2 Istwa 21-22
Haitian Creole Version
21 ¶ Jozafa mouri, yo antere l' nan tonm wa yo, nan lavil David la. Se pitit li, Joram, ki moute sou fotèy la nan plas li.
2 Joram, pitit Jozafa, wa peyi Jida a, te gen sis frè: Azarya, Jeyèl, Zakari, Azaryawou, Mikayèk ak Chefatyawou.
3 Papa yo te ba yo chak yon kantite lò, ajan, ak tout kalite lòt bagay ki gen valè. Li mete yo chèf nan gwo lavil ki gen miray ranpa nan peyi Jida a. Men li te mete Joram wa nan plas li, paske Joram te premye pitit gason l'.
4 Lè Joram moute wa nan plas papa l', li chita otorite l' byen chita nan peyi a. Lèfini, li fè touye tout frè l' yo ansanm ak kèk gwo chèf pèp Izrayèl la.
5 Joram te gen tranndezan lè li moute wa. Li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan witan.
6 Li fè tankou wa Akab ak lòt wa peyi Izrayèl yo te fè. Li te marye ak yon pitit fi Akab, li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a.
7 Men Seyè a pa t' vle detwi fanmi David la, paske li te pase kontra ak David. Li te pwomèt David li t'ap toujou gen yon moun nan ras li pou gouvènen peyi a devan Seyè a.
8 Sou rèy wa Joram, moun peyi Edon yo pran lèzam kont moun peyi Jida yo. Yo pran libète granmoun yo, yo nonmen yon wa pou gouvènen yo.
9 Se konsa Joram soti ak tout chèf li yo ak tout cha lagè li yo, li mache sou yo. Lame moun Edon yo sènen l'. Pandan lannwit, Joram ak chèf cha lagè li yo leve, yo atake moun Edon yo, yo pase soti nan mitan yo, yo chape kò yo.
10 Se depi lè sa a, peyi Edon soti anba otorite peyi Jida a. Yo granmoun lakay yo. Se menm lè sa a tou, moun lavil Libna yo soti anba otorite peyi Jida a, paske Joram te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye zansèt yo a.
11 Li te menm rive fè bati tanp pou sèvi zidòl nan mòn peyi Jida yo. Li lakòz moun lavil Jerizalèm yo vire do bay Bondye. Li fè peyi Jida a pèdi wout li.
12 ¶ Se konsa Joram resevwa yon lèt pwofèt Eli te voye ba li. Nan lèt la pwofèt la di: -Men sa Seyè a, Bondye David, zansèt w'a a, voye di ou: Ou pa swiv egzanp Jozafa, papa ou, ni egzanp Asa, granpapa ou.
13 Ou te pito swiv egzanp wa peyi Izrayèl yo. Ou lakòz peyi Jida a ak tout moun lavil Jerizalèm yo vire do bay Bondye tankou moun fanmi Akab yo te fè l' la. Ou menm rive touye frè ou yo, pwòp pitit papa ou yo, ki te pi bon pase ou.
14 Se poutèt sa, Seyè a pral voye yon gwo malè sou pèp la, sou pitit ou yo, sou madanm ou yo ak sou tou sa ou genyen.
15 Ou menm pou tèt pa ou, ou pral malad anpil. Ou pral gen yon sèl maladi vant ki pral fè ou soufri jouk trip ou va soti.
16 Lè sa a, te gen kèk moun Filisti ak moun Arabi ki t'ap viv toupre ak moun Letiopi yo. Seyè a fè yo vin atake Joram.
17 Yo anvayi peyi Jida, yo piye palè wa a, yo fè tout madanm li yo prizonye ansanm ak tout pitit gason l' yo. Sèl pitit gason yo te kite pou li se te Joakaz, ti dènye a.
18 Apre sa, Seyè a voye yon sèl maladi vant sou li ki pa t' ka geri.
19 Pandan dezan maladi a t'ap minen l', trip li yo soti, li t'ap soufri anpil lè li mouri. Pèp la pa t' limen boukan pou li jan yo te fè l' pou zansèt li yo.
20 Joram te gen tranndezan lè li moute wa, li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan witan. Pesonn pa t' pran lapenn pou li lè li mouri. Yo antere l' nan lavil David la, men yo pa mete l' nan tonm wa yo.
22 ¶ Yon bann arab te anvayi kan lame a, yo te touye tout gran pitit gason Joram yo. Sèl Okozyas, dènye pitit gason l' lan, te rete. Se konsa pèp Jerizalèm lan fè Okozyas wa nan plas papa l'.
2 Okozyas te gen venndezan lè li moute wa. Li gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm pandan yon sèl lanne. Manman l' te rele Atali, pitit fi Akab, pitit pitit fi Omri.
3 Okozyas tou te mache pye pou pye dèyè moun fanmi Akab yo, paske manman l' t'ap ba li move konsèy.
4 Li fè sa ki mal nan je Seyè a paske, apre lanmò papa l', se lòt moun fanmi Akab yo ki vin sèvi tankou konseye wa a. Se sa ki pèdi l' nèt.
5 Li koute konsèy yo, li mete tèt ansanm ak Joram, pitit pitit Akab, wa peyi Izrayèl la, pou al atake Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a. Lame yo kontre yonn ak lòt lavil Ramòt nan peyi Galarad. Moun Siri yo blese Joram.
6 Joram tounen lavil Jizreyèl pou l' te refè anba blese li te pran nan batay li t'ap mennen kont Azayèl, wa peyi Siri a, lavil Ramòt. Lè sa a, Okozyas moute lavil Jizreyèl pou l' vizite Joram, pitit pitit Akab, paske Joram te malad.
7 Se Bondye ki te fè Okozyas al rann Joram vizit sa a pou l' te ka kraze l'. Rive Okozyas rive, li pati ansanm ak Joram al kontre Jeou, pitit gason Nimchi a, yon moun Bondye te chwazi pou disparèt tout fanmi Akab la.
8 Se konsa, pandan Jeou t'ap regle ak fanmi Akab la, li kontre kèk chèf peyi Jida ak ti fanmi wa Okozyas yo ki t'ap sèvi nan lame Okozyas la. Li touye tout.
9 Apre sa, li mande pou yo chache Okozyas ki te kache nan peyi Samari a. Yo jwenn li, yo mennen l' bay Jeou ki fè yo touye l'. Apre sa, yo antere kadav li, paske yo t'ap di se pitit pitit Jozafa ki te fè sa l' kapab pou l' sèvi Seyè a. Se konsa pa t' rete pesonn nan fanmi Okozyas la ki te ka pran pouvwa a pou gouvènen.
10 ¶ Lè Atali, manman Okozyas, vin konnen yo te touye pitit li a, li bay lòd pou yo touye tout rès fanmi wa peyi Jida yo.
11 Men, lè yo t'ap touye pitit wa yo, Jozabèt, pitit fi wa Joram lan, pran Joas, pitit gason Okozyas la, li sere l'. Li kache l' ansanm ak moun ki te sèvi l' nouris la nan yon chanm kote moun dòmi nan Tanp lan. Se konsa, Jozabèt, pitit fi wa Joram lan, sè menm papa ak Okozyas, epi ki te madanm Jeojada, prèt la, te sere Joas san Atali pa konn sa, kifè li pa t' mouri tou.
12 Pandan sizan Joas te rete kache nan Tanp lan ansanm ak moun ki te sèvi l' nouris la. Atali menm t'ap gouvènen peyi a.
2 Chronicles 21-22
New International Version
2 Chronicles 21-22
New International Version
21 Then Jehoshaphat rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the City of David. And Jehoram(A) his son succeeded him as king. 2 Jehoram’s brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat, were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariahu, Michael and Shephatiah. All these were sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.[a] 3 Their father had given them many gifts(B) of silver and gold and articles of value, as well as fortified cities(C) in Judah, but he had given the kingdom to Jehoram because he was his firstborn son.
Jehoram King of Judah(D)
4 When Jehoram established(E) himself firmly over his father’s kingdom, he put all his brothers(F) to the sword along with some of the officials of Israel. 5 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. 6 He followed the ways of the kings of Israel,(G) as the house of Ahab had done, for he married a daughter of Ahab.(H) He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. 7 Nevertheless, because of the covenant the Lord had made with David,(I) the Lord was not willing to destroy the house of David.(J) He had promised to maintain a lamp(K) for him and his descendants forever.
8 In the time of Jehoram, Edom(L) rebelled against Judah and set up its own king. 9 So Jehoram went there with his officers and all his chariots. The Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, but he rose up and broke through by night. 10 To this day Edom has been in rebellion against Judah.
Libnah(M) revolted at the same time, because Jehoram had forsaken the Lord, the God of his ancestors. 11 He had also built high places on the hills of Judah and had caused the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves and had led Judah astray.
12 Jehoram received a letter from Elijah(N) the prophet, which said:
“This is what the Lord, the God of your father(O) David, says: ‘You have not followed the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa(P) king of Judah. 13 But you have followed the ways of the kings of Israel, and you have led Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab did.(Q) You have also murdered your own brothers, members of your own family, men who were better(R) than you. 14 So now the Lord is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives and everything that is yours, with a heavy blow. 15 You yourself will be very ill with a lingering disease(S) of the bowels, until the disease causes your bowels to come out.’”
16 The Lord aroused against Jehoram the hostility of the Philistines and of the Arabs(T) who lived near the Cushites. 17 They attacked Judah, invaded it and carried off all the goods found in the king’s palace, together with his sons and wives. Not a son was left to him except Ahaziah,[b] the youngest.(U)
18 After all this, the Lord afflicted Jehoram with an incurable disease of the bowels. 19 In the course of time, at the end of the second year, his bowels came out because of the disease, and he died in great pain. His people made no funeral fire in his honor,(V) as they had for his predecessors.
20 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He passed away, to no one’s regret, and was buried(W) in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
Ahaziah King of Judah(X)(Y)
22 The people(Z) of Jerusalem(AA) made Ahaziah, Jehoram’s youngest son, king in his place, since the raiders,(AB) who came with the Arabs into the camp, had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah began to reign.
2 Ahaziah was twenty-two[c] years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, a granddaughter of Omri.
3 He too followed(AC) the ways of the house of Ahab,(AD) for his mother encouraged him to act wickedly. 4 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as the house of Ahab had done, for after his father’s death they became his advisers, to his undoing. 5 He also followed their counsel when he went with Joram[d] son of Ahab king of Israel to wage war against Hazael king of Aram at Ramoth Gilead.(AE) The Arameans wounded Joram; 6 so he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds they had inflicted on him at Ramoth[e] in his battle with Hazael(AF) king of Aram.
Then Ahaziah[f] son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to Jezreel to see Joram son of Ahab because he had been wounded.
7 Through Ahaziah’s(AG) visit to Joram, God brought about Ahaziah’s downfall. When Ahaziah arrived, he went out with Joram to meet Jehu son of Nimshi, whom the Lord had anointed to destroy the house of Ahab. 8 While Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab,(AH) he found the officials of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah’s relatives, who had been attending Ahaziah, and he killed them. 9 He then went in search of Ahaziah, and his men captured him while he was hiding(AI) in Samaria. He was brought to Jehu and put to death. They buried him, for they said, “He was a son of Jehoshaphat, who sought(AJ) the Lord with all his heart.” So there was no one in the house of Ahaziah powerful enough to retain the kingdom.
Athaliah and Joash(AK)
10 When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to destroy the whole royal family of the house of Judah. 11 But Jehosheba,[g] the daughter of King Jehoram, took Joash son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the royal princes who were about to be murdered and put him and his nurse in a bedroom. Because Jehosheba,[h] the daughter of King Jehoram and wife of the priest Jehoiada, was Ahaziah’s sister, she hid the child from Athaliah so she could not kill him. 12 He remained hidden with them at the temple of God for six years while Athaliah ruled the land.

2 Chronicles 21-22
King James Version
21 Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned in his stead.
2 And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah: all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he was the firstborn.
4 Now when Jehoram was risen up to the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the sword, and divers also of the princes of Israel.
5 Jehoram was thirty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, like as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife: and he wrought that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord.
7 Howbeit the Lord would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light to him and to his sons for ever.
8 In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king.
9 Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him in, and the captains of the chariots.
10 So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time also did Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had forsaken the Lord God of his fathers.
11 Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Judah thereto.
12 And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13 But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, which were better than thyself:
14 Behold, with a great plague will the Lord smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods:
15 And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.
16 Moreover the Lord stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that were near the Ethiopians:
17 And they came up into Judah, and brake into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, save Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
18 And after all this the Lord smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
19 And it came to pass, that in process of time, after the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness: so he died of sore diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
20 Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
22 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned.
2 Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.
3 He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab: for his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly.
4 Wherefore he did evil in the sight of the Lord like the house of Ahab: for they were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.
5 He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramothgilead: and the Syrians smote Joram.
6 And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick.
7 And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the Lord had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.
8 And it came to pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to Ahaziah, he slew them.
9 And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the Lord with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom.
10 But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah.
11 But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
12 And he was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land.

14 ¶ Jezi di yo: Pa kite bagay sa yo toumante nou. Mete konfyans nou nan Bondye, mete konfyans nou nan mwen tou.
2 Lakay Papa a gen anpil kote pou moun rete. Mwen pral pare plas pou nou. Si se pa t' vre, mwen pa ta di nou sa.
3 Lè m'a fin pare plas la pou nou, m'a tounen vin chache nou. Konsa, kote m'a ye a, se la n'a ye tou.
4 ¶ Nou konnen chemen ki mennen kote m' prale a.
5 Toma di li: Seyè, nou pa konnen kote ou prale a. Ki jan ou ta vle pou nou konnen chemen pou n' pran an?
6 Jezi reponn li: Se mwen menm ki chemen an. Se mwen menm ki verite a, se mwen menm ki lavi a. Pesonn pa ka al jwenn Papa a si li pa pase nan mwen.
7 Si nou konnen m', n'a konn Papa m' tou. Men, depi koulye a nou konnen l', nou wè l' tou.
8 Filip di l' konsa: Seyè, moutre nou Papa a. Se sa ase nou bezwen.
9 Jezi reponn li: Depi tout tan sa a mwen la avè nou, Filip, ou poko konnen m' toujou? Moun ki wè m', li wè Papa a. Ki jan ou ka fè di: Moutre m' Papa a?
10 Gen lè ou pa kwè mwen nan Papa a? Ou pa kwè Papa a nan mwen tou? Tout pawòl mwen di nou yo, se pa nan mwen yo soti. Papa a ki fè yonn ak mwen an, se li menm k'ap fè travay li.
11 Se pou nou kwè m' lè m' di nou: Mwen nan Papa a, Papa a nan mwen tou. Osinon, se pou nou kwè akòz sa m'ap fè a.
12 ¶ Sa m'ap di nou la a, se vre wi: Moun ki mete konfyans li nan mwen, li gen pou l' fè tou sa m'ap fè a. La menm rive fè pi gwo bagay toujou, paske mwen pral jwenn Papa a.
13 Tou sa n'a mande nan non m', m'a fè l' pou nou, pou Pitit la ka fè wè pouvwa Papa a.
14 (Nenpòt kisa n'a mande nan non m', m'a fè l' pou nou.)
15 ¶ Si nou renmen m', se pou n' obeyi kòmandman m' yo.
16 M'ap mande Papa a pou l' ban nou yon lòt moun pou ankouraje nou, pou li ka toujou la avèk nou, se Sentespri k'ap moutre nou verite a.
17 Moun k'ap viv dapre prensip lemonn pa ka resevwa l', paske yo pa ka wè l', ni yo pa ka konnen li. Men nou menm, nou konnen l' paske li rete nan kè nou, paske li nan nou.
18 ¶ Mwen p'ap kite nou pou kont nou: M'ap tounen vin jwenn nou ankò.
19 Anvan lontan ankò, lemonn p'ap wè m', men nou menm n'a wè mwen. Paske m'ap viv, nou menm tou n'ap viv.
20 Lè jou sa a va rive, n'a konnen mwen nan Papa a, nou menm nou nan mwen, epi mwen menm mwen nan nou.
21 Moun ki asepte kòmandman m' yo, ki obeyi yo, se moun sa a ki renmen mwen. Papa m' va renmen moun ki renmen mwen. Mwen menm tou, m'a renmen l', epi m'a fè l' wè mwen.
22 Jid (se pa Jida Iskariòt la non) di l' konsa: Seyè, ki jan pou ou fè nou wè ou san pou moun k'ap viv dapre prensip lemonn yo pa wè ou?
23 Jezi reponn li: Moun ki renmen m', se li menm ki va fè tou sa m' di l' fè. Papa m' va renmen l' tou. Papa m' va vin jwenn li ansanm avè m', n'a viv nan li.
24 Moun ki pa renmen m', li p'ap fè tou sa m' di l' fè. Tou sa nou tande m'ap di a, se pa nan mwen yo soti, men se nan Papa m' ki voye m' lan yo soti.
25 ¶ Mwen di nou tou sa antan m' la ankò avèk nou.
26 Moun ki pou vin ankouraje nou an, se Sentespri. Se Papa m' k'ap voye l' nan non mwen. Sentespri sa a va moutre nou tout bagay, la fè nou chonje tou sa m' te di nou.
27 M'ap ban nou kè poze. M'ap fè kè nou poze nan jan pa mwen. Mwen p'ap fè li pou nou jan sa fèt dapre prensip ki nan lemonn. Pa kite anyen toumante tèt nou, nou pa bezwen pè.
28 ¶ Nou tande m' di nou: Mwen prale, men m'ap tounen vin jwenn nou. Si nou te renmen m', nou ta kontan konnen mwen pral jwenn Papa a, paske Papa a gen plis pouvwa pase mwen.
29 Mwen tou di nou sa koulye a anvan bagay sa yo rive, pou lè yo rive nou ka kwè.
30 Mwen p'ap pale anpil ankò avè nou, paske chèf k'ap dominen lemonn lan ap vini. Li pa gen okenn pouvwa sou mwen.
31 Men, se pou tout moun sou latè konnen mwen renmen Papa m'. Wi, fòk yo konnen m'ap fè sa Papa m' te ban m' lòd fè a. Leve non. Ann sot isit la.

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.

King James Version
14 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?
10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
20 At 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 will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.
25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
