John 14:8-21
English Standard Version
8 (A)Philip said to him, “Lord, (B)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? (C)Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that (D)I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you (E)I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that (F)I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else (G)believe on account of the works themselves.
12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, (H)whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I (I)am going to the Father. 13 (J)Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that (K)the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 (L)If you ask me[a] anything in my name, I will do it.
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15 (M)“If you love me, you will (N)keep my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another (O)Helper,[b] to be with you forever, 17 even (P)the Spirit of truth, (Q)whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and (R)will be[c] in you.
18 “I will not leave you as orphans; (S)I will come to you. 19 (T)Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but (U)you will see me. (V)Because I live, you also will live. 20 (W)In that day you will know that (X)I am in my Father, and (Y)you in me, and (Z)I in you. 21 (AA)Whoever has my commandments and (AB)keeps them, he it is who loves me. And (AC)he who loves me (AD)will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and (AE)manifest myself to him.”
