John 14
1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.
2 Many mansions are in the house of my Father; but if it were not so, I would have told you; because I go to prepare a place for you.
In my Father’s Home there are many dwellings. If it had not been so, I should have told you, for I am going to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I may go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; in order that you may also be where I am.
And, since I go and prepare a place for you, I shall return and take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am;
4 And whither I go, you know the way.
and you know the way to the place where I am going.”
5 And Thomas says to Him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest: and how do we know the way?
“We do not know where you are going, Master,” said Thomas; “so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh to the Father, but through me.
Jesus answered: “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life; no one ever comes to the Father except through me.
7 If you have known me, you shall also know my Father: and henceforth you know Him and have seen Him.
If you had recognised me, you would have known my Father also; for the future you will recognise him, indeed you have already seen him.”
8 Philip says to Him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
“Master, show us the Father,” said Philip, “and we shall be satisfied.”
9 Jesus says to Him, Am I so long time with you, and hast thou not known me, Philip? The one having seen me hath seen the Father: how do you say, Show us the Father?
“Have I been all this time among you,” said Jesus, “and yet you, Philip, have not recognised me? He who has seen me has seen the Father, how can you say, then, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 Dost thou not believe, that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words which I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father who abideth in me doeth His own works.
Do not you believe that I am in union with the Father, and the Father with me? In giving you my teaching I am not speaking on my own authority; but the Father himself, always in union with me, does his own work.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or if not, believe for the sake of the works themselves.
Believe me,” he said to them all, “when I say that I am in union with the Father and the Father with me, or else believe me on account of the work itself.
12 Truly, truly, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, shall also do the works which I am doing; and shall do greater works than these: because I go to the Father:
In truth I tell you, he who believes in me will himself do the work that I am doing; and he will do greater work still, because I am going to the Father.
13 and whatsoever you may ask in my name, I will do it, in order that the rather may be glorified in the Son.
Whatever you ask, in my Name, I will do, that the Father may be honoured in the Son.
14 If you may ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.
If you ask anything, in my Name, I will do it.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
If you love me, you will lay my commands to heart,
16 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter, that He may be with you always, (aiōn g165)
and I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you always — the Spirit of Truth. (aiōn g165)
17 the Spirit of truth: which the world is not able to receive, because it does not see Him, nor know Him: you know Him: because He abideth with you, and shall be in you.
The world cannot receive this Spirit, because it does not see him or recognise him, but you recognise him, because he is always with you, and is within you.
18 I will not leave you orphans: I am coming to you.
I will not leave you bereaved; I will come to you.
19 Vet a little while, and the world sees me no more; but you see me: because I live, you shall live also.
In a little while the world will see me no more, but you will still see me; because I am living, you will be living also.
20 In that day you shall know that I am in the Father, you in me, and I in you.
At that time you will recognise that I am in union with the Father, and you with me, and I with you.
21 The one having my commandments, and keeping them, he is the one loving me with divine love: the one loving me with divine love, shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will manifest myself unto him.
It is he who has my commands and lays them to heart that loves me; and he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”
22 Judas. (not Iscariot), says to Him, Lord, and how is it that you are about to manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?
“What has happened, Master,” said Judas (not Judas Iscariot), “that you are going to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”
23 Jesus responded and said to him; If any one may love me with divine love, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and will make our mansion with him.
“Whoever loves me,” Jesus answered, “will lay my Message to heart; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him.
24 The one not loving me with divine love does not keep my words: and the word which you hear is not mine, but that of the Father who sent me.
He who does not love me will not lay my Message to heart; and the Message to which you are listening is not my own, but that of the Father who sent me.
25 I have spoken these things to you, abiding with you:
I have told you all this while still with you,
26 but the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things, and remind you of all things, which I spoke to you.
but the Helper — the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my Name — he will teach you all things, and will recall to your minds all that I have said to you.
27 My peace I leave with you; my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor afraid.
Peace be with you! My own peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, or dismayed.
28 You heard that I said to you, I go away, and I come to you. If you love me with divine love, you would rejoice, because I go to my Father: because the Father is greater than I.
You heard me say that I was going away and would return to you. Had you loved me, you would have been glad that I was going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I.
29 And I have now told you before it takes place, in order that, when it may come to pass, you may believe.
And this I have told you now before it happens, that, when it does happen, you may still believe in me.
30 I shall no longer speak many things with you, because the prince of the world comes: and he has nothing in me;
I shall not talk with you much more, for the Spirit that is ruling the world is coming. He has nothing in common with me;
31 but in order that the world may know that I love the Father, and as He commanded, so I am doing. Arise, let us go hence.
but he is coming that the world may see that I love the Father, and that I do as the Father commanded me. Come, let us be going.
