Jesus Comforts His Disciples

14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled.^(A) You believe^(B) in God^[a];^(C) believe also in me.

²⁴ Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”

²⁹ Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe^(A) in the one he has sent.”^(B)

⁴⁰ For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son^(A) and believes in him shall have eternal life,^(B) and I will raise them up at the last day.”

⁴⁴ Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me.^(A)

²⁴ For in this hope we were saved.^(A) But hope that is seen is no hope at all.^(B) Who hopes for what they already have? ²⁵ But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.^(C)

²⁶ In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit^(D) himself intercedes for us^(E) through wordless groans.
