John 14
1 “Do not let your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In the house of my Father are many rooms. If it were not so, I would have told you, for I am going to prepare a place for you.

9 Jesus said to him, “I have been with you for so long and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?
ⲑ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲓⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲉⲓⲟⲩⲟⲓϣ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ϯⲛⲙⲙⲏⲧⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲕⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛⲧ ⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲓⲱⲧ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲛⲁϣ ⲛϩⲉ ⲕϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲧⲥⲁⲃⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲓⲱⲧ
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 my own authority, but the Father living in me 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.

12 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will do the works that I do, and he will do greater works than these because I am going to the Father.

16 and I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Comforter so that he will be with you forever— (aiōn g165)

19 Yet a short amount of time and the world will no longer see me, but you see me. Because I live, you will also live.

21 He who has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me, and he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and I will show myself to him.”

22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to Jesus, “Lord, why is it that you will show yourself to us and not to the world?”

23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and we will make our home with him.

24 He who does not love me does not keep my words. The word that you hear is not from me but from the Father who sent me.

26 However, the Comforter—the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name—he will teach you everything and he will remind you of everything that I said to you.

27 I leave you peace; I give you my peace. I do not give it as the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled, and do not be afraid.

28 You heard that I said to you, 'I am going away, and I will come back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad because I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I am.
