John 14:5-17
English Standard Version
5 (A)Thomas said to him, “Lord, (B)we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am (C)the way, and (D)the truth, and (E)the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 (F)If you had known me, you would have (G)known my Father also.[a] From now on you do know him and (H)have seen him.”
8 (I)Philip said to him, “Lord, (J)show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? (K)Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that (L)I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you (M)I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that (N)I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else (O)believe on account of the works themselves.
12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, (P)whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I (Q)am going to the Father. 13 (R)Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that (S)the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 (T)If you ask me[b] anything in my name, I will do it.
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15 (U)“If you love me, you will (V)keep my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another (W)Helper,[c] to be with you forever, 17 even (X)the Spirit of truth, (Y)whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and (Z)will be[d] in you.

26 But the (A)Helper, the Holy Spirit, (B)whom the Father will send in my name, (C)he will teach you all things and (D)bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. 27 (E)Peace I leave with you; (F)my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. (G)Let not your hearts be troubled, neither (H)let them be afraid.

John 16:5-15
English Standard Version
5 But now (A)I am going to him who sent me, and (B)none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, (C)sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for (D)if I do not go away, (E)the Helper will not come to you. But (F)if (G)I go, (H)I will send him to you. 8 (I)And when he comes, he will (J)convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 concerning sin, (K)because they do not believe in me; 10 (L)concerning righteousness, (M)because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 (N)concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world (O)is judged.
12 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 When (P)the Spirit of truth comes, (Q)he will (R)guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but (S)whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will (T)glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. 15 (U)All that the Father has is mine; (V)therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.
