14  Kei pouri o koutou ngakau: e whakapono ana koutou ki te Atua, whakapono hoki ki ahau.

He maha nga nohonga i roto i te whare o toku Matua: me he kahore, kua korerotia e ahau ki a koutou. Ka haere hoki ahau ki te mea i tetahi wahi hei tukunga ake mo koutou.

A ki te haere ahau ki te mea wahi hei tukunga ake mo koutou, ka haere mai ano ahau, a ka tango i a koutou ki ahau; kia noho ai hoki koutou ki te wahi e noho ai ahau.

Na e matau ana koutou ki te huarahi ki te wahi e haere atu nei ahau.

Na ka mea a Tamati ki a ia, E te Ariki, kahore matou e matau ki te wahi e haere na koe; me pehea ka matau ai matou ki te huarahi?

Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ko ahau te huarahi, te pono, te ora: e kore rawa tetahi tangata e haere ake ki te Matua, ki te kahore ahau.

Me i matau koutou ki ahau, kua matau ano ki toku matua; na i enei ake wa ka mohio koutou ki a ia, kua kite ano hoki i a ia.

Ka mea a Piripi ki a ia, E te Ariki, whakakitea te Matua ki a matou, a ka tatu o matou ngakau.

Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Roa noa atu toku noho ki a koutou, a kahore ano koe i matau noa ki ahau, e Piripi? Ko ia kua kite i ahau kua kite hoki i te Matua; he aha koe ka mea ai, Whakakitea mai te Matua ki a matou?

10 E kore ianei koe e whakapono, ko ahau kei roto i te Matua, ko te Matua kei roto i ahau? ko nga kupu e korero nei ahau ki a koutou, ehara i te korero naku ake; engari na te Matua e noho ana i roto i ahau, ko ia te mea ana i nga mahi.

11 Whakapono mai ki ahau, kei roto ahau i te Matua, ko te Matua hoki kei roto i ahau: ki te kahore, whakaaro ki nga mahi, ka whakapono ai ki ahau.

12 He pono, he pono taku e mea atu nei ki a koutou, Ki te whakapono tetahi ki ahau, ko nga mahi e mea nei ahau, e meinga ano e ia; a nui atu i enei ana e mea ai; no te mea e haere ana ahau ki toku Matua.

13 A ko ta koutou e inoi ai i runga i toku ingoa, e meatia tenei e ahau, kia whai kororia ai te Matua i te Tama.

14 Ki te inoia e koutou tetahi mea i ahau i runga i toku ingoa, maku e whakamana.

15 Ki te aroha koutou ki ahau, kia mau ki aku ture.

16 Ka inoi ahau ki te Matua, a mana e hoatu ki a koutou tetahi atu Kaiwhakamarie, hei noho tonu ki a koutou.

17 Ko te Wairua o te pono; e kore nei e riro i te ao, no te mea e kore e kite i a ia, e kore ano e matau ki a ia; kei a koutou hoki ia e noho ana, a ka noho ano i roto i a koutou.

18 E kore koutou e waiho pani e ahau: e haere mai ano ahau ki a koutou.

19 Taro ake a heoi ano kitenga o te ao i ahau; ko koutou ia e kite i ahau: e ora ana ahau, ka ora ano koutou.

20 A taua ra koutou matau ai kei roto ahau i toku Matua, ko koutou ano kei roto i ahau, me ahau hoki kei roto i a koutou.

21 Ko te tangata kei a ia nei aku ture, e puritia ana hoki e ia, ko ia te aroha ana ki ahau: ki te aroha tetahi ki ahau, ka arohaina ia e toku Matua, a ka aroha ahau ki a ia, ka whakaatu i ahau ki a ia.

22 Ka mea a Hura ki a ia, haunga a Ikariote, E te Ariki, he pehea i whakaatu ai koe i a koe ki a matou, a kahore ki te ao?

23 Ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, Ki te aroha tetahi ki ahau, e puritia e ia taku kupu: a ka arohaina ia e toku Matua, ka haere atu maua ki a ia, ka noho tonu ki a ia.

24 Ki te kahore tetahi e aroha ki ahau, e kore e puritia e ia aku kupu: na ehara i ahau ake te kupu e rongo nei koutou, engari na te Matua i tonoa mai ai ahau.

25 Kua korerotia nei e ahau enei mea ki a koutou, i ahau e noho nei i a koutou.

26 Na, ko te kaiwhakamarie, ara ko te Wairua Tapu, e tonoa mai e te Matua i runga i toku ingoa, mana koutou e whakaako ki nga mea katoa, mana koutou e whakamahara ki nga mea katoa kua korerotia nei e ahau ki a koutou.

27 He rangimarie taku e waiho nei ki a koutou, tenei taku rangimarie te hoatu nei e ahau ki a koutou: e kore e rite ki ta te ao hoatu taku hoatu ki a koutou. Kei pouri o koutou ngakau, kei mataku.

28 Kua rongo na koutou ki taku i mea ai ki a koutou, E haere ana ahau, a ka hoki mai ano ki a koutou. Me i aroha koutou ki ahau, kua hari koutou, noku i mea, E haere ana ahau ki te Matua: he nui ake hoki toku Matua i ahau.

29 Na kua korero nei ahau ki a koutou: i te mea kahore ano i puta, mo te puta rawa mai, ka whakapono koutou.

30 E kore e maha ake aku korero ki a koutou: e haere mai ana hoki te ariki o tenei ao, kahore hoki ana wahi i roto i ahau;

31 Otira kia matau ai te ao, e aroha ana ahau ki te Matua; ko ta te Matua ano i whakahau mai ai ki ahau, ko taku tena e mea nei. Whakatika, ka haere atu tatou i konei.

Jesus Comforts His Disciples

14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled.(A) You believe(B) in God[a];(C) believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there(D) to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back(E) and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.(F) You know the way to the place where I am going.”

Jesus the Way to the Father

Thomas(G) said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”

Jesus answered, “I am(H) the way(I) and the truth(J) and the life.(K) No one comes to the Father except through me.(L) If you really know me, you will know[b] my Father as well.(M) From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”

Philip(N) said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”

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.(O) 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?(P) The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority.(Q) 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.(R) 12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes(S) in me will do the works I have been doing,(T) and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask(U) 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.

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit

15 “If you love me, keep my commands.(V) 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate(W) to help you and be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth.(X) The world cannot accept him,(Y) because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[c] in you. 18 I will not leave you as orphans;(Z) I will come to you.(AA) 19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me.(AB) Because I live, you also will live.(AC) 20 On that day(AD) you will realize that I am in my Father,(AE) and you are in me, and I am in you.(AF) 21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me.(AG) The one who loves me will be loved by my Father,(AH) and I too will love them and show myself to them.”

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

23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching.(AK) My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.(AL) 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.(AM)

25 “All this I have spoken while still with you. 26 But the Advocate,(AN) the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name,(AO) will teach you all things(AP) and will remind you of everything I have said to you.(AQ) 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.(AR) I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled(AS) and do not be afraid.

28 “You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’(AT) If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father,(AU) for the Father is greater than I.(AV) 29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe.(AW) 30 I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world(AX) 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.(AY)

“Come now; let us leave.
