Juan 14
1 No se turbe su corazón; tengan fe en Dios y tengan fe en mí.
[Jesus continued by saying to us], “Stop being anxious/worried. Keep on trusting in God (OR, You are trusting in God); also keep trusting in me.
2 En la casa de mi Padre hay habitaciones suficientes; si no fuera así, ¿habría dicho que voy a preparar un lugar para ustedes?
Where my Father is [in heaven] there is plenty of room! If that were not true, I would have told you. I am about to go [there] to prepare a place for you.
3 Y si voy y preparo un lugar para ustedes, volveré y les llevaré para que estén conmigo, para que estén donde yo estoy.
And because I will go [there] and prepare a place for you, I will return and take you there to be with me. I will do that so that you may also be where I am.
4 Y todos ustedes saben a dónde voy y el camino hacia él.
You know the road to the place where I am going.”
5 Tomás dijo: Señor, no sabemos a dónde vas; Señor cómo sabremos tu camino?
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. [So] how can we know the road?”
6 Jesús le dijo: Yo soy el camino la verdad y la vida: nadie viene al Padre sino por mí.
Jesus said to him, “I am the road [MET] [to where my Father is]. I am the [one who reveals] [MET] the truth [about God] and the [one who gives eternal] life [to people]. I am the only one who can [enable people] to come to [my] Father. There is no other way.
7 Si ustedes me conocieran, conocerían a mi Padre; ahora ustedes lo han conocido y lo han visto.
If you [really] knew who I was, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and [it is as though] you have seen him.”
8 Felipe le dijo: Señor, veamos al Padre, y no tenemos necesidad de nada más.
Philip said to him, “Lord, show us your Father and that will be enough for us!”
9 Jesús le dijo: Felipe, ¿he estado contigo todo este tiempo, y aún no me has conocido? El que me ha visto ha visto al Padre. ¿Por qué dices, muéstranos al padre?
Jesus said to him, “Philip, I have been with you for a long time. So (surely you should know who I [really am]!/why have you not come to know who I [really am]?) [RHQ] Those who have seen me, [it is as though] they have seen [my] Father. So (why do you say ‘Show us [your] Father’?/you should not say ‘Show us [your] Father’!) [RHQ]
10 ¿No tienes fe en que yo estoy en el Padre y el Padre está en mí? Las palabras que yo les digo, no les digo de mí mismo: pero el Padre que está en mí todo el tiempo hace sus obras.
Do you not [RHQ] believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father, and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me? The messages that I tell you do not come from me. They come from my Father, who has a close relationship with me. He is enabling me to [teach these things, and] to perform the miracles that he [wants me to perform].
11 Tengan fe en que yo estoy en el Padre y que el Padre está en mí: al menos, tengan fe en mí por lo que hago.
Believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me. If you do not believe that just because of what I say, believe it because of the miracles themselves [that I have done].
12 En verdad les digo, el que pone su fe en mí hará las mismas obras que yo hago, y él hará cosas más grandes que estas, porque yo voy a mi Padre.
Listen to this carefully: [You] who trust in me will do the [kinds of] miracles [that I have done]. [Because of what I will do for you] (OR, [Because I will send God’s Spirit to you]) after I go to my Father, you will be able to do [miracles] that will be greater than [the ones I have done].
13 Y cualquier petición que hagan en mi nombre, lo haré, para que el Padre se gloríe en el Hijo.
And whatever you, using my authority, ask me to do, I will do it, in order that I can show [you] how great [my] Father is.
14 Si me piden algo en mi nombre, lo haré.
Anything that you ask [my Father to do, anything that you ask] with my [authority] [MTY], I will do.”
15 Si me aman, guardarán mis mandamientos.
“If you love me, you will do what I have commanded you.
16 Y haré oración al Padre y él les dará otro Ayudador para que esté con ustedes para siempre, (aiōn g165)
Then I myself will request [my] Father, and he will send you someone else who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. (aiōn g165)
17 Incluso yo le pediré al Padre que les envíe el Espíritu del verdadero conocimiento. Ese Espíritu que el mundo no puede recibir porque no lo ve y no tiene conocimiento de él, pero usted tiene conocimiento de él, porque él está siempre con ustedes y estará en ustedes.
[I am talking about] the Spirit, who [will teach you God’s] truth. He will be with you forever. Those who are opposed to God [MTY] cannot receive him, because they cannot understand what he [does], and they cannot know who he is. But you know who he is, because he is with you and he will be inside you.
18 No los dejaré huérfanos: voy a regresar con ustedes.
[When I leave you], I will not let you be alone/helpless [MET]. [When I send the Spirit, it will be like] I am coming back to you (OR, [When I rise from the dead], I will come back to you.)
19 Un poco más de tiempo, y el mundo no me verá más; pero me verán ustedes; y vivirán porque estoy vivo.
Soon those who do not belong to God [MTY] will not see me any more. But [when the Spirit comes to you, it will be as though] you will be seeing me again (OR, But [after I become alive again], you will see me again.) Because I will be alive again, you also will have [eternal] life.
20 En ese momento les será claro que yo estoy en mi Padre, y ustedes están en mí, y yo en ustedes.
At that time you will know that I have a close relationship with my Father, and you will have a close relationship with me, and I will have a close relationship with you.
21 El que recibe mis mandamientos y los guarda, ése es el que me ama; y el que me ama será amado por mi Padre, y yo le amaré, y me dejaré ver claramente por él.
Those who have accepted my commands and obey them are the people who love me. My Father will love those who love me. I also will love them, and I will fully reveal to them [what I am like].”
22 Judas (no Iscariote) le dijo: ¿Cómo es que te dejarás ver claramente por nosotros y no por el mundo?
Then Judas spoke to him. He was not Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), [but instead a disciple whose other name was Thaddeus]. He said, “Lord, what has happened so that you can fully reveal to us what you are like, and not reveal that to those who do not belong to God [MTY]?”
23 Respondió Jesús y le dijo: Si alguno me ama, guardará mis palabras; y amará a mi Padre; y vendremos a vivir con él.
Jesus replied to him, “Those who love me will obey what I have told them. My Father will [also] love them. It is those people whom my Father and I will [be able to] come to and (live with/have a personal relationship with).
24 El que no me ama no guarda mis palabras; y la palabra que están oyendo no es mi palabra sino la del Padre que me envió.
But those who do not love me will not obey what I have told them. [So I cannot reveal to them what I am really like]. These words that I am telling you have not come just from me. They came from [my] Father, the one who sent me.
25 Les he dicho todo esto mientras todavía estoy con ustedes.
I have told you all these things while I am still with you.
26 Pero el Ayudador, el Espíritu Santo, a quien el Padre enviará en mi nombre, será su maestro en todas las cosas y les recordará todo lo que les he dicho.
But [my] Father will send the Holy Spirit. He is the one who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. He will come with my authority [MTY]. He will teach you all of [God’s truth that you need to know]. He will also cause you to remember all the things that I have told you.
27 Que la paz sea con ustedes; mi paz les doy: no la doy como el mundo da. No dejen que su corazón esté preocupado; no tengan miedo.
As I leave you, I am causing you to have [inner] peace. This [inner] peace comes from me. I am not causing you to have something that those who do not belong to God [MTY] can give you. [So] stop being anxious/worried, and do not be afraid.
28 Recuerda cómo les dije: me voy y vuelvo otra vez. Si me amaran, se alegrarán, porque iré al Padre; porque el Padre es más grande que yo.
You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, but [later] I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going back to [my] Father, because [my] Father is greater than I am, [and there he will honor me and will send the Spirit to you].
29 Y ahora les he hablado de ello antes, para que cuando suceda, puedan creer.
I have told you [these things now] before they happen, so that when they happen you will believe [that what I said is true].
30 Después de esto no les hablaré mucho, porque el príncipe de este mundo viene; y él no tiene poder sobre mí;
I will not [be able to] talk to you much longer, because what happens to me will be as though [Satan], the ruler of this world, is coming [to attack me]. But he has no [control over what happens to] me.
31 Así tiene que ser, para que el mundo pueda ver que tengo amor por el Padre, y que estoy haciendo lo que el Padre me ordena. Levántense y vámonos.
Instead, the people who do not belong to God [MTY] must learn [from what happens to me] that I love [my] Father, and I am doing the things that he has commanded me to do. Now, let’s get up and leave here.”
