John 14
[1] Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
[2] 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. [3] 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. [4] And whither I go ye know, and the way ye
know. [5] Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and
how can we know the way?
[6] Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man
cometh unto the Father, but by me.
[7] If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from
henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. [8] Philip saith unto him, Lord,
shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. [9] 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, Shew 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.

John 15
[1] I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. [2] Every branch
in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth
fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
[3] Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. [4]
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself,
except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. [5] I
am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the
same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. [6] If a
man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men
gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. [7] If ye
abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it
shall be done unto you.
[8] Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be
my disciples.
[9] As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
[10] If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have
kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. [11] These things
have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy
might be full.
[12] This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
[13] Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for
his friends.
[14] Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. [15] Henceforth
I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth:
but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my
Father I have made known unto you. [16] Ye have not chosen me, but I have
chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and
that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father
in my name, he may give it you. [17] These things I command you, that ye
love one another. [18] If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me
before it hated you. [19] If ye were of the world, the world would love his
own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the
world, therefore the world hateth you.
[20] Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater
than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if
they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. [21] But all these
things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him
that sent me.
[22] If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now
they have no cloke for their sin.
[23] He that hateth me hateth my Father also. [24] If I had not done among
them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have
they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
[25] But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is
written in their law, They hated me without a cause. [26] But when the
Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the
Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
[27] And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

John 16
[1] These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
[2] They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that
whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. [3] And these
things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor
me.
[4] But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may
remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at
the beginning, because I was with you. [5] But now I go my way to him that
sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
[6] But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
[7] Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go
away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I
depart, I will send him unto you.
[8] And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of
righteousness, and of judgment:
[9] Of sin, because they believe not on me; [10] Of righteousness, because
I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; [11] Of judgment, because the
prince of this world is judged. [12] I have yet many things to say unto
you, but ye cannot bear them now. [13] Howbeit when he, the Spirit of
truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of
himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will
shew you things to come. [14] He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of
mine, and shall shew it unto you.
[15] All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he
shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you. [16] A little while, and ye
shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I
go to the Father. [17] Then said some of his disciples among themselves,
What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see
me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to
the Father? [18] They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little
while? we cannot tell what he saith.
[19] Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them,
Do ye inquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall
not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me? [20] Verily,
verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall
rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into
joy.
[21] A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come:
but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the
anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. [22] And ye now
therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall
rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you. [23] And in that day ye shall
ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the
Father in my name, he will give it you. [24] Hitherto have ye asked nothing
in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
[25] These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh,
when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you
plainly of the Father.
[26] At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I
will pray the Father for you:
[27] For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have
believed that I came out from God.
[28] I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I
leave the world, and go to the Father. [29] His disciples said unto him,
Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.
[30] Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any
man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
[31] Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? [32] Behold, the hour cometh,
yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and
shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with
me.
[33] These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have
overcome the world.

John 17
[1] These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said,
Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify
thee:
[2] As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give
eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. [3] And this is life
eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ,
whom thou hast sent. [4] I have glorified thee on the earth: I have
finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
[5] And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory
which I had with thee before the world was. [6] I have manifested thy name
unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and
thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.
[7] Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.
[8] For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they
have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and
they have believed that thou didst send me. [9] I pray for them: I pray not
for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
[10] And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in
them. [11] And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world,
and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom
thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. [12] While I was with
them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I
have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the
scripture might be fulfilled. [13] And now come I to thee; and these things
I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
[14] I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because
they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. [15] I pray not
that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest
keep them from the evil. [16] They are not of the world, even as I am not
of the world. [17] Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. [18]
As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the
world.
[19] And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be
sanctified through the truth.
[20] Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe
on me through their word;
[21] That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee,
that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast
sent me.
[22] And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be
one, even as we are one:
[23] I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and
that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as
thou hast loved me.
[24] Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me
where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for
thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. [25] O righteous
Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these
have known that thou hast sent me. [26] And I have declared unto them thy
name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may
be in them, and I in them.
