John 14

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.

2 In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you?

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

4 And you all have knowledge of where I am going, and of the way to it.

5 Thomas said, Lord, we have no knowledge of where you are going; how may we have knowledge of the way?

6 Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.

7 If you had knowledge of me, you would have knowledge of my Father: you have knowledge of him now and have seen him.

8 Philip said to him, Lord, let us see the Father, and we have need of nothing more.

9 Jesus said to him, Philip, have I been with you all this time, and still you have no knowledge of me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. Why do you say, Let us see the Father?

10 Have you not faith that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you, I say not from myself: but the Father who is in me all the time does his works.

11 Have faith that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me: at least, have faith in me because of what I do.

12 Truly I say to you, He who puts his faith in me will do the very works which I do, and he will do greater things than these, because I am going to my Father.

13 And whatever request you make in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may have glory in the Son.

14 If you make any request to me in my name, I will do it.

15 If you have love for me, you will keep my laws.

16 And I will make prayer to the Father and he will give you another Helper to be with you for ever,

17 Even the Spirit of true knowledge. That Spirit the world is not able to take to its heart because it sees him not and has no knowledge of him: but you have knowledge of him, because he is ever with you and will be in you.

18 I will not let you be without a friend: I am coming to you.

19 A little time longer, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me; and you will be living because I am living.

20 At that time it will be clear to you that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I in you.

21 He who has my laws and keeps them, he it is who has love for me: and he who has love for me will be loved by my Father, and I will have love for him and will let myself be seen clearly by him.

22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, How is it that you will let yourself be seen clearly by us and not by the world?

23 Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.

24 He who has no love for me does not keep my words; and the word which you are hearing is not my word but the Father's who sent me.

25 I have said all this to you while I am still with you.

26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will be your teacher in all things and will put you in mind of everything I have said to you.

27 May peace be with you; my peace I give to you: I give it not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled; let it be without fear.

28 Keep in mind how I said to you, I go away and come to you again. If you had love for me you would be glad, because I am going to the Father: for the Father is greater than I.

29 And now I have given you word of it before it comes, so that, when it comes, you may have faith.

30 After this I will not say much to you, because the ruler of this world comes: and he has no power over me;

31 But he comes so that the world may see that I have love for the Father, and that I am doing as I am ordered by the Father. Get up, and let us go.

1 "Do not be worried and upset," Jesus told them. "Believe in God and believe also in me.

2 There are many rooms in my Father's house, and I am going to prepare a place for you. I would not tell you this if it were not so.

3 And after I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to myself, so that you will be where I am.

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

5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going; so how can we know the way to get there?"

6 Jesus answered him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one goes to the Father except by me.

7 Now that you have known me," he said to them, "you will know my Father also, and from now on you do know him and you have seen him."

8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father; that is all we need."

9 Jesus answered, "For a long time I have been with you all; yet you do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. Why, then, do you say, "Show us the Father'?

10 Do you not believe, Philip, that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I have spoken to you," Jesus said to his disciples, "do not come from me. The Father, who remains in me, does his own work.

11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. If not, believe because of the things I do.

12 I am telling you the truth: those who believe in me will do what I do - yes, they will do even greater things, because I am going to the Father.

13 And I will do whatever you ask for in my name, so that the Father's glory will be shown through the Son.

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

15 "If you love me, you will obey my commandments.

16 I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, who will stay with you forever.

17 He is the Spirit, who reveals the truth about God. The world cannot receive him, because it cannot see him or know him. But you know him, because he remains with you and is in you.

18 "When I go, you will not be left all alone; I will come back to you.

19 In a little while the world will see me no more, but you will see me; and because I live, you also will live.

20 When that day comes, you will know that I am in my Father and that you are in me, just as I am in you.

21 "Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. My Father will love those who love me; I too will love them and reveal myself to them."

22 Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, "Lord, how can it be that you will reveal yourself to us and not to the world?"

23 Jesus answered him, "Those who love me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and my Father and I will come to them and live with them.

24 Those who do not love me do not obey my teaching. And the teaching you have heard is not mine, but comes from the Father, who sent me.

25 "I have told you this while I am still with you.

26 The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and make you remember all that I have told you.

27 "Peace is what I leave with you; it is my own peace that I give you. I do not give it as the world does. Do not be worried and upset; do not be afraid.

28 You heard me say to you, "I am leaving, but I will come back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father; for he is greater than I.

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

30 I cannot talk with you much longer, because the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me,

31 but the world must know that I love the Father; that is why I do everything as he commands me. "Come, let us go from this place.
