John 14
Christian Standard Bible
The Way to the Father
14 “Don’t let your heart be troubled.(A) Believe[a] in God; (B) believe also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going (C) to prepare a place for you? 3 If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come again(D) and take you to myself, so that where I am you may be also.(E) 4 You know the way to where I am going.”[b](F)
5 “Lord,” Thomas(G) said, “we don’t know where you’re going. How can we know the way?”
6 Jesus told him, “I am(H) the way,(I) the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you know me, you will also know[c] my Father.(J) From now on you do know him(K) and have seen him.”
Jesus Reveals the Father
8 “Lord,” said Philip,(L) “show us the Father, and that’s enough for us.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been among you all this time and you do not know me, Philip? The one who has seen me has seen the Father.(M) How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?(N) The words I speak to you I do not speak on my own.(O) The Father who lives in me does his works.(P) 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Otherwise, believe[d] because of the works themselves.(Q)
Praying in Jesus’s Name
12 “Truly I tell you, the one who believes in me(R) will also do the works that I do. And he will do even greater works than these,(S) because I am going to the Father.(T) 13 Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it so that the Father may be glorified(U) in the Son.(V) 14 If you ask me[e] anything in my name,(W) I will do it.[f](X)
Another Counselor Promised
15 “If you love me, you will keep[g] my commands.(Y) 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor[h](Z) to be with you forever. 17 He is the Spirit(AA) of truth.(AB) 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[i] in you.(AC)
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,(AD) but you will see me.(AE) Because I live, you will live(AF) too. 20 On that day you will know that I am in my Father,(AG) 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.(AH) And the one who loves me will be loved by my Father.(AI) I also will love him and will reveal myself to him.”
22 Judas(AJ) (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it you’re going to reveal yourself to us and not to the world?” (AK)
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.(AL) 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.(AM)
25 “I have spoken these things to you while I remain with you. 26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit,(AN) whom the Father will send(AO) in my name, will teach you all things(AP) and remind you of everything I have told you.(AQ)
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.(AR) 28 You have heard me tell you, ‘I am going away(AS) and I am coming to you.’ If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father,(AT) because the Father is greater than I.(AU) 29 I have told you now before it happens(AV) so that when it does happen you may believe. 30 I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world(AW) is coming. He has no power over me.[j](AX) 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.

约翰福音 14
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
耶稣是道路、真理、生命
14 “你们心里不要忧愁;你们信 神,也当信我。 2 在我父的家里有许多住处;若是没有,我就早已告诉你们了。我去原是为你们预备地方去。[a] 3 我若去为你们预备了地方,就必再来接你们到我那里去,我在哪里,叫你们也在哪里。 4 我往哪里去,你们知道那条路。” 5 多马对他说:“主啊,我们不知道你去哪里,怎么能知道那条路呢?” 6 耶稣对他说:“我就是道路、真理、生命;若不藉着我,没有人能到父那里去。 7 既然你们认识了我,也会认识我的父。从今以后,你们就认识他,并且已经看见他了。”
8 腓力对他说:“主啊,将父显给我们看,我们就知足了。” 9 耶稣对他说:“腓力,我与你们在一起这么久了,你还不认识我吗?看见我的就是看见了父,你怎么还说‘将父显给我们看’呢? 10 我在父里面,父在我里面,你不信吗?我对你们所说的话不是凭着自己说的,而是住在我里面的父在做他的工作。 11 你们要信我,我在父里面,父在我里面;即使不信,也要因我所做的工作信我。 12 我实实在在地告诉你们,我所做的工作,信我的人也要做,并且要做得比这些更大,因为我到父那里去。 13 你们奉我的名无论求什么,我必成全,为了使父因儿子得荣耀。 14 你们若奉我的名向我求什么,我必成全。”
应许赐圣灵
15 “你们若爱我,就会遵守我的命令。 16 我要求父,父就赐给你们另外一位保惠师[b],使他永远与你们同在。 17 他就是真理的灵,是世人不能接受的。因为他们既看不见他,也不认识他;你们却认识他,因他常与你们同在,也要在你们里面。 18 我不会撇下你们为孤儿,我必到你们这里来。 19 再过不久,世人不再看见我,你们却会看见我,因为我活着,你们也要活着。 20 到那日,你们就会知道我在父里面,你们在我里面,我也在你们里面。 21 有了我的命令而又遵守的人,就是爱我的;爱我的人,我父要爱他,我也要爱他,并且要亲自向他显现。” 22 犹大(不是加略人犹大)问耶稣:“主啊,为什么亲自向我们显现,而不向世人显现呢?” 23 耶稣回答他说:“凡爱我的人就会遵守我的道,我父也会爱他,并且我们要到他那里去,与他同住。 24 不爱我的人就不遵守我的道。你们所听见的道不是我的,而是差我来之父的。
25 “我还与你们在一起的时候,已对你们说了这些事。 26 但保惠师,就是父因我的名所要差来的圣灵,他要把一切的事教导你们,并且要使你们想起我对你们所说的一切话。 27 我留下平安给你们,我把我的平安赐给你们。我所赐给你们的,不像世人所赐的。你们心里不要忧愁,也不要胆怯。 28 你们听见我对你们说过,我去了还要回到你们这里来。你们若爱我,就会因我到父那里去而喜乐,因为父比我大。 29 现在事情还没有发生,我预先告诉你们,使你们在事情发生的时候会信。 30 我不再和你们多说了,因为这世界的统治者将到,他在我身上一无所能。 31 我这么做是照着父命令我的,为了让世人知道我爱父。起来,我们走吧!”
