Jesus conforta os discípulos

1 Não se turbe o vosso coração; credes em Deus, crede também em mim. 2 Na casa de meu Pai há muitas moradas. Se assim não fora, eu vo-lo teria dito. Pois vou preparar-vos lugar. 3 E, quando eu for e vos preparar lugar, voltarei e vos receberei para mim mesmo, para que, onde eu estou, estejais vós também. 4 E vós sabeis o caminho para onde eu vou. 5 Disse-lhe Tomé: Senhor, não sabemos para onde vais; como saber o caminho? 6 Respondeu-lhe Jesus: Eu sou o caminho, e a verdade, e a vida; ninguém vem ao Pai senão por mim. 7 Se vós me tivésseis conhecido, conheceríeis também a meu Pai. Desde agora o conheceis e o tendes visto. 8 Replicou-lhe Filipe: Senhor, mostra-nos o Pai, e isso nos basta. 9 Disse-lhe Jesus: Filipe, há tanto tempo estou convosco, e não me tens conhecido? Quem me vê a mim vê o Pai; como dizes tu: Mostra-nos o Pai? 10 Não crês que eu estou no Pai e que o Pai está em mim? As palavras que eu vos digo não as digo por mim mesmo; mas o Pai, que permanece em mim, faz as suas obras. 11 Crede-me que estou no Pai, e o Pai, em mim; crede ao menos por causa das mesmas obras. 12 Em verdade, em verdade vos digo que aquele que crê em mim fará também as obras que eu faço e outras maiores fará, porque eu vou para junto do Pai. 13 E tudo quanto pedirdes em meu nome, isso farei, a fim de que o Pai seja glorificado no Filho. 14 Se me pedirdes alguma coisa em meu nome, eu o farei. 15 Se me amais, guardareis os meus mandamentos.

Jesus promete outro Consolador

16 E eu rogarei ao Pai, e ele vos dará outro Consolador, a fim de que esteja para sempre convosco, 17 o Espírito da verdade, que o mundo não pode receber, porque não o vê, nem o conhece; vós o conheceis, porque ele habita convosco e estará em vós.

18 Não vos deixarei órfãos, voltarei para vós outros. 19 Ainda por um pouco, e o mundo não me verá mais; vós, porém, me vereis; porque eu vivo, vós também vivereis. 20 Naquele dia, vós conhecereis que eu estou em meu Pai, e vós, em mim, e eu, em vós. 21 Aquele que tem os meus mandamentos e os guarda, esse é o que me ama; e aquele que me ama será amado por meu Pai, e eu também o amarei e me manifestarei a ele. 22 Disse-lhe Judas, não o Iscariotes: Donde procede, Senhor, que estás para manifestar-te a nós e não ao mundo? 23 Respondeu Jesus: Se alguém me ama, guardará a minha palavra; e meu Pai o amará, e viremos para ele e faremos nele morada. 24 Quem não me ama não guarda as minhas palavras; e a palavra que estais ouvindo não é minha, mas do Pai, que me enviou.

25 Isto vos tenho dito, estando ainda convosco; 26 mas o Consolador, o Espírito Santo, a quem o Pai enviará em meu nome, esse vos ensinará todas as coisas e vos fará lembrar de tudo o que vos tenho dito. 27 Deixo-vos a paz, a minha paz vos dou; não vo-la dou como a dá o mundo. Não se turbe o vosso coração, nem se atemorize. 28 Ouvistes que eu vos disse: vou e volto para junto de vós. Se me amásseis, alegrar-vos-íeis de que eu vá para o Pai, pois o Pai é maior do que eu. 29 Disse-vos agora, antes que aconteça, para que, quando acontecer, vós creiais. 30 Já não falarei muito convosco, porque aí vem o príncipe do mundo; e ele nada tem em mim; 31 contudo, assim procedo para que o mundo saiba que eu amo o Pai e que faço como o Pai me ordenou. Levantai-vos, vamo-nos daqui.

1 Let not your heart be troubled: 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; for I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 4 And whither I go, ye know the way. 5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7 If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and dost thou not know me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; how sayest thou, Show us the Father? 10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his 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 the 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 anything in my name, that will I do. 15 If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever, 17 even the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him not, neither knoweth him: ye know him; for he abideth with you, and shall be in you. 18 I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you. 19 Yet a little while, and the world beholdeth me no more; but ye behold me: because I live, ye shall live also. 20 In 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 unto him. 22 Judas (not Iscariot) saith unto him, Lord, what is come to pass 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 word: 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 words: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s who sent me.

25 These things have I spoken unto you, while yet abiding with you. 26 But the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I 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 fearful. 28 Ye heard how I said to you, I go away, and I come unto you. If ye loved me, ye would have rejoiced, because I go unto the Father: for the 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 may believe. 30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world cometh: and he 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.

1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God "; believe also in me.

2 My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.

4 You know the way to the place where I am going."

5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"

6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

7 If you really know me, you will know "my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."

8 Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."

9 Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?

10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.

11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.

12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.

13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.

15 "If you love me, keep my commands.

16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever —

17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be "in you.

18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.

20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.

21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them."

22 Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, "But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?"

23 Jesus replied, "Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.

24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.

25 "All this I have spoken while still with you.

26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.

27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

28 "You heard me say, 'I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.

29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe.

30 I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold over me,

31 but he comes so that the world may learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me. "Come now; let us leave.
