John 14:27-29
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
I Leave You My Peace. Do Not Be Troubled. I Am Returning To The Father
27 “I leave you peace. I give you My peace. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid[a]. 28 You heard that I said to you, ‘I am going, and I am coming to you’. If you were loving[b] Me, you would have rejoiced that I am going to the Father, because[c] the Father is greater than Me. 29 And now I have told you before it takes place, in order that when it takes place, you may believe.
