John 1:1–5

The Word Became Flesh

1 aIn the beginning bwas cthe Word, and the Word was dwith God, and ethe Word was God. 2 fHe was in the beginning with God. 3 gAll things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 hIn him was life,1 and the life was the ilight of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.


John 14:10–30

10 Do you not believe that jI am in the Father and the Father is in me? kThe words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, lor else believe on account of the works themselves.

12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and mgreater works than these will he do, because nI am going to the Father. 13 oWhatever you ask in my name, this I will do, pthat the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me1 anything in my name, I will do it.

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit

15 q“If you rlove me, you will keep my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will sgive you another tHelper,2 to be with you forever, 17 even the uSpirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be3 in you.

18 “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19 vYet a little while and wthe world will see me no more, but you will see me. xBecause I live, you also will live. 20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and yyou in me, and zI in you. 21 Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And ahe who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will bkeep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our chome with him. 24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me.

25 “These things I have spoken to you dwhile I am still with you. 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, ehe will teach you all things and bring to your fremembrance all that I have said to you. 27 gPeace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. hLet not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. 28 You heard me say to you, i‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I am going to the Father, for the Father is jgreater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for kthe ruler of this world is coming. He has no claim on me,
