1 “Don't let your minds be anxious. Trust in God, trust in me as well.

2 In my Father's house there are many rooms. If this wasn't so I would have told you. I'm going to prepare a place for you.

3 Once I've gone and prepared a place for you, I will come again and take you back with me, so that you can be there with me too.

5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don't know where you're going. How can we know the way?”

6 Jesus replied, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

9 Jesus replied, “Have I been with you such a long time, Philip, and yet you still don't know me? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
ⲑ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ϣ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅ ϯⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲕ̅ⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛⲧ ⲫⲓⲗⲓⲡⲡⲉ. ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈. ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲓⲱⲧ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲛ̅ⲁϣ ⲛ̅ϩⲉ ⲕϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲧⲥⲁⲃⲟⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲓ̈ⲱⲧ.
10 Don't you believe that I live in the Father and the Father lives in me? The words I speak are not mine; it's the Father living in me who is doing his work.

11 Believe me when I tell you that I live in the Father, and the Father lives in me, or at least believe because of the evidence provided by all that I've done.

12 I tell you the truth, anyone who trusts in me will do the same things I am doing. In fact they will do even greater things because I am going to the Father.

13 I'll do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified through the Son.

17 the Spirit of truth, who will always be with you. The world cannot accept him because it isn't looking for him and does not know him. But you know him because he lives with you and will be in you.

18 I will not abandon you like orphans: I will come back to you.

19 Soon the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you will live too.

21 Those who keep my commands are the ones who love me, those who love me will be loved by my Father. I will love them too, and will reveal myself to them.”

22 Judas (not Iscariot) responded, “Lord, why would you reveal yourself to us and not to the world?”

23 Jesus replied, “Those who love me will do as I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with them.

24 Those who don't love me don't do what I say. These words don't come from me, they come from the Father who sent me.

ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲓ̈ϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲁϩⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅.
26 But when the Father sends the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, in my place, he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.

27 Peace I leave you; my peace I'm giving you. The peace I give you is nothing like what the world gives. Don't let your minds be anxious, and don't be afraid.

28 You've heard me tell you, ‘I am going away, but I will come back to you.’ If you really loved me, you would be happy because I'm going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
