginning with God.Questo era nel principio appresso Dio.This vvas in the beginning vvith God.Hoc erat in principio apud Deum. 3All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made.Per mezzo di lui furon fatte le cose tutte: e senza di lui nulla fu fatto di ciò, che è stato fatto.Al things vvere made by him: and vvithout him vvas made nothing. That vvhich vvas made',Omnia per ipsum facta sunt: / et sine ipso factum est nihil, quod factum est. 4In him was life: and the life was the light of men.In lui era la vita, e la vita era la luce degli uomini:in him vvas life, and the life vvas the light of men:In ipso vita erat, / et vita erat lux hominum: 5And the light shineth in darkness: and the darkness did not comprehend it.E la luce splende tra le tenebre, e le tenebre non la hanno ammessa.and the light shineth in darkenesse, and the darkenesse did not comprehend it.et lux in tenebris lucet, / et tenebræ eam non comprehenderunt. 6There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.Vi fu un uomo mandato da Dio, che chiamavasi Giovanni.There vvas a man sent from God, vvhose name vvas Iohn.Fuit homo / missus a Deo, / cui nomen erat Joannes. 7This man came for a witness, to give testimony of the light, that all men might believe through him.Questi venne qual testimone, affin di render testimonianza alla luce, onde per mezzo di lui tutti credessero:This man came for testimonie: to giue testimonie of the light, that al might beleeue through him.Hic venit in testimonium / ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine, / ut omnes crederent per illum. 8He was not the light, but was to give testimony of the light.Ei non era la luce; ma era per rendere testimonianza alla luce.He vvas not the light, but to giue testimonie of the light.Non erat ille lux, / sed ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine. 9That was the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world.Quegli era la luce vera, che illumina ogni uomo, che viene in questo mondo.It vvas the true light, vvhich lighteneth euery man that commeth into this vvorld.Erat lux vera, / quæ illuminat omnem hominem / venientem in hunc mundum. 10He was in the world: and the world was made by him: and the world knew him not.Egli era nel mondo, e il mondo per lui fu fatto, e il mondo nol conobbe.He vvas in the vvorld, and the vvorld vvas made by him, and the vvorld knevv him not.In mundo erat, / et mundus per ipsum factus est, / et mundus eum non cognovit.

11He came unto his own: and his own received him not.Venne nella sua propria casa, e i suoi nol ricevettero.He came into his ovvne, and his ovvne receiued him not.In propria venit, / et sui eum non receperunt. 12But as many as received him, he gave them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in his name.Ma a tutti que', che lo ricevettero, die' potere di diventar figliuoli di Dio, a quelli che credono nel suo nome:But as many as receiued him, he gaue them povver to be made the sonnes of God, to those that beleeue in his name.Quotquot autem receperunt eum, / dedit eis potestatem filios Dei fieri, / his qui credunt in nomine ejus: 13Who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.I quali non per via di sangue, nè per volontà della carne, nè per volontà d'uomo, ma da Dio sono nati.Vvho, not of bloud, not of the vvil of flesh, nor of the vvil of man, but of God are borne.qui non ex sanguinibus, / neque ex voluntate carnis, / neque ex voluntate viri, / sed ex Deo nati sunt. 14And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth.E il Verbo si è fatto carne, e abitò tra noi: e abbiamo veduto la sua gloria, gloria come dell'Unigenito del Padre, pieno di grazia, e di verità,AND THE VVORD VVAS MADE FLESH, and dvvelt in vs (and vve savv the glorie of him, glorie as it vvere of the only-begotten of the Father) ful of grace and veritie.Et Verbum caro factum est, / et habitavit in nobis: / et vidimus gloriam ejus, / gloriam quasi unigeniti a Patre / plenum gratiæ et veritatis. 15John beareth witness of him and crieth out, saying: This was he of whom I spoke: He that shall come after me is preferred before me: because he was before me.Giovanni rende testimonianza di lui, e grida, dicendo: Questi è colui, del quale io diceva: Quegli, che verrà dopo di me, è da più di me; perchè era prima di me.Iohn giueth testimonie of him, and crieth saying, This vvas he of vvhom I spake, He that shal come after me, is made before me: because he vvas before me.Joannes testimonium perhibet de ipso, / et clamat dicens: / Hic erat quem dixi: / Qui post me venturus est, / ante me factus est: / quia prior me erat. 16And of his fulness we all have received: and grace for grace.E della pienezza di lui noi tutti abbiam ricevuto, e una grazia in cambio di un'altra:And of his fulnes al vve haue receiued, and grace for grace.Et de plenitudine ejus / nos omnes accepimus, et gratiam pro gratia: 17For the law was given by Moses: grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.Perché da Mosè fu data la legge: la grazia, e la venuta per Gesù Cristo fu fatta.For the lavv vvas giuen by Moyses, grace and veritie vvas made by IESVS Christ.quia lex per Moysen data est, / gratia et veritas per Jesum Christum facta est.

18No man hath seen God at any time: the only begotten Son who is in the Bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.Nissuno ha mai veduto Dio: l'unigenito Figliuolo, che è nel seno del Padre, egli ce lo ha rivelato.God no man hath seen at any time: the only begotten Sonne vvhich is in the bosome of the father, he hath declared.Deum nemo vidit umquam: / unigenitus Filius, qui est in sinu Patris, / ipse enarravit. 19And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites to him, to ask him: Who art thou?Ed ecco la testimonianza, che rendè Giovanni, quando i Giudei mandarono da Gerusalemme i sacerdoti, e i Leviti a lui per dimandargli: Chi se' tu?And this is Iohns testimonie, vvhen the Ievves sent from Hierusalem Priests and Leuites to him, that they should aske him, Vvho art thou?Et hoc est testimonium Joannis, quando miserunt Judæi ab Jerosolymis sacerdotes et Levitas ad eum ut interrogarent eum: Tu quis es ? 20And he confessed and did not deny: and he confessed: I am not the Christ.Ed ei confessò, e non negò: e confessò: Non son io il Cristo.And he confessed, and did not denie: and he confessed, That I am not CHRIST.Et confessus est, et non negavit, et confessus est: Quia non sum ego Christus. 21And they asked him: What then? Art thou Elias? And he said: I am not. Art thou the prophet? And he answered: No.Ed essi gli dimandarono: E che adunque? Se' tu Elia? Ed ei rispose: Nol sono. Se' tu il profeta? Ed, ei rispose: No.And they asked him, Vvhat then? Art thou Elias? And he said, I am not. Art thou the Prophet? And he ansvvered, No.Et interrogaverunt eum: Quid ergo ? Elias es tu ? Et dixit: Non sum. Propheta es tu ? Et respondit: Non. 22They said therefore unto him: Who art thou, that we may give an answer to them that sent us? What sayest thou of thyself?Gli disser pertanto: Chi se' tu, affinchè possiam render risposta a chi ci ha mandato? Che dici di te stesso?They said therefore vnto him, Vvho art thou, that vve may giue an ansvver to them that sent vs? vvhat saiest thou of thy self?Dixerunt ergo ei: Quis es ut responsum demus his qui miserunt nos ? quid dicis de teipso ? 23He said: I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaias.Io son, disse, la voce di colui, che grida nel deserto: Raddirizzate la via del Signore, come ha detto il profeta Isaia.He said, I am the voyce of one crying in the desert, make straight the vvay of our Lord, as Esaie the Prophet said.Ait: Ego vox clamantis in deserto: Dirigite viam Domini, sicut dixit Isaias propheta.

24And they that were sent were of the Pharisees.E questi messi erano della setta de' Farisei.And they that vvere sent, vvere of the Pharisees.Et qui missi fuerant, erant ex pharisæis. 25And they asked him and said to him: Why then dost thou baptize, if thou be not Christ, nor Elias, nor the prophet?E lo interrogarono, dicendogli: Come adunque battezzi tu, se non sei il Cristo, né Elia, né il profeta?And they asked him, and said to him, Vvhy then doest thou baptize, if thou be not Christ, nor Elias, nor the Prophet?Et interrogaverunt eum, et dixerunt ei: Quid ergo baptizas, si tu non es Christus, neque Elias, neque propheta ? 26John answered them, saying: I baptize with water: but there hath stood one in the midst of you, whom you know not.Giovanni rispose loro, e disse: Io battezzo nell'acqua: ma v'ha in mezzo a voi uno, che voi non conoscete:Iohn ansvvered them, saying, I baptize in vvater: but there hath stood in the middes of you vvhom you knovv not.Respondit eis Joannes, dicens: Ego baptizo in aqua: medius autem vestrum stetit, quem vos nescitis. 27The same is he that shall come after me, who is preferred before me: the latchet of whose shoe I am not worthy to loose.Questi è quegli, che verrà dopo di me, il quale è da più di me: a cui io non son degno di sciogliere i legaccioli delle scarpe.The same is he that shal come after me, that is made before me: vvhose latcher of his shoe I am not worthie to vnloose.Ipse est qui post me venturus est, qui ante me factus est: cujus ego non sum dignus ut solvam ejus corrigiam calceamenti. 28These things were done in Bethania, beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.Queste cose successero a Betania di là dal Giordano, dove Giovanni stava battezzando.These things were done in Bethania beyond Iordan, vvhere Iohn vvas baptizing.Hæc in Bethania facta sunt trans Jordanem, ubi erat Joannes baptizans. 29The next day, John saw Jesus coming to him; and he saith: Behold the Lamb of God. Behold him who taketh away the sin of the world.Il giorno dopo Giovanni vide Gesù, che venivagli incontro, e disse: Ecco l'Agnello di Dio, ecco colui, che toglie i peccati del mondo.The next day Iohn savv IESVS cōming to him, and he saith, Behold the lambe of God, behold him that taketh avvay the sinne' of the vvorld.Altera die vidit Joannes Jesum venientem ad se, et ait: Ecce agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccatum mundi. 30This is he of whom I said: After me there cometh a man, who is preferred before me: because he was before me.Questi è colui, del quale ho detto: Dopo di me viene uno, che è da più di me: perché era prima di me:This is he of vvhom I said, After me there commeth a man, vvhich is made before me: because he vvas before me.Hic est de quo dixi: Post me venit vir qui ante me factus est: quia prior me erat:

31And I knew him not: but that he may be made manifest in Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.E io nel conosceva; ma affinchè egli fosse riconosciuto in Israele, per questo son io venuto a battezzare nell'acqua.And I knevv him not, but that he may be manifested in Israel, therefore came I baptizing in vvater.et ego nesciebam eum, sed ut manifestetur in Israël, propterea veni ego in aqua baptizans. 32And John gave testimony, saying: I saw the Spirit coming down, as a dove from heaven; and he remained upon him.E Giovanni rendette testimonianza, dicendo: Ho veduto lo Spirito scendere dal cielo in forma di colomba, e si fermò sopra di lui.And Iohn gaue testimonie, saying, That I savv the Spirit descending as a doue from heauen, and he remained vpon him.Et testimonium perhibuit Joannes, dicens: Quia vidi Spiritum descendentem quasi columbam de cælo, et mansit super eum. 33And I knew him not: but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me: He upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and remaining upon him, he it is that baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.E io nei conosceva: ma chi mandommi a battezzare nell'acqua, mi disse: Colui, sopra del quale vedrai discendere, e fermarsi lo Spirito, quegli è colui, che battezza nello Spirito santo.And I knevv him not: but he that sent me to baptize in vvater, he said to me, He vpō vvhom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and remaining vpon him, he it is that baptizeth in the holy Ghost.Et ego nesciebam eum: sed qui misit me baptizare in aqua, ille mihi dixit: Super quem videris Spiritum descendentem, et manentem super eum, hic est qui baptizat in Spiritu Sancto. 34And I saw: and I gave testimony that this is the Son of God.E io ho veduto: t'ho attestato, com'egli è il Figliuolo di Dio.And I savv: and I gaue testimonie that this is the sonne of God.Et ego vidi: et testimonium perhibui quia hic est Filius Dei. 35The next day again John stood and two of his disciples.Il dì seguente di nuovo trovandosi Giovanni con due de' suoi discepoli,The next day againe Iohn stoode, and tvvo of his disciples.Altera die iterum stabat Joannes, et ex discipulis ejus duo. 36And beholding Jesus walking, he saith: Behold the Lamb of God.E mirando Gesù, che passeggiava, disse: Ecco l'Agnello di Dio.And beholding IESVS vvalking, he saith, Behold the lambe of God.Et respiciens Jesum ambulantem, dicit: Ecce agnus Dei. 37And the two disciples heard him speak: and they followed Jesus.E udiron le sue parole i due discepoli, e seguitarmi Gesù.And the tvvo Disciples heard him speaking, and they folovved IESVS.Et audierunt eum duo discipuli loquentem, et secuti sunt Jesum. 38And Jesus turning and seeing them following him, saith to them: What seek you? Who said to him: Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted, Master), where dwellest thou?E rivoltosi Gesù, e vedutili, che lo seguivano, disse loro: che cercate voi? Ed essi gli risposero: Rabbi (che vuol dir maestro), dov'è la tua abitazione?And IESVS turning, and seeing them folovving him, saith to them, Vvhat seeke you? Vvho said to him, Rabbi (vvhich is called by interpretation, Maister) vvhere dvvellest thou?Conversus autem Jesus, et videns eos sequentes se, dicit eis: Quid quæritis ? Qui dixerunt ei: Rabbi (quod dicitur interpretatum Magister), ubi habitas ?

39He saith to them: Come and see. They came and saw where he abode: and they stayed with him that day. Now it was about the tenth hour.Rispose loro: Venite, e vedete. Andarono, e videro, dove egli stava, e si stetter con lui per quel giorno: era allora circa la decima ora.He saith to them, Come and see. They came, and savv where he abode and they taried vvith him that day: and it vvas about the tenth houre.Dicit eis: Venite et videte. Venerunt, et viderunt ubi maneret, et apud eum manserunt die illo: hora autem erat quasi decima. 40And Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who had heard of John and followed him.Andrea fratello di Simon Pietro era uno dei due, che avevan udito le parole di Giovanni, ed avean seguitato Gesù.And Andrevv the brother of Simon Peter vvas one of the tvvo that had heard of Iohn, and folovved him.Erat autem Andreas, frater Simonis Petri, unus ex duobus qui audierant a Joanne, et secuti fuerant eum. 41He findeth first his brother Simon and saith to him: We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.Il primo, in cui questi s'imbattè, fu il suo fratello Simone, e dissegli: Abbiano trovato il Messia (che vuol dire il Cristo).He findeth first his brother Simon, and saith to him, Vve haue found MESSIAS, vvhich is being interpreted, CHRIST.Invenit hic primum fratrem suum Simonem, et dicit ei: Invenimus Messiam (quod est interpretatum Christus). 42And he brought him to Jesus. And Jesus looking upon him, said: Thou art Simon the son of Jona. Thou shalt be called Cephas, which is interpreted Peter.E lo condusse da Gesù. E Gesù fissato in lui lo sguardo, gli disse: Tu sei Simone, figliuolo di Giona: tu sarai chiamato Cepha (che si interpreta Pietra).And he brought him to IESVS. And IESVS looking vpon him, said, Thou art Simon the sonne of Iona: thou shalt be called Cephas, vvhich is interpreted, Peter.Et adduxit eum ad Jesum. Intuitus autem eum Jesus, dixit: Tu es Simon, filius Jona; tu vocaberis Cephas, quod interpretatur Petrus. 43On the following day, he would go forth into Galilee: and he findeth Philip, And Jesus saith to him: follow me.Il dì seguente Gesù volle andare nella Galilea, e trovò Filippo, e gli disse: Seguimi.On the morovv he vvould goe forth into Galilee, and he findeth Philippe. And IESVS saith to him, Folovv me.In crastinam voluit exire in Galilæam, et invenit Philippum. Et dicit ei Jesus: Sequere me. 44Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.Filippo era di Betsaida, patria di Andrea, e di Pietro.And Philippe vvas of Bethsaida, the citie of Andrevv and Peter.Erat autem Philippus a Bethsaida, civitate Andreæ et Petri.

45Philip findeth Nathanael and saith to him: We have found him of whom Moses, in the law and the prophets did write, Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth.Filippo trovò Natanaele, e gli disse: Abbiam trovato quello, di cui scrisse Mosè nella legge, e i profeti, Gesù di Nazareth figliuolo di Giuseppe.Philippe findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, Him vvhom Moyses in the lavv, and the Prophets vvrote of: vve haue found IESVS the sonne of Ioseph, of Nazareth.Invenit Philippus Nathanaël, et dicit ei: Quem scripsit Moyses in lege, et prophetæ, invenimus Jesum filium Joseph a Nazareth. 46And Nathanael said to him: Can any thing of good come from Nazareth? Philip saith to him: Come and see.Natanaele gli rispose: Può egli mai uscir cosa buona da Nazareth? Filippo gli disse: Vieni, e vedi.And Nathanael said to him, From Nazareth can there be any good? Philippe saith to him, Come and see.Et dixit ei Nathanaël: A Nazareth potest aliquid boni esse ? Dicit ei Philippus: Veni et vide. 47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him and he saith of him: Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile.Vide Gesù Natanaele, il quale veniva a trovarlo, e disse di lui: Ecco un vero Israelita, in cui non è froda.IESVS savv Nathanael comming to him, and he saith of him, Behold an Israelite in very deede, in vvhom there is no guile.Vidit Jesus Nathanaël venientem ad se, et dicit de eo: Ecce vere Israëlita, in quo dolus non est. 48Nathanael saith to him: Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him: Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.Natanaele gli disse: Come mai mi conosci tu? Gesù gli rispose: Prima che Filippo ti chiamasse, io ti vidi, quando eri sotto il fico.Nathanael saith to him, Hovv knovvest thou me? IESVS ansvvered and said to him, Before that Philippe did cal thee, vvhen thou wast vnder the figtree, I saw thee.Dicit ei Nathanaël: Unde me nosti ? Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Priusquam te Philippus vocavit, cum esses sub ficu, vidi te. 49Nathanael answered him and said: Rabbi: Thou art the Son of God. Thou art the King of Israel.Natanaele rispose, e dissegli: Maestro, tu sei Figliuolo di Dio, tu sei il Re d'Israele.Nathanael ansvvered him, and saith, Rabbi, thou art the sonne of God, thou art the king of Israel.Respondit ei Nathanaël, et ait: Rabbi, tu es Filius Dei, tu es rex Israël. 50Jesus answered and said to him: Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, thou believest: greater things than these shalt thou see.Gesù gli rispose, e disse: Perché ti ho detto, che ti ho veduto sotto il fico, tu credi: vedrai cose maggiori di questa.IESVS ansvvered, and said to him, Because I said vnto thee, I savv thee vnder the figtree, thou beleeuest: greater then these things shalt thou see.Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Quia dixi tibi: Vidi te sub ficu, credis; majus his videbis.

51And he saith to him: Amen, amen, I say to you, you shall see the heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.E dissegli: In verità, in verità io vi dico, vedrete aperto il cielo, e gli Angeli di Dio andare, e venire il figliuolo dell'uomo.And he saith to him, Amen Amen I say to you, You shal see the heauen opened, and the Angels of God ascending and defcending, vpon the Sonne of man.Et dicit ei: Amen, amen dico vobis, videbitis cælum apertum, et angelos Dei ascendentes, et descendentes supra Filium hominis.
