< John 14 >
1 Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, and, believe in me.
2 There are many mansions in the house of my Father: and if not, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go to prepare for you a place, I will come again and take you to myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And whither I go, ye know; and the way ye know.
5 Thomas said to him: Our Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
6 Jesus said to him: I am the way, and truth, and life: no one cometh unto my Father, but by me.
7 If ye had known me, ye would also have known my Father: and henceforth, ye know him, and have seen him.
8 Philip said to him: Our Lord, show us the Father, and it will suffice for us.
9 Jesus said to him: Have I been all this time with you, and hast thou not known me, Philip? He that seeth me, seeth the Father: and how sayest thou, Show us the Father?
10 Believest thou not, that I am in my Father, and my Father in me? And the words which I speak, I speak not from myself: but my Father, who dwelleth in me, he doeth these works.
11 Believe, that I am in my Father, and my Father in me. And if not, believe, at least, on account of the works.
12 Verily, verily, I say to you: He that believeth in me, the works which I do, will he also do. And greater than these will he do, because I go unto my Father.
13 And what ye shall ask in my name, I will do for you; that the Father may be glorified in his Son.
14 And if ye shall ask of me, in my name, I will do it.
15 If ye love me, keep my commands.
16 And I will ask of my Father, and he will give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever, (aiōn )
17 the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, and knoweth him not: but ye know him, because he abideth with you, and is in you.
18 I shall not leave you orphans: for I shall come to you in a little while.
19 And the world will not see me; but ye will see me. Because I live, ye will live also.
20 In that day ye will know, that I am in my Father; and that ye are in me, and I in you.
21 He, with whom are my commands, and who keepeth them, he it is that loveth me. And he that loveth me, will be loved by my Father: and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
22 Judas, not Iscariot, said to him: My Lord, how is it that thou art to manifest thyself to us, and not to the world?
23 Jesus answered, and said to him: He that loveth me, observeth my instruction; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him.
24 But he that loveth me not, observeth not my instruction. And the instruction which ye hear, is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.
25 These things have I said to you, while I was with you.
26 But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you every thing, and will remind you of all that I say to you.
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. It is not as the world giveth, that I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor be afraid.
28 Ye have heard what I said to you that I go away, and come again to you. If ye had loved me, ye would have rejoiced, that I go to my Father; for my Father is greater than I
29 And now, lo, I have told you, before it occurreth; so that when it shall have occurred, ye may believe.
30 Hereafter I shall not converse much with you; for the ruler of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
31 But that the world may know, that I love my Father, and as my Father commanded me, so I do. Arise; let us go hence.
