Giovanni 14
Conferenza Episcopale Italiana

14 «Non sia turbato il vostro cuore. Abbiate fede in Dio e abbiate fede anche in me. 2 Nella casa del Padre mio vi sono molti posti. Se no, ve l'avrei detto. Io vado a prepararvi un posto; 3 quando sarò andato e vi avrò preparato un posto, ritornerò e vi prenderò con me, perché siate anche voi dove sono io. 4 E del luogo dove io vado, voi conoscete la via».

5 Gli disse Tommaso: «Signore, non sappiamo dove vai e come possiamo conoscere la via?». 6 Gli disse Gesù: «Io sono la via, la verità e la vita. Nessuno viene al Padre se non per mezzo di me. 7 Se conoscete me, conoscerete anche il Padre: fin da ora lo conoscete e lo avete veduto». 8 Gli disse Filippo: «Signore, mostraci il Padre e ci basta». 9 Gli rispose Gesù: «Da tanto tempo sono con voi e tu non mi hai conosciuto, Filippo? Chi ha visto me ha visto il Padre. Come puoi dire: Mostraci il Padre? 10 Non credi che io sono nel Padre e il Padre è in me? Le parole che io vi dico, non le dico da me; ma il Padre che è con me compie le sue opere. 11 Credetemi: io sono nel Padre e il Padre è in me; se non altro, credetelo per le opere stesse.

12 In verità, in verità vi dico: anche chi crede in me, compirà le opere che io compio e ne farà di più grandi, perché io vado al Padre. 13 Qualunque cosa chiederete nel nome mio, la farò, perché il Padre sia glorificato nel Figlio. 14 Se mi chiederete qualche cosa nel mio nome, io la farò.

15 Se mi amate, osserverete i miei comandamenti. 16 Io pregherò il Padre ed egli vi darà un altro Consolatore perché rimanga con voi per sempre, 17 lo Spirito di verità che il mondo non può ricevere, perché non lo vede e non lo conosce. Voi lo conoscete, perché egli dimora presso di voi e sarà in voi. 18 Non vi lascerò orfani, ritornerò da voi. 19 Ancora un poco e il mondo non mi vedrà più; voi invece mi vedrete, perché io vivo e voi vivrete. 20 In quel giorno voi saprete che io sono nel Padre e voi in me e io in voi. 21 Chi accoglie i miei comandamenti e li osserva, questi mi ama. Chi mi ama sarà amato dal Padre mio e anch'io lo amerò e mi manifesterò a lui».

22 Gli disse Giuda, non l'Iscariota: «Signore, come è accaduto che devi manifestarti a noi e non al mondo?». 23 Gli rispose Gesù: «Se uno mi ama, osserverà la mia parola e il Padre mio lo amerà e noi verremo a lui e prenderemo dimora presso di lui. 24 Chi non mi ama non osserva le mie parole; la parola che voi ascoltate non è mia, ma del Padre che mi ha mandato.

25 Queste cose vi ho detto quando ero ancora tra voi. 26 Ma il Consolatore, lo Spirito Santo che il Padre manderà nel mio nome, egli v'insegnerà ogni cosa e vi ricorderà tutto ciò che io vi ho detto. 27 Vi lascio la pace, vi do la mia pace. Non come la dà il mondo, io la do a voi. Non sia turbato il vostro cuore e non abbia timore. 28 Avete udito che vi ho detto: Vado e tornerò a voi; se mi amaste, vi rallegrereste che io vado dal Padre, perché il Padre è più grande di me. 29 Ve l'ho detto adesso, prima che avvenga, perché quando avverrà, voi crediate. 30 Non parlerò più a lungo con voi, perché viene il principe del mondo; egli non ha nessun potere su di me, 31 ma bisogna che il mondo sappia che io amo il Padre e faccio quello che il Padre mi ha comandato. Alzatevi, andiamo via di qui».

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

Jesus the Way to the Father

14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe[a] in God; believe also in me.(A) 2 In my Father’s house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?[b] 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, so that where I am, there you may be also.(B) 4 And you know the way to the place where I am going.”[c] 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 and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.(C) 7 If you know me, you will know[d] 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 we will be satisfied.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?(D) 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, but the Father who dwells in me does his works.(E) 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, but if you do not, then believe[e] because of the works themselves.(F) 12 Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If in my name you ask me[f] for anything, I will do it.

The Promise of the Holy Spirit

15 “If you love me, you will keep[g] my commandments.(G) 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate,[h] to be with you forever.(H) 17 This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him because he abides with you, and he will be[i] in[j] you.(I)

18 “I will not leave you orphaned; I am coming to you. 19 In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me; because I live, you also will live. 20 On that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.(J) 21 They who have my commandments and keep them are those who love me, and those who love me will be loved by my Father, and I will love them and reveal myself to them.”(K) 22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it that you will reveal yourself to us and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered him, “Those who love me will keep my word, and my Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.(L) 24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words, and the word that you hear is not mine but is from the Father who sent me.(M)

25 “I have said these things to you while I am still with you. 26 But the Advocate,[k] the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of all that I have said to you.(N) 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid.(O) 28 You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, and I am coming to you.’ If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I.(P) 29 And now I have told you this before it occurs, so that when it does occur you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me,(Q) 31 but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us be on our way.(R)

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.
