Mark 1:9-13
Modern American Bible - 1899
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan; and just as he was coming up out of the water he saw the heavens rent asunder and the Spirit like a dove descending on him.
A voice came out of the heavens:
"Thou art my beloved Son.
In thee I am well pleased."
The Spirit at once forced him out into the wilderness. So he was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild beasts, and the angels waited on him.
American Bible - 1902
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was purified by John in the Jordan; and just as he was coming up out of the water he saw the heavens torn apart and the Spirit like a dove descending on him.
A voice came out of the heavens:
"Thou art my beloved Son.
In thee I am well pleased."
The Spirit at once forced him out into the wilderness. So he was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild beasts, and the angels waited on him.
The Bible in Modern English - 1910
And it came to pass in those days that Jesus went from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John into the Jordan. And immediately coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rent asunder, and the Spirit as a dove descending on him; and a voice came out of the heavens:
"Thou art my dear Son,
In thee I delight."
And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness. And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan, and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels waited on him.
John 1:1-5
Modern American Bible - 1901
In the beginning was the Word,
And the Word was with God,
And the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
Everything made its appearance.
Through him,
And without him
Not a thing made its appearance.
What has made its appearance in him was Life,
And the Life was the Light of men.
And the Light keeps shining in the darkness.
And the darkness never became thoroughly permeated by it.
American Bible - 1902
In the beginning was the Word,
And the Word was with God,
And the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
Everything made its appearance.
Through him,
And without him
Not a thing made its appearance.
What has made its appearance in him was Life,
And the Life was the Light of men.
And the Light keeps shining in the darkness,
And the darkness never became thoroughly permeated by it.
The Bible in Modern English - 1910
In the beginning was the Word.
And the Word was with God,
And the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
All things came
Through him;
And apart from him
Came not a thing which has come.
In him was life;
And the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness;
And the darkness has not overcome it.
1 Corinthians 15:1-8
Modern American Bible - 1901
Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the Good News which I brought to you, which, also, you received, on which also you have taken your stand, by means of which also you are being saved, if you hold fast to the teaching with which I brought you the Good News, unless there was no good cause for your believing in it. Among the first things which I delivered to you, which you also received, were these: That Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; that he was buried; that he was raised the third day according to the Scriptures; that he appeared to Cephas; then to the Twelve; then he appeared to more than five hundred of our brothers at once, the most of whom are still alive, but some have fallen asleep; then he appeared to James; then to all the Apostles; and last of all, as to one born at the wrong time, he appeared to me also.

Now I remind you, brothers, of the Good News which I preached to you, which also you received, on which also you have taken your stand, through which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you first of all what also I received: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried; and that he was raised the third day, according to the scriptures; and that he appeared to Cephas; then to the twelve; then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, the majority of whom remain until now, but some have fallen asleep; then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles; and last of all, as to the immaturely born one; he appeared to me also.
