Jesus’ Farewell Discourse
14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe[a] in God; believe[b] also in me. 2 In my Father’s house there are many dwelling places; but if not, I would have told you, because[c] I am going away to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself, so that where I am, you may be also. 4 And you know the way where I am going.”
