João 14
I min Faders Hus er der mange Boliger. Dersom det ikke var så, havde jeg sagt eder det; thi jeg går bort for at berede eder Sted.
Og når jeg er gået bort og har beredt eder Sted, kommer jeg igen og tager eder til mig, for at, hvor jeg er, der skulle også I være.
Tror du ikke, at jeg er i Faderen, og Faderen er i mig? De Ord, som jeg siger til eder, taler jeg ikke af mig selv; men Faderen, som bliver i mig, han gør sine Gerninger.
Tror mig, at jeg er i Faderen, og Faderen er i mig; men ville I ikke, så tror mig dog for selve Gerningernes Skyld!
Sandelig, sandelig, siger jeg eder, den, som tror på mig, de Gerninger, som jeg gør, skal også han gøre, og han skal gøre større Gerninger end disse; thi jeg går til Faderen,
og hvad som helst I bede om i mit Navn, det vil jeg gøre, for at Faderen må herliggøres ved Sønnen.
Dersom I bede om noget i mit Navn, vil jeg gøre det.
Dersom I elske mig, da holder mine Befalinger!
Og jeg vil bede Faderen, og han skal give eder en anden Talsmand til at være hos eder evindelig,
den Sandhedens Ånd, som Verden ikke kan modtage, thi den ser den ikke og kender den ikke; men I kende den, thi den bliver hos eder og skal være i eder.
Jeg vil ikke efterlade eder faderløse; jeg kommer til eder.
Endnu en liden Stund, og Verden ser mig ikke mere, men I se mig; thi jeg lever, og I skulle leve.
På den Dag skulle I erkende, at jeg er i min Fader, og I i mig, og jeg i eder.
Den, som ikke elsker mig, holder ikke mine Ord; og det Ord, som I høre, er ikke mit, men Faderens, som sendte mig.
Dette har jeg talt til eder, medens jeg blev hos eder.
Men Talsmanden, den Helligånd, som Faderen vil sende i mit Navn, han skal lære eder alle Ting og minde eder om alle Ting, som jeg har sagt eder.
Fred efterlader jeg eder, min Fred giver jeg eder; jeg giver eder ikke, som Verden giver. Eders Hjerte forfærdes ikke og forsage ikke!
I have hørt, at jeg sagde til eder: Jeg går bort og kommer til eder igen. Dersom I elskede mig, da glædede I eder over, at jeg går til Faderen; thi Faderen er større end jeg.
Og nu har jeg sagt eder det, før det sker, for at I skulle tro, når det er sket.
Jeg skal herefter ikke tale meget med eder; thi denne Verdens Fyrste kommer, og han har slet intet i mig;
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
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.
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.
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
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?
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.
Believe me that I {am} in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
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.
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do {it}.
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
{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.
I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. {comfortless: or, orphans}
Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
At that day ye shall know that I {am} in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
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.
Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
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.
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.
These things have I spoken unto you, being {yet} present with you.
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.
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.
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.
And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
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.
