John 13:31-18:1

Wycliffe Bible

³¹ Therefore when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now man's Son is clarified, and God is clarified in him.

³² If God is clarified in him, and God shall clarify him in himself, and at once [and anon] he shall clarify him.

³³ Little sons, yet a little I am with you; ye shall seek me, and, as I said to the Jews, Whither I go, ye be not able to come [Whither I go, ye may not come]; and to you I say now.

³⁴ I give to you a new commandment, that ye love together, as I have loved you, and that ye love together [that ye love together, as I loved you, that and ye love together].

³⁵ In this thing all men shall know, that ye be my disciples, if ye have love together.

³⁶ Simon Peter saith to him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered, Whither I go, thou mayest not follow me now, but thou shalt follow me afterward.

³⁷ Peter saith to him, Why may I not follow thee now? I shall put my life for thee.

³⁸ Jesus answered, Thou shalt put thy life for me? Truly, truly, I say to thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou shalt deny me thrice.

³⁹ And he saith to his disciples,

14 Be not your heart afraid [Be not your heart distroubled], nor dread it; ye believe in God, and believe ye in me.

² In the house of my Father be many dwellings; if any thing less, I had said to you [if any thing less, I should have said to you], for I go to make ready to you a place.

³ And if I go, and make ready to you a place, again I come, and I shall take you to myself, that where I am, ye be.

⁴ And whither I go, ye know, and ye know the way.

⁵ Thomas saith to him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest, and how be we able to know the way [and how may we know the way]?

⁶ Jesus saith to him, I am way, truth, and life; no man cometh to the Father, but by me.

⁷ If ye had known me, soothly ye had known also my Father; and afterward ye shall know him, and ye have seen him.

⁸ Philip saith to him, Lord, show to us the Father, and it sufficeth to us.

⁹ Jesus saith to him, So long time I am with you, and have ye not known me? Philip, he that seeth me, seeth also the Father. How sayest thou, show to us the Father?

¹⁰ Believest thou not, that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you, I speak not of myself; but the Father himself that dwelleth in me, [he] doeth the works.

¹¹ Believe ye not, that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? Else believe ye for those works.

¹² Truly, truly, I say to you, if a man believeth in me [Truly, truly, I say to you, he that believeth in me], also he shall do the works that I do; and he shall do greater works than these, for I go to the Father.

¹³ And whatever thing ye [shall] ask the Father in my name, I shall do this thing, that the Father be glorified in the Son.

¹⁴ If ye [shall] ask any thing in my name, I shall do it.

¹⁵ If ye love me, keep ye my commandments.

¹⁶ And I shall pray the Father, and he shall give to you another comforter, the Spirit of truth, to dwell with you without end; [And I shall pray the Father, and he shall give to you another comforter, that he dwell with you into without end;]

¹⁷ which Spirit the world may not take [the Spirit of truth, which Spirit the world may not take], for it seeth him not, neither knoweth him. But ye shall know him, for he shall dwell with you, and he shall be in you.

¹⁸ I shall not leave you fatherless, I shall come to you.

¹⁹ Yet a little, and the world seeth not now me [Yet a little, and the world seeth not me now]; but ye shall see me, for I live, and ye shall live.

²⁰ In that day ye shall know, that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

²¹ He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me; and he that loveth me, shall be loved of my Father, and I shall love him, and I shall show to him myself.

²² Judas saith to him, not he of Iscariot, Lord, what is done, that thou shalt show thyself to us, and not to the world?

²³ Jesus answered, and said to him, If any man loveth me, he shall keep my word [he shall keep my words]; and my Father shall love him, and we shall come to him, and we shall dwell with him [and we shall make a dwelling at him].

²⁴ He that loveth me not, keepeth not my words; and the word which ye have heard, is not mine, but the Father's, that sent me.

²⁵ These things I have spoken to you, dwelling among you;

²⁶ but that Holy Ghost, the comforter, whom the Father shall send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and shall show to you all things, whatever things I shall say to you [he shall teach you all things, and shall show, or remember, to you all things, whatever I shall say to you].

²⁷ Peace I leave to you, my peace I give to you; not as the world giveth, I give to you; be not your heart afraid, nor dread it [be not your heart troubled, neither dread it].

²⁸ Ye have heard, that I said to you, I go, and come to you. If ye loved me, forsooth ye should have joy [If ye loved me, forsooth ye should joy], for I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.

²⁹ And now I have said to you, before that it be done [before it be done], that when it is done, ye believe.

³⁰ Now I shall not speak many things with you; for the prince of this world cometh, and hath not in me any thing [and he hath not any thing in me].

³¹ But that the world know, that I love the Father; and as the Father gave a commandment to me, so I do. Rise ye, go we hence.

15 I am a very vine, and my Father is an earth-tiller.

² Each branch in me that beareth not fruit, he shall take away it [he shall do it away]; and each that beareth fruit, he shall purge it, that it bear the more fruit [that it bear more fruit].

³ Now ye be clean, for the word that I have spoken to you.

⁴ Dwell ye in me, and I in you; as a branch may not make fruit of itself, but it dwell in the vine, so neither ye, but ye dwell in me.

⁵ I am the vine, ye be the branches. Who that dwelleth in me, and I in him, this beareth much fruit, for without me, ye be able to nothing do.^[a]

⁶ If any man dwelleth not in me, he shall be cast out as a branch, and shall wax dry; and they shall gather him, and they shall cast him into the fire, and he shall burn [and he burneth].

⁷ If ye dwell in me, and my words dwell in you, whatever thing ye will [whatever thing ye shall desire], ye shall ask, and it shall be done to you.

⁸ In this thing my Father is clarified, that ye bring forth full much fruit, and that ye be made my disciples.

⁹ As my Father loved me, I have loved you; dwell ye in my love.

¹⁰ If ye keep my commandments, ye shall dwell in my love; as I have kept the commandments of my Father, and dwell in his love.

¹¹ These things I spake to you, that my joy be in you, and your joy be full-filled [and your joy be filled].

¹² This is my commandment, that ye love together, as I have loved you.

¹³ No man hath more love than this, that a man put his life for his friends.

¹⁴ Ye be my friends if ye do those things, that I command to you.

¹⁵ Now I shall not call you servants, for the servant knoweth not, what his lord shall do; but I have called you friends, for all things whatever I heard of my Father, I have made known to you.

¹⁶ Ye have not chosen me, but I chose you; and I have put you [and put you], that ye go, and bring forth fruit, and your fruit dwell; that whatever thing ye [shall] ask the Father in my name, he give to you.

¹⁷ These things I command to you, that ye love together.

¹⁸ If the world hate you, know ye, that it had me in hate rather than you [know ye, for it had me in hate first than you].

¹⁹ If ye had been of the world, the world should love that thing that was his; but for ye be not of the world, but I chose you from the world, therefore the world hateth you.

²⁰ Have ye mind of my word, which I said to you [that I said to you], The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have pursued me, they shall pursue you also; if they have kept my word, they shall keep yours also.

²¹ But they shall do to you all these things for my name, for they know not him that sent me.

²² If I had not come, and had not spoken to them, they should not have sin; but now they have none excusation of their sin [forsooth now they have not excusing of their sin].

²³ He that hateth me, hateth also my Father.

²⁴ If I had not done the works in them, which none other man did, they should not have sin; but now both they have seen, and hated/have hated me and my Father.

²⁵ But that the word be fulfilled, that is written in their law, For they had me in hate without cause.

²⁶ But when the comforter shall come, which I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, which cometh forth of the Father [which proceedeth, or cometh forth, of the Father], he shall bear witnessing of me;

²⁷ and ye shall bear witnessing, for ye be with me from the beginning.

16 These things I have spoken to you, that ye be not caused to stumble [that ye be not offended].

² They shall make you without the synagogues, but the hour cometh, that each man that slayeth you, deem that he doeth service to God.

³ And they shall do to you these things, for they have not known the Father, neither me.

⁴ But these things I spake to you, that when the hour of them shall come, ye have mind, that I said to you. I said not to you these things from the beginning, for I was with you.

⁵ And now I go to him that sent me, and no man of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

⁶ but for I have spoken to you these things, heaviness hath full-filled your heart [sorrow, or heaviness, hath full-filled your heart].

⁷ But I say to you truth, it speedeth to you, that I go; for if I go not forth [soothly if I shall not go away], the comforter shall not come to you; but if I go forth [forsooth if I shall go away], I shall send him to you.

⁸ And when he cometh [And when he shall come], he shall reprove the world of sin, and of rightwiseness, and of doom.

⁹ Of sin, for they have not believed in me;

¹⁰ and of rightwiseness, for I go to the Father, and now ye shall not see me;

¹¹ but of doom, for the prince of this world is now deemed.

¹² Yet I have many things to say to you, but ye be not able to bear them now.

¹³ But when the Spirit of truth cometh [shall come], he shall teach you all truth; for he shall not speak of himself, but whatever things he shall hear, he shall speak; and he shall tell to you those things [and he shall tell to you the things] that be to come.

¹⁴ He shall clarify me, for of mine he shall take, and shall tell to you.

¹⁵ All things, whatever [things] the Father hath, be mine; therefore I said to you, that of mine he shall take, and shall tell to you.

¹⁶ A little, and then ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me, for I go to the Father.

¹⁷ Therefore some of his disciples said together, What is this thing that he saith to us, A little, and ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me, for I go to the Father?

¹⁸ Therefore they said, What is this that he saith to us, A little? we know not what he speaketh.

¹⁹ And Jesus knew, that they would ask him, and he said to them, Of this thing ye seek among you, for I said, A little, and ye shall not see me; and again a little, and ye shall see me.

²⁰ Truly, truly, I say to you, that ye shall mourn and weep, but the world shall have joy; and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall turn into joy.

²¹ A woman when she beareth child, hath heaviness [hath sorrow, or heaviness], for her time is come; but when she hath born a son, now she thinketh not on the pain, for joy, for a man is born into the world.

²² And therefore ye have now sorrow, but again I shall see you, and your heart shall have joy, and no man shall take from you your joy.

²³ And in that day ye shall not ask me any thing; truly, truly, I say to you, if ye ask the Father any thing in my name, he shall give [it] to you.

²⁴ Till now ye asked nothing in my name; ask ye, and ye shall take, that your joy be full.

²⁵ I have spoken to you these things in proverbs; the hour cometh, when now I shall not speak to you in proverbs, but openly of my Father I shall tell to you [I shall tell you].

²⁶ In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I say not to you, that I shall pray the Father for you;

²⁷ for the Father himself loveth you, for ye have loved me, and have believed, that I went out from God.

²⁸ I went out from the Father, and I came into the world; again I leave the world, and go to the Father.

²⁹ His disciples said to him, Lo! now thou speakest openly, and thou sayest no proverb.

³⁰ Now we know, that thou knowest all things; and it is not need to thee [and it is no need to thee], that any man ask thee. In this thing we believe, that thou wentest out from God.

³¹ Jesus answered to them, Now ye believe.

³² Lo! the hour cometh, and now it cometh, that ye be scattered, each into his own things, and that ye leave me alone; and I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

³³ These things I have spoken to you, that ye have peace in me; in the world ye shall have dis-ease [in the world ye shall have pressing, or overlaying], but trust ye, I have overcome the world.

17 These things Jesus spake, and when he had cast up his eyes into heaven [and the eyes lifted up to heaven], he said, Father, the hour cometh, clarify thy Son, that thy Son clarify thee.

² As thou hast given to him power on each flesh, that all thing that thou hast given to him, he give to them everlasting life.

³ And this is everlasting life, that they know thee very God alone [that they know thee alone very God], and whom thou hast sent, Jesus Christ.

⁴ I have clarified thee on the earth, I have ended the work, that thou hast given to me to do.

⁵ And now, Father, clarify thou me at thyself, with the clearness that I had at thee, before the world was made.

⁶ I have showed thy name to those men, which thou hast given to me of the world [I have showed thy name to the men, whom thou hast given to me of the world]; they were thine, and thou hast given them to me, and they have kept thy word.

⁷ And now they have known, that all things that thou hast given to me, be of thee.

⁸ For the words that thou hast given to me, I gave to them; and they have taken, and have known verily, that I went out from thee; and they believed, that thou sentest me.

⁹ I pray for them, I pray not for the world, but for them that thou hast given to me, for they be thine.

¹⁰ And all my things be thine, and thy things be mine [And all mine things be thine, and thine things be mine]; and I am clarified in them.

¹¹ And now I am not in the world, and these be in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name, which thou hast given to me [whom thou hast given to me], that they be one, as we be.

¹² While I was with them, I kept them in thy name; those that thou gavest to me, I kept, and none of them perished, but the son of perdition, that the scripture be fulfilled.

¹³ But now I come to thee, and I speak these things in the world [and these things I speak in the world], that they have my joy fulfilled in themselves.

¹⁴ I gave to them thy word, and the world had them in hate; for they be not of the world, as I am not of the world.

¹⁵ I pray not, that thou take them away from the world, but that thou keep them from evil.

¹⁶ They be not of the world, as I am not of the world.

¹⁷ Hallow thou them in truth; thy word is truth.

¹⁸ As thou sentest me into the world, also I sent them into the world.

¹⁹ And I hallow myself for them, that also they be hallowed in truth.

²⁰ And I pray not only for them, but also for them that shall believe into me by the word of them;

²¹ that all be one [that all they be one], as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee, that also they in us be one; that the world believe, that thou hast sent me.

²² And I have given to them the clearness, that thou hast given to me, that they be one, as we be one;

²³ I in them, and thou in me, that they be ended into one; and that the world know, that thou sentest me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved also me.

²⁴ Father, they which thou hast given to me, I will that where I am, that they be with me, that they see my clearness, that thou hast given to me [Father, I will that and they whom thou hast given to me, be with me where I am, that they see my clearness, which thou hast given to me]; for thou lovedest me before the making of the world.

²⁵ Father, rightfully the world knew thee not [Rightful Father, the world knew not thee], but I knew thee, and these knew, that thou sentest me.

²⁶ And I have made thy name known to them, and shall make known; that the love by which thou hast loved me, be in them, and I in them.

18 When Jesus had said these things, he went out with his disciples over the strand of Cedron, where was a yard, or a garden, into which he entered, and his disciples.
