The Word

I looked up all the Greek translations of the main words in John 1:1-5 and expanded it a little, using the definitions.  I like the last verse the best.  Here is what it looks like: 

  At the beginning of all things was the Word uttered by a living Voice.  And the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 
  He was present with God at the origin of all created things.
  Every thing received being through the Word of God, and apart from Him no thing that existed came into existence.
  In Him was life, and this life manifested itself in men through light. 
  And this light is made evident to the darkness by men, and the darkness did not take it by force, nor understand it, nor extinguish it.
