John 14

1Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me. 2In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4And where I go, you know the way. 5Thomas says to him, Lord, we do not know where you are going; how do we know the way? 6Yeshua says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father, but by me. 7If you had known me, you would have known my Father also: from now on you know him, and have seen him. 8Philip says to him, Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us. 9Yeshua says to him, Have I been so long with you, and do you not know me, Philip? he who has seen me has seen the Father; how do you say, Show us the Father? 10Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say to you I do not speak from myself: but the Father abiding in me does his works. 11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the sake of the works themselves. 12Truly, truly, I say to you, The one believing in me, the works that I do he shall do also; and greater works than these he shall do; because I go to the Father. 13And whatever you ask in my name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If you ask anything in my name, that I will do. 15If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 16And I will ask the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you forever, 17even the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it does not behold him, nor know him: you know him; for he abides with you, and shall be in you. 18I will not leave you desolate: I come to you. 19Yet a little while, and the world beholds me no more; but you behold me: because I live, you shall live also. 20In that day you shall know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. 21He who has my commandments, and keeps them, it is he who loves me: and he who loves me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. 22Judas (not Iscariot) says to him, Lord, what has come to pass that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world? 23Yeshua answered and said to him, If a man 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. 24He who does not love me does not keep my words: and the word which you hear is not mine, but the Father’s who sent me. 25These things I have spoken to you, while still abiding with you. 26But the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. 27Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you: not as the world gives, do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful. 28You heard how I said to you, I go away, and I come to you. If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father: for the Father is greater than I. 29And now I have told you before it comes to pass, that, when it has come to pass, you may believe. 30I will no longer speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes: and he has nothing in me; 31but that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go from here.
