Yochanan 14
1 "Do not let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
“Don't let your minds be anxious. Trust in God, trust in me as well.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions. If it weren't so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.
In my Father's house there are many rooms. If this wasn't so I would have told you. I'm going to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.
Once I've gone and prepared a place for you, I will come again and take you back with me, so that you can be there with me too.
4 And you know the way where I am going."
You know the way to where I'm going.”
5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?"
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don't know where you're going. How can we know the way?”
6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Jesus replied, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7 If you know me, you will know my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him."
If you had known me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and you have seen him.”
8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us."
Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we'll be convinced.”
9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you all this time, and still you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father?'
Jesus replied, “Have I been with you such a long time, Philip, and yet you still don't know me? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.
Don't you believe that I live in the Father and the Father lives in me? The words I speak are not mine; it's the Father living in me who is doing his work.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me; or else believe because of the works themselves.
Believe me when I tell you that I live in the Father, and the Father lives in me, or at least believe because of the evidence provided by all that I've done.
12 Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father.
I tell you the truth, anyone who trusts in me will do the same things I am doing. In fact they will do even greater things because I am going to the Father.
13 And whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
I'll do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified through the Son.
14 If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
Whatever you ask for in my name, I will do it.
15 If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
If you love me, you will keep my commands.
16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Helper, that he may be with you forever, — (aiōn g165)
I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Comforter, (aiōn g165)
17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive; because it neither sees him nor knows him; but you know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.
the Spirit of truth, who will always be with you. The world cannot accept him because it isn't looking for him and does not know him. But you know him because he lives with you and will be in you.
18 I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
I will not abandon you like orphans: I will come back to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.
Soon the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you will live too.
20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
On that day you will know that I live in the Father, you live in me, and I live in you.
21 The one who has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me. And the one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him."
Those who keep my commands are the ones who love me, those who love me will be loved by my Father. I will love them too, and will reveal myself to them.”
22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?"
Judas (not Iscariot) responded, “Lord, why would you reveal yourself to us and not to the world?”
23 Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling place with him.
Jesus replied, “Those who love me will do as I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with them.
24 He who does not love me does not keep my words. The word which you hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.
Those who don't love me don't do what I say. These words don't come from me, they come from the Father who sent me.
25 All this I have spoken to you while I am still with you.
I'm explaining this to you while I'm still here with you.
26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
But when the Father sends the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, in my place, he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.
27 Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Peace I leave you; my peace I'm giving you. The peace I give you is nothing like what the world gives. Don't let your minds be anxious, and don't be afraid.
28 You heard how I told you, 'I am going away, and I will come to you.' If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I.
You've heard me tell you, ‘I am going away, but I will come back to you.’ If you really loved me, you would be happy because I'm going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
29 Now I have told you before it happens so that, when it happens, you may believe.
I've explained this to you now before it happens so that when it does happen you will be convinced.
30 I will not speak with you much longer, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has no hold on me.
I can't talk to you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no power to control me,
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, so I do. Arise, let us go from here.
but I'm doing what my Father told me to do so that the world will know that I love the Father. Now get up. Let's go.”
