Literal (Young’s Literal Translation)

all things through him did happen, and without him happened not even one thing that hath happened.

Translation Note

The SBL Greek text on this page ends the verse with ὃ γέγονεν, “that which has come into being.” The New World Translation (Jehovah’s Witnesses’ Bible) keeps that clause at the end of verse 3 as well. ἐγένετο is a verb, aorist middle indicative, 3rd person singular, from γίνομαι.

The verse says πάντα, “all things,” and οὐδὲ ἕν, “not even one.” It does not contain ἄλλος or ἕτερος, the Greek words for “other.” The King James Version reads “all things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.”

King James Version. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

New World Translation (Jehovah’s Witnesses’ Bible), this verse. “All things came into existence through him, and apart from him not even one thing came into existence. What has come into existence” Watchtower Online Library
