John 14
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
1 Ref `Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, also in me believe;
2 Ref in the house of my Father are many mansions; and if not, I would have told you; I go on to prepare a place for you;
3 Ref and if I go on and prepare for you a place, again do I come, and will receive you unto myself, that where I am ye also may be;
4 Ref and whither I go away ye have known, and the way ye have known.'
5 Ref Thomas saith to him, `Sir, we have not known whither thou goest away, and how are we able to know the way?'
6 Ref Jesus saith to him, `I am the way, and the truth, and the life, no one doth come unto the Father, if not through me;
7 Ref if ye had known me, my Father also ye would have known, and from this time ye have known Him, and have seen Him.'
8 Ref Philip saith to him, `Sir, shew to us the Father, and it is enough for us;'
9 Ref Jesus saith to him, `So long time am I with you, and thou hast not known me, Philip? he who hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how dost thou say, Shew to us the Father?
10 Ref Believest thou not that I `am' in the Father, and the Father is in me? the sayings that I speak to you, from myself I speak not, and the Father who is abiding in me, Himself doth the works;
11 Ref believe me, that I `am' in the Father, and the Father in me; and if not, because of the works themselves, believe me.
12 Ref `Verily, verily, I say to you, he who is believing in me, the works that I do -- that one also shall do, and greater than these he shall do, because I go on to my Father;
13 Ref and whatever ye may ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son;
14 if ye ask anything in my name I will do `it'.
15 Ref `If ye love me, my commands keep,
16 Ref and I will ask the Father, and another Comforter He will give to you, that he may remain with you -- to the age;
17 Ref the Spirit of truth, whom the world is not able to receive, because it doth not behold him, nor know him, and ye know him, because he doth remain with you, and shall be in you.
18 Ref `I will not leave you bereaved, I come unto you;
19 Ref yet a little, and the world doth no more behold me, and ye behold me, because I live, and ye shall live;
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 who is having my commands, and is keeping them, that one it is who is loving me, and he who is loving me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.'
22 Ref Judas saith to him, (not the Iscariot), `Sir, what hath come to pass, that to us thou are about to manifest thyself, and not to the world?'
23 Ref Jesus answered and said to him, `If any one may love me, my word he will keep, and my Father will love him, and unto him we will come, and abode with him we will make;
24 Ref he who is not loving me, my words doth not keep; and the word that ye hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.
25 Ref `These things I have spoken to you, remaining with you,
26 Ref and the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and remind you of all things that I said to you.
27 Ref `Peace I leave to you; my peace I give to you, not according as the world doth give do I give to you; let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid;
28 Ref ye heard that I said to you -- I go away, and I come unto you; if ye did love me, ye would have rejoiced that I said -- I go on to the Father, because my Father is greater than I.
29 Ref `And now I have said `it' to you before it come to pass, that when it may come to pass, ye may believe;
30 Ref I will no more talk much with you, for the ruler of this world doth come, and in me he hath nothing;
31 Ref but that the world may know that I love the Father, and according as the Father gave me command so I do; arise, we may go hence.

1 Ref Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.
2 Ref In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you?
3 Ref And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am.
4 Ref And you all have knowledge of where I am going, and of the way to it.
5 Ref Thomas said, Lord, we have no knowledge of where you are going; how may we have knowledge of the way?
6 Ref Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.
7 Ref If you had knowledge of me, you would have knowledge of my Father: you have knowledge of him now and have seen him.
8 Ref Philip said to him, Lord, let us see the Father, and we have need of nothing more.
9 Ref Jesus said to him, Philip, have I been with you all this time, and still you have no knowledge of me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. Why do you say, Let us see the Father?
10 Ref Have you not faith that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you, I say not from myself: but the Father who is in me all the time does his works.
11 Ref Have faith that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me: at least, have faith in me because of what I do.

13 Ref And whatever request you make in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may have glory in the Son.

15 Ref If you have love for me, you will keep my laws.
16 Ref And I will make prayer to the Father and he will give you another Helper to be with you for ever,

18 Ref I will not let you be without a friend: I am coming to you.
19 Ref A little time longer, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me; and you will be living because I am living.
20 Ref At that time it will be clear to you that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I in you.
21 Ref He who has my laws and keeps them, he it is who has love for me: and he who has love for me will be loved by my Father, and I will have love for him and will let myself be seen clearly by him.
22 Ref Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, How is it that you will let yourself be seen clearly by us and not by the world?
23 Ref Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.
24 Ref He who has no love for me does not keep my words; and the word which you are hearing is not my word but the Father's who sent me.
25 Ref I have said all this to you while I am still with you.
26 Ref But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will be your teacher in all things and will put you in mind of everything I have said to you.
27 Ref May peace be with you; my peace I give to you: I give it not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled; let it be without fear.
28 Ref Keep in mind how I said to you, I go away and come to you again. If you had love for me you would be glad, because I am going to the Father: for the Father is greater than I.
29 Ref And now I have given you word of it before it comes, so that, when it comes, you may have faith.
30 Ref After this I will not say much to you, because the ruler of this world comes: and he has no power over me;
31 Ref But he comes so that the world may see that I have love for the Father, and that I am doing as I am ordered by the Father. Get up, and let us go.
