約翰福音 14

耶穌是道路、真理、生命

1 「你們心裏不要憂愁；你們信上帝，也當信我。 2 在我父的家裏有許多住處；若是沒有，我就早已告訴你們了。我去原是為你們預備地方去。 3 我若去為你們預備了地方，就必再來接你們到我那裏去，我在哪裏，叫你們也在那裏。 4 我往哪裏去，你們知道；那條路，你們也知道t。」 5 多馬對他說：「主啊，我們不知道你往哪裏去，怎麼知道那條路呢？」 6 耶穌說：「我就是道路、真理、生命；若不藉著我，沒有人能到父那裏去。 7 你們若認識我，也就認識我的父。從今以後，你們認識他，並且已經看見他。」 8 腓力對他說：「求主將父顯給我們看，我們就知足了。」 9 耶穌對他說：「腓力，我與你們同在這樣長久，你還不認識我嗎？人看見了我，就是看見了父；你怎麼說『將父顯給我們看』呢？ 10 我在父裏面，父在我裏面，你不信嗎？我對你們所說的話，不是憑著自己說的，乃是住在我裏面的父做他自己的事。 11 你們當信我，我在父裏面，父在我裏面；即或不信，也當因我所做的事信我。 12 我實實在在地告訴你們，我所做的事，信我的人也要做，並且要做比這更大的事，因為我往父那裏去。 13 你們奉我的名無論求甚麼，我必成就，叫父因兒子得榮耀。 14 你們若奉我的名求甚麼，我必成就。」

應許賜聖靈

15 「你們若愛我，就必遵守我的命令。 16 我要求父，父就另外賜給你們一位保惠師t，叫他永遠與你們同在， 17 就是真理的聖靈，乃世人不能接受的；因為不見他，也不認識他。你們卻認識他，因他常與你們同在，也要在你們裏面。 18 我不撇下你們為孤兒，我必到你們這裏來。 19 還有不多的時候，世人不再看見我，你們卻看見我；因為我活著，你們也要活著。 20 到那日，你們就知道我在父裏面，你們在我裏面，我也在你們裏面。 21 有了我的命令又遵守的，這人就是愛我的；愛我的必蒙我父愛他，我也要愛他，並且要向他顯現。」 22 猶大（不是加略人猶大）問耶穌說：「主啊，為甚麼要向我們顯現，不向世人顯現呢？」 23 耶穌回答說：「人若愛我，就必遵守我的道；我父也必愛他，並且我們要到他那裏去，與他同住。 24 不愛我的人就不遵守我的道。你們所聽見的道不是我的，乃是差我來之父的道。

25 「我還與你們同住的時候，已將這些話對你們說了。 26 但保惠師，就是父因我的名所要差來的聖靈，他要將一切的事指教你們，並且要叫你們想起我對你們所說的一切話。 27 我留下平安給你們；我將我的平安賜給你們。我所賜的，不像世人所賜的。你們心裏不要憂愁，也不要膽怯。 28 你們聽見我對你們說了，我去還要到你們這裏來。你們若愛我，因我到父那裏去，就必喜樂，因為父是比我大的。 29 現在事情還沒有成就，我預先告訴你們，叫你們到事情成就的時候就可以信。 30 以後我不再和你們多說話，因為這世界的王將到。他在我裏面是毫無所有； 31 但要叫世人知道我愛父，並且父怎樣吩咐我，我就怎樣行。起來，我們走吧！」

Jesus’ Parting Words to His Disciples

1 “Do not let your hearts be distressed.s You believe in God;t believe also in me.2 There are many dwelling placest in my Father’s house.s Otherwise, I would have told you, becausests I am going away to make readyt a place for you.t3 And if I go and make readyt a place for you, I will come again and take yout to be with me,t so that where I am you may be too.

4 And you know the way where I am going.”ss
5 Thomas said,t “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”6 Jesus replied,t “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.t No one comes to the Father except through me.

7 If you have known me, you will know my Father too.s And from now on you do know him and have seen him.”
8 Philip said,t “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be content.”t9 Jesus replied,t “Have I been with you for so long, and you have not knownt me, Philip? The person who has seen me has seen the Father! How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me?t The words that I say to you, I do not speak on my own initiative,t but the Father residing in me performst his miraculous deeds.ts11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me, but if you do not believe me,t believe because of the miraculous deedsts themselves.12 I tell you the solemn truth,t the person who believes in me will performt the miraculous deedst that I am doing,ts and will performt greater deedsts than these, because I am going to the Father.13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name,t so that the Father may be glorifiedt in the Son.

14 If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.

Teaching on the Holy Spirit

15 “If you love me, you will obeyt my commandments.s16 Thent I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocatet to be with you forever –

17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot accept,t because it does not see him or know him. But you know him, because he residest with you and will bes in you.
18 “I will not abandont you as orphans,t I will come to you.s19 In a little whilet the world will not see me any longer, but you will see me; because I live, you will live too.20 You will know at that timets that I am in my Father and you are in me and I am in you.

21 The person who has my commandments and obeyst them is the one who loves me.t The onet who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will revealt myself to him.”
22 “Lord,” Judas (not Judas Iscariot)ts said,t “what has happened that you are going to revealts yourself to us and not to the world?”23 Jesus replied,t “If anyone loves me, he will obeyt my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and take up residence with him.t

24 The person who does not love me does not obeyt my words. And the wordt you hear is not mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
25 “I have spoken these things while stayingt with you.

26 But the Advocate,t the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach yout everything,t and will cause you to remember everythingt I said to you.
27 “Peace I leave with you;s my peace I give to you; I do not give itt to you as the world does.t Do not let your hearts be distressed or lacking in courage.t28 You heard me say to you,t ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be gladt that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am.s29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe.s30 I will not speak with you much longer,t for the ruler of this world is coming.s He has no power over me,t

31 but I am doing just what the Father commanded me, so that the world may knowt that I love the Father.t Get up, let us go from here.”s
