John 14
WEB·John 14
1“Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
KJVLetG5015 notG3361 yourG5216 heartG2588 be troubledG5015(G5744): ye believeG4100(G5719)(G5720) inG1519 GodG2316, believeG4100(G5719)(G5720) alsoG2532 inG1519 meG1691.
2 In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.
KJVInG1722 myG3450 Father'sG3962 houseG3614 areG1526(G5748) manyG4183 mansionsG3438: if it were notG1490 so, I would have toldG302G2036(G5627) youG5213. I goG4198(G5736) to prepareG2090(G5658) a placeG5117 for youG5213.
3 If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.
KJVAndG2532 ifG1437 I goG4198(G5680) andG2532 prepareG2090(G5661) a placeG5117 for youG5213, I will comeG2064(G5736) againG3825, andG2532 receiveG3880(G5695) youG5209 untoG4314 myselfG1683; thatG2443 whereG3699 IG1473 amG1510(G5748), there yeG5210 may beG5600(G5753) alsoG2532.
4 You know where I go, and you know the way.”
KJVAndG2532 whitherG3699 IG1473 goG5217(G5719) ye knowG1492(G5758), andG2532 the wayG3598 ye knowG1492(G5758).
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
KJVThomasG2381 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, LordG2962, we knowG1492(G5758) notG3756 whitherG4226 thou goestG5217(G5719); andG2532 howG4459 can weG1410(G5736) knowG1492(G5760) the wayG3598?
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
KJVJesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, IG1473 amG1510(G5748) the wayG3598,G2532 the truthG225, andG2532 the lifeG2222: no manG3762 comethG2064(G5736) untoG4314 the FatherG3962, butG1508 byG1223 meG1700.
7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him and have seen him.”
KJVIfG1487 ye had knownG1097(G5715) meG3165,G302 ye should have knownG1097(G5715) myG3450 FatherG3962 alsoG2532: andG2532 fromG575 henceforthG737 ye knowG1097(G5719) himG846, andG2532 have seenG3708(G5758) himG846.
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
KJVPhilipG5376 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, LordG2962, shewG1166(G5657) usG2254 the FatherG3962, andG2532 it sufficethG714(G5719) usG2254.
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
KJVJesusG2424 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, Have I beenG1510(G5748) so longG5118 timeG5550 withG3326 youG5216, and yetG2532 hast thouG1097 notG3756 knownG1097(G5758) meG3165, PhilipG5376? he that hath seenG3708(G5761) meG1691 hath seenG3708(G5758) the FatherG3962; andG2532 howG4459 sayestG3004(G5719) thouG4771 then, ShewG1166(G5657) usG2254 the FatherG3962?
10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.
KJVBelievest thouG4100(G5719) notG3756 thatG3754 IG1473 amG2076(G5748) inG1722 the FatherG3962, andG2532 the FatherG3962 inG1722 meG1698? the wordsG4487 thatG3739 IG1473 speakG2980(G5719) unto youG5213 I speakG2980(G5719) notG3756 ofG575 myselfG1683: butG1161 the FatherG3962 that dwellethG3306(G5723) inG1722 meG1698, heG846 doethG4160(G5719) the worksG2041.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
KJVBelieveG4100(G5720) meG3427 thatG3754 IG1473 am inG1722 the FatherG3962, andG2532 the FatherG3962 inG1722 meG1698: or elseG1490 believeG4100(G5720) meG3427 forG1223 the veryG846 worksG2041' sakeG846.
12 Most certainly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.
KJVVerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004(G5719) unto youG5213, He that believethG4100(G5723) onG1519 meG1691, the worksG2041 thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160(G5719) shall he doG4160(G5692) alsoG2548; andG2532 greater works thanG3187 theseG5130 shall he doG4160(G5692); becauseG3754 IG1473 goG4198(G5736) untoG4314 myG3450 FatherG3962.
13 Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
KJVAndG3739G2532 whatsoeverG3748G302 ye shall askG154(G5661) inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, thatG5124 will I doG4160(G5692), thatG2443 the FatherG3962 may be glorifiedG1392(G5686) inG1722 the SonG5207.
14 If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
KJVIfG1437 ye shall askG154(G5661) any thingG5100 inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, IG1473 will doG4160(G5692) it.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
KJVIfG1437 ye loveG25(G5725) meG3165, keepG5083(G5657) myG1699 commandmentsG1785.
16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever:
KJVAndG2532 IG1473 will prayG2065(G5692) the FatherG3962, andG2532 he shall giveG1325(G5692) youG5213 anotherG243 ComforterG3875, thatG2443 he may abideG3306(G5725) withG3326 youG5216 forG1519 everG165;
17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive, for it doesn’t see him and doesn’t know him. You know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
KJVEven the SpiritG4151 of truthG225; whomG3739 the worldG2889 cannotG3756G1410(G5736) receiveG2983(G5629), becauseG3754 it seethG2334(G5719) himG846 notG3756, neitherG3761 knowethG1097(G5719) himG846: butG1161 yeG5210 knowG1097(G5719) himG846; forG3754 he dwellethG3306(G5719) withG3844 youG5213, andG2532 shall beG2071(G5704) inG1722 youG5213.
18 I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
KJVI willG863 notG3756 leaveG863(G5692) youG5209 comfortlessG3737: I will comeG2064(G5736) toG4314 youG5209.
19 Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.
KJVYetG2089 a little whileG3397, andG2532 the worldG2889 seethG2334(G5719) meG3165 no moreG3765; butG1161 yeG5210 seeG2334(G5719) meG3165: becauseG3754 IG1473 liveG2198(G5719), yeG5210 shall liveG2198(G5695) alsoG2532.
20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
KJVAtG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250 yeG5210 shall knowG1097(G5695) thatG3754 IG1473 am inG1722 myG3450 FatherG3962, andG2532 yeG5210 inG1722 meG1698, and IG2504 inG1722 youG5213.
21 One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”
KJVHe that hathG2192(G5723) myG3450 commandmentsG1785, andG2532 keepethG5083(G5723) themG846, heG1565 it isG2076(G5748) that lovethG25(G5723) meG3165: andG1161 he that lovethG25(G5723) meG3165 shall be lovedG25(G5701) ofG5259 myG3450 FatherG3962, andG2532 IG1473 will loveG25(G5692) himG846, andG2532 will manifestG1718(G5692) myselfG1683 to himG846.
22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”
KJVJudasG2455 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, notG3756 IscariotG2469, LordG2962, howG5101 is itG1096(G5754) thatG3754 thou wiltG3195(G5719) manifestG1718(G5721) thyselfG4572 unto usG2254, andG2532 notG3780 unto the worldG2889?
23 Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
KJVJesusG2424 answeredG611(G5662) andG2532 saidG2036(G5627) unto himG846, IfG1437 a manG5100 loveG25(G5725) meG3165, he will keepG5083(G5692) myG3450 wordsG3056: andG2532 myG3450 FatherG3962 will loveG25(G5692) himG846, andG2532 we will comeG2064(G5695) untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 makeG4160(G5692) our abodeG3438 withG3844 himG846.
24 He who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words. The word which you hear isn’t mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
KJVHe that lovethG25(G5723) meG3165 notG3361 keepethG5083(G5719) notG3756 myG3450 sayingsG3056: andG2532 the wordG3056 whichG3739 ye hearG191(G5719) isG2076(G5748) notG3756 mineG1699, butG235 the Father'sG3962 whichG3588 sentG3992(G5660) meG3165.
25 “I have said these things to you while still living with you.
KJVThese thingsG5023 have I spokenG2980(G5758) unto youG5213, being yet presentG3306(G5723) withG3844 youG5213.
26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
KJVButG1161 the ComforterG3875, which is the HolyG40 GhostG4151, whomG3739 the FatherG3962 will sendG3992(G5692) inG1722 myG3450 nameG3686, heG1565 shall teachG1321(G5692) youG5209 all thingsG3956, andG2532 bringG5279 all thingsG3956 toG5279 yourG5209 remembranceG5279(G5692), whatsoeverG3739 I have saidG2036(G5627) unto youG5213.
27 Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.
KJVPeaceG1515 I leaveG863(G5719) with youG5213, myG1699 peaceG1515 I giveG1325(G5719) unto youG5213: notG3756 asG2531 the worldG2889 givethG1325(G5719), giveG1325(G5719) IG1473 unto youG5213. LetG5015 notG3361 yourG5216 heartG2588 be troubledG5015(G5744), neitherG3366 let it be afraidG1168(G5720).
28 You heard how I told you, ‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I said ‘I am going to my Father;’ for the Father is greater than I.
KJVYe have heardG191(G5656) howG3754 IG1473 saidG2036(G5627) unto youG5213, I go awayG5217(G5719), andG2532 comeG2064(G5736) again untoG4314 youG5209. IfG1487 ye lovedG25(G5707) meG3165,G302 ye would rejoiceG5463(G5644), becauseG3754 I saidG2036(G5627), I goG4198(G5736) untoG4314 the FatherG3962: forG3754 myG3450 FatherG3962 isG2076(G5748) greater thanG3187 IG3450.
29 Now I have told you before it happens so that when it happens, you may believe.
KJVAndG2532 nowG3568 I have toldG2046(G5758) youG5213 beforeG4250 it come to passG1096(G5635), thatG2443, whenG3752 it is come to passG1096(G5638), ye might believeG4100(G5661).
30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
KJVHereafterG3765 I willG2980 notG3765 talkG2980(G5692) muchG4183 withG3326 youG5216: forG1063 the princeG758 of thisG5127 worldG2889 comethG2064(G5736), andG2532 hathG2192(G5719)G3756 nothingG3762 inG1722 meG1698.
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let’s go from here.
KJVButG235 thatG2443 the worldG2889 may knowG1097(G5632) thatG3754 I loveG25(G5719) the FatherG3962; andG2532 asG2531 the FatherG3962 gaveG1781 meG3427 commandmentG1781(G5662), even soG3779 I doG4160(G5719). AriseG1453(G5728), let us goG71(G5725) henceG1782.
