John 14
1 Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me.
“Do not let your (pl) heart be distressed; you believe into God and you believe into me.
2 In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.
In my Father's house are many dwellings (otherwise I would have told you). I am going away to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you to myself, so that where I am you may be also.
4 And whither I go, ye know the way.
Now you know where I am going, and you know the way.”
5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way?
Thomas says to Him, “Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jesus says to him: “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one goes to the Father except through me.
7 If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
If you had known me, you would have known my Father as well; from now on you both know Him and have seen Him.”
8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
Philip says to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.”
9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and dost thou not know me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; how sayest thou, Show us the Father?
Jesus says to him: “Such a long time I have been with you, and you have not known me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his works.
Don't you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own; rather it is the Father who dwells in me who does the works.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or else, believe me because of the works themselves.
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto the Father.
“Most assuredly I say to you, the one believing into me, he too will do the works that I do; in fact he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Further, whatever you (pl) may ask in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask anything in my name, that will I do.
If you ask anything in my name, I will do it!
15 If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments.
If you love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever, (aiōn g165)
Also, I will ask the Father and He will give you another Enabler, so that He may stay with you throughout the age (aiōn g165)
17 [even] the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him not, neither knoweth him: ye know him; for he abideth with you, and shall be in you.
—the Spirit of the Truth, whom the world is unable to receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you do know Him, because He is staying with you and will be in you.
18 I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you.
“I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you [shortly].
19 Yet a little while, and the world beholdeth me no more; but ye behold me: because I live, ye shall live also.
In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Because I live you also will live.
20 In that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself unto him.
The one who has my commandments and keeps them, he is the one who loves me. Now the one who loves me will be loved by my Father; and I will love him, and reveal myself to him.”
22 Judas (not Iscariot) saith unto him, Lord, what is come to pass that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
Judas (not the Iscariot) says to Him, “Lord, just how is it that You are going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?”
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Jesus answered and said to him: “If anyone loves me he will keep my word. So my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my words: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
The one who does not love me does not keep my words; further, the word which you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me.
25 These things have I spoken unto you, while [yet] abiding with you.
“I have spoken these things to you while being with you.
26 But the Comforter, [even] the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said unto you.
But the Enabler, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things and remind you of everything I said to you.
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you; it is not like the world gives that I give to you. Do not let your heart be distressed or intimidated.
28 Ye heard how I said to you, I go away, and I come unto you. If ye loved me, ye would have rejoiced, because I go unto the Father: for the Father is greater than I.
“You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me you would have been glad that I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ because my Father is greater than I.
29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe.
I have told you now, before it happens, so that when it does happen you may believe.
30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world cometh: and he hath nothing in me;
“I will no longer talk much with you, because the ruler of the world is approaching; actually, he has nothing in me.
31 but that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
Rather, I habitually do just as the Father commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. “Get up, let us leave here.
