1 ` Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, also in me believe;

“Do not let your heart be troubled. You have put your trust in God, put your trust in Me also.

2 i n 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;

There are many rooms in My Father’s house. If it were not so, I would have told you. I am going away to make a place for you.

3 a nd 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;

After I go and make a place for you, I will come back and take you with Me. Then you may be where I am.

4 a nd whither I go away ye have known, and the way ye have known.'

You know where I am going and you know how to get there.”

5 T homas saith to him, `Sir, we have not known whither thou goest away, and how are we able to know the way?'

Thomas said to Jesus, “Lord, we do not know where You are going. How can we know the way to get there?”

6 J esus saith to him, `I am the way, and the truth, and the life, no one doth come unto the Father, if not through me;

Jesus said, “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one can go to the Father except by Me.

7 i f ye had known me, my Father also ye would have known, and from this time ye have known Him, and have seen Him.'

If you had known Me, you would know My Father also. From now on you know Him and have seen Him.” Jesus and His Father Are One

8 P hilip saith to him, `Sir, shew to us the Father, and it is enough for us;'

Philip said to Jesus, “Lord, show us the Father. That is all we ask.”

9 J esus 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?

Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you all this time and you do not know Me yet? Whoever has seen Me, has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

10 B elievest thou not that I 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;

Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father is in Me? What I say to you, I do not say by My own power. The Father Who lives in Me does His work through Me.

11 b elieve me, that I in the Father, and the Father in me; and if not, because of the works themselves, believe me.

“Believe Me that I am in the Father and that the Father is in Me. Or else believe Me because of the things I do.

12 ` 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;

For sure, I tell you, whoever puts his trust in Me can do the things I am doing. He will do even greater things than these because I am going to the Father.

13 a nd whatever ye may ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son;

Whatever you ask in My name, I will do it so the shining-greatness of the Father may be seen in the Son.

14 i f ye ask anything in my name I will do.

Yes, if you ask anything in My name, I will do it. Jesus Promises to Give the Holy Spirit

15 ` If ye love me, my commands keep,

“If you love Me, you will do what I say.

16 a nd I will ask the Father, and another Comforter He will give to you, that he may remain with you -- to the age;

Then I will ask My Father and He will give you another Helper. He will be with you forever.

17 t he 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.

He is the Spirit of Truth. The world cannot receive Him. It does not see Him or know Him. You know Him because He lives with you and will be in you. Jesus Tells of His Death

18 ` I will not leave you bereaved, I come unto you;

“I will not leave you without help as children without parents. I will come to you.

19 y et a little, and the world doth no more behold me, and ye behold me, because I live, and ye shall live;

In a little while the world will see Me no more. You will see Me. Because I live, you will live also.

20 i n that day ye shall know that I in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you;

When that day comes, you will know that I am in My Father. You will know that you are in Me. You will know that I am in you.

21 h e 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.'

The one who loves Me is the one who has My teaching and obeys it. My Father will love whoever loves Me. I will love him and will show Myself to him.”

22 J udas 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?'

The other Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Why is it You are going to show Yourself to us followers and not to the world?”

23 J esus 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;

Jesus said, “The one who loves Me will obey My teaching. My Father will love him. We will come to him and live with him.

24 h e 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.

The one who does not love Me does not obey My teaching. The teaching you are now hearing is not My teaching but it is from My Father Who sent Me.

25 ` These things I have spoken to you, remaining with you,

“I have told you these things while I am still with you.

26 a nd 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.

The Helper is the Holy Spirit. The Father will send Him in My place. He will teach you everything and help you remember everything I have told you. Jesus Gives His Followers Peace

27 ` 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;

“Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give peace to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.

28 y e 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.

You heard Me say that I am going away. But I am coming back to you. If you love Me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father. The Father is greater than I.

29 ` And now I have said to you before it come to pass, that when it may come to pass, ye may believe;

I have told you this before it happens. Then when it does happen, you will believe.

30 I will no more talk much with you, for the ruler of this world doth come, and in me he hath nothing;

“I will not talk much more with you. The leader of this world is coming. He has no power over Me.

31 b ut 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.

I am doing what the Father told Me to do so the world may know I love the Father. Come, let us be on our way.
