14 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.

20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.

29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

I Am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life

14 (A)“Let not your hearts be troubled. (B)Believe in God;[a] believe also in me. In (C)my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that (D)I go to prepare a place for you?[b] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you (E)to myself, that (F)where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.”[c] (G)Thomas said to him, “Lord, (H)we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” Jesus said to him, “I am (I)the way, and (J)the truth, and (K)the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (L)If you had known me, you would have (M)known my Father also.[d] From now on you do know him and (N)have seen him.”

(O)Philip said to him, “Lord, (P)show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? (Q)Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that (R)I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you (S)I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that (T)I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else (U)believe on account of the works themselves.

12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, (V)whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I (W)am going to the Father. 13 (X)Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that (Y)the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 (Z)If you ask me[e] anything in my name, I will do it.

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit

15 (AA)“If you love me, you will (AB)keep my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another (AC)Helper,[f] to be with you forever, 17 even (AD)the Spirit of truth, (AE)whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and (AF)will be[g] in you.

18 “I will not leave you as orphans; (AG)I will come to you. 19 (AH)Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but (AI)you will see me. (AJ)Because I live, you also will live. 20 (AK)In that day you will know that (AL)I am in my Father, and (AM)you in me, and (AN)I in you. 21 (AO)Whoever has my commandments and (AP)keeps them, he it is who loves me. And (AQ)he who loves me (AR)will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and (AS)manifest myself to him.” 22 (AT)Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it (AU)that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered him, (AV)“If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and (AW)we will come to him and (AX)make our home with him. 24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And (AY)the word that you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me.

25 “These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. 26 But the (AZ)Helper, the Holy Spirit, (BA)whom the Father will send in my name, (BB)he will teach you all things and (BC)bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. 27 (BD)Peace I leave with you; (BE)my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. (BF)Let not your hearts be troubled, neither (BG)let them be afraid. 28 (BH)You heard me say to you, (BI)‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I (BJ)am going to the Father, for (BK)the Father is greater than I. 29 And (BL)now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for (BM)the ruler of this world is coming. (BN)He has no claim on me, 31 but I do (BO)as the Father has commanded me, (BP)so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.

Si Jesus ang Dalan Pakadto sa Amay

14 Nagsiling si Jesus sa ila, “Indi kamo magsagi palibog. Magsalig kamo sa Dios kag magsalig man kamo sa akon. Didto sa balay sang akon Amay may madamo nga mga kuwarto. Magauna ako didto para magpreparar sang lugar para sa inyo. Indi ako magsiling sini sa inyo kon indi ini matuod. Kon didto na ako kag nakapreparar na sang lugar para sa inyo, mabalik ako agod kuhaon ko kamo, agod nga kon diin ako didto man kamo. Kag nahibaluan ninyo ang dalan pakadto sa lugar nga akon pagakadtuan.” Nagsiling si Tomas sa iya, “Ginoo, wala kami kahibalo kon diin ka makadto, gani paano namon mahibaluan ang dalan?” Nagsabat si Jesus sa iya, “Ako amo ang dalan, ang kamatuoran, kag ang kabuhi. Wala sing may makakadto sa Amay kon indi paagi sa akon. Kon kilala ninyo ako, kilala na man ninyo ang akon Amay. Kag halin gani subong kilala na ninyo siya kag nakita na.”

Nagsiling si Felipe sa iya, “Ginoo, ipakita sa amon ang Amay kag tama na ina para sa amon.” Nagsabat si Jesus, “Dugay na ang aton pag-inupdanay, Felipe, pero wala pa gid gali ikaw makakilala sa akon? Ang nakakita sa akon nakakita man sa Amay. Ngaa nagasiling ka pa nga ipakita ko sa inyo ang Amay? 10 Ano, wala bala ikaw nagapati nga ako ara sa Amay kag ang Amay ari sa akon? Ang mga pulong nga akon ginhambal sa inyo indi ina halin sa akon. Ang Amay nga ari sa akon amo ang nagahimo sang mga butang nga akon ginahimo. 11 Magpati kamo sa akon nga ako ara sa Amay kag ang Amay ari sa akon. Kon indi ninyo gusto magpati sa akon ginasugid, patihi na lang ninyo ako tungod sa akon mga hinimuan. 12 Sa pagkamatuod, ginasugid ko sa inyo nga ang nagatuo sa akon magahimo man sang mga butang nga akon ginahimo kag mas sobra pa gid ang iya himuon, tungod kay mabalik na ako sa Amay. 13-14 Buhaton ko ang bisan ano nga inyo pangayuon sa akon, agod mapadunggan ang Amay paagi sa Anak. Bisan ano ang inyo pangayuon sa akon ngalan[a] himuon ko ina.”

Ang Espiritu Santo nga Ginpromisa ni Jesus

15 “Kon ginahigugma ninyo ako, tumanon ninyo ang akon mga sugo. 16-17 Kag pangayuon ko sa Amay nga ipadala niya sa inyo ang isa na man ka Manugbulig. Ang Manugbulig nga ini wala sing iban kundi ang Espiritu Santo nga amo ang magatudlo sa inyo sang kamatuoran. Kag magapabilin siya sa inyo sa wala sing katapusan. Indi siya pagbatunon sang mga tawo sa kalibutan tungod kay indi nila siya makita kag wala sila makakilala sa iya. Pero kilala ninyo siya tungod kay siya kaupod ninyo, kag permi siya magapuyo sa inyo.

18 “Indi ko kamo pagbayaan nga wala sing upod; mabalik man ako sa inyo. 19 Madali na lang ako madula sa panan-aw sang mga tawo diri sa kalibutan, pero kamo makakita sa akon. Kag tungod kay ako nagakabuhi, kamo magakabuhi man.[b] 20 Pag-abot sina nga adlaw[c] mahibaluan gid ninyo nga ako ara sa akon Amay, kag kamo ari sa akon, kag ako ara man sa inyo.

21 “Ang tawo nga nagabaton kag nagatuman sang akon mga sugo amo ang nagahigugma sa akon. Kag ang nagahigugma sa akon higugmaon man sang akon Amay. Higugmaon ko man siya kag ipakilala ko sa iya kon sin-o gid ako.” 22 Karon ginpamangkot siya ni Judas (indi ini si Judas Iscariote), “Ginoo, ngaa sa amon ka lang mapakilala kon sin-o ka gid? Ngaa indi ka magpakilala sa tanan?” 23 Nagsabat si Jesus sa iya, “Ang nagahigugma sa akon magatuman sang akon mga pulong; higugmaon siya sang akon Amay, kag kami magapuyo sa iya mismo. 24 Pero ang wala nagahigugma sa akon wala nagatuman sang akon mga pulong. Ini nga mga pulong nga inyo ginapamatian indi halin sa akon, kundi halin sa Amay nga nagpadala sa akon.

25 “Ini nga mga butang ginasugid ko nga daan sa inyo samtang kaupod pa ninyo ako. 26 Pero kon makahalin na gani ako, ang Manugbulig nga amo ang Espiritu Santo amo ang ipadala sang Amay nga magbulos sa akon.[d] Siya ang magatudlo sa inyo sang tanan nga butang, kag magapadumdom siya sa inyo sang tanan nga akon ginsiling sa inyo.

27 “Indi kamo magpalibog kag indi man kamo magkahadlok, tungod kay ang kalinong ginabilin ko sa inyo. Ang akon kalinong mismo ginahatag ko sa inyo; indi ini pareho sang kalinong nga ginahatag sang kalibutan. 28 Nabatian ninyo ang akon ginsiling sa inyo nga mahalin ako pero mabalik man ako sa inyo. Kon ginahigugma ninyo ako, kuntani nagakalipay kamo nga makakadto ako sa Amay nga mas gamhanan pa sang sa akon. 29 Ginasugid ko nga daan ini sa inyo samtang wala pa matabo, agod nga kon matabo na magabaskog pa gid ang inyo pagtuo sa akon. 30 Indi na ako makapadugay sa paghambal sa inyo, tungod kay nagaabot na si Satanas nga amo ang nagagahom sa sini nga kalibutan. Sa matuod, wala siya sing gahom sa akon. 31 Pero agod mahibaluan sang tanan nga tawo nga ginahigugma ko ang Amay, ginasunod ko ang tanan nga iya ginapahimo sa akon. Dali na. Malakat na kita.”

The Way, the Truth, and the Life

14 “Let (A)not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many [a]mansions; if it were not so, [b]I would have told you. (B)I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, (C)I will come again and receive you to Myself; that (D)where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know.”

(E)Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”

Jesus said to him, “I am (F)the way, (G)the truth, and (H)the life. (I)No one comes to the Father (J)except through Me.

The Father Revealed

(K)“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”

Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”

Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? (L)He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that (M)I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you (N)I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, (O)or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.

The Answered Prayer

12 (P)“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13 (Q)And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be (R)glorified in the Son. 14 If you [c]ask anything in My name, I will do it.

Jesus Promises Another Helper

15 (S)“If you love Me, [d]keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and (T)He will give you another [e]Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17 (U)the Spirit of truth, (V)whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you (W)and will be in you. 18 (X)I will not leave you orphans; (Y)I will come to you.

Indwelling of the Father and the Son

19 “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but (Z)you will see Me. (AA)Because I live, you will live also. 20 At that day you will know that (AB)I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. 21 (AC)He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and [f]manifest Myself to him.”

22 (AD)Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?”

23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, (AE)and We will come to him and make Our home with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and (AF)the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me.

The Gift of His Peace

25 “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. 26 But (AG)the [g]Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will (AH)send in My name, (AI)He will teach you all things, and bring to your (AJ)remembrance all things that I said to you. 27 (AK)Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28 You have heard Me (AL)say to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because [h]I said, (AM)‘I am going to the Father,’ for (AN)My Father is greater than I.

29 “And (AO)now I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, (AP)for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has (AQ)nothing in Me. 31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and (AR)as the Father gave Me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

Jesus Comforts His Disciples

14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled.(A) You believe(B) in God[a];(C) believe also in me. 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? 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) You know the way to the place where I am going.”

Jesus the Way to the Father

Thomas(G) said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”

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) 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.”

Philip(N) said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”

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.
