Verbum caro factum est
Et habitavit in nobis
et vidimus gloriam ejus

plenum gratiae et veritatis.

The Word was made flesh
And lived with us
and we saw his glory,
the glory as of the only-begotten by the Father
full of grace and truth.

And 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,

Az Ige testté lett
és miköztünk lakozott
és mi láttuk dicsőségét
mint az Atya egyszülöttjének dicsőségét
telve kegyelemmel és igazsággal.
