⁶ Jesus answered, “I am^(A) the way^(B) and the truth^(C) and the life.^(D) No one comes to the Father except through me.^{(E) 7} If you really know me, you will know^[a] my Father as well.^(F) From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”

⁸ Philip^(G) said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”

⁹ Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.^(H) How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? ¹⁰ Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me?^(I) The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority.^(J) Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. ¹¹ Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.^{(K) 12} Very truly I tell you, whoever believes^(L) in me will do the works I have been doing,^(M) and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. ¹³ And I will do whatever you ask^(N) in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. ¹⁴ You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit

¹⁵ “If you love me, keep my commands.^{(O) 16} And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate^(P) to help you and be with you forever— ¹⁷ the Spirit of truth.^(Q) The world cannot accept him,^(R) because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be^[b] in you. ¹⁸ I will not leave you as orphans;^(S) I will come to you.^{(T) 19} Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me.^(U) Because I live, you also will live.^{(V) 20} On that day^(W) you will realize that I am in my Father,^(X) and you are in me, and I am in you.^{(Y) 21} Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me.^(Z) The one who loves me will be loved by my Father,^(AA) and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
