John 14:27-31

Expanded Bible

²⁷ “I leave you peace [^Cthe Greek word for “peace” reflects the Hebrew shalom, a typical Hebrew farewell; but Jesus’ peace, in the sense of wholeness, is also a characteristic of the messianic kingdom]; my peace I give you. I do not give it to you as the world does. So don’t let your hearts be troubled or afraid. ²⁸ You heard me say to you, ‘I am going, but I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you should ·be happy [rejoice] that I am going back to the Father, because he is greater than I am. ²⁹ I have told you this now, before it happens, so that when it happens, you will believe [13:19]. ³⁰ I will not talk with you much longer, because the ·ruler [prince] of this world [^CSatan] is coming. He has ·no power [no claim/hold; ^Lnothing] over me, ³¹ but the world must know that I love the Father, so I do ·exactly what [just as] the Father ·told [commanded] me to do [^Cgo to the cross].

“·Come now [^LGet up; Rise up], let us go.
