John 14
1 Let not your heart be troubled: Believe on God, and, on me, believe.
"Let not your hearts be troubled. Trust in God: trust in me also.
2 In the house of my Father, are, many dwellings; or else I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you.
In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make ready a place for you.
3 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.
And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.
4 And, whither, I, go, ye know, the way.
And where I am going, you all know the way."
5 Thomas saith unto him—Lord! we know not whither thou goest: How know we, the way?
"Master," said Thomas, "we do not know where you are going. In what sense do we know the way?"
6 Jesus saith unto him—I, am the way, and the truth, and the life: No one, cometh unto the Father, but through me.
"I am the Way," replied Jesus, "and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7 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.
If you--all of you--knew me, you would fully know my Father also. From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him."
8 Philip saith unto him—Lord! show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
"Master," said Philip, "cause us to see the Father: that is all we need."
9 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?
"Have I been so long among you," Jesus answered, "and yet you, Philip, do not know me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you ask me, 'Cause us to see the Father'?
10 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.
Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me? The things that I tell you all I do not speak on my own authority: but the Father dwelling within me carries on His own work.
11 Believe me, That, I, am in the Father, and, the Father, in me; —or else, on account of the works themselves, believe ye.
Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.
12 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, —
In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me--the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.
13 And because, whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, the same, will I do, that, the Father, may be glorified, in the Son:
And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If anything ye shall ask [me] in my name, the same, will I do.
If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.
15 If ye be loving me, my commandments, ye will keep;
"If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
16 And, I, will request the Father, and, Another Advocate, will he give unto you, that he may be with you age-abidingly, (aiōn g165)
And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate to be for ever with you--the Spirit of truth. (aiōn g165)
17 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.
That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. You know Him, because He remains by your side and is in you.
18 I will not leave you bereft, —I am coming unto you.
I will not leave you bereaved: I am coming to you.
19 Yet a little, and, the world, no longer beholdeth me; but, ye, behold me, —Because, I, live, ye also, shall live.
Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me: because I live, you also shall live.
20 In that day, shall ye get to know, That, I, am in my Father, and, ye, in me, and, I, in you.
At that time you will know that I am in my Father, and that you are in me, and that I am in you.
21 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.
He who has my commandments and obeys them--he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will clearly reveal myself to him."
22 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?
Judas (not the Iscariot) asked, "Master, how is it that you will reveal yourself clearly to us and not to the world?"
23 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.
"If any one loves me," replied Jesus, "he will obey my teaching; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
24 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.
He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching; and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine, but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.
25 These things, have I spoken unto you, With you abiding;
"All this I have spoken to you while still with you.
26 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.
But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send at my request, will teach you everything, and will bring to your memories all that I have said to you.
27 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.
Peace I leave with you: my own peace I give to you. It is not as the world gives its greetings that I give you peace. Let not your hearts be troubled or dismayed.
28 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.
"You heard me say to you, 'I am going away, and yet I am coming to you.' If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I am.
29 But, now, have I told you, before it cometh to pass, that, whensoever it shall come to pass, ye may believe.
I have now told you before it comes to pass, that when it has come to pass you may believe.
30 No longer, many things, will I speak with you; for, the world’s ruler, is coming, and, in me, hath, nothing, —
In future I shall not talk much with you, for the Prince of this world is coming. And yet in me he has nothing;
31 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.
but it is in order that the world may know that I love the Father, and that it is in obedience to the command which the Father gave me that I thus act. Rise, let us be going."
