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.(A) 28 You have heard me tell you, ‘I am going away(B) and I am coming to you.’ If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father,(C) because the Father is greater than I.(D) 29 I have told you now before it happens(E) so that when it does happen you may believe. 30 I will not talk with you much longer, because the ruler of the world(F) is coming. He has no power over me.[a](G) 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.

John 14:27-31
New Living Translation
27 “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid. 28 Remember what I told you: I am going away, but I will come back to you again. If you really loved me, you would be happy that I am going to the Father, who is greater than I am. 29 I have told you these things before they happen so that when they do happen, you will believe.
30 “I don’t have much more time to talk to you, because the ruler of this world approaches. He has no power over me, 31 but I will do what the Father requires of me, so that the world will know that I love the Father. Come, let’s be going.
