John 14:27-31
Wycliffe Bible
27 Peace I leave to you, my peace I give to you; not as the world giveth, I give to you; be not your heart afraid, nor dread it [be not your heart troubled, neither dread it].
28 Ye have heard, that I said to you, I go, and come to you. If ye loved me, forsooth ye should have joy [If ye loved me, forsooth ye should joy], for I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
29 And now I have said to you, before that it be done [before it be done], that when it is done, ye believe.
30 Now I shall not speak many things with you; for the prince of this world cometh, and hath not in me any thing [and he hath not any thing in me].
31 But that the world know, that I love the Father; and as the Father gave a commandment to me, so I do. Rise ye, go we hence.

John 14:27-31
New Matthew Bible
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, and do not fear. 28 You have heard how I said to you, I am going away and coming again to you. If you loved me, you would indeed rejoice because I said I am going to the Father. For the Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it comes, so that when it has come to pass, you may believe.
30 Hereafter I will not speak many words to you. For the ruler of this world comes. And he has nothing in me, 31 but so that the world may know that I love the Father, therefore as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

29 And now have I spoken unto you, before it come, that when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
30 [d]Hereafter will I not speak many things unto you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath [e]nought in me,
