Juan 14
Palabra de Dios para Todos
Jesús consuela a sus seguidores
14 »No se preocupen; confíen en Dios y confíen también en mí. 2 Hay muchos lugares en la casa de mi Padre. Si no fuera así, se lo diría. Voy a prepararles un lugar, 3 y si voy y preparo un lugar para ustedes, regresaré. Los llevaré conmigo para que estén donde estoy yo. 4 Ustedes saben el camino para ir a donde yo voy.
5 Tomás le dijo:
—Señor, nosotros no sabemos a dónde vas, ¿cómo vamos a saber el camino?
6 Jesús le dijo:
—Yo soy el camino, la verdad y la vida. Solamente por mí se llega al Padre. 7 Si ustedes me conocieran, también conocerían al Padre. Ya lo conocen y lo han visto.
8 Felipe le dijo:
—Señor, todo lo que pedimos es que nos muestres al Padre.
9 Jesús le dijo:
—He estado con ustedes mucho tiempo, ¿y todavía no me conoces, Felipe? El que me ha visto a mí, ha visto al Padre. ¿Por qué pides que les muestre al Padre? 10 ¿Cierto que tú crees que yo estoy en el Padre y que el Padre está en mí? Lo que yo les digo no lo digo por mi propia cuenta. El Padre que está en mí hace sus propias obras. 11 Créanme cuando les digo que yo estoy en el Padre y que el Padre está en mí; o por lo menos créanme por las obras mismas. 12 Les digo la verdad: el que cree en mí también va a hacer las obras que yo hago. Y hará obras más grandes porque yo regreso al Padre. 13 Todo lo que ustedes pidan en mi nombre, lo haré. Así la grandeza del Padre se mostrará a través del Hijo. 14 Yo haré lo que pidan en mi nombre.
La promesa del Espíritu Santo
15 »Si me aman, obedecerán mis mandamientos. 16 Le pediré al Padre y les dará otro Consejero[a] para que esté siempre con ustedes: 17 El Consejero es el Espíritu de la verdad.[b] El mundo no lo puede recibir porque no lo ve ni lo conoce. Ustedes lo conocen porque vive con ustedes y estará en ustedes.
18 »No los dejaré huérfanos; volveré a ustedes. 19 Dentro de poco, el mundo no me verá más, pero ustedes me verán. Ustedes vivirán porque yo vivo. 20 Ese día, ustedes sabrán que yo estoy en el Padre, y que ustedes están en mí y yo en ustedes. 21 El que realmente me ama conoce mis mandamientos y los obedece. Mi Padre amará al que me ame, y yo también lo amaré y me mostraré a él.
22 Judas, no Judas Iscariote, le dijo:
—Señor, ¿por qué te vas a mostrar a nosotros y no al mundo?
23 Jesús le contestó:
—El que me ama, obedecerá mis enseñanzas. Mi Padre lo amará, vendré a él y viviremos con él. 24 El que no me ama, no obedecerá mis enseñanzas. Las enseñanzas que ustedes han escuchado no son mías, son del Padre que me envió.
25 »Les digo esto mientras estoy con ustedes. 26 Pero el Consejero, el Espíritu Santo que el Padre enviará en mi nombre, les enseñará y recordará todo lo que les dije.
27 »Les dejo la paz. Es mi propia paz la que les doy, pero no se la doy como la da el mundo. No se preocupen ni tengan miedo. 28 Me escucharon decir que me voy y que volveré a ustedes. Si de verdad me amaran, se habrían alegrado de que regreso al Padre, pues él es más importante que yo. 29 Así que les digo esto ahora, para que cuando suceda, ustedes crean.
30 »No estaré hablando mucho tiempo con ustedes porque viene el que manda en este mundo. Él no tiene ningún poder sobre mí, 31 pero el mundo debe saber que amo a mi Padre y que hago lo que mi Padre me ordenó hacer.
»¡Levántense, vámonos de aquí!
John 14
Modern English Version
Jesus the Way to the Father
14 “Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, you may be also. 4 You know where I am going, and you know the way.”
5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going. How can we know the way?”
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 7 If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.”
8 Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that is sufficient for us.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father. So how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own authority. But the Father who lives in Me does the works. 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me. Or else believe Me on account of the works themselves. 12 Truly, truly I say to you, he who believes in Me will do the works that I do also. And he will do greater works than these, because I am going to My Father. 13 I will do whatever you ask in My name, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.
The Promise of the Spirit
15 “If you love Me, keep My commandments. 16 I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Counselor, that He may be with you forever: 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, for it does not see Him, neither does it know Him. But you know Him, for He lives with you, and will be in you. 18 I will not leave you fatherless. I will come to you. 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. 20 On that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you. 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father. And I will love him and will reveal Myself to him.”
22 Then Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will reveal Yourself to us, but not to the world?”
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. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words. The word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.
25 “I have spoken these things to you while I am still with you. 26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you. 27 Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
28 “You have heard Me say to you, ‘I am going away and am returning to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ for My Father is greater than I. 29 Now I have told you before it happens so that, when it happens, you may believe. 30 After this I will not speak much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over Me. 31 But I do as the Father has commanded Me so that the world may know that I love the Father.
“Rise, let us go from here.
John 14
New International Version
Jesus Comforts His Disciples
14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled.(A) You believe(B) in God[a];(C) believe also in me. 2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there(D) to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back(E) and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.(F) 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Jesus the Way to the Father
5 Thomas(G) said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus answered, “I am(H) the way(I) and the truth(J) and the life.(K) No one comes to the Father except through me.(L) 7 If you really know me, you will know[b] my Father as well.(M) From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
8 Philip(N) 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.(O) 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?(P) The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority.(Q) 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.(R) 12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes(S) in me will do the works I have been doing,(T) and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask(U) 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.(V) 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate(W) to help you and be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth.(X) The world cannot accept him,(Y) because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[c] in you. 18 I will not leave you as orphans;(Z) I will come to you.(AA) 19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me.(AB) Because I live, you also will live.(AC) 20 On that day(AD) you will realize that I am in my Father,(AE) and you are in me, and I am in you.(AF) 21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me.(AG) The one who loves me will be loved by my Father,(AH) and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
22 Then Judas(AI) (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?”(AJ)
23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching.(AK) My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.(AL) 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.(AM)
25 “All this I have spoken while still with you. 26 But the Advocate,(AN) the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name,(AO) will teach you all things(AP) and will remind you of everything I have said to you.(AQ) 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.(AR) I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled(AS) and do not be afraid.
28 “You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’(AT) If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father,(AU) for the Father is greater than I.(AV) 29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe.(AW) 30 I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world(AX) is coming. He has no hold over me, 31 but he comes so that the world may learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me.(AY)
“Come now; let us leave.
