John 14:1-11 ▼

1 Let not your heart be troubled: you trust in God, trust also in me.

2 in my father's house are many mansions; however, I have told you, I am going to prepare a place for you:

3 and when I am gone, and have prepar'd a place for you, I will come again, to take you with me, that where I am there ye may be also.

4 and where I am going you know, and the way ye know.

5 Thomas said to him, Lord, we know not whither you are going, how then can we know the way?

6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no man can come to the father, but by me.

7 if you had known me, you would likewise have known my father: and from henceforth you shall know him, nay, you have seen him.

8 Philip said to him, Lord shew us the father, and we are satisfied.

9 Jesus said to him, have I been with you so long, and don't you know me yet? Philip, he that hath seen me, hath seen the father; why then do you say, shew us the father?

10 don't you believe that I am in the father, and the father in me? the words that I speak unto you, I speak indeed, tho' not from my self; but as to the works, the father, who dwells in me, he is the agent.

11 believe me, I am in the father, and the father in me: at least believe me upon account of the very works.
