[John 14]

 

             {Joh 14:1-17:26 Thur. Night, Fri. to the Jews; no parallel.}

             ^14:1 Do not let your^° heart be disturbed; you^° believe into God, believe^° also into me. ^14:2 Many abodes are in my Father’s house; otherwise, I would have told you^°: I am traveling on to prepare a place for you^°. ^14:3 And if I travel on, I will be preparing a place for you^°. I am coming again and will be receiving you^° to myself; in-order-that where I am, you^° may also be there. ^14:4 And you^° know where I am proceeding-away to and you^° know the way.

             ^14:5 Thomas says to him, Lord, we do not know where you are proceeding-away to, and how are we able to know the way?

             ^14:6 Jesus says to him, I am the way and the truth and the life; no one is coming to the Father, except through me. ^14:7 If you^° had known me, you^° would have also known my Father; from now on you^° know him and have seen him.

             ^14:8 Philip says to him, Lord, show us the Father and it is enough for us.

             ^14:9 Jesus says to him, So-much time I am with you^° and you have not known me Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. And how can you say this? Show us the Father. ^14:10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words which I am speaking to you^°, I do not speak from myself, but the Father who is abiding in me; he himself is doing^* the works. ^14:11 Either believe^° me, that I am in the Father and the Father in me, otherwise believe^° me because of the works themselves. ^14:12 Assuredly, assuredly, I am saying to you^°, The one believing into me, the works which I am doing^*, he will also be doing^*, and he will be doing^* greater works than these, because I am traveling on to my Father. ^14:13 And anything whatever you^° might ask in my name, I will do^* this, in-order-that the Father might be glorified in the Son. ^14:14 If you^° should ask me anything in my name, I will do^* it. ^14:15 If you^° love^* me, keep^° my commandments.

             ^14:16 And I will be requesting of the Father and he will be giving you^° another Helper^*, in-order-that he may abide with you^° forever, ^14:17 the Spirit of the truth, whom the world is not able to receive, because it does not view him, nor know him, but you^° know him, because he is abiding with you^° and will be in you^°. ^14:18 I will not be leaving you^° orphans. I am coming to you^°. ^14:19 Still a little while and the world views me no more, but you^° view me, because I am living, you^° will also be living. ^14:20 You^° will know in that day that I am in my Father and you^° in me and I in you^°. ^14:21 He who holds my commandments and is keeping them, that one is he who loves^* me and he who loves^* me will be loved^* by my Father and I will love^* him and will be manifesting myself to him.

             ^14:22 Judas (not Iscariot) says to him, Lord, what has happened that you are about to manifest yourself to us and not to the world?

             ^14:23 Jesus answered and said to him, If anyone loves^* me, he will be keeping my word and my Father will love^* him, and we will be coming to him and we will be making^* an abode beside him. ^14:24 He who does not love^* me, is not keeping my words.

             And the word which you^° hear is not mine, but the Father’s, he who sent me.

             ^14:25 I have spoken these things to you^°, while abiding with you^°. ^14:26 But the Helper^*, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will be sending in my name, that one will be teaching you^° all things and will be reminding you^° of all things which I said to you^°. ^14:27 I am leaving peace with you^°. I am giving my peace to you^°; not like the world gives, I am giving to you^°. Let your^° heart not be disturbed, nor let it be cowardly {Or: timid}. ^14:28 You^° heard that I said to you^°, I am proceeding-away and I am coming to you^°. If you^° loved^* me, you^° would have rejoiced, because I said, I am traveling on to the Father, because the Father is greater than I. ^14:29 And now I have said this to you^° before it is to happen, in-order-that, whenever it happens, you^° may believe. ^14:30 I will not be speaking much anymore with you^°, for^* the ruler of the world is coming and he has nothing in me; ^14:31 but in-order-that the world may know that I love^* the Father and just-as the Father commanded me, thus I am doing^*.

             Arise^°, let us be proceeding from here.
