约翰福音 14
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
耶稣是道路真理生命
14 “你们心里不要难过,你们应当信 神,也应当信我。 2 在我父的家里,有许多住的地方;如果没有,我怎么会告诉你们我去是要为你们预备地方呢?(下半节或译:“如果没有,我早就对你们说了,因为我去是为你们预备地方。”) 3 我若去为你们预备地方,就必再来接你们到我那里去,好使我在哪里,你们也在哪里。 4 我去的地方,你们知道那条路。” 5 多马说:“主啊,我们不知道你去的地方,怎能知道那条路呢?” 6 耶稣对他说:“我就是道路、真理、生命,如果不是借着我,没有人能到父那里去。 7 如果你们认识我,就必认识我的父;从今以后,你们认识他,并且看见了他。” 8 腓力说:“主啊,请把父显示给我们,我们就满足了。” 9 耶稣说:“腓力,我跟你们在一起这么久了,你还不认识我吗?那看见了我的就是看见了父,你怎么还说‘把父显示给我们’呢? 10 你不信我是在父里面,父是在我里面吗?我对你们说的话,不是凭着自己说的,而是住在我里面的父作他自己的事。 11 你们应当信我是在父里面,父是在我里面;不然,也要因我所作的而相信。 12 我实实在在告诉你们,我所作的事,信我的人也要作,并且要作比这些更大的,因为我往父那里去。 13 你们奉我的名无论求甚么,我必定成全,使父在子的身上得着荣耀。 14 你们若奉我的名向我求甚么,我必定成全。
耶稣求父赐下保惠师
15 “如果你们爱我,就要遵守我的命令。 16 我要请求父,他就会赐给你们另一位保惠师,使他跟你们永远在一起。 17 这保惠师就是真理的灵,世人不能接受他,因为看不见他,也不认识他。你们却认识他,因为他跟你们住在一起,也要在你们里面。 18 我不会撇下你们为孤儿,我要回到你们这里来。 19 不久以后,世人不再看见我,你们却要看见我,因为我活着,你们也要活着。 20 到那日,你们就知道我是在我父里面,你们是在我里面,我也在你们里面。 21 那领受我的命令,并且遵守的,就是爱我的;爱我的,我父必定爱他,我也要爱他,并且要亲自向他显现。” 22 犹大(不是加略人犹大)对耶稣说:“主啊,你为甚么要亲自向我们显现,不向世人显现呢?” 23 耶稣回答:“人若爱我,就要遵守我的话,我父必定爱他,并且我们要到他那里去,跟他住在一起。 24 不爱我的,就不会遵守我的话。你们所听见的道,不是我的,而是那差我来的父的道。
25 “我还跟你们在一起的时候,就对你们讲了这些事。 26 但保惠师,就是父因我的名要差来的圣灵,他要把一切事教导你们,也要使你们想起我对你们所说过的一切话。 27 我留下平安给你们,我把自己的平安赐给你们;我给你们的,不像世界所给的。你们心里不要难过,也不要恐惧。 28 你们听见我对你们说过:‘我去,但还要回到你们这里来。’你们若爱我,就要喜乐,因为我到父那里去,又因为父是比我大的。 29 现在事情还没有发生,我就已经告诉你们,使你们在事情发生的时候可以相信。 30 我不会再跟你们讲很多的事,因为这世界的统治者将到;他在我身上毫无作用, 31 但这些事是要使世人知道我爱父,并且知道父怎样吩咐了我,我就怎样作。起来,我们走吧!”
John 14
Contemporary English Version
Jesus Is the Way to the Father
14 Jesus said to his disciples, “Don't be worried! Have faith in God and have faith in me.[a] 2 There are many rooms in my Father's house. I wouldn't tell you this, unless it was true. I am going there to prepare a place for each of you. 3 After I have done this, I will come back and take you with me. Then we will be together. 4 You know the way to where I am going.”
5 Thomas said, “Lord, we don't even know where you are going! How can we know the way?”
6 (A) “I am the way, the truth, and the life!” Jesus answered. “Without me, no one can go to the Father. 7 If you had really known me, you would have known the Father. But from now on, you do know him, and you have seen him.”
8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father. That is all we need.”
9 Jesus replied:
Philip, I have been with you for a long time. Don't you know who I am? If you have seen me, you have seen the Father. How can you ask me to show you the Father? 10 Don't you believe that I am one with the Father and that the Father is one with me? What I say isn't said on my own. The Father who lives in me does these things.
11 Have faith in me when I say that the Father is one with me and that I am one with the Father. Or else have faith in me simply because of the things I do. 12 I tell you for certain that if you have faith in me, you will do the same things I am doing. You will do even greater things, now that I am going back to the Father. 13 Ask me, and I will do whatever you ask. This way the Son will bring honor to the Father. 14 I will do whatever you ask me to do.
The Holy Spirit Is Promised
15 (B) Jesus said to his disciples:
If you love me, you will do as I command. 16 Then I will ask the Father to send you the Holy Spirit who will help[b] you and always be with you. 17 The Spirit will show you what is true. The people of this world cannot accept the Spirit, because they don't see or know him. But you know the Spirit, who is with you and will keep on living in you.
18 I won't leave you like orphans. I will come back to you. 19 In a little while the people of this world won't be able to see me, but you will see me. And because I live, you will live. 20 Then you will know I am one with the Father. You will know you are one with me, and I am one with you. 21 (C) If you love me, you will do what I have said, and my Father will love you. I will also love you and show you what I am like.
22 The other Judas, not Judas Iscariot,[c] then spoke up and asked, “Lord, what do you mean by saying that you will show us what you are like, but you will not show the people of this world?”
23 Jesus replied:
If anyone loves me, they will obey me. Then my Father will love them, and we will come to them and live in them. 24 But anyone who doesn't love me, won't obey me. What they have heard me say doesn't really come from me, but from the Father who sent me.
25 I have told you these things while I am still with you. 26 But the Holy Spirit will come and help[d] you, because the Father will send the Spirit to take my place. The Spirit will teach you everything and will remind you of what I said while I was with you.
27 I give you peace, the kind of peace only I can give. It isn't like the peace this world can give. So don't be worried or afraid.
28 You have already heard me say I am going and I will also come back to you. If you really love me, you should be glad I am going back to the Father, because he is greater than I am.
29 I am telling you this before I leave, so when it does happen, you will have faith in me. 30 I cannot speak with you much longer, because the ruler of this world is coming. But he has no power over me. 31 I obey my Father, so everyone in the world might know that I love him.
It is time for us to go now.
