< John 14 >

1 “Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
Let not your heart be troubled: Believe on God, and, on me, believe.
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 the house of my Father, are, many dwellings; or else 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, again, am I coming, and will take you home unto—myself, that, where, I, am, ye also, may be.
4 You know where I go, and you know the way.”
And, whither, I, go, ye know, the way.
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
Thomas saith unto him—Lord! we know not whither thou goest: How know we, 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 saith unto him—I, am the way, and the truth, and the life: No one, cometh unto 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 ye had been getting to know me, my Father also, had ye known: from henceforth, are ye getting to know him, and have seen him.
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
Philip saith unto him—Lord! show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
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 saith unto him—So long a time as this, have I been, with you, —and thou hast not come to know me, Philip? He that hath seen me, hath seen the Father. How art, thou, saying, 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.
Believest thou not, that, I, am in the Father, and, the Father, is, in me? The things which I am saying unto you, from myself, I speak not; but, the Father, within me abiding, doeth his 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, the Father, in me; —or else, on account of the works themselves, believe ye.
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 unto you—He that believeth on me, the works which, I, am doing, he also, shall do; and, greater than these, shall he do, because, I, unto the Father, am going, —
13 Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
And because, whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, the same, will I do, that, the Father, may be glorified, in the Son:
14 If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
If anything ye shall ask [me] in my name, the same, will I do.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
If ye be loving me, my commandments, ye will keep;
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 request the Father, and, Another Advocate, will he give unto you, that he may be with you age-abidingly, (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 truth, —which, the world, cannot receive, because it beholdeth it not, nor getteth to know it. But, ye, are getting to know it; because, with you, it abideth, and, in you, it is.
18 I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
I will not leave you bereft, —I am coming unto 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, and, the world, no longer beholdeth me; but, ye, behold me, —Because, I, live, ye 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 day, shall ye get to know, That, I, am in my Father, and, ye, 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 hath my commandments and keepeth them, he, it is that loveth me; and, he that loveth me, shall be loved by my Father, and, I, will love him, and will manifest, myself, unto 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 the Iscariot, saith unto him—Lord! what hath happened, that, unto us, thou art about to manifest thyself, and, not unto 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 unto him—If any man be loving me, my word, he will keep, and, my Father, will love him, —and, unto him, will we come, and, an abode with him, will we make.
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 loveth me not, doth not keep, my word; —and, the word which ye 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 unto you, With you abiding;
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 Advocate, The Holy Spirit, which the Father will send in my name, He, will teach you all things, and will put you in mind, of all things which, I, told 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 with you, My own peace, give, I, unto you, —Not as, the world, giveth, give, I, unto you: —Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it 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.
Ye heard that, I, said unto you—I go my way, and I come unto you, —Had ye loved me, ye would have rejoiced, that I am going unto 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.
But, now, have I told you, before it cometh to pass, that, whensoever it shall come to pass, ye may believe.
30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
No longer, many things, will I speak with you; for, the world’s ruler, is coming, and, in me, hath, nothing, —
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, that the world may get to know that I love the Father, and just as the Father hath given me commandment, so, I do. Be rousing yourselves! let us be leading on from hence.
