< John 14 >

1 “Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
Let not your heart be troubled; believe in God; believe also in me.
2 In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.
In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 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.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you with myself, that where I am, you may be also.
4 You know where I go, and you know the way.”
And whither I go you know, and the way you know.
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
Thomas said to him: Lord, we know not whither thou goest, and 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 said to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through me.
7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him and have seen him.”
If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. And from this time you know him, and have seen him.
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
Philip said to him: Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be content.
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
Jesus said to him: Have I been so long with you, and have you not known me, Philip? He that has seen me, has seen the Father; and how say you, Show us the Father?
10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.
Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you, I speak not of myself. The Father who dwells in me, he 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 that the Father is in me. If not, believe me on account of the works themselves.
12 Most certainly 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 my Father.
Verily, verily I say to you, he that believes on me, the works that I do he also shall do. Even greater works than these shall he do, because I go to my Father;
13 Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
and whatever you ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
If you ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
If you love me, keep my commandments;
16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever: (aiōn g165)
and I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Paraclete, that he may dwell with you forever; (aiōn g165)
17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive, for it doesn’t see him and doesn’t know him. You know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
the Spirit of the truth, whom the world can not receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, because he dwells with you, and shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
I will not leave you orphans; I am coming 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.
Yet a little while, and the world sees me no more; but you shall see me. Because I live, you also shall live.
20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
In that clay you shall know that I am in my Father, arid you in me, and I in you.
21 One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”
He that has my commandments and keeps them, he it is that loves me; and he that loves me shall be loved by my Father; and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
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, said to him: Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself to us, and not to the world?
23 Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
Jesus answered and said to him: If any one loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him.
24 He who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words. The word which you hear isn’t mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
He that loves me not, keeps not my words; and the word which you hear is not mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
25 “I have said these things to you while still living with you.
These things have I spoken to you, while I am yet with you.
26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
But the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I have spoken to you.
27 Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.
Peace I leave to you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives, do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, and let it not be afraid.
28 You heard how I told you, ‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I said ‘I am going to my Father;’ for the Father is greater than I.
You have heard that I said to you, I am going away, and am coming again to you. If you loved me, you would rejoice, because I go to the Father; for my Father is greater than I.
29 Now I have told you before it happens so that when it happens, you may believe.
And now I have told you before it comes to pass, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.
30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
I will not talk much more with you; for the prince of this world is coming, and has nothing in me.
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let’s go from here.
But this takes place that the world may know that I love the Father, and even as he gave me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
