1 ^d“Let not your hearts be troubled. ^eBelieve in God;¹ believe also in me. 2 In ^fmy Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that ^gI go to prepare a place for you?² 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you ^hto myself, that ⁱwhere I am you may be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.”³ 5 ^jThomas said to him, “Lord, ^kwe do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am ^lthe way, and ^mthe truth, and ⁿthe life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 ^oIf you had known me, you would have ^pknown my Father also.⁴ From now on you do know him and ^qhave seen him.”

8 ^rPhilip said to him, “Lord, ^sshow us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? ^tWhoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that ^uI am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you ^vI do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that ^uI am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else ^wbelieve on account of the works themselves.

12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, ^xwhoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I ^yam going to the Father. 13 ^zWhatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that ^athe Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 ^zIf you ask me⁵ anything in my name, I will do it.

15 ^b“If you love me, you will ^ckeep my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another ^dHelper,⁶ to be with you forever, 17 even ^ethe Spirit of truth, ^fwhom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and ^gwill be⁷ in you.

18 “I will not leave you as orphans; ^hI will come to you. 19 ⁱYet a little while and the world will see me no more, but ^jyou will see me. ^kBecause I live, you also will live. 20 ^lIn that day you will know that ^mI am in my Father, and ⁿyou in me, and ^oI in you. 21 ^pWhoever has my commandments and ^qkeeps them, he it is who loves me. And ^rhe who loves me ^swill be loved by my Father, and I will love him and ^tmanifest myself to him.” 22 ^uJudas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it ^vthat you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered him, ^w“If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and ^xwe will come to him and ^ymake our home with him. 24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And ^zthe word that you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me.

25 “These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. 26 But the ^aHelper, the Holy Spirit, ^bwhom the Father will send in my name, ^che will teach you all things and ^dbring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. 27 ^ePeace I leave with you; ^fmy peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. ^gLet not your hearts be troubled, neither ^hlet them be afraid. 28 ⁱYou heard me say to you, ^j‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I ^kam going to the Father, for ^lthe Father is greater than I. 29 And ^mnow I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for ⁿthe ruler of this world is coming. ^oHe has no claim on me, 31 but I do ^pas the Father has commanded me, ^qso that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.

1 “I am the ^rtrue vine, and my Father is ^sthe vinedresser. 2 ^tEvery branch in me that does not bear fruit ^uhe takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, ^vthat it may bear more fruit. 3 Already ^wyou are clean ^xbecause of the word that I have spoken to you. 4 ^yAbide ^zin me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; ^ayou are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that ^bbears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me ^che is thrown away like a branch and withers; ^dand the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7 If ^eyou abide in me, and my words abide in you, ^fask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 ^gBy this my Father is glorified, that you ^hbear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. 9 ⁱAs the Father has loved me, ^jso have I loved you. Abide in my love. 10 ^kIf you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as ^lI have kept ^mmy Father’s commandments and abide in his love. 11 These things I have spoken to you, ⁿthat my joy may be in you, and that ^oyour joy may be full.

12 ^p“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 ^qGreater love has no one than this, ^rthat someone lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are ^smy friends ^tif you do what I command you. 15 ^uNo longer do I call you servants,⁸ for the servant ^wdoes not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for ^xall that I have heard from my Father ^yI have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, but ^zI chose you and appointed you that you should go and ^abear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that ^bwhatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. 17 These things I command you, ^cso that you will love one another.

18 ^d“If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. 19 ^eIf you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because ^fyou are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said to you: ^g‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, ^hthey will also persecute you. ⁱIf they kept my word, they will also keep yours. 21 But ^jall these things they will do to you ^kon account of my name, ^lbecause they do not know him who sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken to them, ^mthey would not have been guilty of sin,⁹ but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 ⁿWhoever hates me hates my Father also. 24 ^oIf I had not done among them the works that no one else did, ^mthey would not be guilty of sin, but now they have ^pseen and hated both me and my Father. 25 But ^qthe word that is written in their Law must be fulfilled: ^r‘They hated me without a cause.’

26 “But ^swhen the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, ^the will bear witness about me. 27 And ^uyou also will bear witness, ^vbecause you have been with me ^wfrom the beginning.

1 “I have said all these things to you to keep you from falling away. 2 ^xThey will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, ^ythe hour is coming when ^zwhoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. 3 And they will do these things ^abecause they have not known the Father, nor me. 4 But ^bI have said these things to you, that when ^ctheir hour comes you may remember that I told them to you.

“I did not say these things to you from the beginning, ^dbecause I was with you. 5 But now ^eI am going to him who sent me, and ^fnone of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, ^gsorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for ^hif I do not go away, ⁱthe Helper will not come to you. But ^jif ^kI go, ^lI will send him to you. 8 ^mAnd when he comes, he will ⁿconvict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 concerning sin, ^obecause they do not believe in me; 10 ^pconcerning righteousness, ^qbecause I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 ^rconcerning judgment, because the ruler of this world ^sis judged.

12 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 When ^tthe Spirit of truth comes, ^uhe will ^vguide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but ^wwhatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will ^xglorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. 15 ^yAll that the Father has is mine; ^ztherefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.

16 ^a“A little while, and you will see me no longer; and ^bagain a little while, and you will see me.” 17 So ^csome of his disciples said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ^d‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’; and, ^e‘because I am going to the Father’?” 18 So they were saying, “What does he mean by ‘a little while’? ^fWe do not know what he is talking about.” 19 ^gJesus knew that they wanted to ask him, so he said to them, “Is this what you are asking yourselves, what I meant by saying, ‘A little while and you will not see me, and again a little while and you will see me’? 20 Truly, truly, I say to you, ^hyou will weep and lament, but ⁱthe world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but ^jyour sorrow will turn into joy. 21 ^kWhen a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. 22 ^lSo also you have sorrow now, but ^mI will see you again, and ⁿyour hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. 23 ^oIn that day you will ^pask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, ^qwhatever you ask of the Father in my name, ^rhe will give it to you. 24 Until now you have asked nothing in my name. ^sAsk, and you will receive, ^tthat your joy may be full.

25 “I have said these things to you in figures of speech. ^uThe hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech but will tell you plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf; 27 ^vfor the Father himself loves you, because ^wyou have loved me and ^xhave believed that I came from God.¹⁰ 28 ^yI came from the Father and have come into the world, and now ^zI am leaving the world and going to the Father.”

29 His disciples said, “Ah, now you are speaking plainly and not ^ausing figurative speech! 30 Now we know that ^byou know all things and do not need anyone to question you; this is why we believe that ^cyou came from God.” 31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe? 32 Behold, ^dthe hour is coming, indeed it has come, when ^eyou will be scattered, each to his own home, and ^fwill leave me alone. ^gYet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. 33 I have said these things to you, that ^hin me you may have peace. ⁱIn the world you will have ^jtribulation. But ^ktake heart; ^lI have overcome the world.”

1 When Jesus had spoken these words, ^mhe lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father, ⁿthe hour has come; ^oglorify your Son that the Son may ^pglorify you, 2 since ^qyou have given him authority over all flesh, ^rto give eternal life to all ^swhom you have given him. 3 ^tAnd this is eternal life, ^uthat they know you, ^vthe only ^wtrue God, and ^xJesus Christ whom you have sent. 4 I ^yglorified you on earth, ^zhaving accomplished the work that you gave me to do. 5 And now, Father, ^aglorify me in your own presence with the glory ^bthat I had with you ^cbefore the world existed.

6 ^d“I have manifested your name to the people ^ewhom you gave me out of the world. ^fYours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. 7 Now they know that everything ^fthat you have given me is from you. 8 For I have given them ^gthe words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that ^hI came from you; and ⁱthey have believed that you sent me. 9 I am praying for them. ^jI am not praying for the world but for those ^kwhom you have given me, for ^lthey are yours. 10 ^mAll mine are yours, and yours are mine, and ⁿI am glorified in them. 11 And I am no longer in the world, but ^othey are in the world, and ^pI am coming to you. ^qHoly Father, ^rkeep them in your name, ^swhich you have given me, ^tthat they may be one, ^ueven as we are one. 12 ^vWhile I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have ^wguarded them, and ^xnot one of them has been lost except ^ythe son of destruction, ^zthat the Scripture might be fulfilled. 13 But now ^aI am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have ^bmy joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 ^cI have given them your word, and ^dthe world has hated them ^ebecause they are not of the world, ^fjust as I am not of the world. 15 I ^gdo not ask that you ^htake them out of the world, but that you ⁱkeep them from ^jthe evil one.¹¹ 16 ^kThey are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 17 ^lSanctify them¹² in the truth; ^myour word is truth. 18 ⁿAs you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. 19 And ^ofor their sake ^pI consecrate myself,¹³ that they also ^qmay be sanctified¹⁴ in truth.

20 “I do not ^rask for these only, but also for those ^swho will believe in me through their word, 21 ^tthat they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that ^uthey also may be in ^vus, so that the world ^wmay believe that you have sent me. 22 ^xThe glory that you have given me ^yI have given to them, ^tthat they may be one even as we are one, 23 ^zI in them and you in me, ^athat they may become perfectly one, ^bso that the world may know that you sent me and ^cloved them even as ^dyou loved me. 24 Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be ^ewith me ^fwhere I am, ^gto see my glory that you have given me because you loved me ^hbefore the foundation of the world. 25 ⁱO righteous Father, even though ^jthe world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. 26 ^kI made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love ^lwith which you have loved me may be in them, and ^mI in them.”
