1 “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me.1Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?2In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am.3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And you know the way to where I am going.”4And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
5“No, we don’t know, Lord,” Thomas said. “We have no idea where you are going, so how can we know the way?”5Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
6Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
7 If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!”7If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
8Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.”8Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
9Jesus replied, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and yet you still don’t know who I am? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking me to show him to you?9Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me.10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11 Just believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe because of the work you have seen me do.11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
12 “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father.12Verily, 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 my Father.
13 You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father.13And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it! Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit14If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
15 “If you love me, obey my commandments.15If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you.16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17 He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world cannot receive him, because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t recognize him. But you know him, because he lives with you now and later will be in you.17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
18 No, I will not abandon you as orphans—I will come to you.18I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19 Soon the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Since I live, you also will live.19Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
20 When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.20At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
21 Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. And because they love me, my Father will love them. And I will love them and reveal myself to each of them.”21He 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 to him.
22Judas (not Judas Iscariot, but the other disciple with that name) said to him, “Lord, why are you going to reveal yourself only to us and not to the world at large?”22Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23Jesus replied, “All who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them.23Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
24 Anyone who doesn’t love me will not obey me. And remember, my words are not my own. What I am telling you is from the Father who sent me.24He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
25 I am telling you these things now while I am still with you.25These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
26 But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.26But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
27 “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.27Peace 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 afraid.
28 Remember what I told you: I am going away, but I will come back to you again. If you really loved me, you would be happy that I am going to the Father, who is greater than I am.28Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
29 I have told you these things before they happen so that when they do happen, you will believe.29And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
30 “I don’t have much more time to talk to you, because the ruler of this world approaches. He has no power over me,30Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
31 but I will do what the Father requires of me, so that the world will know that I love the Father. Come, let’s be going.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 hence.
