John 14

World English Bible (WEB)

1 Ref "Don't let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.

2 Ref In my Father's house are many mansions. If it weren't so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.

3 Ref 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.

4 Ref Where I go, you know, and you know the way."

5 Ref Thomas says to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going. How can we know the way?"

6 Ref Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

7 Ref If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and have seen him."

8 Ref Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us."

9 Ref 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?'

10 Ref 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.

11 Ref Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works' sake.

12 Ref Most assuredly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these will he do; because I am going to my Father.

13 Ref Whatever you will ask in my name, that 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.

15 Ref If you love me, keep my commandments.

16 Ref I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor,{Greek Parakleton: Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, and Comfortor.} that he may be with you forever,--

17 Ref the Spirit of truth, whom the world can't receive; for it doesn't see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.

18 Ref I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.

19 Ref Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.

20 Ref In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

21 Ref 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."

22 Ref Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?"

23 Ref 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.

24 Ref 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.

25 Ref I have said these things to you, while still living with you.

26 Ref But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

27 Ref Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Don't let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.

28 Ref You heard how I told you, 'I go away, and I come 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.

29 Ref Now I have told you before it happens so that, when it happens, you may believe.

30 Ref I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.

31 Ref But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

1 Ref Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me.

2 Ref In 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.

3 Ref And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, `there' ye may be also.

4 Ref And whither I go, ye know the way.

5 Ref Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way?

6 Ref Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.

7 Ref If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

8 Ref Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Ref Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and dost thou not know me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; how sayest thou, Show us the Father?

10 Ref Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his works.

11 Ref Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

12 Ref Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater `works' than these shall he do; because I go unto the Father.

13 Ref And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 If ye shall ask anything in my name, that will I do.

15 Ref If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments.

16 Ref And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever,

17 Ref `even' the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him not, neither knoweth him: ye know him; for he abideth with you, and shall be in you.

18 Ref I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you.

19 Ref Yet a little while, and the world beholdeth me no more; but ye behold me: because I live, ye shall live also.

20 Ref In that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

21 Ref He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself unto him.

22 Ref Judas (not Iscariot) saith unto him, Lord, what is come to pass that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

23 Ref Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

24 Ref He that loveth me not keepeth not my words: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.

25 Ref These things have I spoken unto you, while `yet' abiding with you.

26 Ref But 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 unto you.

27 Ref Peace I leave with you; my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.

28 Ref Ye heard how I said to you, I go away, and I come unto you. If ye loved me, ye would have rejoiced, because I go unto the Father: for the Father is greater than I.

29 Ref And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe.

30 Ref I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world cometh: and he hath nothing in me;

31 Ref but 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 hence.
