Another Counselor Promised
15 “If you love me, you will keep[a] my commands.(A) 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor[b](B) to be with you forever. 17 He is the Spirit(C) of truth.(D) The world is unable to receive him because it doesn’t see him or know him. But you do know him, because he remains with you and will be[c] in you.(E)
The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit
18 “I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming to you. 19 In a little while the world will no longer see me,(F) but you will see me.(G) Because I live, you will live(H) too. 20 On that day you will know that I am in my Father,(I) you are in me, and I am in you. 21 The one who has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me.(J) And the one who loves me will be loved by my Father.(K) I also will love him and will reveal myself to him.”
22 Judas(L) (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it you’re going to reveal yourself to us and not to the world?” (M)
23 Jesus answered, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.(N) 24 The one who doesn’t love me will not keep my words. The word that you hear is not mine but is from the Father who sent me.(O)
25 “I have spoken these things to you while I remain with you. 26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit,(P) whom the Father will send(Q) in my name, will teach you all things(R) and remind you of everything I have told you.(S)
Jesus’s Gift of Peace
27 “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Don’t let your heart be troubled or fearful.(T) 28 You have heard me tell you, ‘I am going away(U) and I am coming to you.’ If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father,(V) because the Father is greater than I.(W) 29 I have told you now before it happens(X) so that when it does happen you may believe. 30 I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world(Y) is coming. He has no power over me.[d](Z) 31 On the contrary, so that the world may know that I love the Father, I do as the Father commanded me.
“Get up; let’s leave this place.

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15 “If you love me, keep my commands.(A) 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate(B) to help you and be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth.(C) The world cannot accept him,(D) because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[a] in you. 18 I will not leave you as orphans;(E) I will come to you.(F) 19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me.(G) Because I live, you also will live.(H) 20 On that day(I) you will realize that I am in my Father,(J) and you are in me, and I am in you.(K) 21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me.(L) The one who loves me will be loved by my Father,(M) and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
22 Then Judas(N) (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?”(O)
23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching.(P) My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.(Q) 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.(R)
25 “All this I have spoken while still with you. 26 But the Advocate,(S) the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name,(T) will teach you all things(U) and will remind you of everything I have said to you.(V) 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.(W) I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled(X) and do not be afraid.
28 “You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’(Y) If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father,(Z) for the Father is greater than I.(AA) 29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe.(AB) 30 I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world(AC) 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.(AD)
“Come now; let us leave.
